Yuck. What a dog act by a slimy company. Glad I took my banking elsewhere.

Same here, I would rarely see a satellite and mostly only during dusk. Two nights ago I was participating in a star gazing activity as par of a birthday party and it's busy up there now

I use Aussie Broadband for on HFC, and their customer service team is beyond amazing and worth their price a few times over. I could not recommend another ISP in Australia as much as I would recommend Aussie.

Not only is the service team based in Australia, but they're knowledgeable and persistent. When I have an issue, they will call me back to check that everything is working correctly and you really feel the person you are talking to is invested in helping you. I'm able to talk to them about things like cgnat etc and they're all familiar with the technical aspects of their service to do what I need. I know if I were to call many of the other large ISPs, I wouldn't get much further than them telling me to turn my modem off and on again.

In fact (and in contrast), last year I had to deal with another famous Australian ISP because my roaming plan stopped working in London. After being escalated, I got someone from overseas on the phone who talked down to me, accused me of lying about my phone's configuration and claiming to be THE EXPERT OF ROAMING (despite being patently wrong about how ITU codes work). It was resolved two weeks later when said nameless ISP found the bug and fixed it for however many users.

Like most things, it depends on your jurisdiction and the policies of your ISP. But as a general rule, yes, you should take steps to hide your IP.

Probably a good case example is to look at how many people in your area were sued for torrenting. For example, the rights holders to Dallas Buyer’s Club famously went nuclear on torrenters, so maybe start by searching that. Of course none of this is legal advice.

PIA is pretty reliable in my experience and their three year plan is quite affordable.

For what its worth, I've been using this container for years and have never had any issues https://haugene.github.io/docker-transmission-openvpn/

Hahaha. She’s not wrong.

I think I might have seen a build or two even back then. However, what I need from a mobile app isn't to provide all of emacs, but rather just satisfy a few key use cases. Providing everything comes at the cost of usability, which is a key requirement for a mobile app. Really I just need to capture notes and tasks and see task lists, but trying to use the mobile emacs in the middle of a conversation, commuting, or grabbing coffee isn't ideal.

There were a couple of 3rd party apps that were designed for orgmode, but after I trialled, but they all fell short for me.

Even if it had the best mobile app now however, I wouldn't go back to emacs. Each to their own, but I've become way more aligned with the unix philosophy of "do one thing, and do it well", where as I see emacs more as "lets do as much as we can in one app". IMO Ofc.

I wonder if this is some play by her to get trump to swoop in and save her.

I went the ohterway with Emacs -> Logseq -> Obsidian, but with several things in between. Emacs isn't for me, I did give it a red hot go and coded off it for a good year or two about 10-15 years ago.

HOWEVER, I have to agree. Emac's Orgmode is first class and I've never been as satisfied with a task app since. However, at the time I was using it, mobile support was pretty much nonexistent, and I was missing vim too much, so I eventually abandoned it.

Now i just use a selfhosted instance of memos, which is sparse on its feature set, but works well for me.

If you try to define abstract nouns, they lose their magical ability of allowing governments to do whatever the fuck they want.

Anyone who has set foot on a university campus should see this for what it is. You would like to think such a blatant attempt to silence dissent under the banner of antisemitism would hurt their cause.
