Yep. It has some dedicated nodes that support peer to peer file-sharing and others that don't officially, but often work fine.

probably good to add that if you just want to use it with a browser their browser extension works pretty well. I think it's more of a proxy…

It works ok, but just seems less reliable, particularly for video streaming where you need a minimum level consistent bitrate. It also has…

Good deal, but PureVPN isn't a great VPN. Nord/Surfshark are much better.
It's regularly $34 cashback if you book for a year in advance

L3tstaxth1s on [AKL] Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Cancelling Headphones $249.99 @ Costco (Membership Required)
I have the xm5 but my ears get really hot wearing them. Are the xm4's any better in this regard?
felixfurtak commented on Home Use NAS - Will This PC Be Enough?
I run plex, with home assistant, open media vault, jellyfin and tailscale on an intel N150 mini-pc and that's plenty fast enough streaming…
Sanya looks interesting ... what route/airline do you fly to get $850 return? How long does the flight take ?
Stuart Island is nice this time of year.

Gentle as a cloud... ok. Not sure that clouds are all that gentle given that they generally near frozen water vapour.

Yeah, got a fold 7 512gb for ~$800 last week on EPP. 50% off with ~$1000 trade in on a fold 6. Pretty good deal for an almost 2 year old…

jackvdbuk on LG OLED EVO C4 48" TV (New) + JBL Bar300 2.0 260W Soundbar (Grade 1) $1,500 Delivered @ Talk is Cheap
Definitely worth getting, just for Bluey
Delete the Temu app on your phone and use the Shopback app. Delete items from your cart beforehand. Works for me 100%

C2 with over 4000hrs of use. No obvious burn in. Not much gaming use, but probably about half of that use is watching HDR TV shows.
Also this great bathroom wall art 601099807426132
Really sharp julienne vegetable peeler. Nice quality. Solid stainless steel 605905412261204
I like the electric dumpling maker that I bought last time the offer was on. Make a big batch and then freeze. Works out cheaper (and…

Pretty crap deal if you have to use contactless and pay a surcharge just to get some shitty discount.
felixfurtak commented on Development of an App
Sure thing. You just need 1 good software developer for about a year. Starting price would be maybe $150k.

The yearly large plan is better value when it's discounted by 40% since you typically get 15Gb for $16.50/m. But this plan isn't bad if…
