  • When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called “the People’s Stick.”
  • If you took the most ardent revolutionary, vested him in absolute power, within a year he would be worse than the Tsar himself.

  • Getting into the weeds a bit here lol. I do use a VPN on my personal PC, but on the media server where I have my *arr stack, I’ve found that using a VPN, even with split tunneling configured, allows certain TV websites to detect I’m using a VPN and block streaming content. If I wasn’t using a DNS proxy, or if I ran the stack on a separate server, it probably wouldn’t be an issue, but I’m not so it is :p. I’ll add that if I am using only Usenet then I prefer not to run a VPN since it’s reasonably safe IMO to raw dog that content, since a VPN always has some overhead involved in terms of bandwidth and latency.
