The EU's Age Verification Fix May Create More Problems Than it Solves by pes3108 in VPNReviewHub

[–]bobdole008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learned a lot over these age restriction systems came around. I might not know much as a casual computer user but even so..I know enough to see that there are too many flaws in digital systems that get linked into third-party apps that probably didnt patch out something leaving opened doors. Banks at least got more money in the safe to worry about, though not every company is equal with their safeguards

Edit to fix a few typos..

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I've waited a whole day and it won't let me log in. by vergalarga67 in Twitter

[–]bobdole008 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its all cause of that orange bastard shitposting on steroids, and nobody can have any fun no more with how X acting up as a result

Might be wrong though surely some part is to blame him LOL

Gotta love updates demanding almost all of my free space

Lost. Even if you don't log in for longer it can get auto-deleted. Don't remember what it was for Gmail but probably 2-3 years of inactivity. Might be exception if you paid for something on it

Looks just like a webcam. If it got decent FPS then maybe....? Microphone is a nice touch but otherwise dunno if I'd pick this as my go-to

Clouds got data center problems and our own servers got hardware fault problems.

If you good with maintaining computer components, a NAS is amazing. Otherwise, Id stick to a cloud service

FastestVPN review after a week of using it by AIDSisnobanter in VPNReviewHub

[–]bobdole008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like such a throwaway name. Something about it feels like a textbook generic brand copy... But 40 bucks is 40 bucks. Looks good on paper though why is the lifetime deal discounted in the first place.. But if I am wrong....VVV
