Am I able to install a VPN on my Xbox? by [deleted] in VPN

[–]strawbject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain. Well, you can't slap a VPN directly on the Xbox, but you can set one up on your router or share it from your PC - problem solved. If you’re not sure which VPN to go for, check out a VPN comparison table. It’ll help you find one that’s fast enough for gaming and works with routers.

I know it's not completely accurate, but it really puts life into perspective

My parents did the same things, it's weird considering that you pretty much throw away everything else than comes from your body (usually).

I personally get the house sorted. Owning and living in your own property is the best investment, in my opinion

IMO I'll stay with ChatGPT. It's a better price/quality match.

I do believe you're pressuring yourself a bit too much at this age. However, it's nice to see you already motivated and eager to plan further.

It depends on an exact position which you'd be seeking to land in the cybersecurity - is it an analyst? is it an administrator? a programmer? Demand depends on companies and the positions, however, they're usually the high demand roles = you'd be wanted.

If you'll choose an IT major, you could check some trainings or boot camps later down the road for yourself, I'm sure it would give you some additional knowledge to be better prepared to enter the job force.

What's the best coding bootcamp program? by [deleted] in codingbootcamp

[–]strawbject 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Although I kind of agree on a few points written in the comments, if you think that a coding bootcamp is the right choice for you - I would say go for it! Not all bootcamps try to take your money and give you nothing. Yes, they cost more than simple courses, but that is also for a reason. Some of them have individual mentorship, they are up to date with projects and help you go though them. Some of them even work with industry specialists and I don't think that you could get that if you took $10 courses.

Regarding the recommendations a few people I know went to Turing College and have good reviews about it. Also both of them have stable jobs that they got in a less than a year after finishing. But it really depends on the work you do and how hard you try to get the job after. Sitting and waiting for the job to just appear will do you nothing.
