In my opinion, it's best to use Whonix for Tor, because the Tor process and userland are in separate VMs, or separate Qubes AppVMs. There is no forwarding at all between the Whonix workstation VM and the Internet, via the gateway VM. T

I just use iptables, and allow only output via eth0/enp0s1 to the VPN server, so everything else must use tun0. Or I use pfSense VMs as VPN gateways, with outbound NAT and analogous rules. But TFA is about iOS, where none of that is po

I have nothing against small businesses, even if they're incorporated. I was a small business, in one of my careers. What I find disgusting is bailing out the wealthy, while barely helping the working class.

It's just a continuation of the trickle-down approach that's been concentrating wealth in the US for the past four decades. The US was founded in large part as a revolt against British crown corporations. And until the mid 1800s,

True. And there are probably many more of them. So altogether, inadequate testing underestimates incidence of infection, and overestimates risk of death from infection.

Not a Twitter user here, but would this delete retweets by others of your tweets? Those might include tweets that you'd most want to delete. As well as ones that you'd most want to retain, for that matter.

Thanks. Upon reflecting, I meant to say immune moderating as well as anti-inflammatory. Which is why it's become so popular for treating arthritis. I wonder about the antiviral activity, though. What I've read is about possibly fa

That's the easiest place to rinse them. I've lived with babies using cloth diapers. After changing a diaper, it went into the toilet. After settling the baby, you swish the diaper around with tongs, flush, and then repeat rinsing

Wait. I thought that hydroxychloroquine was hypothesized to protect against wet lung, as an anti-inflammatory, and not as an antiviral. Did I just make that up?

Are you arguing that the chloroquine they took, as chloroquine phosphate, is different from the chloroquine that's used to treat malaria? That's more than "a similar name". It's the same name. From what I've re

There's an important detail missing: the dose. I gather that the therapeutic dose is on the order of 500 mg/day. So did they eat 10x that, 100x that, or what?
