This has got to be one of the saddest replies possible. We have everything to gain from it. If we're unwilling or unable to explore the parts of existence that scare us we cannot possibly come up woth new things. It is the very essence

I think 100r reminds me of the thing we're missing the most nowaydays - bravery. We're afraid to take chances, to explore ideas, to take a slightly harder path or to explore difficult challenges. We're risk averse and we'

I have most things that are made nowadays. The arguments for the status quo "you're getting it cheaper, it will actually last quite a bit, it's greener" etc are not really valid. Even if an item is cheaper as a one off p

I think this needs to be approached with a throwaway mentality. You setup a proxy, it gets blocked, you setup a new one. I do agree that we cannot know who is reporting them or who is leaking the proxy addresses and ideally it would be grea

Signal is setting up proxies so users in Iran using Signal could update their proxy settings in the app to bypass the block for that at least. Not sure to what extent things are being blocked, but if you can get connections to SOME outside
