Just because our side sucks it doesn’t preclude the fact their side is much worse.

I don’t think ProtonVPN works in China, last I can recall. I live in China and use Mullvad and Astrill.

It’s just an old lame internet joke.

Yah me too, for my small company per seat pricing is really painful. For some services we just have one account and share access; only one person logs in at a time and tells everyone else when they’re done.

He lies and twists facts constantly. Plus he’s annoying as hell, for whatever that’s worth.

Oh ok thank you, well I guess I’ll continue enjoying content from both.

Hehe, he won’t know, it’s a messy method. The experiment is “does the kitchen sink approach of a 100 zany things do any good or not.” I’d guess not, actually,

I agree with you and don’t know why people pile on against you. Is the guy cringey? Sure. Would it be more useful to humanity if he just donated his money to existing and more reputable research? For sure. But he’s just tinkering on himself, which is his right, and shares what he learns.

Is he misguided and a quack who may not learn anything? Maybe, but sometimes it’s the crazy folks who go against the grain that stumble on some good ideas.

Also, if anything he tries is interesting, yes of course he’s just a sample size of 1 - the idea is that other people could research it further.

(I think him roping other people in like his kid isn’t great)

Yeah I don’t know enough about him, just glances at bits of content over time, but I agree. History is full of such over enthusiastic tinkerers who subject themselves to ridiculous experiments but every now and then they learn something useful. It is cringeworthy, though, and not ok if foisted on others.

Astounding fascism, fuck Trump.

I only tangentially see 196 content on Lemmy, I’m old, barely understand it but enjoy it; can someone explain like I’m 5 what’s happened here to cause 196 to change to onehundredninetysix?
