VPN usage in South Korea and Saudi Arabia in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Its mostly just anime, movies, TV and game torrents. I use VPN to pass geo-blocking as well.

VPN usage in South Korea and Saudi Arabia (sh.itjust.works)
 

I may go for short term work in either South Korea or Saudi for a few months. Does anybody have any idea, how safe it is to use a VPN as a foreigner in these countries? Worse case scenario, can I use a VPN in a Azure VM and scp torrent downloaded files or something?

Is there a wig that doesn't heat your head? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago

I'm bald and have shaved my head clean and been like that for a while. After shaving for first time, the first issue was the sun heating up my head like an egg , so I started wearing normal caps. Then the second issue started, I sweat a lot , so the normal caps trap all that humidity and my head feels like a sauna and the cap starts smelling bad very fast.

So I switched to caps made of breathable fabric. It was a game changer for me, its the best of both worlds. Covers the head as well as allows moisture to be evaporated. You could give it a try.

Does Lemmy have an active VPN community? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Will these work with torrent downloads and such? For regular browsing it will work I guess, but won't downloads be really really throttled. Please forgive me if I'm asking dumb things.

What if I use a VPN inside a cloud VM and scp the files? Would that raise any flags?

Loud and powerful sneezers, have you figured out a way to tame your sneezes? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

That's a good suggestion as well.

Makes sense. Gonna try this the next time..

Edit : Just sneezed. There's a problem. Just as I'm about to sneeze I breath in. I'll need to use a lot of force in a short time to exhale any air. Am I doing it wrong?

I sneeze really loudly and powerful and often I can't control it. What makes it worse is, its often sprays a lot of saliva as well. I'm safe most of the time if I can get to my handkerchief or tissue in time. But there are times I have no other option but to let it out. Has anyone found a way to tame it and make it milder or easier to control.

How come android headunits in a car boot up so fast despite being very under powered compared to phones these days ? (sh.itjust.works)
 

My car's android unit has some quad core processor , and it instantly boots up and reaches the home screen where as my phone takes almost 30 seconds or a minute to reach the home screen despite having much better hardware.

Does mini 12V DC diaphram water pumps like this get really hot after running for 5 min? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm trying to use it as a water pump for my aquarium. I'm using a 6V 4.5AH battery with a DC step up convertor to power the pump. After about 5 minutes it gets really hot. Is this expected?
