I’m Thinking About Getting a VPN. Need Some Advice in the forum Computers and Technology 2 weeks ago
Never did think of speed as an issue.
Which subscription should I get?

No problems. Just downloaded the install file, paid for the service, setup my account info, and blast off.

I never even thought of calling them, just purchased online. For someone like myself with zero computer skills, it was painless to install and set up. You can install it on up to 6 devices too. The only downside to VPN’s is google, YouTube etc. will pester you to prove you are not a bot all the time. I think Duck Duck Go doesn’t do this though.

So is Surfshark, which I use. Just need to watch for specials, like a big discount and free months for 2 year sub. Stuff like that.

I’ve thought of this off and on for several months now.
Now I’m getting serious.
Looked at Nord but there is no phone number-at least I didn’t see one.
So if someone has insight on getting a VPN subscription, I’m all ears.
Thanks.

first we just needed a password.
then multiple passwords. then it had to be a hard to crack password. then 2 factor authentication.
now a password manager for all the passwords (which means another anonymous dealer with our multiple account information that can be compromised) —
next our fingerprints and blood and…

Keith Richards’ playlist. Interesting mix. Everything from jazz & blues to Gram Parsons & Warren Zevon.

I’m a Devil, not an artist, so I can’t personally endorse how easy it is to use or anything like that, but it looks like it’s as good or better than any of the expensive retail software, and it’s available for Windows, Linux, Mac, and even Chromebook, so there’s no reason anybody couldn’t give it a shot.

There used to be some software that incorporated everything and strove to close to be close to one click, but I haven’t used anything like that in ages. Lol, makes me wonder if I still have the clip I edited from the TV show about the new Bionic Woman. Katee Sackhoff was the guest starring evil bionic woman, and it was a…[Read more]

It’s mostly digital anymore, so a good strong CPU and lots of RAM. Software: Adobe Premiere or AfterEffects can be rented by the month. It you can find a copy of Black Magic Digital Fusion version 9 of so, it’s free. This is on PC. The Adobe stuff is available for Mac as well.

Or software, or website. I have no idea how other people edit their stuff, but I’m looking at doing the same myself.
What do you recommend?
All suggestions welcome.
I’m interested in something simple, but quality based. I used to edit “video tape” when I worked in a TV station, and same for audio. So I have a grasp of what/how the process…[Read more]

Groove Salad, Seven Inch Soul, Sonic Universe, which has a lot of progressive Jazz, plus some others, are bookmarked within Winamp.
But you can stream directly from the site using their player, or whatever you have installed.

somafm Commercial-free, Listener-supported Radio
(I also have it on my roku, and it’s free there, too, yet still worth a donation)But also these choices:
Bandcamp (It’s mostly for downloading, but you can stream the latest albums by genre on the app, or listen to whole albums on the site, but only three times before it starts to bug…[Read more]
