The servers are very locked down, so I’m sure that’s part of our compliance requirements. I haven’t looked into fixing it because I just wrote a script to hit Enter every 10 minutes to keep it alive.

I’ve had nohup fail to keep things running after my session ended quite frequently. It’s like it just goes to the next step in the process then gives up.

An ISP is absolutely going to be able to differentiate location based on public IP. They assign blocks of IPs to geographic locations for use with DHCP in that region. You can go to whatsmyip.com and see your geographic location yourself.

There are practical examples of this that you likely experience every day. Steam has geographic restrictions and pricing based on location, streaming services geolock their offerings, etc.

It’s not costly to implement a blacklist.

The voter suppression wasn’t as rampant in 2016 as it was this year.

The people trying to leave are the people who voted for the other party.

Lame, come back when it’s running doom

The suffering is intentional.

Yeah, when you have the VPN running all of your external traffic should go through it. It starts to get complicated when you only want a specific container/user to use/bypass the VPN.

Likely the same deal with the platter drives too.

You can buy a $400 900GB HDD, so OPs price gap is actually pretty narrow.
