It still needs to pass the house. If you live under a red representative, please write and call them and let them know you do not support this legislation.

What exactly is "illegally procured" naturalization? Sounds like hogwash.

I feel a lot more hope from Mamdani than I did from Obama -- I love that the capitalist class is so upset by him; it shows what is wrong with the DNC.

Already been ashamed of my government for years. Supporting fascism abroad isn't any better than supporting it at home.

Not exactly sure, but playing with setting up your own VPN will give you an idea of it.

Essentially, the VPN is run on a remote server. When you connect to the VPN, your traffic gets masqueraded out through the remote server, and replies get natted back to you. If you tried setting up a webserver on your computer and then accessing the webserver on the VPN server IP, it wouldn't work, because the request coming in to the VPN server port would by default just reach the VPN server at that port.

This is where port forwarding comes in -- if the VPN server allows you to port forward, you can set port X on the VPN server to go to port Y on your router (which would likely also have to port forward on your router to get to your computer).

If you were intending to seed, yes.

It's certainly possible to download content after you've joined. Some might call that piracy, but I would call it fair use.

Port forwarding allows you to seed without revealing your IP address. If you seed on a VPN and you don't have port forwarding, your IP is revealed to those you seed to.

Edit -- I was wrong. You can technically seed securely behind a VPN connection, but since you can't be connected to directly behind a vpn without port forwarding, you would only be able to seed to ppl who port forward, or who can be connected to directly. You would only be able to leech from everyone else.

If everyone torrented like this (behind a VPN without port forwarding), all torrents would grind to a halt; nobody would be able to seed.

Oh, I know. But imagine, if you will, if enough people collectively decided to vote 3rd party. It's a minority of Americans who even vote at all. If a third party received the majority of votes, they would have to be put in office -- hypothetically at least.

It isn't really about his net worth. Capitalists (oligarchs) like Trump because for some reason he is the right kind of ghoul to be their tool. And police like who the oligarchs like.
