  • One of my earliest memories was being into Britney Spears. I was young, 10 or so. Dad was never home and I learned to like my own music on my own time without him, and I liked her music. My memory is that I was listening to it in the car, my CD of hers, and then I remember mom and dad arguing, and I don’t remember ever seeing that CD again.

    Its so funny to see all those guys, who called groups like Nsync and BSB “gay” back in middle school in the '90s, lose their fucking minds and start singing and dancing along when something like “Bye Bye Bye” comes on the jukebox at the bar.

    To be honest, I hated boy bands back then too but there’s definitely some nostalgia hearing them today.




  • I love Mullvad and used them for years, but without port forwarding, they’re not the service you want for torrenting. Some alternatives like AirVPN or ProtonVPN are better suited for that stuff.

    Before the haters jump in and tell me “it works fine fer me!” it’s only working because the user on the other end, like myself, have port forwarding set up. Since you don’t have it, you’ll never connect to anyone else like yourself nor will they be able to connect to you.

    Of course there are alternatives like streaming and Usenet but there are tradeoffs no matter what you pick.
