    Question Which VPN do you guys use, and how well do you like it?

    That's not true, NordVPN is very strict about their no logs policy, they even do 3rd party audits to ensure they are compliant. I think Nord is a decent choice, it's one of the market leaders for a reason.

    News Encrypted folder bounty by NordLocker

    I saw that NordLocker is doing a bounty program on one of their encrypted folders https://nordlocker.com/locker-bounty/ Pretty ballsy move from a security company - it could show how secure they are by not getting cracked any time soon... Or it will be hilarious if it gets hacked in a couple of...

    Discussion Is file encryption an important part of security?

    Hey guys. Lately I've been concerned about the security of the files on my laptop. I have it protected with a password but sometimes I feel like that would not be enough if someone gained physical access to my device. I've heard about file encryption but I wanted to get some opinions first...

    NOW CLOSED ; List some movies you've watched recently. Theatre, rental, TV... and give a */10

    A bit late to the party but I don't care. I watched The Mandalorian a couple of weeks ago and it was honestly pretty fun. It is Star Wars so it's kind of lighthearted, rather predictable and by no means groundbreaking. But the atmosphere was great, I liked the space travelling and adventuring...

    When did you start computer gaming?

    Started in the late 1990's and early 2000's on the pc. My dad used to fix computers for other people so our main pc was free most of the time. Anyway I played mainly with my older brother (more often I just watched how he played because I didn't know how to play otherwise). Mostly we played...

    What did you buy for Black Friday 2019?

    Last year I grabbed Nord vpn's BF deal. I can honestly say that it was a perfect choice, so this year I'm planning to buy it as a gift for my brother (not long ago they launched a file encryption app Nordlocker, so now you get it for free), here's the link...

    NordVPN hacked.

    Everyone is in full panic mode over this breach (which shouldn't even be called a hack) even though it's only one server out of thousands. I do agree that they could have communicated it better but it's good to see that they're planning all of these substantial improvements to their service...

    Info Vivaldi 2.9 Browser Released!

    Anyone use this browser? I'm more of a Firefox guy but the features of Vivaldi sound pretty interesting, would love to hear some feedback and opinions about it.

    Looking for a new game to play (online, mostly)

    A recent discovery of mine is Helldivers - it had a sale on Steam and I heard good things about it (it's from the makers of Magicka) so I gave it a shot. It's a top down co-op alien shooter. It's really fun, not perfect though, the camera acts kind of weird, but it's great with friends...

    VPN recommendation?

    I've opted to go with Nordvpn - they're fairly cheap, seem to respect your privacy and work fine for the various use cases that I come across (Netflix, getting around bans and geo restrictions). It also looks like they might raising their prices soon (at least that's what it says on their...

    The European Parliament has voted in favour of Article 13

    I don't think it's going to be normal if the EU can't watch esports... I think they'll have to find a better solution for sure or maybe make a separate platform just for esports. But twitch is also a big brand so they could definitely reach out to devs and work something out. Big streamers too

    How do you make yourself fall back to sleep?

    I've been trying out this method and it seems to be quite cool though it does take some practice and well you have remember to actually do it. I also do some exercise after work and it also helps because I feel really tired in the evening and have no issue falling asleep, occasionally my mind...

    The European Parliament has voted in favour of Article 13

    Damn, I hope things don't go too extreme on this front because I really don't want to lose out on cool content from Europe. Hard to say what's going to happen and how the websites will actually filter the content or just block everyone from Europe. I'm especially curious about twitch because...

    What are you playing now? [Chat + Discussions]

    Well, Destiny 2 got boring fast. I was playing without the expansions so I could only play till level 20 and my buddy also stopped. I guess I prefer warframe, more baddies to shoot and more stuff to do. Been also playing Heroes of the Storm a bit, lol and dota are too much for me with all the...
