  • Neither. A VPN is a tool. It’s useful for bypassing geo-restrictions, allows you to act as a local device in the server’s local network which is really useful, and can have a benefit to privacy when paired with other tools.

    A lot of VPN ads however are overblown with the “VPNs keep you safe online” and “Don’t use the internet without a VPN”, these are dishonest marketing practices which should be seen as a massive red flag.
















  • I’d ignore the check engine light, it isn’t a problem, if his engine ends up dying, it won’t kill anyone. Rule of thumb is yellow warning lights (check engine, or washer fluid) can be ignored, red warning lights (like breaks) shouldn’t be ignored.

    Driving dangerously is inexcusable no matter the economy. Please report him. People can die because of this kind of behavior and we as a society shouldn’t tolerate it. When you operate a multi-ton machine moving at high speed, you have an immense responsibility for the safety of everyone around you.


  • Yes. I highly recommend it. You don’t need to get a high end gaming PC or spend a lot of money on new titles. You can go to websites like GOG (DRM-Free games), or Steam (more mainstream platform with more games) to pick up some older games at massive discounts, and they are likely to run well on your normal PC with minimal spending to test the waters. If you enjoy it and want to spend more money for a better experience with newer games, that’s entirely optional.

    What kind of games are you interested in?
