    ProtonVPN doesn't want to connect to Osaka today. :( Guess I'll have to go with Tokyo. (btw. is the search engine broken or is there really no page called "VPN" or "Virtual Private Network"?)

    Do you know any interesting onion websites? ProtonVPN has special servers for TOR. I have installed TOR Browser and connected to their network over the VPN connection. Tried out a couple onions and search engines, but they are either trash or offline. E.g. I searched for "Q-Taro" and instead of finding Q-Taro, I found websites for gun shops (probably scams) instead. There does not seem to be a proper image search either (understandable since websites on the dark web are not usually indexed like normal websites). I keep reading about a Wiki but there does not seem to be a valid URL for it.

    *sigh*...
    So, is ProtonVPN good? I'm thinking about getting the highest tier for €7.99 a month because I'll also be getting like 15 e-mail-addresses. It also offers port forwarding, or so I heard. That feature is a MUST (so Mullvad is out of the question) because I would like to self-host in the future. Any other ideas?

      Editing … It's honestly disgusting. It's just as you said - "paying through the nose for everything" is the perfect way of describing it. Nowadays you need to pay for fucking everything, even for stuff that was given for free before. Want a public IPv4? Pay up for a public IP! Want to forward ports despite being behind CG-NAT? Pay up for a VPN tunnel! Want to access adult content? Pay up for a VPN or send your fucking ID to some random company. The Internet is dying as we speak because of some shitheads in the government feeling the need to control everything. Holy shit am I mad. Take away our freedom, and it's high time for violence.

    So apparently my ISP is blocking websites now? I can't access a certain website, but it's not down. If I change my location to Amsterdam via a proxy, then it works immediately with no issues.

    Man, I can't wait to switch to the new Internet provider. Only two more months until the fiber optics is here, I hope...

      Editing … But dude, I use a VPN and I got very little to hide, I watch straight up big tits porn and I'm done in 43 seconds max. I mostly do it to watch Netflix in Australia because the mrs likes some prison soap opera they do there. I feel safer from the hackers though, but to be honest I'm unsure if that's a real thing that it's safer..... I should check on that.

    They put the empty conduit for the upcoming fiber optics cable into the house today. I'll finally have fast Internet in October (if everything goes according to plan)!!

    I'm currently surfing the Internet with 50mbit down / 4mbit up and I'm paying a fortune for an unstable connection (€80 a month). I'll switch to the new provider who lays the fiber optics cables and I'll (hopefully) get 300mbit down / 150mbit up speed for €40 a month (yes, that's half the price for multiple times the speed - that's how shitty and scummy my current ISP is). I also have the option to go for 1000mbit down / 500mbit up max.

    I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!!

    This morning after the shower, that one early song from the #Ghouls 'n Ghosts game was randomly stuck in my head … so I've put on its OST to play in the background while I was at work.

      Editing … Yea, it's wild how some times we take it for granted. This week I read a short story in a book I had purchased off eBay while I was at work. I enjoyed the story so I looked up the author on my phone. Within like 30 minutes of reading that story, I had read the authors bio, checked out his bibliography, and then I was listening to a recording of an old obscure vinyl album where Vincent Price was reading a few of the authors short stories over my Bluetooth earbuds. If that sequence of events took place in 1990 or even the early 2000s it would've taken weeks of research and planning.
