    At the firewall level, port forwarding forwards traffic bound for one port to another machine on your network on an arbitrary port, but the UI built on top of it in your router may not include this.

    If it’s not an option in your Fritzbox, your options are:

    • Make the service running on your internal network listen on one of those high-number ports instead.
    • Introduce another machine on the network that also performs NAT between your router and your machine
    • Try to access the underlying firewall in your router to tweak the rules manually. Some routers have an admin console accessible via telnet or SSH that may allow this.
    • Get a new router.

    The first and last options on this list are probably the best.




  • So what? What good is a “progressive” party if they prop up genocide? The Conservatives are going to take the next election precisely because of cowardice like this. Why should anyone consider voting for the NDP (or the Liberals for that matter) if their policies are the same where it matters?

    This is the thing the NDP doesn’t get: principles and passion are what drive Left-leaning voters. It’s not enough to be “not Conservative”. We already have that party. We need a party that taxes the shit out of billionaires, blocks fossil fuels, and yes, stops selling weapons to genociders. Without the courage to be better, they’re just another meaningless colour on the ballot.


  • It would be absolutely bizarre if you couldn’t connect with WireGuard port and Wireguard obfuscation set to Automatic. Things to try first:

    1. Connect without your VPN and try to access a single website like the theguardian.com
    2. Once that’s working, enable your VPN and that should do it.
    3. If you still can’t get connected, try switching out different countries. Each country listed corresponds to an IP to which your machine will try to connect over a benign port like 443 – so blocking that sort of traffic would be mad unless the IP is explicitly blocked. Therefore, driving to different country targets offers a different IP every time. They’d have to know Mulvad’s whole list and block them all.

    If the above somehow doesn’t work, Mulvad offers support through which you can get a temporary Server IP override. You can enter that in the bottom portion of your app’s settings.


  • Taking a principled, public stand on a moral issue and then subverting said statement via a backdoor through the US is sadly unsurprising from Liberals.

    “Canada must not be fuelling the ongoing genocide in Gaza with Canadian-made weapons,” said Heather McPherson, a Canadian parliament member and foreign affairs critic for the NDP.

    Aren’t they still propping up this government? Someone should remind Singh that the NDP are nothing if they can’t have stronger principles than Liberals.








  • I feel like these are rather tame choices to be honest, though I can’t recall anything specific. I just remember hearing him speak in the House years ago under Harper and thinking: “What an odious little man”.

    Rather than sifting through controversial news headlines, they’d do well to sift through video archives of house debates. I seem to remember racist dog whistles and some pretty terrible things said during the Conservative push for voting “reform” and that Muslim snitch line.







  • I like it, and I’d bet dollars to doughnuts that you’re talking about Discovery. I’ve said in the past that the show should be called “Star Trek: Michael Burnham” as it would at least be more honest.

    To be fair, I think every series has a lot of episodes that would fail this test, some of which were excellent, like DS9’s “In the Pale Moonlight”, and “Far Beyond the Stars” or TNG’s “The Inner Light”, but if used to assess a series, I think this could be a good metric.
