    Discussion Encrypted locker challenge

    I saw on Twitter that NordLocker started a bounty campaign on their encryption software. Apparently they're willing to pay someone ten grand if they can manage to crack their encryption. Seems like an interesting challenge for those who know about this kind of stuff. And this could really blow...

    [SOLVED] Is there any software for windows to hold data with password protection?

    NordLocker might be something like that - you can have encrypted folders that can only be accessed with a password. You can try it for free and see if it's what you're looking for.

    What is your favourite movie of all time?

    Not a big film buff, but if I had to pick something I'd go with Blade Runner - the retro sci/fi and cyberpunk aesthetic was always really appealing to me, the plot is pretty interesting, though a bit slow paced. I enjoyed the book too.

    Discussion Drink of choice?

    Gin and tonic because you can get it at practically any bar. I like wine sometimes as an alternative to beer. Started to dislike beer in general, makes me feel bloated and fat. At least I like the taste of fancy cocktails and I'm not forced to drink a boatload.

    Question Should i quit pursuing Computer Science

    Well, I'm no computer science expert, but I've heard time and time again that math is not super important for CS (though it depends on what exactly you're interested in, data science needs more math). CS is a very broad topic, if you're certain that that is what you want to do then pursue it by...

    Discussion what is your favorite milk flavor?

    If I had to choose any type of milk then, flavor wise, vegan almond coconut milk is the way to go. I'm not vegan btw, but I've heard that dairy is not as good as most people believe.

    Question What was the first video game you remember playing?

    The first one, or at least the most memorable one, has to be Gruntz. I have no idea how I started to play it, but the silly slapstick humor and visuals really captivated me at the time. Later on I played other stuff that was popular in the early 2000s - Heroes of Might and Magic, Diablo...

    Question What is the best VPN?

    The NordVPN accounts were stolen because of credential stuffing - it's really the responsibility of users themselves to not reuse the same login information everywhere. And the "hack" wasn't really a hack - breach would be the correct term. And besides - the server provider left the...

    Discussion What's your MOST favorite MUSIC GENRE ? **currently playing song on your device** ?

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1tIH55Bo8k Well I guess my favorite genre of all time is metal because I grew up listening to it and being a bit of a rebellious bastard. Atm I'm listening to Tool, though the new album did not leave much of an impression

    [SOLVED] plz suggest me some new games

    Borderlands and maybe Warframe, though they don't really have dedicated servers, they're just multiplayer shooters like the other games you mentioned.

    Question POLL: Which Game should I buy???

    I'm a bit late but I wouldn't buy any of those. EA is not my cup of tea and lately I'm really frustrated with online multiplayer shooters

    [SOLVED] Is any VPN lifetime deal available ?

    I doubt that there is, software companies in general need the constant revenue stream to maintain the hardware and software to run the service. One time payments are a thing of the past unfortunately - things need to stay up to date to stay compatible and that costs money. In general I would...

    Question Best VPN for beginners?

    Yeah, Nord, Pia and Express are the biggest vpns right and they all seem pretty good for beginners. Also as far as I know they have trial periods or money back guarantees so you can safely try them out and see what works best for you.
