It's not worth it imho. Da pita out weighs da benefits.
Every time I've ever went catless, I've experienced and despised low end torque loss.

I second using PIA. Used it during the Olympics so the GF could watch her rugby matches. Was getting BBC for free. I'm not paying CBS or whatever acronym it is a lot of money for 2 weeks of sports I never watch to begin with.

Hi folks!!

For those who doesn't know, we usually use our own pictures to make a Z Calendar every year, how it works is I put up the pictures of your Z in an album in my profile, and people go there and put a "" on the 12 pictures they like the best.

The 12 pictures who have the most "" will make to the Calendar.

Last night I put all the pictures in the album..!!!

2017 Calendar

Same as last year, choose the 12 pictures you like the most, and put "" on the comments area.

The 12 pictures who got the most "" will be in the 2017 Z Calendar..!!!!

The vote is on now until the 9th Dec, Friday.

It doesn't matter you order the calendar or not, just go there and vote and have some fun.

cheers..!!!

If you wanna see how's the past year calendars look like, check those Calendar albums in my profile page, every year we have many nice pictures from you guys.

As many of us know, this is a fun project, not for making money

Its a never ending cycle! next thing you know you will have a virtual session open to ssh into another vm that is configured with the tor browser and VPN outgoing traffic

It really can remind you of that, all you need is the handshake noises playing in the background

There is no being 100% anon, unless maybe you are/work for a state actor.

Cant argue with gov't work! benefits are worth quite a bit.

Always a fun day when you have to start raising your voice against your "boss" in Portugal because he isn't happy I can't mandate to Verizon to install conduit and pull string for them to run their own fiber lines. Not my damn fault Verizon is a known scan artist shill of a company. Also not my problem that you set completely moronic deadlines for server integrations. 3 weeks to switch over a whole AD with direct fiber lines is asinine. Another day in the office....
