You’ve probably heard or seen a thousand different ads for a VPN, promising all sorts of security from hackers and the like. Josh has a really good breakdown here of why nearly all of that is a load of malarky, and what you should use a VPN for:

December of this year marks the 35th anniversary of the first PowerBooks shipping to customers. If only Apple would take the opportunity to bring back that classic brand name.
A couple of weeks ago the guys in Weapons of God released a video for “Double Barreled Medicine,” off their 2025 album TRIbulation. The video features mostly footage from their set at Immortal Fest 2025 in Versailles, Ohio, along with submissions from fans.

The boys in Messenger have released a new video for their song “Messenger at Arms,” from their 2020 album In To Win. It’s very metal!
