Nick - maybe you could do a MLFT(Self Isolating)B on how to get an Italian VPN.

…Maybe we ain’t that young anymore -
None of the usual cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) seem to have locations in Italy, so I wouldn’t know where to start. I used GitHub - trailofbits/algo: Set up a personal VPN in the cloud to set up an AWS EC2 server over in Virginia to get past GDPR blockers, which is about the limit of my VPN expertiseOriginally posted by WTFH View Post

In with the hoi polloi
Today's shopping expedition: two bottles of courvoisier since it was better value than the Southern Comfort.
It's antiseptic, see.
Two tubes of ibuprofen gel for The Leg.
A jar of Heinz sandwich spread for no detectable reason whatsoever other than seeing it on the shelf.
A cauliflower, mostly because I like cauliflower.
10 dvds donated to charity emporium on the stagger down (first stagger down in weeks).
I may buy some frozen peas on the way home.
The computer room is relatively empty apart from the old farts like me, and the chap teaching Universal Benefit claimants how to use a PC.
It seems a loooooong time* since I had the mistaken impression that the " symbol on the ASR33 was the same as '', which it most certainly isn't and the FORTRAN compiler told me so in no uncertain terms.To get an "@" symbol, you press the "shift" key, and while it's still pressed down, you press the key with the "@" symbol on it
*Largely because it's 48 years ago now.

That happened at our GP a while ago. Too many people queueing 30 minutes before surgery opened....Originally posted by NickFitz View PostMorning denizens
Sunny start out, as the high cloud in the east is driven out by scenic white fluffiness from the west
Still only around 8°C though.
I awoke to a text from the GP’s surgery saying we can no longer make appointments at the reception desk - everything has to be done by phone. Makes me wonder why I bother living next door to them
I now suspect that the whole SARS-CoV-2 thing has been started by the Guild of GP’s Receptionists as the culmination of their master plan to solve the “Patient Problem” once and for allComment
