It looks like Nord VPN started working on split tunneling again. I wonder how long it will last. It seems like logging out and back in helped this time. I may need to try that next time it starts kicking me out of my streaming services.
The symptom is, the Nord VPN program appears to work normally except for the browser that I set to not be affected by the VPN at all. That is split tunneling. You can pick programs to work with the VPN or you can set programs that do NOT work with the VPN and just work off the ISP IP. The latter is the method I use. I set Firefox to not be affected by (not use) the VPN. I then use Brave browser (still under the VPN) for my normal surfing needs and use Firefox for streaming. All the streaming services have tools now that tell them if you are using a VPN and they will fail on purpose. They all have different symptoms. Some won't let you log in and others come right out and tell you to fuck off with your VPN.
For a while now, all my streaming services failed to load at all. I tried changing all kinds of settings and ended up figuring that it was a bug or a deliberate change in Nord VPN. I just switched off the Nord software when I wanted to stream. It was very annoying. I like to run a show in the background while I surf all the blogs and such on a different desktop. I had actually used 2 devices (my phone and the computer) to achieve this for a bit. That got old very quickly.
Today, my login expired on my laptop for Nord VPN and I logged back in. This is normal about every 30 days or whatever. Well, that seems to have fixed my issue. I bet it only works today. Tomorrow, or the next day my symptoms will show back up. I'll try logging out and back in if they do. I'll double check for updates.

Let me get this straight.
- WWIII just started in Ukraine vs Russia
- China is about to invade Taiwhan
- China is trying to dominate the S. China Sea
- Iran is about to get nukes
- The US Military is more worried about pronouns than defense.
- Canada declared martial law over truckers blocking streets and honking their horns.
- The entire financial system of the planet has become weaponized.
- The internet is being divided along national lines.
- The leagle system is happy to throw out the book as long as the "right people" get punished.
- Gas prices are skyrocketing.
- Shelves are empty.
- Inflation is historically out of control.
- There is no border between US and Mexico (if you are willing to break the law)
- Space aliens are real (don't forget that one)
What did I miss?

State of the blog
I give up.
I'm not going to put all the one liners on this blog any more. If i need this blog for a single link to multiple things or ifI want to rant about something at lenth, or if I have something personal I might use it. I mean, AI didn't even feel the need to talk about my Father's death last year or the shitty Christmas it caused. I'm done blogging I guess.
So, no point in shopping here for content. I'm taking it off my bring up list.
You know, just like the Germans did with the "Rind Land" before WWII.
