Just logged on to wi-if instead of using cellular. Wi-Fi host blocks SF for “weapons”.
I told them wait until Kavanaugh gets on SC. Yeah, I know. Fuck ‘em. Back on Verizon.

So your using someone's wi-fi signal and your not happy with the setting they have on it?

I'll admit to not being real sharp about all this but if its like my router I can place restrictions on its use.
Access to Sigforum for you may be just fine but they may also have young children that they want to restrict what they can have access too.

Mustang, if you dont know what your kids are looking at, you need blockers. IF your a responisble parent you damn well know what your kids are doing. He probably was at someones place that didnt care enough aobut there kids, but more about their kids not being scared by big scarey mean weapons


Used guns deserve a home too

Kind of unusual for a private homeowner to block these sites. I wonder why this was done. Did you ask whether it was done deliberately? Might have just accepted a default set of blocking rules without actually looking at them.

Maybe this was installed by a cable company "technician" and your friend doesn't even realize that some sites are blocked?

Can you get access to the modem to fix the DNS settings?

Wouldn't surprise me to know he doesn't even know it's blocked. Probably has some sort of "protective" software installed that blocks it automatically cause guns are bad.




"The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."
"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."

Hey! That's what I said, 11 minutes before you, in the post just before yours.

You need to be more perceptive, dude. Oh, wait . . .
