I seem to be in a #DeadKennedys mood today

@x1101 Certainly not a bad mood to be in.
-
@x1101 Bleh, seems it's US-only. #Pandora #suboptimal
-
@psquid fight the power man!
-
@psquid I join your blehing at this, but don't you have a VPS in the US? Or do you now need a credit card?
-
@moggers87 Yes. As I discovered about 3 minutes later, a little SSH tunnelling is sufficient. :)
-
@psquid if the service is any good may I have an account on your server? :)
-
@moggers87 @psquid how is the stream quality after a #TransAtlantic journey?
-
@x1101 Perfect. If I hadn't known (and my bandwidth usage server-side hadn't spiked :P), I honestly wouldn't have guessed it was tunnelled.
-
@psquid good to know. Now I know I rock some pandora even if a site blocks it!
-
@x1101 It's also as simple as just a dynamic-port (the -D flag) tunnel and setting Firefox's proxy (well, via Foxyproxy so I can tunnel ..
-
@x1101 .. a single site). No faffing with system-level settings.
-
@psquid I've already build a script calld proxyfox (chrome is my default) which creates tunnel, launches special FF profile setup for it
-
@x1101 Yeah, tunnelling a regular site's easy. Just remarking on how its streaming solution (Flash?) evidently also obeys proxy settings.
