gollark: In KSP I wanted to make a nuclear-powered aircraft for some reason, and thanks to it not carrying fuel it was very light, but I'm bad at designing planes so it couldn't turn well. So I added some RCS which ran off the atmosphere and some electricity (seems to be from a mod), and it turns out it can actually take off with that.
gollark: One sort-of-VPNish thing you can do is rent a VPS (virtual private server) with lots of available bandwidth somewhere else, host a private VPN server on there, and connect your stuff to that.This doesn't really anonymize you - all your traffic, and nobody else's, will go via that VPS's IP address - but it (effectively, possibly not legally) puts your internet traffic under the regime of wherever your VPS is instead of your actual location.
gollark: Such is the way of Windows.
