step-by-step tutorial: how to target US tiktok from anywhere using your own $5/month VPN without getting shadowbanned.
9 minutes. zero fluff. every single click shown.
NordVPN users are cooked.
daniel@danielhangan_
do not use NordVPN for tiktok to target US Audience. you get shadow banned instantly. most people using cheap VPNs or residential proxies get flagged by tiktok because hundreds of others share the same ip. you and 50,000 other people using NordVPN daily to target US audience on tiktok.... ofc tiktok know about it. solution: host your own VPN on hetzner using Outline VPN for $5/month and takes 10 minutes. outline (google owned) makes it easy to host your own VPN server on any cloud. here’s how i do it: go to hetzner .com/cloud create a vps in the us region cheapest plan ($5/mo) is enough go to getoutline .org download outline manager (for your laptop) download outline app (for phone or desktop connection) follow hetzner’s guide: http://community.hetzner. com/tutorials/install-outline-vpn-server it installs outline via docker automatically open outline manager → add the server → create vpn keys each key is like a password you can use on different devices paste the key into the outline app → connect → done tips: always pick us/eu servers don’t use VPNs that bill per gb traffic. Hetzner is the best bc it gives you 20TB of bandwidth/month. DigitalOcean gives you only 5TB/month. stay away from GCP or AWS. you will get $300/month bills only for the bandwidth. rotate ip monthly by redeploying your server never share vpn keys with others this makes tiktok think your connection is a normal us home user, not a clipper using shared vpn/proxy.

Anthropic ran their entire marketing operation with one person.
$380 billion company.
Paid search. Paid social. SEO. Email. App stores.
One non-technical hire doing all of it — for 10 months.
I pulled it apart.
Compared it to every system we've built across the clients we've worked with.
Then asked myself one question:
If I had to reverse engineer this from scratch — what would it actually look like?
Turns out the architecture isn't that complicated.
I mapped the whole thing into a 47-page PDF you can upload directly to any LLM.
It coaches you through building your own version step by step.
Comment "marketing" and I'll send it over.

I Made $1.2M by ripping ads
Never filmed a single second of footage.
Never hired a creator.
Never spent more than 30 minutes on a creative.
My best performing ad was made from 3 TikTok videos I found in 10 minutes.
It spent $47K made $140K revenue.
The method is simple. Nobody talks about it because it kills the "you need a big budget" narrative.
Drop "RIP" in the comments.
I'll send you the exact process I use to find, cut and launch a winning creative in under an hour.
24 hours only.

Am I crazy, or do claude code MCPs constantly break in ways that just providing an API key and docs don't?
The MCPs are just constantly filled with broken tool calls, and in many cases random errors about the MCP disconnecting and stuff.
Literally just better to give key + docs

I still remember when I was 6th grade (~2007?), I had a computer class and the teacher just looked like a guy who knew his shit... big thick glasses, smelled like cigarette smoke and coffee.
He wired up all the computers in the classroom to a single power strip, and on several occasions he would randomly kill the power to all the computers in the middle of class with no warning and start laughing at everyone who lost work because they didn't save it.
That dude made me so paranoid to lose data, and no surprise even all these years later I've never had a major data loss incident.
English
Obviously many of you think I'm some kind of retarded cowboy coder
And I am kinda
But I also always make sure I have backups anddo things securely (like get security audits) so that things can't go wrong that much and if they do I am safe
Kinda like sky diving (dangerous) but taking all the precautions possible and doing it safely
I never lost any data!
@levelsio@levelsio
The 3-2-1 Backup Rule is more important than ever if you code with AI because fatal accidents can happen It means you should have 3 copies of your data, in 2 different media types and 1 copy off-site 1) One is the actual data on your own server (the hard drive) or DB server 2) One backup is in cloud storage (that's the different media type) 3) One backup is off site, at another provider, and preferrably in another geographical location For me that's 1) Hetzner VPS, 2) Hetzner's own daily and weekly backups on the dashboard, and 3) Backblaze B2 Hetzner's own backups are impossible to access by the VPS or AI, so that's safer If you use AWS or other providers you can apply the 3-2-1 Backup Rule in your own way I've never lost any data!

.@dannypostma posted a prompt that went viral.
then deleted it.
it interviews you about your project until every detail is nailed down. architecture, UX, tradeoffs, edge cases - all before writing a single line of code.

@GermannHj @AJButton2 They aren't even nicer, they just appear friendlier on the outside. Thailand is a tourist destination, so the "service" vibes are way better. But I've genuinely made so many more actual connections with people in KL, simply because there isn't a language barrier.
English
@AJButton2 I think you missing are one important aspect in your assessment. Having stayed in both KL and Bangkok for several months, I think Thai people are way more friendly, liberal, and tolerant than the more traditional Islamic vibe felt in KL. E.g., KL is not a place to live for LBQT.

First Impressions - KUALA LUMPUR
24 hours ago, I landed in Kuala Lumpur (KL) Malaysia, after six months in Bangkok.
Like Bangkok, KL boasts cheap rent and year-round tropical weather.
I came here to see how it compares to its more famous Thai cousin.
My first impressions:
#1. AFFORDABILITY. Most local street food costs about the same in KL as in BKK--which is to say far cheaper than in the west. In the pic below (1), you can see a nice Muslim-style flatbread sandwich I got for about $1.50. At a Halal food truck in Toronto or New York, this would cost like 10 bucks. A standard Thai street dish for a single person would cost about the same at this, but it would more likely be a soup of some kind rather than a sandwich, as Thai cuisine isn't big on sandwiches.
As far as price of accommodation goes: again, KL is quite similar to Bangkok. My hotel cost around $25/night--very similar to Bangkok hotels, and for a similar price.
#2. INFRASTRUCTURE QUALITY. Broadly speaking, I am finding KL's infrastructure to be better quality than Bangkok's. In the picture below (2), you can see a typical KL street. It is much wider and paved better than a typical Bangkok street; as a result, it is more pleasant to walk on. In fact, I would say that KL's street infrastructure (roads, traffic lights, signage, overpasses, skytrain etc) is on par with any *WESTERN* city.
#3. CONVENIENCE/LIFESTYLE/FLEXIBILITY. When it comes to convenience and lifestyle factors, KL is again quite similar to Bangkok. Restaurants and food vendors on every street corner. Well served by Grab (Uber/Doordash of SouthEast Asia) for transportation and food. A skytrain serving the city. Bangkok's BTS is generally thought to have better coverage than KL's monorail, but the latter is more aesthetically pleasing, having a 'clean' and futuristic look. I would call it a tie between KL and Bangkok on convenience/lifestyle/flexibility.
#4. WEATHER
KL is a little bit cooler than Bangkok. In this writer's opinion, that is a positive. Those seeking "fun and Sun" may feel differently.
#5. MISC THINGS ABOUT KL
Having compared KL to Bangkok on the criteria most travellers are interested in, I'll now move on to some misc things I noticed about KL that make it unique.
- Bright lights! KL is lit up like a lightbulb on every street corner. In the image below (3), you can see an ad for a Bank, clearly lit up in bright, multi-colored, flurorescent lights. In the West, this kind of fluorescent lighting is typical of nightlife and strip clubs; you definitely wouldn't see a bank lit up like this in (e.g.) Canada.
- Hustle and bustle. KL's streets are extremely busy and high energy much like New York City's. Very frequently, you'll find yourself having to navigate around other people in order to get ahead on a KL sidewalk. This can be frustrating, but it contributes to the 'high energy' feels that KL offers.
- The skyline. KL has one of the most iconic skylines in the world, boasting megatall skyscrapers as well as some smaller but nevertheless recognizable buildings. Even if you're just hearing the name "Kuala Lumpur" for the first time now, there's a good chance you've seen the KL skyline before in a movie or TV show!
In the image below (4) you can see Petronas Towers, the world's most famous Twin Towers, and one of the most iconic components of KL's skyline. Other noteworthy buildings in the KL skyline include the sky needle-esque Kuala Lumpur Tower and the futuristic Merdeka Tower.
Conclusion
After spending 24 hours in Kuala Lumpur, the best way I can think of to describe it is "Saudi Arabia meets Bangkok meets China." Like Saudi Arabia, KL is replete with Islamic sights, sounds, flavors and smells. Like Bangkok, it is affordable yet luxurious. Like China, it is full of bright lights and red-yellow decorative motifs. Overall, it is a place that has to be experienced to be believed.

@david_attisaas Brother you are training cardio 4x a week, not legs 4x a week. And it absolutely explains why you feel so much better.
English
this post went viral because most men don’t train their legs and can’t comprehend someone training them 4X a week
well… I don’t comprehend why you’re not doing it because my legs workouts is the reason I got the physique and blood markers that I have
I don’t lift heavy
I’m training for aesthetics and beauty.
it’s my little vice …
mostly running up the stairs with a weighted vest 5kg or 10kg depending on how I feel for an hour back and forth + loads of sprints + jumping squats up the stairs
if any of the above doesn’t make sense to you …. get a coach !!!
David Attias@david_attisaas
life with high testosterone is 1000% worth living and really enjoyable you guys should try go get a blood panel and if it's below 700 ng/dl, watch podcasts on youtube for how to increase it naturally boron, veal liver, tons of sun, d vitamine, fish oil, legs training 4X a week worked very very well for me

What nobody tells you about living in Southeast Asia long-term
Month 1: This is paradise. I'm never going home
Month 3: Found my neighborhood, my coffee shop, my routine
Month 6: Starting to notice the cracks: power cuts, language barrier, bureaucratic chaos, visa anxiety...
Month 12: The novelty is gone. It's just life now, with extra humidity
Month 18: You've sorted out which problems are fixable and which are the price of admission
Month 24: You either commit fully or move on. There's no comfortable middle
The people who say SE Asia doesn't work long-term left at month 6
The people who say it's paradise forever are still at month 1
The truth is somewhere around month 18, when you have to make an actual decision
I stayed 2 years. Learned more about myself than any therapy could've taught me, and still love it
But it was not meant to be

@siimi96 @okaythenfuture I was thinking the same thing. Literally never heard a single person that lives in Malaysia wish that it was more like Bangkok.
And as far as most Malaysians wish to be more like Singapore, I think what they really want is to earn a Singapore salary and bring it back to Malaysia
English
Funny enough not one single soul I’ve met in my life, my peers, my elders, my juniors.
Non of them ever said “I wish Malaysia is more like Bangkok”
You sound like the typical tyranny western male where you assert opinion based on your flawed assumption.
“Oh they like travelling to Bangkok they must want to be more like them!”
No dude. We fully accept the point where Malaysians wishes to be more like Singapore. Economically at least. But we travel to anywhere in Thailand because it’s cheap and doable by land.
You should accept criticism, try to improve on them and don’t be bitter a beckie. You are acting worse than a Nigerian on this matter.
English
Malaysians are never going to beat the allegations it seems,
Posting 1 million times “no please don’t come to Malaysia, it’s horrible”, doesn’t actually make you look nonchalant and chill,
It just makes you look thin skinned and just bitter especially since the people offering their nuanced views on Malaysia have all been there already, and guess what as boring it is, we will still come at some point again in the next few years just because.
Accept criticisms, try to improve on them, and just don’t be bitter Beckies. You guys are acting like Nigerians who are quite similar on this as well tbh.

Quick Kuala Lumpur review 🧵 * Horrible weather. Muggy, hot. Might be worse than Bangkok. * Questionable city planning. One of the few big Asian big cities where I wish I had a car. Some streets are difficult and dangerous to walk through. * Grab (Southeast Asia's Uber) usually takes a long time to come. Probably not enough drivers + bad traffic. * Heavy-flavor and calorie-dense foods abound. I am a fan but know I'll gain hella weight if I were to live there (love bak kut teh, durian, and satay especially). Not surprised that the average Malaysian seems a bit on the pudgier side. * The Malaysian Chinese are secure in their identity, as I discussed in the quoted post, and I really respect that and think every Chinese can learn from them. * I know racial tensions and conflicts have been big in Malaysia for a long time (which probably is the main reason why the Chinese are extra cooperative and proud there), but people seem to coexist fairly well in KL in 2026. Felt the same about Penang when I was there last May. Hell, Malaysians even invented a term, "Kongsi Raya", which denotes Chinese New Year and Eid ul-Fitr (end of Ramadan) coinciding, leading to big simultaneous multicultural celebrations.
English
@okaythenfuture KL has no desire to be Bangkok. If there's any inferiority complex, it has nothing to do with Bangkok, and everything to do with Singapore, and more broadly speaking it has a lot to do with English being widely spoken and the content people are exposed to as a result.
English
The thing about KL and Bangkok is that KL thinks about Bangkok a lot, hell even KL even thinks about Hat Yai a lot (Southern Thai city Malaysians flock to for tourism)
KL is also obsessed with Singapore a lot,
The city suffers from a massive inferiority complex in this regards as it lives in the shadows of two dynamic neighbors.
But meanwhile no one in Bangkok is ever thinking about KL.
KL might as well be on another continent for the average Bangkokian.

90-120 day bases in the best parts of the world
Right now my rotation is:
1. Mexico
2. USA
3. Spain
I rent year long leases and hop to each spot during their prime seasons
By far the most fun way to live life, avoid burnouts and meet new people
