Cannot Use Dropbox on macOS after Using VPN (Lantern) - macos

In China, I use VPN to connect to Dropbox, Google, Youtube... Now, I have come to the USA, but I found I cannot use Dropbox without VPN I used in China (Google, Youtube are ok)
I cannot open www.dropbox.com, and cannot connect to Dropbox via the Dropbox software on my macOS. The VPN I used in China is Lantern (it is not an a.d.)
I try to find the solutions, like resetting the network of macOS, but it didn't work. Could you help me with this problem? I would like to provide any information if you need. Really thank you :-)

Yes, finally I solve this problem. It was caused by VPN. Because it modifies my host file of macOS. I delete all lines about Dropbox in the host file, and then I succeed :-)

Accessing Vagrant box from external network

Before posting this, I've done some research and tried different solutions. The question is how to configure a system so that it would be possible to SSH into it's vagrant box from external/different network?
I have a Windows machine at home. I have installed Vagrant and now able to access the contents both via HTTP and SSH from any device connected to very same network.
What I want to do is to be able to get a laptop, go to a nice little café just across the river, sit down and work on my project which sits in that Vagrant box on my home desktop PC.
I am quite terrible in networking and not sure what is the solution. Do I need to make my home desktop a server? If so, which steps should I take? Do I need to do configure something in my router software? Or do I need to create some kind of VPN stuff where Vagrant thinks I am actually requesting it's contents from the same home network or perhaps I just better give up and setup a droplet in the DigitalOcean instead?
To moderators: please don't shut this question because the answer is an opinion based. I am happy to listen to these opinions and I want to know which steps to follow to achieve what I want.
Thanks
Why not just copy your Vagrantfile to the laptop and spin up an instance there? It would be much less work, faster, and importantly much safer than opening up your desktop computer to the world.
I think your own suggestion of a remote server is also a valid option, although not quite as simple as just using the laptop.

How to run Tor Network in Google Colab?

Lets be Honest, Google Colab's Terminal gave me a Lot of Power and Potential. But there is one thing that I cannot and How can I Install Tor Network in Google Colab Although, I can Install and run both tor and torghost in terminal but there is a Problem, it says IP Tables not set and I have researched on this for Months but could not find any answers. If anyone can Pull this off you are a Legend.
So, here is a Quick Summary to the testing I have done so Far,
IP Tables are not in Google Colab.
We need to somehow set the IP Tables in a way that we both get connected to the runtime and its IP Dosent change for Google Colab Services but the traffic comming and going out should be through Tor.

Why is flutter.dev not reachable?

I cant seem to access flutter.dev site, I tried from different browsers, devicesand networks but always get
This site can’t be reached
flutter.dev took too long to respond.
Tried tracert flutter.dev and only got to homerouter and started to timeout
I have am currently on a fresh install of windows 10.
any help please?
First of all, check if flutter.dev is reachable from other devices as smartphone, pc, etc. If other devices could reach flutter.dev from the same network, check DNS settings, look at "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts". Perhaps you are using something for local development e.g dnsmasq, in this case, all .dev domains could be pointed to your local machine.
I hope, that my answer will be useful.

Cloud9 - Local on DigitalOcean

i have been googling it for all day and i can't find anything that might give me a hint on this.
i have my server hosted on Digital Ocean. untill today i signed up for a free cloud9 account, and used ssh to connect to my server.
but i understand that i can actually clone the IDE and intall it locally on the server (even though it is kind of already installed). but i can't find any tutorial on how to access it later, i mean, lets say it is installed on the server, i need a way to ssh to that server dont i? so how can i interact with it?
i want it locally to be able to install plugins..
some light might help :)

FTP client that functions similarly to Dropbox?

I'm trying to help a wonderful designer who is sadly running out of space on her Dropbox, but is already paying for hosting service that has 100GB available for her. Is there a software that works and that is seamlessly integrated within explorer and updates files on FTP that you yourself can assign?
Thanks!
What you are looking for is something like FTPBox http://ftpbox.org/
Hell in your case Id consider buying a NAS drive :)
QNAS make about the best on the market, they can be rigged up as ftp servers, have almost a terabyte space, allow for windows and linux integration and make brilliant samba servers.
It all depends on your requirements, which you have not stated too clearly.
Do you want Internet storage (web/dav/ftp/sftp) or storage within your own network?
If you are looking for a solution which is available for almost every OS and where the storage is located somewhere in our wonderful Internet-verse, webdav/s could be the solution.
I'm not really sure, if I understand the statement "files on FTP that you yourself can assign".
Please be a little bit more specific.
Why not Filezilla?
http://filezilla-project.org/
You can try IQBox, my own free open-source project. It syncs using FTP-SSL by default (you can use non-SSL FTP also, but not recommended due to security.) It's a simple sync app for FTP.
Official Download Page for IQBox FTP Client

If they are using Windows they can set up an FTP account as a "Network Location", then you can use it like a regular folder on your PC. Drag and drop away.
