  Good idea budget wise. Mullvad doesn’t require any information from you though, except your payment info. And even then, you can pay by cash or crypto if you really want to purchase anonymously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton launches privacy-first alternative to Excel and Google Sheets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you don’t need port-forwarding, Mullvad is the best choice IMO. Eggs in a basket as well, if you already use other Proton products but don’t want to lock yourself into one vendor for everything.

  Check first what information is required to sign up again with a new account. Like the other commenter said, they might be asking for actual ID now just to sign up. In that case, just sell somewhere else. If you are able to sign up without providing any personal information, use facebook on a browser only. Firefox with uBO and facebook container. Use an email specifically made for that account and don’t use it anywhere else.

  Sony and Netflix do. It’s not about how good or bad something is. If it gets viral/popular, they will milk it as much as they can.

  I’m really missing out on some great piefed features just because I’m not using the official UI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I mentioned this in another comment, but if in this case the phones are going to be officially issued by the military, then they likely have MDM on them. At that point, it doesn’t really matter anymore what OS you use, they will see everything. No backdoors needed. And it might actually be harder to break MDM monitoring on an iphone vs android, so both sides of the argument you’re in come out as correct.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If anything, MDM will be harder to break on a (non-jailbroken) iphone vs android. So it will technically be harder for someone to block any spying. So in that scenario, both sides of the argument you are in come out right. lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  But the article is specifically saying they are forcing iphones because they are more locked down and less susceptible to compromise. And yes, we don’t know if they’re lying. However, the commenter just linked an unrelated article about celebrite’s claim about cracking an iphone. That doesn’t mean they are connected, and that doesn’t mean Android isn’t less compromisible. I’ve taken some device forensics classes albeit not as deep into smartphones like the person you’re arguing with, but I do think they have some merit with their argument.

  Thunder is cross-platform, and IMO has one of the best looking UIs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The struggle is real⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You can buy a portable bidet that is basically a squeeze bottle with a nozzle. I always carry a small bottle of liquid soap in my bag so I can wash anywhere. I also have an empty water bottle in my bag’s side pocket that I can fill up when I don’t have the portable bidet with me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tattoo Ink Moves Through the Body, Killing Immune Cells and Weakening Vaccine Response⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair, it’s possible it has been a significant factor to weakend immune systems all along; it was just now that the connection/link with tattoo ink was identified. Not a scientist obviously, just spitballing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dry Shampoo is the teenage girl equivalent to teenage boys' Axe Body Spray⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, dry shampoo has legit use-cases. Axe body spray can be replaced with any other spray-on deodorant.

  You’re probably building up more tolerance to it. That or they changed the formula for the US market. They seem to taste the same to me.

  I hiked with some Czech folks a couple of years back. We took a shot every time we took a break going up and down the mountain.

  Try film scores. That’s what I use when studying for certification exams. I listen to Jóhann Jóhannsson, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Thomas Newman, Nick Cave, Nico Muhly, Max Richter, and of course some Hans Zimmer as well.

  I’d be worried it will get caught in the chain or tires. Dunno why OP is afraid of being seen with the hat clipped to the handlebars.

  It’s been all Boku no Hero Academia the past few weeks because my wife is trying to catch up with the latest season, and I’m watching along as much as I can. I think we’re close to the finishing the last season before the current one.

  The best part about this is it’s an ad for Pluribus, where without spoiling anything, a message like that would absolutely work in the show.
