Great bits, but the crew laughter was a bit much this episode, no? It felt a bit performative to me rather than authentic. It sounded like they were dying of laughter for each joke, even when the joke wasn’t that funny.

If you absolutely need a Chromium browser (if you’re a privacy advocate, I don’t understand why. Using a Chromium browser means Google can do whatever they want with web standards), use Vivaldi or something.

my main issie is the web really is built for chrome

Indeed, although I rarely run into issues, but people not using Firefox will make this worse. Chromium, and by extension Google, has a monopoly on the web

Just to make sure, uNlock or uBlock origin?

Gee, whatever happened to wanting a meritocracy?

But nobody is talking about the environments and textures. I think they look incredible.

I have to disagree. In many examples, the lighting completely changes and colours are exaggerated. This completely changes the atmosphere of a given area.

Leaving aside the question of artistic intent, does this not lead to every player having a different experience? Or maybe even every session? DLSS 5 seems to fill in a looot of details and even changing things. How are they making sure it’s the same for every player?

Between proton accounts, mails are fully E2E encrypted. It’s just not a lot harder between different mail providers like Gmail and Hotmail. Proton does save the received emails fully encrypted, but that encryption has to be done on the server.

It is possible though, it just depends on tje sender/receiver: https://proton.me/support/proton-mail-encryption-explained

The current situation can only be achieved by an idiot who lacks the ability to understand the consequences of their actions like Trump.

Or by someone who couldn’t care less, because his rich buddies can now charge exorbinant prices and also has a new source for oil in Venezuela, which they can also sell for exorbitant prices.

Interesting system! Correct me if I’m wrong though, but buying credits does look like it’s not an automatically recurring payment (to buy credits), so that makes sense (they do keep the receipts though according to their privacy policy. Decoupled from the account, but they do keep data).

That’s a bit different from Proton’s credit card payment method (which is the case here) that automatically recurs. If Posteo offered automatically recurring payments, they’d have to save payment data as well (which they also explain in the privacy policy).

To be clear, Proton does also offer more private ways of paying. Paying by credit card is not the only option. Bitcoin or cash is also possible. I just found out that Proton does also actually offer a credit system as well, but it’s unclear to me if that’s decoupled or not. Definitely a place where they could do better.

Tbh, I actually still quite like the classic/legacy Windows Media Player

Not sure, they do seem to store something (pretty unclear what though), but I’m guessing that can be fully decoupled from a user’s account, since it’s unrelated to the actual service.

Indeed, but those are crypto payments from a third party crypto wallet. It’s also between users and not recurring, so Signal has no reason to keep the data.

This comparison makes no sense.

Signal doesn’t have payment data. It’s not a paid service. Proton is a paid subscription service and that payment data needs to be accessible in order to charge the user and they’re not a payment processor.

Switzerland used to be one of the best countries for it, but indeed not anymore. Proton is well aware and has already moved some infrastructure out of Switzerland.

Signal demonstrated that you can decouple payment info from account info

How did Signal demonstrate this? Signal is not a paid subscription service

Huh? The game studios pay the licenses, the artists etc. Why on earth would you then hold the store accountable? This is double dipping. That’s like charging a CD store for selling your CDs.

This shit is why the music industry is despised.

De elfstedentocht op de fiets lijkt me wel wat

Waar kan met de trein. Ik doe de laatste jaren vooral binnenlandse vakanties, dus dat lukt aardig. Ook een keer met de Eurostar naar Engeland geweest. Dat was wel opzich wel prettig. Geen vliegveld gedoe. Wel druk.

Ik wil nog eens een fietsvakantie doen

Even in the remote chance that this is true, they wouldn’t have had any reason to fire the missile if the US didn’t attack, so the blame would still lie with the US.
