Signal and Threema want nothing to do with WhatsApp
  • This has been my experience as well. In the past friends and family were more reluctant to break away from whatever their default communication app was. These days most people are already familiar with the idea of using one thing to text, another to "message", and often more than that. I've had great success converting people to more secure platforms now that they understand the process.

    Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome
  • Tech is a boogie man to many executypes. I've seen plenty of IT pros that were in over their head but smooth enough con men. If they keep coming up with things to throw money at/trim money out of convincingly they have long and successful careers.

    Christian Horner allegations: Hearing into complaint against Red Bull team principal set for Friday
  • Toto isn't going anywhere, he's essentially his own boss.

    Horner isn't immune to scrutiny but it's hard to see him getting ousted unless it's something very bad with concrete evidence.

    Why U.S. renters are taking corporate landlords to court
  • It isn't consistent in the US. Some landlords or properties include utilities in the price of rent, some don't. Some only include things like trash/water/sewer and it's up to you to source an electric/gas/internet provider.

    Looking for a new dry herb
  • It sounds like you could use just about any modern portable and be satisfied.

    I see you mentioned POTV devices in some other replies. Those are generally known to punch above their price point, offering excellent price to performance options. The Lobo is basically a value priced Crafty/Mighty+, with some options that even the name brand doesn't offer, like swappable batteries. I think you'd be quite happy with one.

    If you'd rather go for more "premium" options the Crafty+ would also be a great choice, but some people find S&B heating to cause a tickle in the throat (the "Bickel tickle") they don't like. The Firewood and Angus lines are also well regarded and widely used.

    [Karun Chandhok] The new Concorde Agreement will come into effect in 2026 which will likely limit the F1 grid to just 10 teams
  • Maybe try a VPN from a cheaper country? I've never tried it so I can't confirm it will work.

    For what it's worth there is some value to F1TV beyond the race weekends. The archives are (imo) nice to watch during the off season weeks and during summer break. I'd also much rather watch their tech pieces and whatnot through the official stream and not secondhand on YouTube or something where Google gets a piece of the revenue.

    Do whatever fits your life and budget. There's always the high sea.
