I would strongly assume Protonmail will be doing this automatically soon, there's no manual day-to-day verification necessary.

Writing to the Blockchain is difficult and takes processing power, reading from it is absolutely trivial though.

Most spine-possessing influencers.

No one is immune to ads.

Qwant is unfortunately owned by Axel Springer, truly one of the worst German companies in existence. They're the publisher of the most popular (and unfortunately highly politically biased, filled to the brim with dishonest exaggerations and occasionally straight-up lies) German newspaper Bild.

Whatever comes out of Qwant if it actually becomes popular, you can rest assured it will be nothing good.

Just use DuckDuckGo and be done with it.

Currently largest and most successful YouTuber on the platform (by a wide margin), started out by doing challenge videos about himself (24h in ice, that kinda stuff) that he'd invite friends to as the goody sidekicks causing mischief and making his challenges a little harder/more interesting.

These days, his stuff has transformed into a media powerhouse, all of it is still kinda falling into a challenge category. Now with far higher stakes and involving other people in competitions against each other - think "kids vs adults - group with most people still in the game after 5 days wins $500k" - where several days (sometimes months) of filming all gets cut down to one 10-20 minute long video.

There's also just "look at this thing" videos like "$1 to $10,000,00 car" where him and his friends check out increasingly expensive cars until they eventually get a whole bridge cordoned off to drive in the most expensive car in the world.

He does some philanthropy, like his "plant 10 million trees" campaign and makes money through sponsorship deals and advertising his own brands - they're currently running their own line of (fair trade?) chocolate bars that are available (in most places?) in the US, which kids will buy because of the brand recognition, leaving them with a ton of profits.

Damn, this seems like exactly what I've been looking for... Shame I'm finding it a year late.

One last really important point you didn't mention is how long do they serve security updates for?

FOUR cameras, however!

I mean, I think at that point it just becomes noise that you filter out. Ain't nobody looking at their phone for 2000 buzzes every day - when everything's marked important, nothing is important.

Big thing about being based on Ubuntu is that the community support is the biggest. Any issue you find, you can google, and there's a 99% chance there'll be an answer for Ubuntu which can be applied as-is to Mint.

It's an incredible tool, don't know why I thought only cloud providers could do cross-device file syncing in the past...

All of these words yet not a single one mentions what exactly was faulty about the old software. Did it force-eject drivers after "certain limits" were "exceeded"?
