It's like Disney on ice, but for mandates

For me, the main issue I could no longer deal with is I couldn't make my Proton calendar sync with third party apps, so I would not have my mail and calendar in the same place and I would miss meetings.

Not having proton drive really hurts too when I'm paying for it.

I'll argue that calling them unintelligent dismisses their capacity for harm.

CEOs tend to be intelligent, cold and calculated. They will take whatever decision it takes to maximize profit, with complete disregard for human life. Even when they seemingly echo conspiracy theories, they generally do it with the end goal of increasing profits by pushing some narrative, for example.

We need to understand and acknowledge that they know exactly what they are doing, and that they and their companies need to be controlled using legislation. They will not be swayed by pity and emotions, they must be controlled by other means.

Studies show that sociopaths and psychopaths are better fits for CEO roles.

If you look at it from a strictly financial angle, Patrick Collison would get really wealthy from a US annexation of Canada as his company would get access to the very lucrative and deregulated US market.

You need to have zero conscience to take the best strictly financial decisions for a company, with no regard for suffering or human life.

The same CEO who wants Canada to join the US

That's fair, but I'm leaving Proton because their Linux support is abysmal on most products and I can't do a lot of things as a result.

I do hope they find success catering to Windows, though.

What's Windows? Never heard of it.

Which makes sense, data takes a while to compile and release. It just means that someone like myself, who's in their late 20's, isn't part of the data set. We're probably doing even worse than the millennials.

Indeed, but the oldest Gen Z are now 29, it would be nice to have more recent data.

Good source, thanks! I wish it also showed Gen Z

I have some RRSPs, but it's hard to contribute with the cost of rent and living.
