To counter some of the other comments, them being based in Panama is a huge plus imo, if you're inclined to do things deemed illegal by local authorities. They have no incentive to comply with government issued search warrants or the like. Most western country-based companies are legally obligated to comply with those requests, or even store information for a number of years. With quantum-based decryption there's no saying how long even encrypted data will be safe.

Yeah the moment Proton developed a password manager I switched. Very convenient and the price ain't bad if you use all their services.

I had the same thought watching the movie.

Yeah, the rage seems to usually stem from two misunderstandings:

  1. It forces you to use Bluetooth headphones.
  2. A 3.5mm jack is cheap and trivial to build into a phone, so there's little or no reason to not include it.

You already pointed out why neither of those are legitimate reasons. For 1 you just need a simple dongle, not new headphones. For 2, because the Fairphone is modular and repairable, it's not just the 3.5mm jack but also a custom replaceable daughterboard they'd have to develop and keep in stock.

Not having a 3.5mm jack is a minor inconvenience at most, I don't get the rage either.

Proton includes cloud storage and recently started supporting automatic backup of pictures on your phone.

The video responds much better than I could. But in short, Gary doesn't believe the housing prices to fall until the rich are taxed more. So get in soon if you can, it's only going to get worse.

Might be wrong, who knows. I'm not able to buy a house currently anyways so I'd have to wait either way.

Depends on altitude really. If you're higher up it's freezing meltwater, which might have a non-zero chance of containing disease carriers but it's probably extremely unlikely.

Theoretically, the money the supermarket saves not having to hire cashiers will be passed on to the consumer through lower prices. In practice though...
