commenting for tracking. I've been searching for the same.

I travel from Portland, Oregon to Denver, Colorado and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania every year for the Decibel Metal and Beer Festivals. Not sure how far that is, but its definitely multiple hours in a plane.

Looking at flying out to France for Hellfest next year as well. That's pretty far from home as well.

How can they be in tech when they deny science and believe in mythology?

I'm the cash-shop-anocerous. All my microtransactions bleed your wallet like a phlebotomus.

Agree with other commenters this sounds like a time share. This last week tonight is a pretty interesting watch about the way they hustle people.

It does send a "your safety number has been updated with user" message. But not as an automated message. Only when a new signal thread is started.

Haven't tried when only logged in to desktop and changing devices / numbers so I can't speak to that.

I often figure it's google bias and / or people trying to impose their threat models on other people.

Been using proton for quite a while with a few custom domains and am impressed with the service to price of their offerings.

We can one off use cases with any vendor, but at the end of the day, they offer a more secure out of the box experience than just about any other platform out there. If someone is doing illicit shit and gets popped, it's not on the service provider to provide air cover for them. Improve your opsec or self host.

Big concern with your number being recycled and a new user receiving the signal activation key on that number.

The barrier to entry is pretty low anymore for Linux. There's some really helpful communities here as well. I've ran various versions as secondary OS'es since the early 00's and can pretty confidentially say, its never been easier.

PopOS, Mint and even Ubuntu are super easy to get up and running and Proton makes gaming a breeze like never before.

Can we please nuke the vatican? Then continue systematically disassembling all other religions?

You've got around 9 months left on Win10 supportability. Then it will move in to LTS channels only. It was incredibly well adopted so we have to believe any open vulnerabilities will be targeted quickly and relentlessly. Sadly, we will be in a 11 only world by this time next year.
