For me, if I’m gonna point it to Mullvad’s DNS servers anyway, then I might as well just use it directly. Having a profile also ensures all your traffic goes through there, instead of just browser traffic (if via extension).

They’re partnering with GL.Inet for this new version. I own the GL.Inet Shadow mini travel router and I just bought a Flint v1 router that’s arriving tomorrow to replace my home router. I was thinking of getting v2 but the earlier version’s specs are more than enough for my use-case. Just based on my Shadow mini router, GL.Inet is pretty solid. Their routers ship with openwrt pre-installed and the UI already has easy setup options for the popular vpn brands. That’s a hefty price tag though ($250). The latest GL.Inet flagship router is on sale for $127 right now.

Threat Model is always the answer to these kinds of posts. Come up with your own theat model to figure out your risk tolerance. Not doing that will just keep moving the goal posts.

I remember the video of the guy who visits countries as a tourist after major disasters or tragedies because everything becomes cheaper.

Maybe his expectation is that companies will buy his product because people will have to feed the AI-generated code into it to test it, instead of having humans manually review everything. Basically telling people to create a problem so he can sell his solution.

Regardless if you like Proton or not, having it bundled by default isn’t good. It should be opt-in.

Yeah I wasn’t pertaining to this particular show, just in general how Ticketmaster operates.

They also take advantage of people in a rush to grab tickets or someone else gets them first, so people just buy whatever they can click, not noticing they are dynamically priced.

For the free tickets you got, I think it’s possible to go to the box office at the venue and ask them to print paper tickets for you.

And considering it’s GM, it’s not really hard to avoid buying them when there are better options.

I dunno, I didn’t make the claim, they did. Go ask them. I just linked the thread because you were asking for comments from actual Finns.

In another community where this article was posted, a commenter who claimed to be Finn said it’s not true and that it’s the way Finns interact with the survey questions that make it seem like they are responding positively. I can’t explain it very well but you can find it somewhere here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/34737766

Border agents usually ask where you will be staying for the duration of your trip. They can also ask how you will be supporting yourself. She likely answered honestly and said she will be doing chores for host families in exchange for accommodation, which they probably interpreted as her working. Normally, a typical tourist will have hotel/airbnb reservations and border agents can ask to see those as proof.

Most countries are pretty strict with what you are and aren’t allowed to do while on a tourist visa. For example, tourists are generally not allowed to work or earn income while visiting, you need a work visa for that. Now I’m not 100% versed on how work is defined in this case, but they must have interpreted her chores-for-accommodation setup as work. Not excusing what they did to her, just providing context on the restrictions of tourist visas. I’m sure a lot of people have been doing this for a while, and the current immigration climate is likely why they’re just flagging it now.

That headline is a brand new sentence for sure.

Corporations are extremely protective about their branding, even if it’s for discontinued products. If this product gets any negative press, it can still affect their branding if people associate it with Intel.

I was thinking of switching from Mint to LMDE because why not go straight to the source right? Can you share what minor issues you’ve had with LMDE?

You can play youtube without ads via adguard, but you’ll have to do it everytime you watch a video (via options). Kind of a hassle, but it works. Firefox Focus also seems to be able to avoid ads most of the time.

I thought this was about our own Nicole. lol
