This isn't a technical issue, it's a sociocultural one. Streaming services fill the same role so some of the same policies still make sense.

There's definitely problems with that option. But in the situation you described I'd just say fuck you and close the page rather than support that. People immediately leaving is probably worse than bad questions don't get answers.

An abstain, maybe? Would also be useful for questions that you won't know enough to answer. Then if you keep getting hung juries you know you're asking bad questions.

They're just trying to teach their human to hunt. First step is to demonstrate that the mouse is food. Diva is clearly just getting frustrated with how slow a learner the human is.

And we had headlines this week of a surge in trade to other countries. this is blatant misinformation

It works for me... I think it's something like it goes faster with port forwarding but to be honest I don't know the details.

Unions have strike funds to pay those participating in the strike. It's not the full amount though, and it's not like they're paid enough these days.

If you're near a picket line it's worth bringing some treats to the strikers. The sweet taste of solidarity helps.

Yeah... Per the article, the office of the Labour Minister is investigating so maybe they will intervene to improve funding. I know a postie and they really deserve better conditions.

TLDR: The collective agreement was extended until May 22 after the return to work order. Negotiations for a new collective agreement are ongoing, but could just end in a strike again.

As a general rule, if you're getting a service for free, you're the product.

I don't know much about the downsides of free in the context of VPNs, as I didn't really get in to the technical ins and outs. But when we're talking security and privacy I think the cost of supporting something good and sustainable is well worth it.

I've heard port forwarding is helpful for speed, and that might be a paid only thing, but to be honest I'm consistently surprised by how fast things go for me just using mullvad.

Another thing you may wish to consider: the Proton CEO has praised Trump which is a huge red flag to me in the privacy space.
