I don't mean to be antagonistic, but could this just be due to poor job satisfaction on your side. There is nothing wrong with not loving your job. Maybe you use it as a means to an end but I personally really enjoy talking about what I do for a job because I love my job

I made the same switch due to Monzo refusing me and my partner a joint account. Starling had no issue with giving us one

And it will fail due to the current voting system. CPG Grey has a great explainer on why there will only ever be 2 political parties under the current system https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7tWHJfhiyo

Yep, Firefox with ad blocker here too. That seems to be the issue

"No painting found for today"

For the Dublin whiskey fire:

People drank the 6 inches (150 mm) deep river of whiskey that is said to have flowed as far as the Coombe. None of the fatalities suffered during the fire were due to smoke inhalation, burns, or any other form of direct contact with the fire itself; all of them were attributed to alcohol poisoning.

No one was killed as a result of the fire. They all died from drinking to much of the river of whiskey. Wow

Personally, I don't rely on it 24/7 and just use it for my personal use but some people use it for business purposes and not having access to your emails for a day or two can be expensive down time.

But you are right, no service is bulletproof

I was a big fan of Protonmail but there recent outages have been far from ideal. Might be worth considering other alternatives if 24/7 access to emails is a must

The people who fall for it of course never ask where the money is coming from, because if they did they'd figure out it was suckers like them.

This is the case with all forms of gambling. I think that they know that the money is from others less fortunate. However, human nature seems to make us believe that somehow, we will be the lucky one.

It has gone down again today.

Their statement yesterday:

Yesterday we unfortunately experienced technical difficulties which meant that Proton services were offline intermittently throughout the late afternoon and evening European time. During this period, incoming email, outgoing email, and push notifications were also temporarily delayed. As of 2:45AM Geneva time, all emails and notifications are caught up, but we are continuing to monitor the situation in case of further faults.

We can confirm that no data and no emails were lost. Due to our redundant infrastructure, emails that were not immediately delivered were queued and automatically redelivered. We are still investigating the issue, but what we can share so far is that the technical difficulties were caused by a software update that was conducted over the weekend which adversely impacted the performance of certain systems. Unfortunately, this issue only appeared under under high loads which we were not able to fully simulate in testing. Furthermore, because this was a major software and operating system upgrade, there was no way to roll back the software update.

This result of this was an extended period of intermittent outages and performance issues while we tried to work around the issue. We have now put a number of safeguards in place, and will continue to improve the reliability of our infrastructure to guard against this type of issue in the future. We apologize deeply for this issue and thank you again for your understanding. Our engineering team is currently conducting a root cause analysis and for transparency, we will be sharing results on the Proton blog after our investigation is complete.

The top comments in this tread are testiment to that bit of wisdom

9 months ago when Destin released his first video on film, I got my dads old Olympus OM1 and started shooting with it. I have to say, I totally get it. The delayed gratification of not knowing how your shots will come out, the asthetic of film, I love it. Big thanks to Destin for this new hobby of mine and I can't wait to see more in this series

Hopefully, those same customers will know better when coming to buy their next car after that, therefore reducing desire for touchscreen controls and hopefully, their extensive usage

I agree. You actively choose to listen to a certain podcast on a topic of interest but on Youtube, it is so easy to fall down the endless rabit hole of decreasing quality content and that doesn't feel like well spent low-filter time at all

As a film photography enthusiast, I love the parallels between making a chip and film development. I wonder if film developing was the original inspiration
