They will just take all their oil billions and buy up battery companies at the last moment.

I know it's bad to say but MS office is a real barrier. That and done other compatibility issues with Windows apps made me abandon Ubuntu for Windows after several months where I otherwise loved it.

Tesla wasn't first but they were the only ones to really break through, finally, and make EVs viable. So many failed attempts by others up to that point. Getting past the fossil fuel mentality and industry pressures was never a given.

But he's throwing all of that lead in the trash.

Not for me. I genuinely love almost everything about my Model 3 Tesla which I've had for years. It's a pleasure to drive. But I'll never buy another Tesla because of Musk.

It's the CEOs that drive this decision for and against, not the bean counters.

That generational improvement is not the natural order of the universe. It's the result of individuals putting themselves in harms way to push for change. It's hard-fought legislation moving the cause forward. It's constitutional amendments. It's legal cases won against the odds. It's corporations jumping on the bandwagon not wanting to be seen to oppose respectable society.

But those who have always fought against the process are racking up wins. That generational change you've observed that looked inevitable is under severe threat. You cannot count on it happening by itself.

Best not to try any of the other stuff then

I don't understand. How does the site you're using the email alias for impact how many aliases you can have? I use simplelogin with a custom domain and have never been restricted from adding an alias. I don't recognize the issue you're having.

Textbook fascism

What is your bank's wealth management team doing for you? I've always assumed they were overpriced and set up to sell their own products.

So it's an end to financially strapped customers being squeezed by exorbitant late/overdraft fees to fund free accounts for everyone else.

Sounds like that was always a screwed up business model.

Also, when the CEO announces price increases and says "expects other banks will follow suit" that is designed to give cover to the other banks. JP Morgan takes the reputational hit for being first, to make it easy for the rest to raise prices also. Collusion in the open, so that JPM doesn't lose customers to competitors.

The one in the screenshot

His answer works in the context of the question. That's what this is all about.

For every proton post, can we please get a bot that auto posts these, to save everyone the effort:

• proton isn't private / yes it is / they never claimed to be
• wasnt there a case when they shared that activist account / you have the facts wrong, here's what actually happened
• [insert proton app name] for Linux when? / Linux is only x% of user base
• proton needs to finish [insert proton app name] before starting something new / they are different teams so not relevant
• proton needs to make X / no they don't
• people shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket / don't use the service then

Thanks!

They said in the announcement that this came out of the standard notes collaboration

"We built docs in Proton Drive as a joint project with the team from Standard Notes, who share our core values around privacy and security. "

Comparing proton with Microsoft like this is a joke.

Oh, I see, thanks for clarifying. I have never had a use case where I want that.

Are you sure others cannot edit? From the linked blog post:

"Share and invite anyone — Invite other users to view or edit your documents with a single click."

"Collaborate in real-time — Changes are reflected immediately, ensuring every contributor always sees the most up-to-date version."

I'm a visionary user of 5 years and am all in on proton. Waiting patiently to replace Dropbox with Drive. But the implementation of drive photos phone sync makes no sense to me. It syncs photos from the phone to drive, yes, but on a PC you can only access them via the web interface, not Windows explorer. So you can't organize them in any way and have them accessible as regular files.
