Personally, I use physical card for my main SIM. However, when I travel I prefer using eSIMs as it is so much easier rather than searching for one when you arrive in a new country. I definitely had some set up problems regarding travel eSIMS in the past. With some very known providers that I tried I always had some troubles like QR codes not working correctly or not getting service even though it showed that everything is good to go.The support would not always be very helpful and that would take me at least a few hours to get everything set up and ready to use. Until I found out about one brand called Saily that actually have an eSIM card that you have to install only once and use for all future travels. That actually was a life saver because now all I have to do is buy a plan in their app and activate it every time I travel. I only had to set up eSIM once and honestly did not have any problems there like with others. Maybe it was the easy setup or clear instructions.

Yeah, not the worst way to go about assassinations

I doubt you could accurately identify a specific person

Yeah, I agree that their marketing is aggressive, but a lot else I think is just speculation. The VPN market is very cut-throat, competitors create all kinds of crack-pot conspiracy theories to sow doubt amongst potential customers. As far as I know there was one incident, It wasn't very serious, no customer data was stolen. Also, the company now does 3rd party audits. I think NordVPN is pretty decent, but that's just me.

Interesting project!

I feel that you need a good foundation to be productive. You need to eat nutritious food, have enough sleep, set aside some time for exercise, relaxation and socializing. You can' expect to be productive if you don't have this base layer

It is definitely tough to choose, I don't know if you should discard nord vpn so quickly, recently they've been doing 3-rd party audits that proved they don't keep logs. That has to count for something right?

Has anyone read his books? Seems like an interesting way to get into programming. I enjoy reading, but I never thought that a book about programming would present it's ideas and technical details through stories.

Oh damn, I was always a bit idealistic about seafaring, and now I read that someone would describe it as prison? Yikes. And it's terrible that they can't even go home after their contracts are over.

Well, I don't like this revelation. I mean I want to focus on other things when I come back home after work. Why does it have to loom over me all the time like some ghost? I need some work-life balance for Gods sake!

Nord has worked quite well for me for the last couple of months. It's easy to use and has plenty of servers to choose from. I guess I can recommend it even though I haven't tried other vpn services.

Looks like the user just can't win - either we get super annoying and intrusive ads or poorly written ad code that slows downs pages and ruins the experience.

What if Spotify is my favorite podcast player? Since I pay the subscription it's much better than other one's with ads. I got as a music player first, getting all of my podcasts there as well is a nice benefit. I don't really see how this hurts podcasting though, pretty sure you can still host podcasts elsewhere, just that with Spotify you could reach a greater audience.
