It's been a while since I checked last, but worked for me. Twitter needed some attempts sometimes.

A huge data center of OVH burned down a while ago.

I've seen the image in the Hetzner interface, but I wonder what's the benefit of using Arch as a server? I use Arch on my personal computers, but I'd be a bit afraid of using it as a production server. Is it that people want to use what they are used to?

 

Probably has nothing to do with the negative reactions over their new payment features

I can't see WhatsApp and Telegram in there. Were they not contemplated or are they actually better that these (doubt)?

I almost forgot about this, but with banks that are not online-only banks, you can still hand in bank transfer forms on paper. It's tedious obviously and may take longer, but it works.

I don't know the details of PSD2, but you can still pay with SEPA without biometrics if SEPA is available in your country. Some banks support 2FA via SMS when you don't want to use their app.

This is exactly why climate change denying became popular and acceptable, because the media thought they had to represent counter arguments for everything, no matter how big the consensus among scientists was. Adding different viewpoints just for the sake of it will not fix biases but introduce other ones.

Telegram works very well but is a nightmare from privacy perspective since they store everything* unencrypted as long as they want. They even call themselfes "cloud messenger".

(*) everything but the e2e chats you can set up but are barely used since they can't be accessed on desktop and there's no e2e for groups

Looks pretty telling about who's active in that sub that the adblock comment is getting downvoted that much. Do people really want to get relevant ads shown, when they just could see no ads at all? Block everything.
