Signal sends you a notification that says "new version available, tap here to update", but tapping it never did anything for me. I have to re-download the apk their website every time there is an update.

I agree the web app is not amazing, I use a native mail application.

Why? I have been using mailbox.org for a few years and I am very happy with it.

Walking outside with 40°C is not "enjoying the beautiful weather", it is miserable. Air conditioning only solves part of the problem.

I can pay with iDEAL without interacting with a smartphone, using only my laptop and a physical 2FA device provided by my bank. Do you know if this will be possible with Wero?

Why does it have to be a phone? Some people still use tablets, laptops and, believe it or not, desktop PCs.

> Are there any other Operating Systems than iOS, Android or Android flavors?

Like Windows, MacOS and Linux?

I did not know about this. I used it on Fedora, and I thought Fedora was as close to "default GNOME" as possible.

> I expected gnome-terminal's memory usage to be in line with konsole (KDE's default terminal), but gnome-terminal shows remarkably well in this test

In tipical GNOME fashion, they have decided to replace this largely working piece of software with on with one that places solidly at the bottom of the article's list (ptyxis).

I think it means a digital copy of a ticket or similar card.

Can I use this feature to generate an airplane ticket? :P

I think "create" is the confusing part. It should be "digitize" or something. Either this, or "pass" means something else here.

Lucky you, I guess. In all the companies I worked for I have had a company-provided Windows laptop where the OS was managed by IT. The degree of freedom (e.g. what software could I install, what websites were blocksd) varied.

I am a European in Europe and I expect the same. Why would I assume otherwise? The company laptop is full of spyware, starting from the OS. I have no reason to consider it "mine", and no desire to do so. If I want to do anything private (including things that my company would not like) I can do so from my private devices.
