Fair enough, as a computer scientist I got tought to use the Neumann definition, which includes zero, unless stated differently by the author. But for general mathematics, I guess it’s used both ways.

Actually, those are not the same. Natural numbers include zero, positive integers do not. She shoud definately use ‘big naturals’.

Edit: although you could argue that it doesnt matter as 0 is arguably neither big nor large

Also don’t underestimate the fact that OP has a new phone and is trying stuff out. The screen is usually one of the biggest power drainers in phones, so it could be that it just isn’t a fair comparison. I wouldn’t be surprised if the phone is just unlocked and awake more in the first few weeks compared to a phone you’ve been used to.

Keep in mind that in some tld’s (like .nl) the whois data actually dictates who is the legal owner of the domain. If you get into an argument with your registrar, and the whois data shows their name, you can’t take action to move it or reclaim it without their approval.

Also if you let it expire, for the cool off period, only the original owner can reactivate it, that means you can’t reactivate it through another registrar. Maybe your current registrar allows it, bit that’s a maybe.

I’m going to assume you’re in a country where they have the self checkout things which have a ‘bagging area’ of some sort wit a scale under it?

In the Netherlands we have selfcheckout without this weighing. You walk into the store, grab a handscanner, and as you walk through the store you can pick something up, scan it, put it in your own bag and continue. When you get yo the register, you scan some barcode on the screen of the register woth your scanner, touch your nfc bank card to the terminal, and walk out. No need to take anything out of your bag.

Sometimes they do random checks, then some employee comes over and scans a few items from your bag. But you can just let it be their problem. They’ll usually put the stuff they’ve taken out back in again aswell.

Personally I’ve been very happy with time4vps dot eu. I’ve used it for a few years untill I finally started using my own hardware. Their support is (was) super quick and helpfull and just generally friendly. At the time they were quite cheap as well.

Then again, the guy giving you that remark usually doesn’t know the difference

Yeah, great times… i kept using it as long as I could, at some point insta forced me to change my password every single time i opened it due to “suspicious activity”, then they outright banned my account completely. Never looked back (to insta) since.

I’m kind of interested on this as well. I started using proton a few months ago when my ISP stopped supporting mailservers on consumer contracts.

Should I find something else?

For the first issue thats not realy true. To access the totp key you still need the actual device with the key, it’s only now split over multiple devices. Like having multiple bank cards for the same account.

For the seccond issue: Thats a good point, I have not found a good solution for that either, unfortunately

I use vaultwarden (selfhosted bitwarden), which stores both passwords and OTP keys on my own server, which I backup regulary. This allows acces to my OTP keys from any device, as long as it’s in my local network or connected to my VPN.

Must say I really like this solution. If one of my devices fail, I have a pretymuch seamless switch to any of my other devices, which are already configured anyways, since it’s also my passwordmanager.

If the server fails, my phone, pc and laptop all still have the keys cached, so I can use those untill I’ve restored a backup.
