It's the other way around for me. Telling people holds me accountable and adds some external motivation.

Many cuisines have a version of eating raw beef: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steak_tartare

If done correctly it is perfectly safe and incredibly tasty.

Oh yeah the gross mortage payment stays the same. But over tme less of it is tax deuctible. Sounds like that system is the same across the countries.

We have different types of mortages, but most (maybe all, at least the most common types) have a fixed rate over 30 years. Maybe variable rates exist, but they are at least very uncommon. Shorter mortages are also possible I think but are of course very expensive.

One weird thing we have is that part of the interest you pay is tax deductible. (Progressive parties are i.m.o. rightfully trying to abolish this subsidy for the owning class, but I digress.) for this reason there is a type of mortage where you first only pay the interest, and slowly start paying off more and more of the mortage, which means your net mortage fee slowly increases over time, which is nice if you expect your income to increase over those decades.

I'm Dutch, just bought a home, and I've never heard of that.

Edit: I think that is called an "aflossingsvrije" mortage, banks stopped providing those after 2008 for obvious reasons.

Eidt 2: Apparently it still exists, but can no longer be used to finance an entire house. From my research it is often still possible for up to 50% of a house's value. It was also not an option in the way we bought our house.

Tbh firefox performs great and works for me, and its issues can be fixed with extensions and settings, both on desktop and mobile. I never looked for anything else myself. I also like to use a browser that is not chromium-based, I do not want google to have the monopoly.

maybe I am just not picky, but if you need more privacy than what can be achieved with a hardened firefox config you might be better off using TOR at that point.

Yeah but now it requires two spellslots. Damn wizard council

Spiderman is Albanian

Easy. Agree on the price in a more stable currency, and pay the equivalent in crypto when the work is done.

I wouldn't recommend this for any information you would like to keep private, as most browsers send everyting entered into the address bar to a search engine by default. But otherwise that would definitely work.

I personally often open a text editor and put the information in there without saving it in a file.

Oh wow this is very embarassing very sorry about that. Edited to include the proper link.

Cybersecurity professional here, I'd read up on Kia's responsible disclosure policy, to avoid any potential trouble, and for guidelines on how to disclose it to them and handle this ethically.

Unfortunately they don't do bug bounties, which is too bad.

Edit: I wouldn't listen to people telling you to lock the car, exploit it in other ways or disclosing it to the media first. That is unethical at best and illegal at worst.
