One of the biggest issues is they can be recorded and potentially decrypted in the future once quantum computing attacks become feasible. At the moment, the cryptography in Signal (or similar) has no known vulnerabilities that would make it vulnerable to practical attacks given reasonable assumptions about the technology that exists in the world at the moment.

Very true. You can find many cases of that though. Just the other day I was trying to get crypto quotes and accounting inside Gnucash, which has been supported by the backend API’s since forever ago, but the interface essentially doesn’t allow for it because the developers don’t consider crypto as currency, and don’t want to support custom currencies or even just using the existing data source API for anything but stocks, derivatives and fiat currencies.

A tea bag floats though. It’s better to use the traditional balls or anything else metal that will make the tea sink so it soaks better. Alternatively, there are ceramic teapots that keep the tea leaves below the water level.

Plenty of people I know have gotten the little echo dots or the bigger alternative with larger speakers for Christmas or birthdays. Technically they didn’t spend money, but their friends and family did.

Does it make a difference that the tea is never in the microwave? It’s only the method for heating a single cup of water, not of heating the water+tea set.

Neither. Tea bags are for chumps. It’s so much tastier to use fresher loose tea leaves of whatever mix you prefer (and you can control how strong you make it, plus you end up with less waste). I just boil the water in the microwave then when it’s hot I take it out and add the tea.
