Glad to bring you joy today Ralf.

If you add the PPA https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa that might give
you a thin added layer of security so you know that noone has hampered
with your kernel while downloading it, because your package manager
will take care of the key exchange and verifying if I'm not mistaken.

You still have to trust Mark Shuttleworth because you download from
the Ubuntu Server, but since you use Mint I recon you trust him anyhow
already.
