KeePassDX. Uses the same KeePass 4 database format. You can keep your database synced between devices using any number of file syncing services, allowing you to choose one you feel matches your threat model

Gotta use the ssh kitten

Welcome to the addiction hamster wheel. You coulda got into opioids, but instead you went with mechanical keyboards

Only New York. It means all the parts of New York state that aren't New York City

Its for their cloud instances. Just like you wouldn't actually run Amazon Linux. If you're using their cloud platform it's absolutely the best option, but in all other scenarios you wouldn't think to touch it

The Lemmy codebase is incredibly idiosyncratic

So! Personally, I would recommend against anything that requires you to use their platformed client like Tutanota and Proton. Don't get me wrong, they're both excellent services, but ultimately, they sit antithetical to the point. Making email secure and private and good is hard, bordering on impossible. To accomplish that, you have to jettison core components of email protocols out that stand in the way of making it a secure and private and good messaging service, core components other email vendors will be making heavy use of. This can be fine, as I'm sure you've experienced with your tuta account, most of the time, up to the point where you have to do something weird like "email your parents who don't really understand technology"

Instead, I'd recommend going the complete opposite direction. Find you a vendor like https://mailbox.org or https://posteo.de whose offered services are "We take your money, give you an inbox, and we don't sell your data because that's what we take your money for." After this, there are things you can do to make your email almost secure, almost private, and almost good, but nothing will ever compare to sending messages over a good protocol like Signal Protocol, XMPP, or Matrix (all of which use shared protocols under the hood to ensure secured messaging with forward secrecy).

The bottom line, effectively, for me, is that I want to always be looking for platforms that are making as best use of standards-compliant protocols as possible rather than presenting any form of platform lock-in. It makes it easier to recover from a disaster this way because there will be other platforms with the same protocols available, and interoperability between disparate platforms will be much easier.

Seeing this meme has set me on a Mr Sunday Movies binge. I'd been off them for a bit since they were mostly covering things I wanted to see and didn't want spoiled

I don't know about Mental Outlaw specifically, but there's a vein of FOSS YouTube influencers who are very American libertarian in nature. And the important thing to understand abour american libertarians is they are largely fascists. They fly don't tread on me and pro cop flags together. Its not that theyre anti authority. They're pro authority beating up minorities. Does that make sense?

I'm going to give what I've realized newer folks to Vim think is a scorching hot take: VimL is nice. Theyre the same editor commands you use in your day to day life, even if you're using NeoVim + Lua, just all written out in a file.

That said, using NeoVim + Lua makes it far easier to organize your config, which also makes it easier to write more complex configs. It's like the difference between building a shed around back for your home office vs building a cathedral. Its fine to work in a shed, but once you know you can build a cathedral, you're kinda tempted to just up and do it

VS Code + vim plugin is sooo slooow. I'm happy it works for you but I can't wait to finish on boarding my onboarding buddy so I can go back to vim where I belong

It's not even quality memory foam. There's a world in which shredded memory foam could be a good pillow, but the MyPillow isn't even that

I'm not annoyed at this one. Republic of Gaming and Gaming Laptop are two chunks. ROG is the brand. Gaming Laptop is the product

No, so they invade it in simpler, more pervasive, ways

Keep in mind a right wingers view of the left is like a Catholic's view of satanism, agnosticism, and atheism. The assumption isn't that the left wants fundamentally different things, the assumption is that the left wants different means to the same end, that end being a controlled world view. When right wingers create these things, they tell on themselves. They present what the left wants as simply being fully in opposition to their target audience thinks about. They view left and right as oppositional parties thirsty for control. It doesn't matter if the reason the left defended Bill Clinton in the 90s was that impeachment should be used to curb illegal behavior, not for personal petty squabbles. That's how the right uses impeachment trials, so that's their presumption of what the left uses them for, too.

As for the things the left does want but don't appear here? These are things the right doesn't conceive of as being actual aims. No public transit? That's because they do not care about or think about it

wobbles hands capitalism!

Reddit SEO captured them. They got shitty because they stopped growing, and when a community stops growing, it decays. And yes. They're absolutely better

"Hes just a man, no older than my friend Gary, who's around my age now that I think about it"

They want both the queer dollars and the conservative family values dollars. They produce what they believe will be the most marketable to the most people.

Academia is a scam and in a lot of ways the only reward for locking yourself into it is the opportunity to tell young people to just follow your narrow path to success. And I'm not saying everyone in academia is a trying to scam students, I mainly mean that PhDs lack objectivity on how the world works because they're so locked into their weird little corner of the world and view of as fine and normal
