If you use an android phone, just create a separate account on your phone just with the apps you want the police to see. No email, photos, social media, or anything. This way you can switch to the restricted user before giving the cop your phone.

Interesting. My reasoning is that narcissistic people crave attention, which cats may not give so overtly as a dog. Basically for a dog, a person is a god and some people love that kind of relationship.

People who don't like cats.

I've noticed a correlation between people who don't like cats and having narcissistic or selfish tendencies. Could be just an impression but that's how I feel.

Don't forget quicksand... I spent all my childhood afraid of falling into it. Somehow it was an unwarranted concern.

There's also Homarr for those who prefer a nice and easy frontend to install the arr suite and more.

I love zfs. Started using it for my data storage pool and now I have it on root as well. It has some rough edges but overall it is very stable and has amazing features.

This is correct. Ive helped a bunch of people (in Linux) complaining that chrome was eating all their ram when in fact it wasn't. Memory management is hard and it's easy to look at the wrong indicators.

It does love its ram but not as much as people think.

This is an oversimplification of the problem. Many times a search engine returns useful results inside reddit. You're not going there because you love reddit as a platform, but because you need something that someone posted in there.

Bingo! The movie completely passed by me since the title was not enticing. Eventually a friend bugged me so much I ended up watching it (years later). It's a great movie.

It's a circus out there...

One of my financial institutions supports yubikeys, but does not have the option to turn off sms 2fa. A chain is as strong as the weakest link, as usual.

Another only has sms 2fa and bizarrely allows me to specify any phone number at login time to receive the code. WTF?

Most only have 2fa via sms. When you talk about using an authenticator app people bitch and moan because they have to cut and paste those digits into the login page. Oh, the humanity...

Don't even get me started on sites with "roll your own" schemes, like forcing you to install their app (which requires all permissions under the sun) just to accept a push message and allow you to login on their website.

What bugs me is: why in the fuck are they asking for people's gender? Other than medical questions (where you specify your birth gender), I think for the vast majority of cases the question should not be relevant.

And don't forget the mother of all bad interfaces game: http://userinyerface.com

Ever noticed that in every movie, when they show scenes of Mexico, the camera white balance is set way too high to produce a very yellow image?

If they really want me to install a heat pump, please go knock some heads at PG&E. 30 cents per KWh makes it really hard.

Uh oh... Looks like someone chose the $5 option...

Well, they're coming here to cast illegal votes for Crooked Joe Biden /s

It's all so sad yet they hammer it so hard that even my Trump hating friends believe this caravan bullshit.

I've worked extensively with both virtualbox and kvm/qemu. While I prefer kvm since it's open source, I could never reproduce the video performance of virtualbox. I'm not even trying to game, just use regular applications that I cannot run under Linux.

I wonder if I'm missing something.

The real problem is that these people live in a world of fantasy and prep for the zombie apocalypse. It's this quasi sexual thing where they get a hard on for shooting everyone that moves, without guilt of any kind.

The problem with their approach is that the zombie apocalypse won't happen and the people with guns are likely to be the ones starting the problem when things go slightly bad.

BTW, I have lived through natural catastrophes where we got isolated and without power for many days. Curiously, neighbors got together and helped each other. No rapists or crazy marauders. Sadly, everybody went back to their natural state of isolation once the crisis was averted.

My favorite religious saying is "God helps those who help themselves". This is a bit like that old story of the pill that kills your thirst, but you have to take it with a cup full of water.

Probably better than at&t in the middle of the city.
