You’ve put it very well. And as someone that lives in BC, I agree wholeheartedly.

I said this to my boss. We’re in BC and work in the marine industry. She’s really worried about, well everything, and doesn’t know how she can help. I told her we work on boats, we all have boats, there will be a new Underground Railroad, and where we are will mean boats. I’m not letting people die down there if I can help get them out.

Absolutely agree! I very much hope for the same with the democrats down south, but I am not getting my hopes up at all on that count. Up here I see a batter path for that.

I’m ok with this. I’ve voted NDP every election except for one, to remove Harper and get proportional representation. I’ve been very worried about vote splitting letting PP win so this feels to me like his way of broadcasting that it’s ok to vote liberal if that’s what we need to do. I’m lucky that I’m in a fairly secure NDP riding, but I will be voting strategically if needed. I think Carney will do a good job, and the NDP can be the push from the left to influence him, and honestly that’s not a bad place to be in. These are weird and uncertain times, we need a major trouncing of the cons, however that looks. Very much like when I voted liberal the last time, only way more extreme! He sees the writing on the wall and I just hope they retain enough seats to make a difference.

Vaultwarden! That’s the name, thank you, I had forgotten. Well, getting the server up and running is next week’s job so I will add that in. Cheers!

What did you switch to from Bitwarden, if you don’t mind me asking.

Exactly

That very well could be regional. Are you near Baltimore? I grew up around DC, but mostly in Annapolis, and I’ve always said it like cen-tar

Edit - I agree with the person below, your brain probably decided that’s how it was pronounced at a young age. There’s a bunch of words I’ve read but never say out loud because I know I will say them wrong! I should just own them, there’s too many great words out there!

You know, I don’t know why I’m surprised, it’s so on brand for him. Thank you for the detailed response!

One of my favourite books is World Made By Hand by James Kunstler. It’s a lot like Station Eleven in its a post apocalyptic setting, and how the people that are left are getting by with what they have. Apparently it’s a series of books now too, I just discovered that when I looked it up to get the authors name right, so now I’ve got more to read in that world, yay!

Thanks for asking this question, I’ve added a bunch to my reading list!

Wait, what?? I did not know that. Like never? What the fuck does he do all day?? For years???

I’m also very new to doing any type of programming, and also don’t remember things from last week lol. I use Kate, it’s from KDE which is from the Linux world but works on windows! They have some other good programs that also work on windows (and Mac too I think!) if you’re trying to extract yourself from there. I don’t know python very well so don’t know if Kate is the best choice compared to PyCharm for your use case, but might be a good allrounder.

I definitely have wanted to but wasn’t sure if I should since no one else had. I should have just done it.

I’ll second Vivaldi! There’s no other browser with that kind of tab and workspace management. It’s how my brain works. The mobile app is great too with tab groups and the sync between the two is fast. I keep Librewolf on my laptop as well for the odd website that only likes FF.

I see you’re from Iowa so probably not familiar with a lot of our news. Here are a few links to recent land and governance transfers, and modern treaties in BC. As I live here these are the ones I know about, there are probably more in other provinces. While there is still so much to be done, these are excellent starts. Cheers

Styx, black (named after one of Plutos moons, not the 80s band)

• Stixer
• Stixie

Diesel, orange (named in memory of my friends cat)

• Dieseler
• Dieselkins

Together they are Dieselbub and the Prince of Darkness. They are brothers from the same litter and we love them very much.

Edit: Gah! I just went upstairs and they’re being adorable

It is paranoid, but honestly, I’ve thought the same. I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere for awhile in any case, except maybe Greenland! Always wanted to go there.

Absolutely you can. I can get a direct flight from Vancouver Island to Mexico, but usually transfer in Van. I’ve seen direct flights from Calgary as well.

Let me give you this good advice, I’m not using it.
