Also, we first have to define more precisely what 'being 2' means. E.g., if we just count birthdays and one of them is born on Feb 29th in a leap year, that person 'ages' with 1/4 of the speed.

I use the regular KeePass 2 and love it. It looks a bit oldfashioned but is a very powerful tool once you get used to it a bit. As there are plenty of addons you can also easily extend the standard feature set with further options.

Appreciate your work and support for the Fediverse although I personally don't miss the AI-based recommendation algorithms from the big platforms. If you keep watching 'your interests' it also hardens your personal media bubble. I prefer 'dumb' algorithms like 'most upvoted', 'most controversial', 'newest' etc.

Thanks, I thought that object was some kind of lipstick. :D

My longest scuba dive so far was with my girlfriend in a German lake. There was nothing super spectacular, just some sea weed and some fishes but we spent there around 2.5 hours, floating around in the shallow water and enjoying the sun from underwater. Free diving definitely has advantages - especially because it requires almost no preparation, no need to carry around heavy stuff etc. but if you enjoy being weightless and giving your brain a little rest I'd recommend you to give scuba a try. It's both great! :)

exhale enough air out my lungs to stop floating

Get yourself a weight belt for scuba diving and you can expand your ground time a bit. Get a full set of scuba equipment and you can sit there for hours (depending on depth, size of your tanks and how relaxed you are). :)

sopuli.xyz and feddit.org are also pretty decent IMO.

I still use Firefox on PC and Fennec on my mobile. So far I have no plans to change that.

This sounds like a very weird policy to me. The mails to my account are 99.9...% mails from other services. Registrations, newsletters, order confirmations, password resets etc. If you filter out such mails, the account would be pretty meaningless to me. And if it unlocks automatically, also scammers can wait a couple of days between account creation and using it.

It's still +26% in 6 months, +58% in a year and +535% in 5 years. There's still a long way to go down unfortunately.

But at some point these rich people will have enough and all the extra wealth will trickle down, right? Right?

Do you have a source for it? As far as I know and also according to Wikipedia, this is not correct.

Direct alcohol tolerance is largely dependent on body size. Large-bodied people will require more alcohol to reach insobriety than lightly built people.

So they don't accept bills that are larger than the head of a cow. The heads themselves are a perfectly acceptable payment method.

Sure, there you go!

How about this then?

Personally, I'm not offended when referred to as '-sexual'. In general, I don't see my gender as an important part of my identity. I guess I'm 'just' cis male but I don't see that as restrictive in any way.

But thanks for your explanation! Good to know that there's a negative connotation tied to that term and other people might be offended. I'll try to keep it in in mind for future discussions. :)

Thank you for the explanation!

Edit: If you don't mind a follow-on question: Is my former binary definition applicable when we're talking about 'transsexual' rather then 'transgender'? And when someone says just 'trans' in the queer community without any suffix, does that typically refer to -gender or -sexual?
