But that is exactly what he recommends, using a password manager - with one time email authentication for the first login as an extra step, right?

I'd be interested in a discussion of his points here :) those sound like valid points he's making

Afaik you would destroy the coating on modern lenses, making it worse. That's why I am intensely careful with mine, I only carefully wash them under warm water (not hot) with dish soap without additives, and then use a microfibre cloth to dry. Water and dish soap first to remove anything that could scratch, even microscopic stuff.

After around 4 years of this, mine are almost as good as new still.

Just finally switched my gaming PC to Linux mint. It works flawlessly. I can even re-use the steam game files I downloaded on Windows. Never going back.

I'm currently migrating my gaming system to Linux, it feels so good!

I have cloth masks that have N95 filters sewn into them and look similar

Edit: they don't have silly patterns and look much better. Just to be clear. And I do recognize that dude was probably not wearing one of those. But I was really just trying to be funny.

Anybody with an N95 mask on public transport should receive preferential treatment, though

Ridiculously expensive tea from artisanal tea gardens. Like four bucks and more per portion (which you can brew 6-12 times in that sitting, though). It's addictive and sets your standards so high, I can't drink cheap tea anymore

You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. I will try to emulate your good example

I sincerely sent an otter pic from there to my gf half an hour ago. Maybe you and I are more similar than we think.

(Why would you wash off the pain, though? You smear it unto others, that's the most fun part of pain. You can still send them otter pics.)

Yes, you could still do better, but it's there. Love you, you shitbag

(Philosophical background for this:)

We all knew it

 

Seriously. I don't want to install something on my phone when the dev is just using a WebView, if that's what it's called. When the app is basically just a website with the browser hidden.

What's the reason for that? To attach the customer? To sell the app for money? Is there more ad revenue that way? Do you reach more people?

(Are there any good reasons for it, too? Security, maybe?)

 

I once heard that in the middle of 20th century, public transportation in the USA was widely privatized and bought by automotive manufacturers, and then wilfully left to rot, so that people would buy more cars.

However, I can't find anything backing that up. Do you know whether that's true, and where I can find some sources for that?

 

I am in an intense love-hate relationship with Spotify. It makes good mixes for me, I have found a lot of great bands that way. BUT IT KEEPS REGURGITATING THE SAME SONGS IN THERE. I know about Song Radios and Artist Radios, so please don't recommend those. Smart Shuttle doesn't cut it, either.

The best thing would be several randomness sliders. One for randomness in bands, the other for randnomness of their songs, one for genres. Please tell me some music service has implemented something like that. I am dying over here.
