I feel the same way about having to use Mac for work and going back to a Linux PC at the end of the day. God damn I hate Mac’s UX. From the entire UI, to the CMD key, to the fact that END functions as PGDN and goes to and of page instead of end of line.
Probably not willingly. Republican States are often horrible at updating infrastructure, and due to the lack of a well educated population, they don’t suffer much repercussion for that. Very high chance they grew up with or still have lead pipes.
Correct
Having 6 toes is as common as webbed feet in today’s world, and its not all that uncommon (I was born with 6 toes, my dad had 6 toes and fingers). They don’t have bones and surgeons just cut them off at birth these days.
In my mind the more fantastical mutations in the book make it a bit more far fetched and give it that sci-fi feel.
Turns out the city is full of telepaths like them and they refer to themselves as the “New People”
For me the most haunting thing I ever read in English class was The Chrysalids by John Wyndham.
In a sci-fi future post nuclear war the survivors in Labrador on the east coast of Canada completely reject science and all non biblical knowledge. They think everyone not made in their view of gods image needs to die, and that includes their children who begin to develop mutations due to the radiation.
The kids spend a lot of the book trying to escape the crazy, uneducated religious population and try to find a way across the nuclear wasteland that is the centre of Canada and the US in order to get to the Scientific society of survivors, who aren’t going to try and kill them, on the island of “Sealand”
I have never believed in religion in spite of being raised in a Catholic family. I read the Bible front to back young and realized it was nothing but contradictory nonsense and fantasy. For me, this novel my public high school teacher assigned to us was pure nightmare fuel.
Forgot the best one.
The French have a few examples of naming things the way they sound. Their word for bullfrog is the sound they make:
Ouaouaron
Bigger != taller explicitly
TIL… Thanks.
EDIT: Been playing with it a bit now and if it uses keepass as the DB the advantage I see right now is that having it in Nextcloud means automatic sync, and there are several autofill and syncing apps for various OSes and password sharing and automated checks for breaches. It’s probably a better option for anyone with Nextcloud than going the Keepassxc/syncthing route.
I’ve always loved Keepass, however I moved away from it in 2012 as it and any file based vault has brute forcing issues. You need to track every copy of it that has been made and if any copy falls out of your hands, like if you lose a device, you need to do a password rotation on 100% of your passwords. Since its a file, its not possible to prevent brute forcing.
Alright does anyone have opinions on Nextcloud Passwords? There’s apps for it and it would sync to my Nextcloud.
I hate this. Bitwarden has been a good app.
Not working in Signal, Fossify Gallery, Graphene’s ASOP Gallery App or Firefox for me.
? Lemmy does not have an official app. Are you reading this from Mastodon?
Animated webp? Wut? This image seems to be supported solely by Voyager… My browser and all my image apps and chat apps have no clue
Computer! Arch.
They also renamed a bunch of locations from Safeway > FreshMart and laid off career employees with years of raises and benefits and forced them to reapply under the new franchise name. Same owners, same stores, but LOOPHOLE.
Fucking assholes.
I missed this, someone have the TL;DR for the clueless?
