You should never give up your right of way under the guise of being courteous. It's unsafe for everyone, and even in the best scenario it still causes frustration to all drivers involved.

Dont be polite, be predictable. And that means taking the right of way when it's your turn!

6 deserves what they got.

They're making the (possibly false) assumption that density will stay the same, so size must grow with weight.

Of course, it's equally likely that size will remain constant. It changes or it doesn't -> 50/50 odds. Until the point it all collapses into a black hole.

I always surround my passwords with tags.

KeePass with inputstick. It's a device that plugs into a USB A port, and your phone talks to it via Bluetooth. It emulates a keyboard (and mouse if you want), and there's a KeePass plugin for KeePass2Android.

You open one of your password entries, click the username, and it types the username on your computer via inputstick. Ditto for passwords and totp or other fields.

You can also use inputstick to just remotely control your computer, albeit locally only and without a monitor connection. I've used it to control my raspberry pi or android TV, aside from password entry.

With this, you can have your password database be completely offline and your computer have no lasting knowledge of your passwords. Of course, a keylogger would still get the passwords that are "typed".

I've had one of these $40 devices for a few years. I don't use it too often, as I tend to synchronize my KeePass database on all of them, but it does come in handy. I wish the developer of the hardware made a usb-c one, but it works with usb-c to usb-a dongles.

My wife has an iPhone, but I have an old iPad hooked to her account. I can see where all the air tags are, and locate them or activate the noise function. For traveling, there's no real benefit to having an iPhone vs an iPad.

The main bonus that the newer IPhones have is the ability to locate them like a homing device. If you're within 30 feet, it will actually tell you which direction and how far away it is. Like a compass, it points you towards the air tag, letting you get to within a foot or so to find it. For locating a lost item at home, it's much easier to use the iPhone.

But for gps tracking, the basic Bluetooth check in network with apple devices gives you the location of all the devices, within a few meters or so.

It was only a drone strike. It's not like it was a wave or anything.

Eh, it varies from person to person.

I want to try this, too. Make it more possessive, though. The 15th of 2023's August. Really add to the confusion.

I wouldn't go as far as to agree it's the best, but it is delicious.

[-] Futurama@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I agree with this idea. But it would make it harder to pick up your phone blindly and know which end is the top. I instinctively feel for the usb port on the bottom so it's oriented correctly by the time my arm swings it into view.

Agreed. FairEmail is my goto choice. They're both open source and on F-Droid.

FairEmail does have a $9 license you can buy to add extra features, but even without the license, I found it to be a nicer app than K9.
