I'd like to see how a dry heat compares because I've always heard it was better. This past week where I'm at in the states has been terrible, triple digit heat (I think it was 102 on Wednesday) with super high humidity and ridiculous UV levels; the air is thick and like a blanket wrapped around your head the moment you walk outside. Nights have been upper 70's-low 80's, I know it could be worse (thank god for a pool and AC), but this is way hotter than when I grew up.

I know everyone has their own opinions of them but I'm a fan for what they are. Right now I have 3 of them that I've gathered over the years (one with ESXi hosting my firewall, one with TrueNas for backups, and one with ProxMox for a few LXCs).

Overall, they are great little boxes, I had three of them in my living room for years when I was renting and they were pretty much completely silent after boot. The dual core celeron that comes with it works, but can be upgraded to a Xeon e3-1265l v2 (quad core + HT) for $25-50. RAM I think maxes at 16GB, but if you want a box to run a dozen light services or so, its not a bad box (insanely quiet and pretty power efficient).

If you self host vaultwarden you won't have an SMS backup, but provided you need the code to login to something online, you can log into Vaultwarden from anywhere with an internet connection.

Like many others in this thread I love Aegis, I regularly back it up to my nas and it hasn't failed me yet, but I also selfhost Vaultwarden. Recently I've found myself copying a lot of my secrets over so if I don't have my phone, I still have a way to use TOTP.

When my paid service started giving me ads I stopped watching it. I've been paying them since before streaming and in the past couple years stopped paying because T-Mobile started paying. When T-Mobile quits paying we'll close the account.

I'm gonna be the guy seconding it. It actually makes it feel like your own device. My favorite part is how each time you go to install an app it asks you if the app should have network access before it ever installs.

I've had direct deposit for every job since around 2004, before that it was a paper check on payday. Really I signed up for direct deposit after my manager gave me a hard time when I came in to pick up my check on a day I called out sick.

Not really sure about that one, I've been able to transfer money with my banks app for more than a decade. Not all US banks are created equal.

The argument could be made (and probably will be) that they promote those activities by allowing their algorithms to promote that content. Its's a dangerous precedent to set, but not unlikely given the recent rulings.

Or, you set your steam account up as a company. Still a "person" for legal purposes, but can be handed down.

Totally just joking, but maybe..

Ahh yes, the wealthiest country on Earth and if you're pregnant, it would not be economical to not be beaten by a POS human that beats you and your child.

Seriously though, had she left and crossed state lines, she could have lost both her kids.

I was under the impression the reason she couldn't leave was because she was pregnant. I'll reread the article, but I didn't notice it being because she was entitled to half the property they acquired as a couple.
