When I was somewhere in the late single digits to 11 years old I loved it. The idea of an overly complicated city wide scavenger hunt that had you solving riddles was just plain exciting. Rooting for the underdog? My new hobby. The whole thing was a very fun fantasy and everybody seemed so cool.

I watched it with a buddy a few years ago and "meh" about describes it. This is coming from someone who still genuinely laughs and dick and fart jokes =/.

It was however pretty easy to enjoy and make fun of some. I could not get over dudes plastic hat either, I want one.

Microsoft pivoted to Skype. Saved you a click and reading about 1000 words.

I'm not even interested in the username of the person I'm responding to. I tend to ignore it completely unless there's a comment like "lol, username checks out".

There are very few times I will bother to check someones profile. They have to either say something so awesome that I want to see more, or have given a take so hot I want to see if they're trolling or if this is standard behaviour for them.

While it looks like the whole Jerboa/"miscommunication" thing has been sorted out here I want to chime in to say that no, I don't think that checking profiles for anything is a reasonable expectation.

I must have been way out of it late last night. I totally missed that you were asking why people do it and not looking for recommendations. Sorry for the spammy nonsense response to your OP.

To the latter question, I've seen devices that do OTP and FIDO in addition to basically storing arbitrary strings (e.g. your cc number).

I get harassment scolding me for using Lemmy to advertise when I mention any of the products by name, despite having no affiliation with any of them outside of being a user, but they're not hard to find if you look.

I'm curious why your listed options are all software that runs on the internet as opposed to a piece of hardware that you connect to your devices.

Is that just because this is the self hosting community?

Why not a piece of hardware instead of self hosting, cloud hosting, etc?

"Is anyone else constantly getting logged out of slack?" - The last message I ever got from my favourite co-worker.

Seems like an appropriate place to share https://github.com/agarrharr/awesome-cli-apps

I'm a fan of ripgrep and lsd in particular.

Check out the fzf docs. It ships with helpers that offer better shell integration than you're getting here.

It's unbearably foggy and dreary like that 24/7 365. Would not recommend a visit let alone moving to Seattle.

Again: It's terrible all the time, please stay away.

Tiling WM that you are not sure you want to get into: Sway. It's a great alternative to i3 IMO.

What I use when I care to put in the effort of setting something up in great detail: Enlightenment. Some may argue that it's not "lightweight", but you can readily include only the bits you want, and avoid things like network config guis and system tray apps or whatever it is that you don't want. Even when you're using "all the things" which is not technically "lightweight" what it IS is performant. Oh, it's also very pretty.

 

In the last 15 seconds of the song I've linked to there's a guitar solo with a super cheesy early 80s tone that I love.

I'm curious what's typical for this sort of sound. I've just recently started trying to take more active/conscious control of tone so my ear for this stuff is weak. I think I hear some flanger, light to mid gain, and a lot of delay, but that's about all I got.
