Am I the only one who has decided that I'm more comfortable with iOS and an AppleID than I am with something like LineageOS and still having to have a Google account - even though I prefer Android? I'm operating under the assumpti

Syncthing is awesome. It is more difficult to setup than something like Dropbox (though, scanning QR codes is pretty easy IMO), but that has gotten exponentially better over the last year or so via the community and it seems to only be gett

I've been using DuckDuckGo for about the same time frame and have had a similar experience. At first it was painful, but at this point it's extremely rare that I can't find what I'm looking for in one search with DDG.

I work from home four days a week and commute one day - usually around 2 hours round trip. I get paid less at this job than I would if I was willing to commute to the city where my office is located. But I consider the mental and emotional

Fastmail is fantastic and their policies and pricing are fantastic as well. Really happy with them, and moreso after this story and the recent DDoS troubles they went through.

I would be really curious to see if this sort of strong arm tactic actually works for them. Part of me wants to see them implement it just to see if their users cry loud enough to make them revert, but I have a feeling the vast majority wou

I did read the article and I personally know numerous LEOs (result of living in a small rural town), none of whom would begin firing into a locked door because of a reported burglary. Your point about life-or-death situations is valid, like

Why would she not plead her case behind her locked door? Pass her ID under the door first, explain the situation, and THEN come out? It seems a lot of the situation could have been avoided. I don't think they were going to shoot her th
