Inertia, plus in the grand scheme of things CDJs aren’t too expensive for clubs. Two CDJs cost less than weekend’s worth of personnel for a small club even. If you’re a DJ that’s just starting out, it suck’s a little though. Usually you’ll

That is such a laughable statement. 1Password has incredible UI/UX. Even has e-mail masking with Fastmail. And auto-enters TOTPs, for the less-important one’s you feel comfortable saving in your password manager.

Yup. I agree with the premise of the parent post, but they A) mistook the most critically acclaimed game, it being “The Last of Us” and B) named a whole slew of “indie” titles.

That is not the same. On Brave it is just a right click and then "force paste". Plus, I suspect that setting disables the buttons on sites that copy the entire field to your buffer.

I’ve seen minimums of 8 and 12, and maximums as low as 20. AgileBits obviously has done a lot more profiling, but it would be nice if they developed a universal password formula that was still memorable. So with words, “-“ separator (or may

The problem is that many sites still use archaic password rules. 1Password should by default just always capitalize one word, and add “1” at the end of the memorable password. Since the words are separated by “-“ or “.”, you already hit the

There is virtually no use (and it’s arguably detrimental due to frame pacing) in running your FPS above your refresh rate. Any mid+ CPU will easily pump out 240FPS on Counterstrike or Valorant.

Oh, that makes it slightly less cool, although still very cool. It would have been nice if they made it a limited run (say, 100 copies) instead of singular pieces.
