1. Have an exit plan SSRI can be life changing for some people, in a very positive way. But definitely not for everyone or at the first time. Have a plan with your doc on what to do if things get worse, and if needed on how to stop taking t

There are projects out there trying to make it easier for beginners, like Yunohost, FreedomBox, and FreedomBone. YunoHost in particular has a nice community, they are worth supporting if you're into democratizing self hosting.

Until the grid decarbonizes, this is what is actually happening. Maybe in the future we will all have houses capable of producing 2kW energy for cooking. An efficient rocket stove outperforms induction if you take account externalities, whi

And you get somehow 2kW power from that renewable source. Good luck with that. Figures are grid averages, so it reflect the current reality.

The problem is "induction cooks by themselves" is a fictional entity. How do you get 2kW power autonomously in a cities where the majority of the world population lives nowadays?

The comparison is not incorrect, it takes into account externalities, which if you are environmentally minded is the right thing to do.

The large majority of people use the grid, so it's very relevant IMO. But yes, if you somehow have your own source of energy to power a 2kW it's excellent.

Keepass was found to have a security issue recently which exposed password in plain text on log files, which makes me happy I never used it. KeePassXC had no such issue. That was CVE-2022-0275 https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin&#

Keepass was recently found to be less secure and expose password in plain text in some situation. Depending on how your OS deals with drag and drop, might not be the safest option. BTW KeepassXC did not have the same issue.

There are browser extensions but you might not even need it if you use the Autotype function.

I sync the (strongly) encrypted database throughout my devices with Syncthing and it works flawlessly. I have an old laptop with syncthing running always on to avoid sync conflicts.

On Linux at least you don't really need a browser extension and can arguably reduce the attack surface You can use global Auto-type which brings up Keepass window where you can pick from relevant entries. You can a Global keyboard shor

Yes, induction cooking is in par with a typical open fire in terms of electric efficiency. https://www.lowtechmagazine.com/2014/06/thermal-efficiency-c...

Gas is the worst for air quality, in particular with certain types of cooking and the self cleaning cycle some have. But people with electric cooking devices can still have high pollutant levels without proper ventilation. https:/

The major con of induction though is the very poor energy efficiency: 15% That's on par with a typical open fire. https://www.lowtechmagazine.com/2014/06/thermal-efficiency-c...

It's a merely symbolic move. Cyber forces don't need a NATO badge to operate, or to cooperate with NATO. How does this inconvenience Putin exactly? From his perspective, it's already a given NATO is working with Ukraine very

An absolutely unnecessary escalation towards the full involvement of NATO. We all lose, doesn't hurt Putin a bit.

I see the mirror of NATO interventionism and US exceptionalism deeply marked in your words. Putin was too proud to enter NATO the bureaucratic way, he was asked to fill out the form. A big mistake hurting everyone.

Apparently Ukrainians have surrendered now. What a nerve wrecking situation. In the heat of the moment deciding when is the right time to surrender. Probably the smartest decision of the day.

Oh just because the government is hostile. So if the government is "friendly" we can safely keep exploiting the workers? That pretty much describes how the US is going.
