Not OP, but I store my TOTP secrets along with all my other passwords in a KeePass database and sync the encrypted database to my devices with Dropbox. All the clients I use to open a KeePass database can generate TOTP codes from the secre

Wilmot's Warehouse is basically this. It's top-down 2D. You are alone in a large, empty warehouse. At regular intervals, a truck drops off a load of assorted objects at the back, and a few people ask you for some specific objects

earthboundkid is arguing that there's no point in making the claim that one flies better than the other because that claim breaks into many subclaims; some support one position and some support the other. You named some subclaims that

If I understand what you want correctly, you'd like to be able to hit a chord that opens rofi, type (say) "python typing", hit ENTER and have your system unite you and the browser tab whose title was the best fuzzy match for

Sounds like you might enjoy reading Doctorow's essay on "enshittification". "Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers;

I, too, have been experimenting a bit to see if/how an LLM might help me. This microtask framing jives with my experience. One of the best examples so far for me (and it's truly micro) was at grocery store. Friend trying to figure

Hey, hey, now. :) We can point out incest while not making any unproven allegations about Eve or Cain specifically: When Adam was 130 years old, he became the father of a son who was just like him—in his very image. He named his son Seth.

Bought a Kagi sub in January after hearing about it on HN for a few months and I've been loving it. Was content DDG user for the past few years just to slip the Google leash, but the Kagi results are A+; definitely prefer to DDG. Edit:

They did not claim that "confidence" and "placing women on a pedestal" are polar opposites. They claimed that "being sexist in front of a woman" and "lacking confidence" are polar opposites. They also

I see nobody's mentioned TOTP support yet. My stack is KeePassXC on computers, Keepass2android on mobile and Dropbox for syncing. A few months ago I realized that both of my clients showed a TOTP option. Went digging a little and real

I recently started reading Peter Watts novels because of a HN thread that mentioned Blindsight. It's been a few weeks at this point and I've finished Blindsight, Echopraxia and Starfish and I'm halfway through Maelstrom. You

I'm not disagreeing with anything in your comment, but I did want to stress that @jononomo's comment was about being "religious but not spiritual" and yours was largely about being "spiritual but not religious"

I see your Seveneves! For me it's Anathem. Though the fact that it's the only Stephenson book I have a hard copy of probably helps with serendipitous rereads of the kind you describe. I read Seveneves once from the library and wou

Op didn't say "new and used"; they said "new and older". Since the context is that of piracy, I think it's most likely that op wasn't saying he used to buy bootleg physical DVDs for a console, but rather t

Huh. Wonder what kinds of forces drive the pluralization (or lack thereof) of nouns in English dialects? Your comment reminded me of another one that sounds odd to my American ears: "maths," as in "Tommy's always been ve
