It may well be worth it! (even for me; as I said, I do floss occasionally) I just have a sort of immune reaction against "It's only <x> a day!" type things, where it's easy to miss how much that adds up to. I'

Exercise is great for a pile of things, to be fair. Losing weight is just not one of them.

Five minutes a day is an appreciable portion of my waking life. Granted that's only like .5% of the rest of my life, but do I really want to spend one of my 200 activity tokens on flossing? (That said, I do floss sometimes, but 5-minut

I've found a clear split between sites which are topic-focused and sites which are person-focused. Also smaller communities tend to be better. That said, Hacker News is unusually good even for a topic-focused site.

We are using "capability" as a term of art here. Frankly, I'm not sure there is even a colloquial meaning of "capability-based security". Approximately no-one uses that phrase unless they're talking about capab

(not the GP) I tried it again last year some time and it was neither as configurable nor as stable as 3.5. Granted, maybe it's just rose-coloured glasses, but Trinity DE still seems to provide a better experience for me to this day.

I regularly get texted passwords for work, and the difference between I and l on my default Android SMS app is one or two vertical pixels difference in height. O and 0 are also pretty similar, but o is clearly different.

It does sound like a scam, but if you've ever tried to use a Microsoft account (I have to sometimes for work) you'll eventually land on a pile of domains that look like scams, and bizarrely want you to type in your password in a U

Ubuntu is bizarrely terrible for being the main recommended distro. I have to assume they're heavily focused on the server space these days. It even shows ads when doing cli software updates these days! That's part of what people

Ah, gotcha. I thought you were suggesting code could never be stable even on a stable underlying platform. Certainly it's not guaranteed.

Honestly, that's just a sign the software on your phone isn't stable. (most modern software isn't, to be fair)

I definitely sympathise with the confusing and scary command names! "reset" is the worst in my opinion. Rebase is kind of the natural choice once you understand the data model, but it doesn't necessarily make it more approach

I moved from Protonmail to Migadu and am happy with them. They support standard protocols and otherwise get out of the way. They also seem to be paying the Sourcehut guys to make an open source webmail client for them, which is cool but I w
