I use Strongbox, which is based on Keepass. I’m satisfied. It’s actively maintained and reliable.

Fine, but if we are to lower the threshold from perfect to some mistakes, then this category of error needs to he empty. Phantom braking is in a less severe category, as it is manageable. In this case, I think the driver or following car co

The paramount issue here is that the software isn't operating as intended. Reckless driving and distracted driving are compounding issues to that major concern. Rather than dismissing the accident as possible with a driver fully in con

Enough is enough. Stop using the public as testing grounds for software development and marketing defunct wares. If tech is meant to bring us the utopia we all need but don't know we want, the least that these companies who exploit pub

Your comment is the same low-quality and trite drivel that makes Reddit the contest hall for minimal effort shitposting. Why do you need to import it here?

About 15 years ago, we had a great brewery that changed the game, and it felt like all of a sudden, there were so many options and relatively little difference between them. There are only so many IPAs with so many hops that a brewery can m

The real problem here is not seeing that nature doesn’t draw arbitrary lines in the soil. What affects Utah will make its way to California. Keystone ecosystem disruption is very bad news.

You make a good point, but perhaps that one “their own” is at the helm can make a difference in ensuring trust so as to break the prisoner’s dilemma (see point 6 in the executive summary).

I don’t see why being a farmer is implicitly linked to waste. Sure he has farm interests in mind, but farmers will be among the first to really feel the affects of a dying lake ecosystem.

Interesting transition towards games as a platform. Call of Duty Modern Warfare is kind of doing this too. There are games within games. Destiny is doing this too with expansion packs and making the base game free. They are enormous IPs, a

Every damn day I try to be mindful of my state of mind. I will exercise, do breathing exercises, talk through things, write, make arrangements to sleep more the following night, or just call it a day before it even really starts. Sometimes

Yeah DOs in the US are quite similar to an MD, and MDs aren’t ashamed to call them colleagues. However, I know from experience in France that I wouldn’t expect the same care or treatment as a DO in the US. A chiropractor here might be more

I feel that. As someone who’s going back to med school well out of undergrad, I have no doubt that even with good MCAT scores, I’m still going to need to be lucky to find the right med school who will appreciate my atypical profile. I feel

The kafala system isn't going anywhere so long as we can't tell these countries to take their oil and drink it. The same thing (i.e. "sponsoring" someone by capturing that person's passport and forcing low wage labo

Buttigieg has gotten involved, and based on that, I sense a Congressional hearing is in the works. This debacle has affected way too many people at the worst time of year for it to escape public vivisection.

Seems kind of assbackwards to start baking in ray tracing to the smallest device. Is there some advantage to this?

Adding ray tracing to an iPhone screen as “overly ambitious” is one way of putting it. On that size display, is it even impressive to the user? Are devs going to design to that capability? I just don’t see the point when a lot of desktop us

I often get irritated by formulaic instructions for "strong" passwords when creating an account. I use a respectable password manager, so everything is unique and at least 10-15 characters with some numbers and symbols mixed in. O

Not to mention the point of public procuration is to bolster nascent industries. USPS must’ve identified something Oshkosh was willing to provide something special.

I take your point, but arguably the optics of burning up every last drop of fossil fuel are worse.

I’m also curious if anyone knows how to deal with people who have this condition. Scientifically or anecdotally.

Thanks. This article confirms what I have long suspected of my mother-in-law. I knew she was a narcissist, but I didn’t associate the full-blown tantrums directed mostly at my partner as part of the disorder.

I see teenagers driving these things because I think they have such low horsepower that they don’t require the regular class of driver’s license.

Libre Office. Not so sure that it integrates very well with cloud services, though I’ve not tried. It’s a bit of a step back from collaboration on a Google Doc. However, for basic functionality, I’m quite fine with word processing on Libre

I'd expect better from Nassim Taleb. He's lost the thread on this one.

Good for them. Not that it's bad to talk about it, and we have the BBC, The Guardian, and other investigative journalists to thank for bringing this out into the light for the past decade, but the time for action was actually a decade

You are absolutely right. I think these companies have only gotten away with the business model because the scooters seem to have less maintenance costs or are cheaper to replace. Many bikeshare companies pulled out of Paris because people
