That seems pretty straightforward if you have experience with that stuff, I don’t have that experience.

Anki is amazing, but it’s not self hosted without some effort.

It was me, I left a bad review for the pizza place I was working for. Owner was pissed, but to be fair I waited 2 damn hours for my delivery and when it still never showed up I just cancelled the order. I wasn’t even getting a deal on it.

There are carrier based services that do fuck all for spam calls, what you really need to get rid of them is Google Assistant call screening. Yes, Google is a giant evil corporation with anti-competitive monopolies and “AI” that will lead to the eventual destruction of the Internet we know and love, but their call screener is top notch. It answers the call and the spammers have to talk to a robot to get through to you. That’s cut down my spam call volume dramatically. And if it flags someone accidentally they just say who they are and I can decide to answer.

You need to talk to someone about your risk tolerance. Clearly you’re not willing to accept short term losses and you’re going to be prone to panic selling and holding cash when you could be buying dips. Your risk tolerance does not match your portfolio.

It’s a perfectly valid way to win an argument, end of sentence.

Password managers are the bees knees if you have to use a password, I do like the authenticator only logins especially if you have an obnoxious number of sites you have to login to. I will say though, that clipboards are tricky especially in an environment where VNC/Screen Connect etc are actively used. Screen Connect especially will happily grab the clipboard contents and share it with the other user.

It’s the clipboard, you shouldn’t put secure items on the clipboard generally speaking. (We all do it anyway)

I was definitely talking about the nation of Japan and their military.

Japan wasn’t exactly a bunch of saints when it came to slaughtering civilians.

Ooh baby I like it raw

I don’t know anyone that has that low of a charisma level. Maybe like some resting bitch face extra.

The only way that works without federal prison time is to do it a huge scale and then convert it to Bitcoin as you leave the country forever to another country without extradition laws. They’ll take the cash from you at the border, and send you right back to federal prison and you’ll be unable to open another bank account.

You don’t enforce it. You trust that the person will do the right thing.

I really miss the original Napster. I got so many good songs off of there. Now I really don’t know where to find new music that I’m going to like. I feel like I’ve listed to most of the stuff out there (even though I know that’s impossible), or it’s just not a unique sound. Everything just seems to blend together even on a “discovery” mix seeded with artists I don’t listen to much.

Even now they have tools like Scaniverse that create 3D stitches of the space around you that they’ve incorporated into the game. And yeah, Ingress was and is a better game, even if the new UI is annoying.

The public library and your agriculture extension are the two easiest sources to find high quality sources.

I was at a hardware store yesterday, locally owned. I didn’t look at the hours before I walked in but they started turning off lights within a few minutes of me walking in, so I walked out without buying anything and went to a big box store. I want to support the little guys, and I respect the time of the workers, but at some point I need to get the stuff I need and my hours at work to align exactly with the hours of the little guys. 🤷

I imagine every platform has crime happening on it.

War is horrific. If we deem a military is necessary to a peaceful society to protect from threats both domestic and foreign, then we should have a draft of ALL able adults, not just the poor and underprivileged. Rich folks, political folks, and otherwise connected individuals should be subject to be put on the front lines right next to the rest of us. What that means is we might rethink, as a nation, any military action. An all volunteer military would be the next most preferable one that is paid equal or greater to the national average income with full lifetime benefits including healthcare for the whole body including mind, teeth, eyes, etc., pension, free education including masters and doctorate level education, housing, as well as meeting other basic needs of life.

Anything less than that should be unacceptable.
