And isn’t every wage increase “the highest in history”?

I was semi-related to a guy who would drag his oxygen tank to the kitchen so he could smoke by the window.

This is the biggest reason I don’t own a smartwatch yet. I want to own my own health data, and not have it locked into Fitbit or Google.

You can use both on your phone to sync with each of them, yes. Immich and Google Photos won’t communicate directly (and don’t need to).

It’s a good idea in case your Google account ever gets banned. (Say you issue a chargeback against Google Wallet or something.)

I have a lot of experience with both. As a tech savvy user, I slightly prefer KeePass. Syncing between devices is slightly more painful, but I find it to be more reliable, and it doesn’t have the attack surface that Bitwarden does. (While encrypted, Bitwarden still really wants a web server and a local database connection.)

VaultWarden is probably better for those who can’t be bothered to move a file around and want direct browser integration. With KeePass when you need a password, you’ll make sure the username has focus and then alt+tab to KeePass and hit “autofill”. Some sites won’t take “username{tab}password{enter}” and you’ll have to customize the configuration.

VaultWarden is better at prompting you to add new passwords. I prefer the workflow that’s encouraged by KeePass, where you open the app first and use the app to open the URL. (You can do this in VaultWarden too, but it’s less obvious.)

For images I highly recommend Immich. It’s the Google Photos equivalent, and it works excellently.

I use SyncThing for documents, but photos from my phone go to Immich.

VaultWarden if you want all the features without paying $40/year.

Otherwise Bitwarden will either allow you to self-host OR allow you to share passwords with one other person (using their server), but not both.

VaultWarden just unlocks all the features.

The bear isn’t likely to want to screw with you.

Which isn’t a bad idea, but I’d still want some kind of parental controls like Android has to limit screen time. I don’t need Netflix.com to be all or nothing, but I certainly don’t want it to be four hours a day either.

You also don’t get a lot of anti-vaxxers at a 50% mortality rate.

I don’t agree, but it’s a unique, interesting thought that I can upvote.

If my job didn’t pay me, I would have certainly burned out years ago. For one, I’d need another job.

Yeah, what a shame it was that people had to invest in the longevity and reputation of their business in order to keep paying them out over a hundred years.

It turns out we can have the tax rates of the 1950s and 1960s without the segregation.

It doesn’t matter. One person can’t put forth 48k lifetimes worth of effort, and they don’t deserve that much in return.

I promise the dude hasn’t worked harder than the combined efforts of 48 thousand people.

We can reward talent, and we can reward effort. But no combination of those two is as ridiculous as our reward structure. Our reward structure is flawed because people with money make the rules, and their primary rule is that people with money should have more money.

If able, you should provide enough to society to make it worth meeting your basic needs. They give you food, water, shelter, you give them back enough to compensate them for that effort.

At its root, this is what cash should be, a measure of what society owes you. You make other people’s lives X much better, and they do the same for you.

We should really be trying harder to get cash to meet this goal. A person making 60k a year for 45 years is $2.7 million dollars. You can buy a person’s lifetime of effort for $2.7 million.

Bill Gates is worth $131 billion. That’s the lifetime effort of 48,500 people. He hasn’t improved our lives that much. Something is clearly out of sorts. There’s nothing one person can do to deserve the lifetime effort of a thousand people.

It’s not about choosing a candidate, especially with Taylor. It’s about going out to vote or not.

They were fucking terrified that Taylor and Kelce were gonna endorse Biden at the Super Bowl. It’s not a coincidence that the jet thing was picked up at the same time.

And they’re afraid they were gonna get out the vote for the young, who are notoriously left-leaning non-voters.

It’s a thin thread they can use to attack a potential popular endorsement of Biden.

Some of them are genuine iterations on the existing meme, but the meme primarily exists to dampen her influence on politics.

Biden has actually been pretty great considering the limited power he has. I’m absolutely concerned about his age, but I don’t think we can get a better president than his first term without shaking up Congress.

I expect the US will hold out for at least the next 4.5 years. After that, no promises.
