As a kid another kid regularly bullied me. Nothing extremely serious… pushing me, grabbing me, putting me in a headlock, stuff like that whenever he felt like it and/or wanted something. Parents and teachers were not able to stop it and I basically just got retaliation. One day when he came at me I simply kicked and managed to hit right in his balls. He ran away crying. Never bothered me again afterwards. Still feels good.

For nougat, the Milka stuff is better. If you want real chocolate, take Caotina.

You can easily turn it into a “pubic display” once it’s set up.

Notesnook locked my session every other week requiring me to authenticate again. But it doesn’t even do this like every other app out there, it first asks for the TOTP code and then for the password. So reverse from how password managers work, requiring a lot of manual back and forth.

So quickly writing a thought down sends me into a chain of context switches and completely disrupts me.

I gave up after a while. Happened on all my devices too, so it wasn’t a weird setup either.

LP is probably very audit-friendly … (in regards to its stored data).

Well, welcome to society, which consists of different types of personalities all mixed together. You want to stress-out everyone else too. That isn’t better. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. As others said: the solution is to have individual exemptions, not preventing everyone from get-togethers in the first place.

Edit: btw. not even “introvert” is a good-enough category. I am also introvert and am completely depleted of energy after a day in the office or a team event. But I still enjoy it. You need to force me to attend, but afterwards I am typically glad I did.

I’ve worked in many projects where I met people only over phone and WebEx or similar. It was always pretty “dry” and tensions rose quickly whenever shit on one end hit the fan. Typically after just one personal meeting (kick-off, war-room, whatever) that changed completely. You start to joke together, you let your guard down more easily. You talk differently, even on the phone and in virtual meetings then.

I also often enough witnessed people bitch at each other over some formulation in a pull request or a comment in a chat room. In person they completely behaved differently and were able to talk it through.

Not everyone ticks the same, but in a large team you can be sure to have at least some people who have an easier time reading body language than hearing nuances in a voice filtered through a microphone. And for these people it’s then less stressful to work stuff out in person.

A few social events make sense. Working completely anonymously doesn’t work IMO. Meeting someone in person is completely different from seeing them on a screen.

I hope they also add results for “kids swear”.

What if they go “sure, I’ll get you some”?

But you typically can’t influence time, while you can influence distance travelled. The faster car will get you further in the same time than a slower car. So IMO distance (travelled) is the better measurement.

I used Bitwarden a lot but it pissed me off that I couldn’t add new entries while offline, that accessing attachments requires me to be online as well, and that attachments are not part of the backup.

I switched back to Enpass due to that, which has even a slightly better UX IMHO. It’s not FOSS though, but uses the FOSS sqlcipher library for storage. So if push comes to shove, I can still exfiltrate my data without relying on the vendor.

Sweet. I guess I will use that for a month or two and then reevaluate.

That’s nothing. Let me tell you about the time I looked for a new toilet…

Which is why Mr Robot was an outstanding show. Everything they showed was plausible and they didn’t throw around random terms to sound nerdy.

I pirate what I can’t get by reasonable means within my boundaries.

I pay for three streaming providers constantly. If the one series I want to watch is on a fourth provider, they can fuck off and I’ll just download it. Same if the offering gets moved out of a provider I use (because their license expired or whatever).

Games I typically don’t pirate, since Steam is just too damn convenient. Epic Exclusives though… well, if possible I just avoid them.

Most books can be bought via Kindle store so that’s also convenient and I just do that.

Music is basically close to equal on all streaming providers so I am mostly good with that. If something isn’t I either buy them on beatport or just rip them off youtube (so pirate).

I basically live GabeN’s theory: piracy is a service problem. Give to me without having to bend over and I gladly pay. Try to fuck with me and I shrug my shoulders and go elsewhere.

Is it much different from other savory food that comes with a sweet side dish? Just as cranberry fits to venison, the taste of pineapple fits the ham those pizze typically are covered with.

But if you consider that both are drunk, it gets even more complicated. Sure, you can’t rely on the consent of a drunk person. But if you are also drunk, you can’t even rely on your own judgement of the situation… and you likely are not aware of that.

[X] Shaaauuuuuun!

Believing in karma isn’t bad, though. If it helps being a better person, then why not.
