I noticed it like last week, but it’s been a while since I visited XKCD back then. Probably recent.

Facing, but I use handheld one so I can point it anywhere I want. I was surprised this wasn’t common in UK even though it’s fully compatible.

That’s fine as long as you’re okay with typing it in every now and then. I would find it tedious to be honest. Past a certain point, additional security is meaningless.

You should not use lockscreen password as your master password. Chances are, your lockscreen password is much simpler than your master password. Reason why you can get away with it is because your mobile devices usually have some form of well-integrated isolated environment that can throttle brute force attacks. Your password managers probably cache your vault offline, which may be vulnerable to brute force attacks unless it utilises TPM in some way. Same goes for FDE. Online vaults probably have some sort of rate limiting so that isn’t much of an issue.

One thing I strongly recommend is being realistic with your goal. Current scheme seems a bit too paranoid.

Chaotic: Break a leg.

Bizarre: When life give you lemons…

I find it hard even though I am somewhat used to them since my first language is Korean. Hardest part for me is remembering the character shape and their associated sound. The general concept (kunyomi and onyomi, how they form words) makes sense though.

I don’t quite see how AI assisted searching would be different in terms of privacy from normal search engine from the searcher’s perspective. Biggest issue with AI in the context of privacy is that it gets trained on a lot of personal data and can also be used to deanonymise when used against others. The only kind of information you would give away to the third party uniquely in AI search engine (I think) would be your speech pattern if you are having a conversation with it instead of simply typing in keywords. Duck.AI claims to ensure your data is not used to train the AI, but there’s no way to verify if the AI provider is holding up that promise. Still it’s a good choice since you don’t have to log in.

Accuracy is not very relevant in privacy, so it would depend almost solely on what you choose as your provider.

If I were to use one, I would choose whichever you can use without logging in, and gives reasonably accurate information.

We already kinda do.

Once every week because I live in dorm. I usually go shopping for clothes and snacks with them.

Beeper covers a good number of chat platforms. I use it for Instagram and Whatsapp, and it has desktop app as well as mobile.

journalctl -o short-precise -k -b -1 shows you kernel messages from last boot, this should be a good start.

oh its you lol

• Games, though it’s more of a game company issue. I like Apex Legends.

• Microsoft Office stuff. Every now and then I need to make a presentation, and LibreOffice Impress to Microsoft PowerPoint isn’t that good. I resort to Google Slides for now.

• Cursor trails. I tried making it myself until I stumbled on the concept of hardware cursor. I still want to do it, but man, putting an image where your pointer is at is harder than I thought. So much more if you’re on Wayland apparently.

• (Lack of) general ecosystem fragmentation. I still don’t understand why I can’t paste image that is clearly present in both xclip and wl-paste over Remmina. It does work if I open LibreOffice Draw, paste it there, then copy it back, and paste it in Remmina. Emacs on Xorg is blurry and requires xwayland-satellite but smooth, and Emacs GTK is sharp but stuttery.

They really made my childhood game only to give it the most generic name possible huh

Does anyone know the name of the game that features that particular 4 coloured ball under “Anonymous” in the image? I remember that ball very well, but I can’t find the game.

It turned out okay, so no regret on that. I also found out there’s anime convention next week, so I figured I should wear it there.
