Yeah, that’s a fair point.

Phones have this neat thing called a web browser that you can use to access your bank and if you can’t use a web browser to access it then honestly you should switch banks because that just shows that your bank doesn’t give a fuck about you and that you are the product because they have proprietary shitware on your phone

If you don’t hold it, you don’t own it. Unless you take the DVD from them, you can’t remove their access to the movie stored on that disc.

And every tool humanity creates can be used for both good and evil.

You can use a hammer to build a house or you can use a hammer to kill somebody by hitting them over the head.

A car can get you distances that would have taken a horse and buggy days, or it can be used to hurt people in crowds.

Nuclear energy can be used to destroy a city or light hundreds of millions of homes for decades or centuries.

There is no tool that is inherently good or inherently evil. The person wielding the tool is what determines how it is used.

Try this one.

They have slightly lower density right now, but there is work to increase the density, and it could very well get up to about 210wh/kg which would put it directly on par with current lithium ion batteries. So it could replace the low end of the EV market without any significant change except for a reduction in price by a lot.

You can already kind of use them now, although they could still use some work from what I can tell.

I’m going to have to read this, because my knee jerk reaction answer is that it depends on what type of wash you want to give the car. If you want to give the car an actual wash at the car wash, you’re going to have to drive it. But if you’re wanting to wash it at home, then it doesn’t matter how far the car wash is away. Because you can just walk out your front door and grab your water hose. and soap and shit.

This is exactly my reason for using it. I love the third-party apps, and I love that it’s not owned by some corporation. Another thing I like is the resilience. Your particular instance may be down, or if cloud flare is down, several instances could be down, but the entire network is not going to be down.

I’m sorry, but I really don’t see what you’re trying to convey. The people I give my passwords to also don’t use cloud password managers.

PThe master copy stays on my device. If I need to give somebody access to a specific password, I just give them that password locally and they put it in their password manager for that account.

Same thing occurs if they need to give me a password. They give me the password. I put it in my password manager and then I’m the one who updates the flash drives on the rotating basis like I mentioned above.

I store my keypass database on several flash drives in different physical locations and update them several times per year to make sure that even if I do lose the copy I have, the versions on the flash drives, not at my physical location, are decently up to date, and so if I do lose any of the password data, it will be only for a couple of months worth if that.

If I add things that are extremely important, such as a new mortgage provider, or some sort of financial data into my keypass database, then I do an unscheduled immediate update to all of my flash drives in different physical locations to make sure that they all have that, but if it’s just a social media account, and I was to lose access to it, and not have the password for it, then… I wouldn’t be too upset about it.

In the absolute worst possible case, I stand to lose 3 months worth of data. It’s not often that I have to tweak stuff in my password manager, so that would be very few changes.

You will use Monero or Parrish.

No, seriously though, the circular economy is growing and by contributing to it, you are giving the middle finger to these fuckers.
