Bitwarden is reasonably consistent, but you have to have recently logged into it. Before I open an app that needs auth, I open bw and unlock my vault. Most applications popup login with bitwarden and it can handle 3 stage logins usually even when the ask for 2fa before password.

Floods like this happen all the time
And if they don't it's still a very natural thing to happen
And if it's not, it's a cycle and it's been the same since historic times
And if it's not then you shouldn't build near water

It would be super cheap to make a laser difraction grid. You could map the lense deformation because you know the lines on the grid are straight. This would be solely for mapping the properties of the lens / mount and how to handle defamation profiles. Once you dial in the lens you probably wouldn't need to run it again assuming it can id the lens when you mount it.
I would say you could use red green and blue lasers and look at convergence, But I'm not sure in any decent hardware that that would actually be off

I'd think they'd handle this with calibration. It doesn't need to be as sexy as commercial, it just needs to have a reasonably easy process to fix it.
Something like when you get a new lense, you aim it at a laser difraction pattern on a clean wall.
Now you don't worry about minors differences in body or lenses.

He wants to fire the military and replace it with loyalists. Can't coup without a willing military. He gets in, that move will be paramount.
Just another of his blunders, that's a move you wouldn't announce ahead of time.

I can think of some options
Level 1: Allow uninstall of edge. They can have the engine still for store/background processes, but no user icon. You can use edge to install other browsers then remove it.
Level 2: same as level one, but it comes "uninstalled". OOBE asks you to choose a browser.
Level 3: They rip out the deep integration they knew damn well they shouldn't have done because their asses were handed to them in the IE days.

Tailscale FTW. I honestly haven't looked at the underlying protocols in years. Was using ubiquiti's implementation of openVPN but it seemed to get grumpy when you connect one user multiple times.
Poking around at available products, I had settled on zero tier and tailscale, I went ahead and tried tail scalefirst because it was basically free for my house. One month in, I had a few decent detectable guys at work join me on a trial there. Full licenses for everybody at work cost less than my Cisco refresh. And makes it so that the office is no longer a critical hosting site.

Nah, it's all good I subscribe to Linus Torvalds protection services. When the Microsoft vans get within four blocks of my address, They'll drop ship in dozens of fully-armed penguin paratroopers. After the incursion they even send in a penguin based cleaner team to help get rid of the remains.

Slightly different here, when Reddit put the writing on the wall, The people with the lowest tolerance for bullshit left. The signal to noise ratio over there went way up. As the quality dropped off, we saw more waves of people coming this way.
Basically, the people that are left over there are kind of willingly swimming in filth. It's a filtering event really. Even including the bots, tankies, whatever this is, it's far less toxic over here on a thread to thread community to community basis.

I was so excited with crumbl opened up by me. We waited two weeks to let the lines die down a little. I went in ordered from the little kiosk. Spent an incredibly large amount on it a box of cookies.
I love soft crumbly cookies. They were expensive AF, so I was really stoked.
I took them outside sat down at the table with my family and we each tried them. After the first bite we all looked at each other, kind of frowned in almost in unison said they're okay.
They're sweet, bland, just really overrated. I'd say that most grocery store bakeries probably make a better cookie.

The showing that devices work seems to be the weirdest thing. Like somebody couldn't put a large enough amount of explosive into a cell phone simply by shrinking the battery down to give it like 5 minutes of run time.
My old Note 4 had a zero lemon battery pack. It made the phone an inch thick.

Yeah, the days of your local coffee shops Wi-Fi being a problem or mostly gone. Not the VPN doesn't have a place anymore though. If you're trying to hide your downloading of ISOs from your ISP it's still a perfectly reasonable method. Or temporarily relocating yourself to another country to make a purchase or watch some streaming content both perfectly reasonable.
Of course some of the streaming providers are getting wise to this.
Cats, and apparently capybaras are an invasive species on social media. I don't hate them or anything but they show up everywhere in places they have new business being.

The Statue of Unity is the world's tallest statue, with a height of 182 metres (597 feet), located near Kevadia in the state of Gujarat, India. It depicts Indian statesman and independence activist Vallabhbhai Patel (1875–1950), who was the first deputy prime minister and home minister of independent India... The project was first announced in 2010, and construction started in October 2013 ... with a total construction cost of ₹27 billion (US$422 million). It was designed by Indian sculptor Ram V. Sutar and was inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, on 31 October 2018, the 143rd anniversary of Patel's birth.

**Slovenia** High above the village of Črni Vrh, fantastical ice formations—including spikes over a yard long—encase the trees and lookout tower atop Mount Javornik. The windswept ice, or hard rime, is the result of fog freezing after a week of snow and gales. This image appears in the December 2016 issue of National Geographic magazine.

::: spoiler spoiler Damn they got down to business right away! Loved the humor. Love the story, Cheezy streaming refs went on a little long. Fry, Leela and the Professors Voicing had a few rough spots that wouldn't have happened in the last incarnation, it honestly kinda reminded me of some of the early voicing in season 1. John DiMaggio's performance was flawless. I love that they kinda mixed in a small anthology, had most of the people make cameos. :::

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/bronze-age-sword-germany-180982399/ archaeologists excavating a gravesite in the southern Bavarian town of Nördlingen found a 3,000-year-old sword in excellent condition >Given the soft nature of bronze, historians have previously wondered whether such blades served a ceremonial purpose, rather than a practical purpose on the battlefield. A few years ago, scientists even staged sword fights in order to learn more about how the Bronze Age weapons could have been used effectively in battle, despite being much easier to damage and harder to repair than their iron successors. Hey, are you guys supposed to be playing with the artifacts? it's research!
Source: /r/interestingasfuck /u/XyRow666 I honestly found this one googling around, but XyRow666 presented a far nicer collage than anywhere else I could find. more info: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/blood-falls Roughly two million years ago, the Taylor Glacier sealed beneath it a small body of water which contained an ancient community of microbes. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, they have remained there ever since, isolated inside a natural time capsule. Evolving independently of the rest of the living world, these microbes exist in a place with no light or free oxygen and little heat, and are essentially the definition of “primordial ooze.” The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the waterfall its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within.

The Crooked Forest (Polish: Krzywy Las) is a grove of oddly-shaped pine trees located in the village of Nowe Czarnowo near the town of Gryfino, West Pomerania, in north-western Poland. It is a protected natural monument of Poland. This grove of 400 pines was planted in around 1930. Each pine tree bends sharply to the north, just above ground level, then curves back upright after a sideways excursion of one to three meters (3–9 feet). The curved pines are enclosed by a surrounding forest of straight pine trees. It is generally believed that some form of human tool or technique was used to make the trees grow or bend this way, but the method has never been determined, and remains a mystery to this day. It has been speculated that the trees may have been deformed to create naturally curved timber for use in furniture or boat building. Others surmise that a snowstorm could have bent the trunks, but there is little evidence of that. Many people have been trying to find an answer to this mystery, but since the town of Gryfino was largely abandoned between the early stages of World War II until the 1970s, the people who were there before the war and probably had the answer to the mystery of the Crooked Forest are now likely gone forever. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crooked_Forest

Ghost apples are made from a pretty interesting phenomenon whereby frozen weather coats an apple in ice. When the apple inside rots and falls out, the icy shell is left behind and you get an ice apple.
