  • Maybe 21 <=> 100 is just the easiest cross over point between the two age scales. Its easier to remember than 18 <=> 85.5 or 16 <=> 76.2 so that’s where they start. They arrive at an equivalent age of 15 and deem that to young. No information was ever given about what the age of legal drinking is. Just that it is older than 15.

    Also dwarven ale might be straight schnaps with 80% alcohol for all we know. Don’t want 16 year olds drinking that even if you think beer is fine.

    If it is even possible for it to hallucinate a session, it is implemented wrong. It should start transcribing once the session starts and everything it transcribed is saved as that session. Once the session stops the AI is turned of. It never has a chance to hallucinate a season because the AI never decides what a session is.

    But we all know the AI will run permanently with full access to read, edit and delete everything…

    Yeah measuring in diameters is pretty strange but it was the first thing that poped into my head that would yield factors of pi.

    Could also be that they a standard unit (1u) and would use both 1u radius wheels and 1u circumference wheels.

    Or its all derived measures like “the length of a wheel spoke” and “the length of a string around the same wheel” so never the actually physical wheel is used for the measuring.

    Maybe we should ask the tired archeologists?







  • If you do not set a master password for the browser (that you have to type before the saved passwords are filled in), the despite what others have written, the passwords are not really encrypted. They are, it just doesn’t matter. Because they are encrypted with the password of you OS user. So they are unreadable if someone steals your device or to any other users on your system, but any malware that runs in your user context has full access to the passwords any time you are logged on to the machine.

    Of course if you have malware on your system they can also log your master password as you type it, same with any other password manager. If you unlock the password save, it is available to malware in that moment.

    Also if you use passwords for anything other than websites you should have a password save for those passwords as well so why not have one single save instead of one in your browser and one outside of it.

    Tl:dr saving passwords in your browser is fine but you should absolutely set a master password. External password manager can be more pragmatic compared to browser only.



  • I heard the wisdom once that you should self host everything except for email. I’m sure there are great tools to make it manageable but the effort/gain is just very high.

    Just find a email provider that let’s you connect your own domain, use wildcards, etc.

    Of course email is pretty central to most digital identities, as most accounts can be reset through email. So if you absolutely want to be sure you control your identity you must self host email (but you also must own the authoritative DNS for that domain so you must register directly with the TLD and not through a registrar …)
