  • So it's not actually one I would recommend. It's provided as an employee benefit through my company, and I don't particularly like my company having any relation to it at all.l and I don't like the death certificate portion.

    I'm moving back to BitWarden, which has a similar feature. It's Emergency Access, in which your delegated person requests emergency access, there is a wait period where you would be getting emails or whatever notifying you of the access request, and if you don't respond within the defined time period, access is granted.

    So it removes the identification / death certificate portion, which I greatly prefer. My BW vault ties to an email address that I use only for the password manager, not my legal name or Social Security number, so I'm compartmentalizing pieces of identifying information.

  • It's a caricature based on the creators' own experiences, blown to cartoonish proportions. Literally cartoonish. No, it is not authentic.

  • Password manager with a delegated access structure is the way to go. If my sister (who I have delegated to) requests access, provides a death certificate,and waits some cool-off period, she gets access to the portions of my password vault I designate. I will grant her access to my financials upon death, but not social media and private stuff.

    Versus writing it down and giving it to a lawyer who probably has the same opsec as their 1920s counterpart.

  • If you mean "good" example as in healthy unmasking for the purposes of having a model to learn from, no.

  • Whoo, which would be more embarrassing? Being exposed by this leak or the Ashley Madison one. I would love to see a list of email addresses that show up in both datasets.

  • Came to say "ex" too. We split when engaged and before married, so yes, bullet dodged. We went our own ways before legal/financial/possible children complicated things.

  • A loaded question is a form of complex question that contains a controversial assumption (e.g., a presumption of guilt). Such questions may be used as a rhetorical tool: the question attempts to limit direct replies to be those that serve the questioner's agenda.

  • Am I reading the techno-babble accurately?

    You would muzzle sweep your target with the trigger pressed, and it would fire as your gun is actually aimed for the most-probable strike. If off target = it doesn't fire = bullets saved and probably better targeting because the shooter isn't dealing with as much recoil.

    So even less training needed and even further removed from human decision making. Soldiers didn't murder that unarmed civilian, AI did.

  • Missing some punctuation.

    Don't. Be evil.

  • Nope, no special name that I am aware of. Other than "that bad storm in October that one year"

    The storm itself wasn't abnormally bad, it was the timing and sequence. It was very early so some deciduous trees still had leaves. The storm started with rain, then slush, then it all froze. So tree branches were overloaded with weight and tore down. Oak trees that had survived for a century were downed. Older neighborhoods and towns with power lines on poles instead of buried lines like newer communities would have now had pretty much all lines and poles torn down. Lineworkers from all over the country were brought in to help. I was too young to really follow at the time, but I'm told some of the delay was simply supply chain; getting enough new wires and poles there quickly enough to keep the crews supplied.

  • Around 48-50 hours. I didn't want to. I was in excruciating pain and couldn't take anything due to conflicting conditions. I didn't hallucinate in the way of seeing people who weren't there, but I have no idea if any memory from that stretch is real or something I imagined.

  • Lol, who's profiting? Big coconut oil?

    Maybe spreading misinformation that unscientific home remedies are a substitute for modern dentistry, but that's a larger assumption than I wish to make of OP. I'll just go with good ol', "I forgot Google search exists".

  • 🤮

  • Curious why you would ask this here instead of just doing a web search? If you don't like reading search results, you can just get an AI summary. It's at least as reliable as asking a bunch of internet randos chiming in. Here you're probably more likely to get "10W-40, twice a day" answers over serious ones.

    Personally, I prefer 5W and only oil pull once a month.

  • I know very little about the amateur radio scene and don't quite understand the impact this would have.

    When I lived in a Western US state, there was some bad weather and a child went missing. The amateur radio community heavily overlapped with first responders and search & rescue types. Completely on their own, they organized and managed a search, mustering hundreds of people efficiently, while keeping local law enforcement in the loop. Law enforcement simply didn't have the resources and relied on this volunteer hobbyist community for situations like this.

    If public frequencies are turned over to corporations, would that eliminate the ability for such a volunteer effort to spring up? Would they have to pay for frequency access and be subject to whatever limits and censorship some corporation inflicts?

  • Sure. Me. I've lived in and traveled to many states with paths that are part of the Trail. There is a very nicely maintained, popular walking and biking path in my hometown that is part of the Trail. Most people who use it probably aren't aware it's part of the Trail.
