Any chance you can upload those versions to archive.org?

Thanks! They seem to encrypt everything too.

Items contain overviews and details which are encrypted separately by the vault key. We encrypt these separate so that we can quickly decrypt the information needed to list, sort, and find items without having to first decrypt everything in the vault.

Item overviews include the item fields needed to list items and to quickly match items to websites, such as Title, URLs, password strength indicator, and tags.

I wonder what 1password does

I _love_ Copilot but the only reason I use it is because I qualify under their open source developers program, I just can't justify paying $10/month for it.

I'm very tempted to get Affinity 2 for that price but lately I've found that most Mac apps tend to release major versions weirdly often and in that case there's not a lot of difference between having yearly subscription and paying to update once a year.

I bounced hard from Factorio because it feels like work so... sure, it makes sense.

I feel programming languages for interactive fiction are the only place where non-english projects have any chance of being useful.

Inform7 in spanish would be neat to have for kids, for example. It's not about programming, it's more about expressing themselves through a game.

I remember being completely mystified the first time I heard "arreglo" at my first job.

I have a theory that the frequency of the use of those translations (arreglo, aplicativo) in a workplace is directly proportional to the amount of bureaucracy in it.

The scrolling banner screams "this is a scam" to me for some reason. And that's not even touching the weirdness of that manifesto.

But, other than that, I hope it exists. Mostly because Notion really needs self-hosted alternatives, especially with "database" items support.

There's a very delicate balance when dealing with "Resist the urge to change things," from both sides. As an old-timer, I sometimes find it annoying when new co-workers try to change stuff because they are not used to our stuff. But, on the other hand, it's incredibly easy to get calcified in our ways if people wait too long after entering to suggest changes since that "fresh" perspective is gone.

I wonder if we'll end up in a future where gaming GPUs will be restricted from running ML algorithms, to prevent private individuals from running advanced deepfakes/DALLE-10 or whatever.

https://purelymail.com/ is a simple alternative I've been using since I saw it posted here. $10 a year or https://purelymail.com/advancedpricing, mostly your choice depending on your usage.

After what happened with uBlock I wouldn't trust anyone to continue a project like this. Much better to shut it down and to allow the community to come up with an alternative.

I've thought about it but I end up discarding the idea because even if I move, if I want to get another job I'd have to move back to increase my chances to get another job, due to the way the job market works here.
