Bruh…

This is like… literally most of my comments…

I type how I’d speak… like I actually just imagining the conversation happening irl and just type exactly as I would say it face to face

except the "lol"s and "lmao"s, I don’t say that irl xD

The Front Man managed to get the money from S.Korea to the US…

I think I’ll be fine…

(Okay seriously tho, I’d buy crypto to launder the money and hide it from IRS…)

Glory to Arstotzka!

I don’t trust others’ reviews.

Curious, if reviews are REALLY BAD, do you still ignore it or just be on the err side of things and not go there/buy that thing/use that service?

Tip for passwords in general:

Create a password, but don’t actually use it yet.

Like… make an empty account for Bitwarden (or if you use Keepass, make an empty database) with that password, then keep logging in every 5 minutes or so… for like 3 times… then log in like every 1 hours or so for lile 3 hours… then ever 6 hours…

etc…

make sure you spend like 1 or 2 days doing this routine… of logging in every X time to get it committed to memory…

THEN after you know its memorized, start using the Bitwarden account (or Keepass database).

Also if you are using Bitwarden, pay like one time for the premium (its yearly but you can cancel the renew).

Set up emergency access to anoyher Bitwarden accouny with a secondary email

Then add that secondary Bitwarden account as your Primary’s Emergency Access contact.

Then write the SECONDARY account’s Email address, Email Password, and Bitwarden Password, on a piece of paper.

Set it for like X time then check your email for your primary account every X/2 days (if you set it as 14 days for recovery, check it at least once every 7 days) to make sure nobody got your piece of paper and tring to steal your passwords.

You can store it in a bank safe… or just in a drawer somewhere at home is fine too. Even if a roomate/family member gets it, you get a notification if they try to do emergency access…

This protects you from randomly getting retrograde amnesia…

And this is better than actually writing your PRIMARY account’s log in details down, because it give you a 14 day buffer (or whatever days you set it to) before someone can actually make use of those credentials…

And afiak, you only need premium to add an emergency contact, you don’t need premium for future years to keep it continue working.

Doesn’t armed IRS agents come to your house and shoot you?

That’s the horror story we were all told growing up: “Never be late on your taxes or the taxman will bring the god of death!” -Mom

/joke

If you want to live in a country that banned porn, feel free to move to People’s Republic of China.

(Or I guess Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan is also a good choice)

Curious, do you disable biometrics when you sleep?

I make sure to disabke biometrics (triggering the power menu in iOS or using “Lockdown” in power menu on Android, these disable biometrics) before I go to sleep…

Don’t want someone to try to unlock my phone while I sleep lmao. (I live with family)

I mean I sometimes reboot it so its in BFU mode as well…

Sex is not a big part of relationships in some cultures, particulary those with a tendency of arranged marriages.

They just view each other like a sort of an inseparable lifetime friend more than a sex object

900000 have more than 1 house

Careful there bud, Lemmy is gonna start doxxing them and bringing guillotines

I’m not gonna just willy nilly block people… already too low userbase, I kinda wanna just see the drama

Like even that user asking weird age gap questions is part of the entertainment lol

But if they start being overtly toxic… yea I’m just gonna block and ignore

I mean at that point, you might as well as use a password manager… which then you can more easily back up the database… 🤷‍♂️ I mean are you really gonna take a picture every time you update it? Not very steamlined…

It’s a fun toy to play with… but ffs keep it away from actually being used irl for serious purposes… these are not trustworthy at least not in this stage, LLMs are just public beta testing…

(Also the increse in demand in ram usage and the resulting rise in cost of consumer electronics is cringe af)

Privacy wise… yea don’t plan a revolt or confess your crimes on there, unless you have an offline LLM…

I remember when I was in China, didn’t even have internet.

My parents bought me a children’s book about planets and stuff… I still remember it called 十万个为什么 (Literally: 100 Thousand Whys)

I was so intrigued.

I remember I had not much things to read and I kept reading that over and over again. I remember still having it when I was in 2nd grade in the US… like that’s my last “artifact” of my pre-US life…

I remember just putting it in my bookbag and bringing it to school cuz… idk why… maybe I just felt nostalgic about it and thought it’d be cool to bring a book nobody else in the school would be able to read… sort of like a special ancient text made for me xD

Sadly the binding on that book is garbage and it fell apart and I no longer have that book…

(I don’t remember NASA being mentioned btw)

Later I remember constantly googling space stuff once we had internet access at home…

I think its:

1. Childhood… like space is a big concept… so it feels like this “big thing” and I get obsessed about it… like many kids probably do. You go from being in a tiny apartment at home to suddenly knowing about very big empty space… Mind Blowing…

2. Humanity already been on the moon… meh… not that exciting… especially not after a few decades and interests fade… like omg someone sailed across the ocean… boo boring… already done…

I wanted to archive every movie, tv show, anime, game, like everything…

But that’s gonna cost too many hard drives and brain capacity to do the downloading, organizing, checksums to make sure they don’t get corrupted… etc… its gonna cost too much money and my sanity just to keep up with it…

So yea I kinda gave up on it and hope there is always a copy “out there somewhere” when I need it…

I only backup photos, writings, and that stuff, much smaller files, easier to manage…

OMG MORTY YOU HAVE TO LOOK! I SWEAR, I’D NEVER JOKE ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS!

But honey, do you still want me to bake the cake you asked to do or no?

(the cake is a lie, its filled with polonium…)

Welp I’ll have to do it for them like… right now… I’m eating breakfast rn and mom’s keep nagging me to like hurry up and do the taxes…

I mean too bad, her house her rules… 🤷‍♂️ I dealing with depression and am a dependent so I have no choice but to do whatever they ask

I have r/AsianParentStories syndrone :(

Yeah… I don’t trust notebooks…

My grandma sometimes forgets to turn off the stove… the notebook becoming ashes is an inevitability… (house on fire)

1 Notebook = 0 Notebook
