Weather Underground allows you to filter down to your zip code. Not accurate down to your exact vicinity, but better than the weather forecast for your entire city.
Depends on what part of Alaska you’re talking about. South Central is all connected by a road system (yes, it’s paved) but there really aren’t many alternative routes, so if there’s a bad car accident or a landslide, you’re effectively cut off.
Another difference is the distance between places. When I travel to the lowered 48 I’m always reminded of that fact as pretty much every few miles is an exit to a new town but they all seem to have the same shitty strip/outlet malls and chain restaurants, like carbon copies of the next town over.
Here there tend to be small communities along the highways but all the communities seem to have a distinct vibe and flavor as other than a few pockets of larger communities there aren’t many chains until you get to the more populated areas.
Plus no billboards obstructing the views as you drive along the highways so it’s very scenic most of the time. Mountains everywhere for most of the road system.
Outside the road system the communities tend to be pretty small and very rural as they’re usually native Alaskan villages or small towns along the panhandle in the South East. They’re close to BC so very similar climate and topography.
Along the coast are many fishing towns that all tend to be similar. Harbor, bars near said harbor, churches, and small homes. With a general store and maybe a library.
Up north is where the climate sucks most of the year, except for about 2 weeks in the summer. Not many people other than Alaskan Natives are brave enough to live up there full time. I’ve worked up there on a 2 week rotation schedule but if I had to be up there full time, I’d go insane.
Except their desktop “app”, which is total shit. It’s just a webview in an electron framework. If I wanted to keep a webview, I’d just keep a tab open in my browser. Or a separate browser window if I wanted to keep it separate.
I’ve hosted my Mail with them for over a year, still have them as my backup. I wouldn’t really recommend them, as they don’t adhere to the standard protocols which infuriates me. As a result, you can only use a proper email client on PC with the back they call bridge, you cannot use a proper client on phones, forget syncing of calendar and contacts.
There is more, especially for the non-mail products.
To what standards protocols do you refer? (I’m honestly asking; I’m not very knowledgeable about email architectures.)
As a result, you can only use a proper email client on PC with the back they call bridge
I thought that is kind of required simply due to the nature of their email service being end-to-end encrypted and with the decryption key being stored locally only.
I meant IMAP, SMTP, POP3. It’s true that they do some encryption shenanigans, but firstly I don’t really see the benefit over just using encrypted SMTP and encrypted IMAP, and secondly we already have PGP for that, IMO it would be better if they made that more accessible.
Some people might not be bothered by this, but it bothers me a lot. Which is why I left. The reduction of usability is not tolerable.
Besides that, they also don’t support CalDAV and CardDAV (syncing of contacts and calendar), which is something that groupware absolutely needs to be viable for me.
You might disagree or not care, if so, good for you, there is definitely much worse than proton.
To call it “shenanigans” IMO doesn’t give it due credit.
As for the PGP thing, I’ve been with ProtonMail since they were in beta way back in 2013-ish and one of their founding goals was to provide encryption that was accessible to even casual users.
And like it or not, PGP is a thing that is quite confusing to most people, assuming they even know what it is.
Besides that, they also don’t support CalDAV and CardDAV (syncing of contacts and calendar), which is something that groupware absolutely needs to be viable for me.
Couldn’t agree more. They really need to extend Bridge to support calendar sync.
If bridge could have the DAVs and we could host it on a non localhost IP, it would be a compromise I could live with. As it is now, you’d have to install it in any VM you have, and of course it also doesn’t run on phones.
I don’t like that this chart makes it seem like all are valid. Science is literally defined by method. Material realism is maybe less strict, but it can’t be science if the scientific method isn’t followed.
As the author of the meme I disagree that such impression is given as to “toddlers destroying their toys” or “French surrealism” and Marxism being equivalent. May I draw your attention to these neatly distinguishable squares that break the chart up to ample separable plots? They are there to separate things rather than showing their equivalence.
These kinds of charts are usually used to compare things that, in this case, wouldn’t be science, but humourously could be considered science if given a chance
But the other guy is right-if you don’t follow the scientific method and don’t try to describe your findings in ways that attempt to better understand the universe, then that’s not science. That’s bias
How do you prove it’s not you in either case? Photoshop doesn’t make a whole video of you fucking a sheep. But AI can and is actively being used that way. With Photoshop it was a matter of getting ahold of the file and inspecting it. Even the best Photoshop jobs have some key tells. Artifacting, layering, all kinds of shading and lighting, how big the file is, etc.
As long as it has the ports, I can look into options for cases. I only need 2x 3.5" drives for now, the other two are just for upgrade options (e.g. buy two bigger drives, copy from existing array to new array, remove old drives, etc).
Travelers, The Expanse (noted by OP), Beef, and Breaking Bad are all solid. Add Mare of Easttown, the Morning Show, and the Newsroom and you’ve got half of my favourite shows of the past 15 years.
Ted Lasso was the big surprise to me here. The characters are lovable, caring, and well-crafted, and the story is simple but compelling. In all, only the most heartless, isolate, human beings would get nothing from this show.
Travelers is such an underrated show! Really good premise, tight well thought out time travel, solid storytelling and some great performances by lesser known actors. I really want to second its recommendations. Honestly it’s not top tier prestige TV but damn it’s good.
Honestly it’s always so weird to hear complaints of bias. The languages you speak, cultures you engage with, class you were born into, and so many other factors will give you a natural bias that you can’t avoid. I am naturally biased to find eating bugs, repulsive but the massive water bugs (lobsters) are classy.
There is no such thing as unbiased and the closest we get is though science.
It’s the best self-hosting software I’ve used. But it lacks mountains of documentation, configuration, file manager, terminal, and no way to create containers WITHOUT exposing them to the web.
Also some of their software becomes badly dated (like Lemmy).
But for the most part it’s super easy deployment for stuff you want exposed.
