I once encrypted my disk with a passphrase that contained a mere ‘j’. I generated it on bitwarden, then pasted it. The problem was the j key wasn’t working on my keyboard and I had no way to enter the passphrase on boot. Luckily the disk was empty since this was a fresh install, so I just reinstalled it with a different passphrase. But this could have been catastrophic since I didn’t have a spare keyboard.
I’m new to the fediverse and still learning how things work here. I apologize if I break the rules or etiquette of communities and instances. Please don’t assume malice or disregard, I’ll try my best to be respectful but there’s like a lot to learn and keep track of.
I like Emacs, GNU, free knowledge (free as in freedom), Lisp/Scheme programming, and software (and hardware, and everything) that is designed for autonomy, licenses aren’t enough. I’m ditching Linux as soon as Hurd becomes viable as a daily driver.

I just don’t invite people to my home until I’m reasonably convinced they sit to pee. Usually if it comes up in a conversation and they say it, I’m not sneaking behind bathroom doors to hear them peeing if that’s what you thought. And if my bathroom is a mess after someone came to my house for the first time, they’re not getting invited again. Never happened though.

Their political violence against us (their opponents) has always been normalized and it never led to what you said.

People who pee standing are banned from my house. I don’t even care if they’re willing to sit, I’m not taking the risk, specially if there will be alcohol involved and they could forget it and make a mess on my bathroom.

3·23 hours agoHey, not trying to agree or disagree with you, I genuinely don’t know who this person is and have absolutely no stakes in this fight. But I think you touched on something interesting and I’d like to offer some food for thought, not as a good thing that should be accepted, just something to take into consideration.
I grew up worshipping Lady Gaga, she was a huge factor for me coming out of the closet. Like she was a crucial part of my history because she did the “love the gays” thing around the same time I realized I was gay. Like this may sound stupid and probably is, but I genuinely felt deep affection, admiration and gratitude for her.
Then I found out she might be a zionist. The only source I found was Israeli propaganda, but she never denied it or addressed the genocide in any way. By that time I wasn’t even paying attention to her or listening to her songs, she was basically a fond memory to me, and it still devastated me.
It took me months to realize that I didn’t give a single fuck about the majority of the MCU cast (and hollywood, and most of everything that comes from the US) being full of confirmed zionists and zionist propaganda and I was still watching it, because I never cared about those people the way I cared about Lady Gaga.
You may call this hypocrisy and you’re probably right, but what I’m trying to say is people aren’t always rational enough to notice it. I still feel deeply hurt by Lady Gaga’s silence, even as an adult who’s well aware of how pathetic it makes me. My parassocial bond with her was formed when I was a vulnerable teenager going through a lot of bullshit and I didn’t have anything better to get attached to and draw hope from. So even now I still feel a lot more disappointed about her silence than others’ vocal support for genocide, even knowing it makes no sense. Because I never gave a fuck about them, so there’s no parassocial feeling of betrayal or disappointment.
Idk, there’s that saying about not bringing flowers all the time and as much as I hate it, it may be on to something. At this point I’m convinced most popular sayings have at least some tiny truth behind them. Again, not defending any of this, just saying it’s a real factor and shouldn’t be too surprising when you see it.
asshole: yes. Maybe he enjoyed the fact he fixed it himself and didn’t want anyone else to fix it. She decided getting it to look whatever she considered good was more important than whatever he felt was good about it.

yeah but I panicked and it didn’t occur to me you can still plug an external keyboard on a laptop. And to be honest, I don’t think I ever thought of that before. So if there was data, I would have lost it.
