  • i changed my mind about gun ownership sometime in the last two years

    i used to think that like, sure i get that it would be nice if nobody in the world had a gun, but the cat was out of the bag. and remember when the covid lockdowns started? there were lines around the block at gun stores. it just seemed crazy to me to be the only person without a gun, like what if shit hits the fan?

    i think i changed my mind around uvalde, because like, that event made it pretty clear that guns dont really contribute to the rule of law. all guns did in that scenario was allow cops to kill a child an hour after he murdered 21 other children.

    i really had to kind of re-evaluate the pros and cons. sure guns would be great if, in the 0.05% likelihood event that society turns into mad max, i need to murder my neighbor for tomatoes so i can delay getting scurvy for another week. but in the meantime every single time someone has like a fucked up teenager phase or watches an insane amount of youtube incel shit or whatever, we’re making sure that they have immediate access to a means to kill like 100 people before anybody can do anything about it?

    it just doesnt make sense to me any more to live my life planning for the worst possible societal outcome in a way that has very obvious and real consequences. itd be like if nobody had invented the seatbelt and the way we prevented car crashes was having giant fucking spikes right at eye level surrounding the car to disincentivize other people from driving into you

    everyone complaining about, like, fidelity to the source material, lol? the writing in these games is hot garbage that is only tolerable because it’s stapled to a dopamine generator. the best thing they could possibly do is throw as much of it out as possible while still keeping enough of the IP to chisel a budget out of some feckless executive producer. just call jack black Mr Borderland and let him shoot a rocket out of a bus

    i use keepass to store all my passwords, the database file gets synced across my devices through Dropbox, i open it with a master password, i would like to improve this by also requiring the yubikey

    i am kind of confused too as to what exactly the yubikey does in this scenario. my vague understanding is that it was somehow synchronized such that the yubikey would generate sequential random ‘passwords’ which would be checked against the database file (generating its own sequence in the same manner).

    i think it stopped working due to some desynchronization between the yubikey and the database file.






  • even setting aside the guys personal qualities he’s just a real turd of an actor. in recent memory he’s ruined or attempted to ruin suicide squad, blade runner 2049, and house of gucci. his performance in house of gucci is possibly one of the worst accents ive ever seen an actor commit to, hes literally doing a Mario impression for two hours.

    plus he’s a method actor, which is frankly ridiculous given the quality of his output, so whenever you see him on-screen playing like, a sea captain, you have to suffer with the knowledge that real people in his life probably had to watch him try to order hardtack and salt pork from a benihana’s
