Empty land? My man, they're literally kicking people out of their homes and moving settlers in, there's videos and reports from multiple sources. It's not the vast empty plains of the wild west after the natives died to disease.

Vox did a great report a while back where they talked to a guy who was moved into a house a family was kicked out and his justifications for moving in and the struggles he faces in the neighborhood. The focus though was the family who got kicked out and their efforts to get it back.

I'd link the video but I don't wanna link YouTube and I'm sure you could find these kind of reports if you wanted to.

Needing an extension to import sounds insane. I've noticed a trend for doing everything in browser and with extensions and I kinda hate it. I guess it makes it easier for cross platform compatibility and all but I don't wanna open a browser extension for everything. And importing passwords sounds like something a website interface should be able to handle, right?? I don't get the need for an extension there

Never used Proton Pass but seeing that it doesn't have a desktop app is a deal breaker for me. I hate having to go to my browser, pull up the extension and search for passwords if I'm just trying to log into another program on my computer.

I do wish Bitwarden was able to recognize when desktop apps are asking for passwords and auto fill logins. Roboform, which I tried previously, could do this but there was a lot of jankiness in other parts of the program.

Also tried Dashlane, which was a great experience in general but unnecessarily expensive when FOSS alternatives exist that can do infinite passwords and multi-device syncing.

Exactly my issue. We had a good push to move when the whole terms of service thing happened but I got way too many work related group chats with non techy people on WhatsApp so I'm just stuck

Seconding this. I switched over to discuss.online recently and was surprised when I suddenly couldn't use Sync. Took a good while before I happened upon the admin post about the issue so now I'm back to Lemmy.world on Sync

Malaysia is fun for this. Just asking for tea (teh) will get you a hot sweet milk tea, if you want no milk you ask for "teh-O". If you want no milk AND no sugar you ask for a " teh-O kosong", kosong basically meaning empty. Then of course there are the ice variants like "teh-O ais kosong". So basically the default is getting everything except ice, then you add modifiers to take things out.

But tea language strangeness aside, Malaysian teh-tarik (pulled tea) is amazing and should get more global attention. Even the preparation can be quite a show and there are local competitions.

Yes, been loving BG3 but my best experiences with games in recent years have all been indie, from Outer Wilds that made me completely rethink what a game experience is meant to be, to Vampire Survivors that tickled all the right parts of my brain into making me spend hours watching pixels flash on screen in the most mind-numbingly addictive way. Indie devs really seem to be carrying forward the soul of gaming that larger gaming companies have lost, the exceptions being so rare that Baldur's Gate 3 is getting lauded for basically meeting what would have been normal expectations for a AA title in the early 2000's

I remember being really taken aback hearing kids were being made fun of for being smart on my first trip to the US for a gifted kids camp. A bunch of the other kids were sharing stories of how hard it was being the smart kid at their schools, getting bullied and teased and I was just like, can't relate

Leatherman to me is synonymous with "multitool with foldout pliers" as I believe they popularized if not invented the form. I think if you're into multitools you know the name, up there with Victorinox and Gerber. It's my preferred form factor for a multitool, I get way more use out of the pliers/wirecutters than pretty much anything on a Swiss army style multitool. Leatherman had an amazing tiny keychain model, the Squirt PS4, that I would recommend for keeping in your pocket but it was recently discontinued, and their other keychain tool, the Micra just isn't as good imho

So, I knew a girl who went to a Japanese international school in my South East Asian home country where the Japanese did some utterly horrendous things during WWII. She told me the school took them to a war museum kinda place on a field trip and basically shouted at them like "LOOK AT WHAT YOUR PEOPLE DID!" until the whole room of grade school kids were crying about how sorry they were. So at least outside of Japan there seems to be some (perhaps over the top) education about the atrocities committed by the Japanese government to Japanese students, but I agree, most of the Japan educated Japanese people I've spoken to are just vaguely aware that they did some bad stuff before they got nuked.

Was gonna say, it's the perfect statement for a Gura fan to make when encountering a shark.
