One can be used in an airport/aircraft/train and the other can not.

One is fit for travelling and the other is not

But then how can we monitize our gamers if we can't run at the kernel level and do whatever we want?

We're selling games at an overpriced rate and putting tons of gambling and Mtx in our games. But this is unsustainable. We'll go bankrupt at this rate! Just last week we had a meeting with the CEO complaining he couldn't buy his fifth luxury boat because he had spent that years bonus on his 2nd aircraft. He said heads might start to roll at this rate to keep the company float. Where are we supposed to find the money to index 5% on the wages.

Some upper manager somewhere. Probably

We have confiscated all the laptops we could find sir. They had a TERMINAL open. Filthy hackers!

To be honest my steam Deck doesn't go that far beyond 4h either on a single charge when I lower all the settings.

I think the problem there is that there's a lot of workplaces looking for extra people. Losing 1/5th of your workforce, but not financially is how I assume employers look at it.

The fact people are more efficient probably doesn't mean more efficient than working 8 extra hours to them.

I could really do with a 4day workweek. And I don't mean working 40h in 4 days.

The .htaccess file does nothing on nginx though.

I guess they might lose customers, but the ad revenue will offset it. Which could be a win for them. Less cars to produce for the same amount of money. If they survive everybody else will probably just follow suit. Like the car functionality subscriptions.

I'm just sad we reached this point.

Ban targeted advertising. Ban data gathering. You won't even have to deal with the f***ing cookie banners anymore.

Note: I am not a lawyer.

You're legally required to help, not risk your own life while doing so. If somebody is drowning you need to call the emergency services and if there is a rescue buoy close by you can throw that as well and try to pull them to shore that way.

I am not a lawyer, but I think in the majority of cases you should be covered by calling the emergency services.

As a side note: unless you're a lifeguard or have had proper training, jumping in to save somebody drowning is dangerous. A person drowning will try to hold on to anything to stay afloat and will likely try to push you under trying to stay above water.

Looks like a one way relationship tbh :(

I guess you kind of answered your own question.

  • Is keeping things separated important?
  • do you want the additional cost saving.

In my case I was on the paying plan of bitwarden ( 10€/ year ). I kept them separated and will probably keep paying for both. The bitwarden money really is negligible....

That and I'm quite happy with bitwarden. You could always extract your pwd from the password manager and save them somewhere secure in an encrypted file. SHOULD something happen you still have a backup somewhere...

Just make sure to keep your back up safe.

Keep in mind that if 1 password decides to lock you out you still lose all your passwords.

This. I used to have a bunch of the games backed up on a hard drive because copying the files over & patching was faster than redownloading it.
