  Why? What’s so special about aviation that it benefits from imperial units?

  Thanks for the clarification. So I can surmise that length is everything then? Given that I use a password manager I’ll just stick to my long gibberish passwords in that case, but it’s good to keep passphrases in mind for use cases where I can’t copy/paste easily.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that safe though? After seeing that XKCD I also thought it would be a good idea but then read that using passphrases is even worse because brute force attacks often use dictionaries as well to test word combinations, so one should use scrambled characters, just long enough to resist brute force.

  Interesting, I am actually not using a reverse proxy, just Tailscale (or does that count as a reverse proxy?), I had previously been using nginx proxy manager but ditched that because it became too much of a hassle (and everyone says it’s not secure enough)

  I meant streaming shows with Jellyfin works fine, so I don’t see why streaming music shouldn’t work at least as well. I don’t like using streaming clients such as Plex or Jellyfin for music, they just feel quite unpolished.

  Depends, I get two problems, one where the song will abruptly stop playing at about the 1 quarter mark (only skipping the song or restarting will fix), and the other being the generally slow and unreliable streaming. The former happens everywhere, even in the webUI in my LAN, and the latter only when out and about (Tailscale into my network).

  Wait is that how image generation works? Denoising a random noise seed?

  This seems like it was thrown together in a few hours by a bunch of people that have no idea about game development except that you can make money off it.

  It’s always kind of funny to see these companies make cryptic announcements about games that tell you nothing except that the game may or may not come out at an unknown date. This only works if you have a huge fan base and ideally an existing franchise, like with elder scrolls or GTA, but when I see this kind of stuff it just makes me go “ok cool” and I keep scrolling. You’ll have to impress me first before I start swooning over fancy animations.

  More like ‘diverse’ or ‘versatile’. Although multifaceted would be the literal translation so I guess it works.

• If someone pleads not guilty in court and is then found guilty of the crime anyway, does perjury get added to the list of crimes as well?
