As someone who plays the musical instrument called "trumpet", I ask- no, I beg of you, PLEASE do not use my musical instrument to describe fascists.

I'm trying to move away from Authy since they're ending support for their desktop app, and I thought Aegis would be the right app for me to jump to, but it doesn't seem to have a desktop app. So I'm wondering what FOSS apps the rest of you use for Desktop and Mobile 2FA?

this is the main reason I've been slowly removing sarcasm from my personality. it's not fun when so many people are (understandably) not in on the joke, or worse when you realize someone you were joking with was actually being completely serious. I'm just tired man, feels like half the worlds gone insane

I love pangrams! I even have a list of all my favorite ones:

  • Fix problem quickly with galvanized jets
  • Amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes
  • My girl wove six dozen plaid jackets before she quit
  • who packed five dozen old quart jugs in my box
  • Jim quickly realized the beautiful gowns are expensive
  • The wizard quickly jinxed the gnomes before they vaporized
  • the quick onyx goblin jumps over the lazy dwarf
  • a wizards job is to vex chimps quickly in fog
  • Heavy boxes perform waltzes and jigs
  • A very big box sailed up then whizzed quickly from Japan
  • Jack quietly moved up front and seized the big ball of wax
  • The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
  • A quick movement of the enemy will jeopardize six gunboats
  • Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs
  • Grumpy wizards make a toxic brew for the jovial queen

the character in the last panel is the protagonist in the pilot episode of the web series "The Amazing Digital Circus" in which characters appear in a colorful digital world from which there is no escape. in the show, the characters appear without their memories, being unable to remember their names or how they got their beyond "putting on a headset" (presumably a vr style headset although this comic just uses headphones)

the joke in this comic is the suggestion that the protagonists job before the show was as a rent-a-girlfriend girl (basically an escort).

I'm honestly not sure why this would be considered funny as it seems unrelated to the show beyond using the character.

I am in disbelief, the last time I used reddit this was a solved issue, and now they've gone and unsolved it??

While that may be true, I don't think understanding that companies are evil is enough to convince anyone to care about privacy. I've known corporations are evil for well over a decade but I only started caring about privacy at all a few weeks ago. the issue is that privacy feels so unnatainable to average people that it may as well be a myth. how can you even think about if your internet history is private when you don't even know how to access internet history yourself? even if you do, it's not like these companies gossip to your friends about your mundane secrets anyway, it's just some faceless entity filing it away somewhere to probably be forgotten. that's the perception I had at least, and I know I wasn't the only one. what really changed my mind about privacy was being immersed in a community of people that cared about privacy and took time to show that it can be achievable and even convenient both to understand the forces and technologies at play and to actually live a more privacy focused life.
