used to go once a month or so, but then covid lockdowns happened and the barber I liked actually complied with the regulations (which is a good thing), which made it more inconvenient than I though it was worth to get a haircut. At first I figured I'd go back once things started returning to normal, but then that took a while and I never did. So, I haven't gotten an actual haircut in almost six years.

I did start getting the ends cleaned up every six months or so about a year ago though.

First contact's gonna be kinky

Really only a handful of things:

1. navigation while traveling - don't need it much, if at all at home, but I travel often enough for work that losing that capability would be painful.

2. MFA - authenticator apps are the most convenient way to do MFA. SMS/email are terrible options for this and should only be used if there is absolutely no other option.

3. Access to the internet while away from home, both while traveling and while out and about

4. Music playback in the car

5. Communication - most of my friends don't use SMS/voice to talk, instead preferring Discord or Signal

Basically everything else I do on my phone could be done from a more proper computer with minimal inconvenience.

I wish they'd hide more from me, specifically shorts and the "you may be interested in <sports thing/news thing/current event>". It seems like no matter how many times I click not interested they keep coming back up. And I can't hide shorts on AppleTV without going to the website and then they just pop back up every 30 days.

But if your hand is forced, it should always be 2x-10x the actual estimate, depending on the complexity of the task, and never less than 2 hours.

It's just math and turtles all the way down

Throw in British Columbia and Alaska while you're at it. Just take the entire west cost of North America.

And what should be the east coast, since if the international date line didn't do that weird curve at the end of the Aleutians, Alaska would be the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost state.

how about italicization?

Assuming 12oz beers at 5% ABV, that you're a man at the global average weight of 180lbs, and have a healthy liver, if you paced yourself to 1 beer every 1.5 hours over the course of your 16 waking hours per day, your BAC would never exceed 0.02, you'd have 5-10 minutes between beers with a BAC of 0, and you'd drink about 12 beers in a day.

Most people would not be noticeably intoxicated by this and probably wouldn't experience any kind of hangover. They might wind up a bit dehydrated if that's the only thing they drink. It's also definitely not advisable to do that over any extended period of time.

It's not "assumed to be secure." The source code being publicly available means you (or anyone else) can audit that code for vulnerabilities. The publicly available issue tracking and change tracking means you can look through bug reports and see if anyone else has found vulnerabilities and you can, through the change history and the bug report history, see how the devs responded to issues in the past, how they fixed it, and whether or not they take security seriously.

Open source software is not assumed to be more secure, but it's security (or lack thereof) is much easier to verify, you don't have to take the word of the dev as to whether or not it is secure, and (especially for the more popular projects like the ones you listed) you have thousands of people with different backgrounds and varying specialties within programming, with no affiliation with and no reason to trust the project doing independent audits of the code.

Plenty of other dictators were way more effective mass murderers. I'd argue Hitler was middling at best.
