This is so confusing. Are you saying "classic nerd" is negative then? Your wording is kind of ambiguous. I don't think "nerd" has been watered down, just isn't very negative in the mainstream. I'd say it just means you're very enthusiastic about a certain topic. I don't think folks would call someone who just plays one video game a nerd, unless it's only one video game and they are super into it, like a "WoW nerd" maybe.

I don't think there's any need to gatekeep "nerd" though and require any additional qualifiers on it like "classic". Just seems like you're trying to say "actual" without sounding elitist about it.

Proton has a similar feature (not sure if it's part of free or premium as I subscribed for proton ultimate so it just came with Proton Pass). It's honestly crazy how nice having TOTP right in the extension for the account's entry in the manager.

Also, I realize this is like the third time I've made a comment about Proton, so I'm probably gonna stop before folks think I'm like a shill or something.

They are working on password sharing, but it's not here yet (I remember reading it in an email not too long ago that mentioned all the things on the horizon in the coming year if I recall, so it might not be super soon, but "soon"). So it might be a fit for you in the future, but for now I'd suggest sticking with Bitwarden (or some other app that meets your requirements).

I've used both Enpass and Proton. Enpass is a bit more feature-ful, mainly because Proton Pass is new. I switched away from Enpass as I didn't like that they basically had me pay for it three times, even though the first one was a lifetime license. But I needed my passwords. Finally decided to put in the effort to move away from them as their constant begging to subscribe was annoying. So switched to Proton since I already subscribe to the plan that includes Pass.

Proton is working on expanding features and have added a few in the short while I've had it. I'd suggest Bitwarden over Enpass personally, particularly if you want features Proton Pass doesn't offer yet (like no desktop or web app yet, but they are working on both, so until then, I need to use a browser extension)

No, quality is independent of location of production. Proof of the pudding is in the eating as they say. Reputation is tied to the producer. Quality is tied to an individual instance of the product. Thats why certain things have QA tags. This technology doesn't represent quality. It only verifies sourcing.

Somewhat of a tangent, but can we stop caring about the location where a product was made and focus solely on quality itself? Like, I bet the counterfeiters make a lot of money by producing quality cheese that taste just as good but are just made somewhere else.

Yeah, your first link shows up as a search on kbin.cafe's instance for me, it doesn't even look like a community link. It's a fully typed out url. Your second link connects me to the magazine community on my own instance.

Let's not be confused here. Specialization is what allows for free time. If everyone has to farm and hunt, that's all you'd do. Specialization is a good thing for humanity and diverse institutions and industries to arise.

I don't see either at symbols or exclamations above. I just see a bunch of search links.

Am I the only one where all the links show up as searches instead of links to the communities themselves?

But I mean, wiremin doesn't actually appear to connect you to strangers. It seems like it just sets up private chat rooms from its description. I don't see anyway that it publicly posts in a fashion that would appear on all WireMin users apps.

Edit: it only seems to connect you to people you explicitly provide. So hence "chat app".

Not in a Nissan at least.
