Anyone else remember those giant scale maps that used to be in shooters? e.g. bathroom, kitchen, office, backyard, that made you feel so tiny?
  • There’s a survival game called Grounded that’s basically this but even smaller. And a coop story action/adventure called It Takes Two that does the same.

    iCloud Mail vs Google Mail - what are your opinions?
  • I wrote a whole thing on this, but tldr; I switched from Gmail to iCloud about a year ago. Gmail is better at filters, search, web UI, and spam filtering. iCloud is better at native UI, offline support, and ecosystem integration.

    Overall I’m happy with it but only because I’m willing to pay the costs for the benefits, which I think is pretty rare.

  • It depends on your password manager and sync method. With most if I take all your devices away from you, you can’t go to any public computer and access all your passwords using only what you know. You need to have one of your physical devices.

  • Password managers do have two factors: the vault (have) and the master password (know).

    Assuming I was, or was related to, a stingy restaurant owner (I am not). What would be the most optimal way of skimping people on fries?
  • Thinner the better. It creates more places for air. Same for curly fries. Even a slightly bent normal fry hogs more space than a straight one.

  • I use glasses for reading and driving only, which means I have them with me all the time but usually am not wearing them.

    I hate bringing cases around, so I've got into the habit of getting frames on the thicker side so they can last being shoved in my pocket, sat on, jangled around with my keys, etc.

    I've found pairs that surprisingly survive this behavior 1–2 years, and am curious if any frames can go even longer, possibly indefinitely. Any recommendations?

    Used to go through a belt every 1-2 years, now I don't think I'll ever buy another.
