On the other hand if the code from the 5 year old release was open source but the updates from today was still closed source for another 5 years that would encourage continual improvement addition content to differentiate from the community releases.

Technically true.

You are right, having the password in the same vault does mean that if the vault itself is compromised they have both. Guess I could move the TOTP to a separate authenticator app but the only other apps I have a mobile only and there are times I need to login without having hands on my phone.

I guess the time based aspect of the TOTP makes it a little more resistant to having someone monitor my keystrokes or clipboard or whatever and capture a relatively long lived secret like my password. So I guess its a comprise I’m willing to make.

I generate a TOTP with my password manager, it stores all my other login details and keeps it simple.

I love beetlejuice and have introduced it to the next generation.

Thankfully my son is usually uninterested in legacy sequels/revivals of IPs where he has seen the original so will be able watch it if it reviews well or skip it if not.

Unfortunately when he hasn’t seen the older iterations he is often quite keen. We hadn’t watched the earlier Garfield films (why would we?) so he was interested and we watched the new one today. (it was aggressively mediocre)

it’s not settled that releasing as many micro plastics as possible is fine as long as it would happen eventually anyhow

Is anyone making that argument? My thoughts are that we should reduce plastics (both macro amd micro) entering the ecosystem.

As 22% ends up as litter and directly enters the ecosystem, and 49% is put in landfill (which may enter the ecosystem later) is seems using less plastic is the best solution to this problem.

Edit: I forgot the link:

I might be missing the point but does it matter if it breaks down into micro plastics over 3 years or 13?

If single use plastics are destined to become micro plastics does the time scale matter?

Fair call, combined they report $1.2b in expenses so I’m sure a fair bit got soaked up by Disney subsidiaries and partners.

This strategy has its losses too. The Marvels (-$237m), Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (-$143m), and Haunted Mansion (-$117m) all lost them money last year.

The new film would not be a sequel or a remake, but a “continuation,” with presumably new characters trying to escape from the walled complex known as the Glade.

If its based on the Maze Runner world but not actually a story from one of the books they probably pay the author a bit less too.

This feels unnecessary.

lost revenue

You can be sure this is retail only.

Enterprise Windows won’t have this feature and now appears to have added value for corporate customers.

I’m tired of all these “pass the torch” movies,

Its the obvious way to start a legacy sequel trilogy.

Usually the old cast/characters just aren’t capable of new adventures of the same kind the made the franchise popular.

Of course Jurassic World tried to do it differently by just setting a new story in the same world but the invited then old cast for the third film which was gratuitous. A scene where a small group of people sneak past a killer dinosaur loses it edge when its a small crowd. Then add the modern and legacy casts both needing their own arc and you get a film that over stays its welcome.

Ideally where funds are invested would be decided without fear or favor.

Yep, app not found.

edit: but got 22 on Snake, which is nice.

I think this video is a extreme example of the problem.

Its a one hour video bookended with statements that the author doesn’t have time to make a better video.

0:00:15: Now I’ve written a lengthy script but I have no time to actually read it out correctly from memory so I think I’m just going to use it as notes and talk from the top of my head instead.
…
1:07:15: I’m kind of sad that I can’t do this review like better technically cuz i can’t afford to spend you know a month editing this video.

“Epic’s filing to the US Federal Court shows again that it simply wants the benefits of Google Play without having to pay for it,” Google’s spokesperson said. “We’ll continue to challenge the verdict, as Android is an open mobile platform that faces fierce competition from the Apple App Store, as well as app stores on Android devices, PCs, and gaming consoles.”

Is this the mocking? Its not a very good mocking!
