Yes, I'm looking for a light that I hold in hands. So I don't think these form factor are the best for my use case. I want to aim it at the ground (I need to see holes and cracks in the road), but I also need to aim it at street signs or something I want to see in the woods for example.

It happened a few times that my Thrunite battery was all spent before getting back home. But maybe it won't happen with a 21700 though.

A 21700 is fine for the weight. I won't mind I'm fine going bigger than my Thrunite. The only thing about the SP36 is it uses 3x18650, which is quite hefty. It's hard to hold on with the wrist guards. It's doable, but if I can get a bit smaller light I can also just bring a few extra batteries if needed, it's better imo.

Thanks again for the suggestions though!

Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't know about this community, just subscribed. I might post there too later. I can't find the W51 to do more research unfortunately. But I would prefer a 21700 battery since I would like to match the battery with another flashlight I have in mind for camping purpose.

I migrated from Bitwarden to 1password because I wanted something that works better on Linux. With 1password-cli and PAM integration mainly. Bitwarden worked beautifully under Windows, but once I switched over to Linux, I realised that 1password had more Linux friendly features. I track some discussions over bitwarden that talk about implementing those features, I might come back at some point.

They complain and they offer a bogeyman. That's enough for most people since it comforts them.

This setting doesn't exist for me. I just use another launcher anyway.

I don't have it on mine. I finished high school (college) 20 years ago. There are way more relevant things to put in my resume than that.

I just met one. He doesn't think that Trump is a fascist. He thinks that Trump and Biden are the same. The thinks that we should bring the whole system of oppression down. He doesn't realise that in order to make change happen, we must make allies, that electing someone who wants to bring the democracy (even though it is flawed) is worse for his goals. He even repeats right wing propaganda.

They are few, but sometimes they can appear.

Thx, for podcasts, I paid for pocketcast a long time ago, so I'm fine for now. I'm mainly looking for this use case, but for a standard RSS reader.

Here is a use case: multiple device sync. With a server client infrastructure, read status are synced to the server, so if I change device, I can pick it up where I left off. Same thing as using a cloud service, but self hosted.

I agree you have it bad there. Unfortunately in politics we have to vote for the least bad option. On all the issue listed though, a lot is due to congress, mainly because people decided that republicans and their idea of not governing is preferable to democrats. Personally, I know the options are very bad, but I the sliver of democracy is still worth it to try to preserve in order to have the option to influence the next time around.

It might. I take the risk. At that point, storage cost will be lower, I'll just buy a bunch of 20TB drives and build a truenas NAS. In the meantime, I'm satisfied with unraid as I don't have to spend 2k+ to get 50TB of usable space.
