Fall and Fall 2. I don't know why I did this to myself. There's suspension of disbelief and then there's what happens in these movies. But maybe it's just that they're good enough production-wise that you don't judge them as a b-movie, so it's really a compliment.

We had classes where we analyzed parts of the Odyssey, Iliad and other ancient books/plays. I didn't like most of them but at least the Odyssey deserves a full read at some point.

Do you have 2fa turned on? In my experience if it's off Google decides by itself to prompt you for a random second factor like your phone. If the account is not connected to anything else it may decide to not let you log in at all. If 2fa is turned on the behavior is a bit more consistent.

True and the time insensitivity is a real benefit. Thanks for the chat!

Another device still tends to be in the same location. I wouldn't use the own service's sync but an encrypted backup stored on a separate cloud service should be fine.

Realistically what is the alternative for the average person who does not have two separate physical locations for redundancy? Give your backup codes to a friend?

Smaller communities do feel like communities here. Lemmy as a whole is not that big but it still feels pretty public for me. I'm probably more of an introvert than you :p Public conversations like talking with someone on the bus (or like this) scare me a bit but exposure helps.

Still, it's nice you can enjoy these longer convos.

You're underestimating my hiding skills

I always decoded that as you'll be dodging them. Like if you spot them on the street you'll hide somewhere so they don't see you.

Makes sense I guess. I tend to see comment threads as one-off things and don't pay much attention to usernames. Maybe when you comment more you end up interacting with the same people eventually and if you're lucky they'll remember you too.

It's a bit hard to compare this to outside life as I don't tend to have conversations with strangers. But some people do, so it must work well sometimes.

Not sure what's the point to them then. If you're at the mall you're already inconvenienced

A convenience store next to a supermarket isn't very convenient unless the supermarket is huge. Most convenience stores tend to be closer to you and stay open more hours than supermarkets. I'm ok paying more for that. Convenience stores here are run by neighborhood people, supermarkets are run by rich businessmen. Starbucks is not that kind of shop though.
