Bitwarden Premium is $10 a year. Less than $1 a month.

Bitwarden also has a free tier.

I wanted a sound bar, and got some affordable ones.

Then I went into budget audiophile.

Got a cheap Sony receiver and 2 bookshelf speakers. Got the whole gig for $175 total. Beats any kind of sound bar.

Did a Sonos test in store and really could hear much difference despite being much cheaper and completely offline.

Now my wife is telling me to go Sonos because it looks better with her aesthetics.

Told her I'm not getting anything that requires an account software to run. Guess we're going to stick with bookshelves for a while

I concur. I offset my gas consumption by using public transportation as often as I can. I reserve car usage for places that take more than 20% to get there via public transportation.

So if I go to a place and it takes 5 hours to get there by car, then 6 hours by public transportation is acceptable.

So the more remote a place is, I tend to drive.

They need to raise gas tax to offset EVs, ergo, higher gas prices!

Anybody using a framework laptop? in c/[email protected]

I'm very very lazy. Id rather have the OEM supply their own model than to get a 3rd party.

Then again I'm one of those heathens who pay for OEM camera batteries rather than wasabi power (which are amazing in their own right)

If you're okay being in the EU, I use Ionos. €1 a month with a IPv4 address and no contract.

On the US side, Oracle has a free tier for 2 arm CPUs. You could load balance between them, but they're still kinda slow.

Either of these you can test for very low costs and see what you enjoy.

I'm using Outline. Is that safe? I've never tested it against a hostile nation though.

Which are your preferred laptops? in c/[email protected]

I often skip first gens hence why I got a 12th gen and then upgraded it to a 7040 series. Super happy with the battery life and performance.

I may have missed it, but as of now, framework doesn't offer the controller board by itself just yet.

Knowing them, it's probably not too far away.
