Awesome thank you so much for the information I'll shop around to see if I can get a deal on just the exam locally

Not really related to the post but how was the process of getting them off the internet? The cheapest price I can get would run me around 200USD for the whole deal: eye exam, new lenses and the specific frames I want. Hell if I can save money though I'm willing to try online

I usually just export my bookmarks as a HTML file and use that on desktop. On mobile I just make a ods spreadsheet after copying all of my bookmarks manually (select all, share, copy to clipboard etc...)

Honestly yeah not blow up levels of anger more passive aggressive with a hint of sarcasm when I was talking to them instead. It happened when I tried getting help at an at&t store to port out my number from at&t prepaid. Yes I know now its not the same branch or something but damn they were rude and at least could've told me who to call. Iirc they were watching a sports game so they probably just wanted to rush me out. At&t prepaid's reps were nice though just thick accents.

I do something similar but instead of a VM I just have windows installed on a separate hard drive and just boot up from there when I need it (I don't play games though)

That's some solid advice

Its really a preference thing for convenience. You'll still have both your password manager and 2fa on the same device either way. Aegis on another device or user profile is my preferred way if security is a must

Not really a specific product but those horrible soaking sharpening stones especially if you're a beginner at sharpening. It's just too much hassle compared to diamond. That and printer lubricant papers, just make them with printer paper and mineral oil

Might be picky but if they don't return their shopping carts or just leaves it in a parking spot

I use my spare as kind of a media controller sort of speak thanks to kdeconnect and casting locally. In the near future, I want to get into emulation so that might be what the spare phone gets used for instead with the help of one of those cheap steam deck docks for USB C. As for more creative ideas, I heard some people use them as a dedicated GPS, media player or even a dashcam for their cars (not sure how the battery would hold up in the heat and whatnot). You can use it to remote view your pc or even play games from that same pc or even one you don't own through cloud gaming. You can repurpose it to be a 2fa device only, so you can keep your TOTPs and other 2fa methods separated from your main assuming the device is up to date security wise. If the camera and whatnot are decent maybe keep it as a spare camera for all your video/picture needs (online meetings, video recording, document scanner, etc...) a dock might be useful for that. If your spare has that desktop like experience when you connect it via HDMI there's nothing stopping you from using it as a really lightweight computer to do basic web stuff. These are really vague answers since I don't know what phone you have but I hope it helps get the ball rolling

 

Hey so I'm new to the world of gpg/pgp. Using a test gpg key pair I created, the goal was to digitally sign a odf so I was wondering what do I backup so I could keep signing digitally using this key in case shit hits the fan and my computer no longer works? Using seahorse, I perfer it to the terminal, the options are to either export the public key or the secret key and I'm honestly confused should I do both or just the secret key? I did notice people also just take a copy of their .gnupg directory but I feel thats just to backup all of their keys including imported ones rather than a singular one. Any help is appreciated preferably as if you were talking to a 5 year old

The TLDR: Just created a gpg key pair now how do I back it up?
