gwkoehler··on Is something wrong with Amazon Photos? I lost 240k photos
i have been using icloudpd for years. there is a docker image that makes it simple to install on my synology. because of 2fa, i have to re-authenticate it from the terminal every couple of months, but that takes one minute.

I'm not riled up, just curious.

Do you believe that any one person deserves jail in the united states?

I was trying to spark discussion, because I honestly do not understand this point of view. If you believe criminals shouldn't go to jail, it stands to reason that you're ok with coexisting with some very violent people next door. Someone has to.

So basically, you believe dangerous people should remain in society? Habitual criminals should continue to terrorize innocents such as yourself and your family, and you wouldn't even call the police?
gwkoehler··on 1Password Watchtower Mac App Integration
My method: use mobile Safari, and when I need to log in, put "op" in front of the URL (so it looks like "ophttp://" or "ophttps://"). Press Enter, this launches 1password and points its browser at the URL, ready to autofill.

I agree. Also, a common misconception is that your passwords are uploaded to a server with 1password. They are not! They are local on your machine, and you can optionally sync across your devices via your own dropbox account.

gwkoehler··on The Mac App Store’s future of irrelevance
Here's one thing I imagine: 10.9 by default won't allow apps outside the App Store, and you have to buy the 10.9 Server upgrade to have this privilege. They would bundle XCode with it or something to rebrand it as a "developer-friendly" add-on, and developers will be happy to pay, but all the consumers will be chained to the App Store.
