I do this too. I would need them if I lost my phone, so bitwarden/keepass is a good place for them to be.

I think it is less secure though since someone who somehow has the unencrypted vault without your 2FA device could get in with the codes - but if someone cracks my master password I'm screwed in a whole bunch of ways so I'm not sure it matters too much at that point.

Could have brought viashino into D&D. They were introduced in MTG in 1998 so could have been added for 3rd edition. I kinda wish they had pulled more of magic's original species into D&D earlier, there are some cool ones.

I know it's part of the joke here, but not a bad time to mention the pyramids weren't built by enslaved workers at all. It was likely dedicated domestic laborers working 3-4 hr days.

The pipe comic with Garfield was also likely referencing a famous Magritte painting.

The painting is a kind of play on self-reference

Meme-ception for sure

Definitely a huge overlap but mostly just because these are classic and great tropes from English-language literature. I doubt Dune was a major inspiration for WOT.

Aes Sedai - Bene - Moirai/Weird Sisters Moiraine is literally named after the Moirai

Paul/Rand are regular chosen ones with the foreign savior theme of Lawrence/Heart of Darkness added on for good measure

Yeah this caught me off guard too now we're getting dev diaries for EUV. Must be different teams

These data are used for lots of stuff, including guaranteeing rights for protected classes, which in the US includes race.

For example, you could use this info to prove that a redistricting is racist and illegal by showing that it unfairly groups areas of certain ethnicities into one district. Without official census data that includes race, anti-discrimination legislation would be harder to enforce in the courts.

For folks who haven't read it before: Andy Weir's 'The Egg'

This is exactly my primary use for them too. Although I'm gonna start using a ski buff, see if that's even better.

 

This original design has grown since the beginning of the event, mostly through placement by PixeIOrange@lemmy.world and mokpo@lemm.ee

I just think it's been cool to watch a design grow that isn't for a fan-group or external logo or previous r/place movement.
