Now I use KeepassXC. Uses the same database as Keepass but has more features, a better interface (in my opinion). And has plugins available for Firefox, Chrome, Edge etc. Free, open source, cross-platform. Has decent docs. Link: https://keepassxc.org/

Just as an example of their "hyper-local weather" you would get notifications like "rain in 10 minutes". I don't recall ever seeing this level of forecasting in any other weather app I used.

What they advertised was hyper-local weather. It always seemed to be very accurate when I was using the android version. I was sad to see them discontinue their support for android devices. The weather map graphics were awesome too.

Then why not just disable commenting? Seems to me that the real problem is the spread.

Agree. Getting rid of all cars would do that also... to an even greater degree. Doesn't make it a good idea though does it?

This site is so incredibly biased now it's not longer useful. It's been on a downhill slide for a while but this new political slant is disturbingly ugly.

Exactly, kinda like "Commerce Clause". This is how we lose our constitution.

It's not as though Dems are the only ones using absentee ballots.

But we aren't talking about Absentee Ballots. We are talking about Mail-in Voting. Two different things. I don't know why there seems to be so much confusion about that. It's almost like it's willful ignorance.

"When Donald Trump thinks about climate change, the only word he can muster is 'hoax.' When I think about climate change, the word I think of is 'jobs.'"

When I think about climate change, all I can think about is taxes.

How comes that everybody manages to file taxes on time, renew car insurance on time, pay your mobile contract on time etc

Those things you mentioned? Those things don't happen either..

The term "Special" comes to mind. When I was growing up "Exceptional" was the term of the day. It really doesn't matter what term you use, you would still be pigeonholing someone into a category that is different from what we consider normal.

I think Trump has gotten set up by somebody working within his campaign. It's the only thing that really makes sense to me. Nobody would do something like this on purpose except for sabotage.
