Not necessarily as "easy" as keybase -- and certainly without all the extra "features," but keyoxide is rather elegant for what it does do.
Worked through the proofs for this account, irc, matrix, and the website.

Thread about the library you're not allowed to use is glorious.
Aldi's key lime pie isn't. It's an alright enough desert, but it isn't key lime pie. It's its own weird thing.

People talk about "releasing" software, stop doing that!
Software raised in captivity cannot survive in the wild! Feral software is also a big threat to digital biodiversity. Do not release software.

It makes more economic sense to rent a house and buy avocado toast than to buy a house and rent avocado toast. Few understand this.
Is Google Classroom legal in a public (government-run) school?
The new house has 2 AC units, one for upstairs and one downstairs. I was worried that they aren't reaching the target temperature. But then I realized, they _are_ keeping the house 22°F (12°C) cooler than the outdoors, and doing that while fighting with 43% humidity. It's just kinda hot (97°F) right now, that's just a thing summer does sometimes.
