  • Hawaii:

    Early voting: Cast your ballot at any voter service center in your county from Monday, July 29, through Saturday, Aug. 10.

    Voting at the polls: Hawai‘i votes mostly by mail, but some voter service centers are open on Election Day for walk-in voting and same-day registration.

    Washington:

    In person: You can vote in person starting 18 days before an election and up until 8 p.m. on Election Day. Find your voting center by logging into VoteWA.gov or by contacting your county elections office. If you’re already registered, you don’t need to provide an ID.

    On Election Day: You can register to vote in person at your county’s election office up until 8 p.m. on Election Day.

    Oregon (this one was trickier to find, but actually quite helpful):

    Homeless U.S. Citizens Have a Right to Vote

    Voters must provide a residence address on the voter registration form, but this address may be any definable location in the county that describes their physical location. This could be a shelter, park, motor home, or other identifiable location. The mailing address of a person who is homeless or who resides where mail service is unavailable can be the office of the county clerk. Voters can pick up their ballot at the county elections office.​

    Utah:

    Early in-person voting: Available in all counties for the primary. Check with your county clerk’s office for dates and times.

    Voting at the polls: Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Bring an acceptable ID.

    Colorado:

    Early in-person voting: If you prefer to vote in person, you can visit a voter service and polling center in your county to cast your ballot from Monday, Oct. 21 through Election Day.

    Voting at the polls: Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Bring an acceptable ID, such as a valid Colorado driver’s license or Colorado ID.



  • Honestly I don’t know, but it seems to me like extracting every single frame of a video as a lossless PNG is only really something that’s necessary if you’re trying to archive something or do frame by frame restoration. Either way, it is something that you hopefully aren’t doing every day, so why not just let it run overnight & move on?

    Otherwise ask yourself if you can settle with just extracting a single clip/section, or what’s actually wrong with lossy jpeg with a low -qscale:v (high quality) - start around 5 and work down until you visually can’t see any difference




  • Investments, trust funds, paying off debt and my mortgage. Set up enough in investments that I’ll always have a million or so in post-tax interest income.

    Conservatively, well call this 5% locked up

    Trust funds and investments for my family so they have money coming in.

    Not sure how big your family is, or how much you want to have them coming in, but well call this +5%

    10% spent

    Remodel my house. +0.1%

    Rent a condo in Wrigleyville during the Cubs season. Rent a condo in Mesa during spring training. +0.01%

    Open a bar or two. +0.1%

    Hire a dietician/personal cook. +0.01%

    Buy a handful of cars, the most extravagant would probably be a Catterham. +0.01%

    Travel a bunch. Follow the Cubs for a season and go to every game. +0.01%

    Buy dual citizenship somewhere. +0.01%

    Donate to AOCs campaign. +0.1%

    Club 33 membership. +0.01%

    Finally not stress about going out to dinner. +0.001%

    Now were to a whopping 10.571% “spent” with most of it invested in ways that will pay back entirely in your lifetime. What do you do with the other 4.5B?







  • Just want to add, not only is it a ridiculous number because of sales, there’s also free games that wreck the numbers.

    Glancing at my unplayed library, sure there’s a bunch of leftovers from Humble Bundles I got ages ago for what amounted to a fraction of retail, but there’s also things like BioShock 1&2 Remastered - games that were given out FOR FREE to owners of the original. I’ve PLAYED the originals, but I assume the powers that be would tell you I have $60 worth of unplayed games sitting there since I haven’t opened the remasters.






  • Worst thing? Someone with access to your password can now break into the associated account, and use that access to snoop or potentially permanently lock you out. E2EE data could be lost forever if they change the password and 2FA.

    More likely? Unless you reuse passwords, or the associated site has been recently compromised, pretty low odds of compromise. If you suspect your 2FA has leaked, just get a new secret, easy peasy. Most reputable sites should alert you to a login on a new device, potentially giving you time to react or alerting you of snooping.

    If your secret leaks without context on what site it’s associated with, then unless your name is Taylor Swift, odds of someone associating it to a site, let alone the matching password, are astronomical.
