You can quote someone with a
>at the start of the line.
Subsequent quoted paragraphs will be merged into a single blockquote, even if there is a blank line between them. To prevent this and have each quote in its own separate block, include at least two blank lines between quoted paragraphs, or add something else between them such as text or a horizontal rule.5 votes -

2017 edition (Interactive version)
It's really interesting and pretty useful to know how the 2 US parties are split and which voting blocks have dissappeared and emerged over time and some blocks don't really fit all too well in the 2 parties (most notably the religious left). This also serves as a kind of model for what a multiparty US might look like.

I have recently noticed an uptick in phishing emails and SMSs, getting me to click on some malicious link and this has been troubling me.
I am fairly good about what I click and so far I haven't clicked anything malicious (I think). However, this has motivated me to up my online security.All my computers run Linux and I use an Android phone.
For browsing I use Firefox, with NoScript (and uBlock) and use containers for separating personal/shopping sites, etc.
I also have host file blocking on my computers and phone (using AdAway).I do have a pi-hole setup at home as well.
I also have 2FA setup on all my banking accounts, email accounts etc.
However all my banking account 2FA is still just using SMS. Which I think is now easily circumvented.
Email accounts do use Authenticator apps (like Authy and Google Authenticator).I also use a password manager (this one), which works well for me, but is only available on my computer and not from my phone. I am split between having my password manager available on my phone tho, since it is always on me and could be stolen or have something malicious installed on. What do you guys think? I am wary of services like LastPass, is that valid?
So I wanted to start a thread to discuss what do you guys do to stay safe online?
I am also considering getting a pair of Yubikey (one backup), are there any caveats/pitfalls I need to be aware of with Yubikey?14 votes -

So I've been trying to get started on drawing, mostly about characters I wanted to draw, sometimes a bit of scenery.
Thing is, besides the very basics of exercises, like shapes / line control / hand-eye coordination, I really struggle to find any other resource, like anatomy, movement, and such.
Do you have any book or online resource to recommend?

I'm interested in hearing about games that exist off the main map of gaming: games that I can't buy from any of the common storefronts and games that aren't easily playable through an emulator.
Examples of things I'm interested in hearing about:
- Long-forgotten abandonware
- Homebrew games for consoles
- Romhacks
- Legally dubious fan-games
- Total conversion mods
- ARGs
- Web games (not ones on sites like Kongregate/GameJolt though)
- Independently distributed games (that you can't get through, say, itch.io)
- Games for systems that aren't currently emulatable
- Games that have been removed from distribution
- Games with servers or content that are no longer operational
- Anything else you think fits the question, really
Tell me about the game(s) you know of and what makes them noteworthy.
