    Another vote for Thinkpads. Solid build quality and Linux friendliness (Fedora in my case across 5 or so various Thinkpads over the years).

    Love it. Sprinkling some Thai spice on your slice then dipping in ranch is also amazing imo.

    Hot Mustard at McDonald's does still exist. At least around my area (NC, USA).

    Part of me enjoys that classic aspect with the basic seats, sticky floors, gaudy curtains, etc. Takes me back to my childhood!

    +1 for Bitwarden. I self host via the vaultwarden container and keep it local only. I use a VPN back to my local network should I need to create a new login/pass or sync while away from home. I figure the less exposure, the better - and 99% of the time, whatever cached copy of the vault my phone app or browser extension has is all I need.

    Edit: I also back the container up to multiple servers every night and shoot one offsite. If you're going to self host something like this, backing up the backup is paramount!

    This movie caught me totally off guard back in 2014 or whenever it came out. I watched it on a whim once it was out of theaters and was blown away - what a sleeper! It's on the list of movies that I can watch over again a few times a year without getting tired of it.

    Edit: grammar
