Dungeondraft is the way to go IMO: buy once, no sub, tons of extra assets available. There's also Wondedraft if you're doing world maps.

I don't think this is a case of trying to make more money.

Sure it is: the only reason for DRM is to make more money.

I understand where you're coming from, but I disagree completely. They are written in a different style than we're used to today, but they're masterfully done. To me, the movies are largely good adaptations, but the books are far superior.

But that's the nice thing about taste: everyone's entitled to their own.

I bet they've got websites with RSS feeds. Pick up an RSS reader and subscribe to their news & announcements page.

If it gets to the Supreme Court, I'm sure they'll go down on them all night long.

FYI the red ones are studding sails, often called stu'nsails because sailors love leaving off letters (like how "boatswain" is often called "bosun"). Also, jibs are staysails; staysails are any sail that slides up and down a stay, which are the pieces of standing rigging that support the masts from the front and the back.

The tl;dr from the article (which is actually worth a read):

The very short version: Unix PIDs do start at 0! PID 0 just isn’t shown to userspace through traditional APIs. PID 0 starts the kernel, then retires to a quiet life of helping a bit with process scheduling and power management. Also the entire web is mostly wrong about PID 0, because of one sentence on Wikipedia from 16 years ago.

Ron Wyden is a treasure:

"The U.S. government should not be funding and legitimizing a shady industry whose flagrant violations of Americans' privacy are not just unethical, but illegal," Wyden wrote.

KeePass doesn't store your stuff in the cloud; it's all local storage. You can sync your encrypted KeePass DB in a number of different ways; personally, I go for SyncThing, but you can use Box or whatever.

The difference is the part immediately after you stopped quoting:

They don't understand how horrible the loss of privacy is...

What OP is saying here is that people know abstractly that smart devices are not privacy friendly, but they don't understand how big a deal that actually can be.
