On Android, Keepass2Android developer is working on supporting passkeys in the near future (https://github.com/PhilippC/keepass2android/issues/2099) but I'll be honest, I haven't dedicated enough time learning about passkeys to be sure the app will be able to support all implementations of passkeys and avoid vendor locking completely.

It's infuriating how hard Google makes it to manually update apps. We really need to dig down that awful play store. Aurora is just there, at the start. Really hope the community finds a way to keep aurora working

So, the first century in the Current Era would be 99 years? There's no year 0. A century is any quantity of 100, go crazier: 1946 to 2045!!!

We can include a year called 0 in the first century, no problem.

All we have to do to get a year 0 is decide that there was one.

For that matter let’s get rid of the asinine BC system and just use negative years AD.

The thing that gets me is that when they invented the CE notation, they went to the trouble of inventing a “BCE” notation for BC. Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory!

Also while we are fixing broken modular arithmetic, let’s add a proper modulo division operator to all the languages that got % wrong :)

What you want is called "astronomical year numbering" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_year_numbering), so you have 1 BC = 0, 2 BC = -1, and so on. Astronomers are about the only people who would need to do math on negative years.

But it’s not one, it’s 0

How long did hundred years war last? Let's redefine hundred to that.

Sustainable transportation is not about which fuel is greener. It's about replacing private with public transportation options as much as possible e.g. planning urban areas prioritizing public transit systems and discouraging private transportation

Yes as is slowly happening in many urban areas throughout the world. Unfortunately, unlike Europe, the US has spent the last 100 years remaking the American urban fabric for the car. It'll take time and lots of capital to change cultural attitudes in the US to make car driving more acceptable. People continue driving in slowly increasing amounts even in well-planned countries like the Netherlands. In the meantime, pushing existing car uses into lower-emitting forms is key. This isn't an either/or.

That would be nice, but in the US the people leading public transit don't care about good transit. I know they have limited budgets, but they do too many bad and over prices projects to assume anything else.

Look at their fatality rate compared to other European countries. Also read the recent news about change of approach of Sweden and The Netherlands. Read about the current situation of the UK and go back in time an look at their initial response vs e.g. Germany. Compare the two. Lockdowns are saving lifes.
