Seriously? This bullshit source is what you use to call this article bullshit? This website's tagline is literally "psychopaths rule our world."

The topics have a section for "science of the spirit" and there's a blog post on the front page that keeps theme with the about page representing this site as a group fighting to be heard over the scientists who are repressing them.

PS. Your link's article isn't even talking about the same thing as the original article. Thought you might want to know before reading it yourself.

"Sponsored by Evil Martians"

They have a theme and the name made me interested.

I use NSSM to run it as a service. It is an extra step, but it's easy and I never have to touch the service again since pulse/syncthing can update itself (restarts automatically) :)

> but the world he seems to be inhabiting (men's fashion! weightlifting!) is not even adjacent to mine.

I doubt the service would be valuable if he were offering advice on subjects you're already comfortable judging for yourself.

Really. They've been demonstrated to be easy to break. You leave your impossible-to-change fingerprints (basically your permanent "password") lying around everywhere you go. I'm quite happy that android manufacturers aren't encouraging users to think that profligate "security" is a feature.

> I imagine myself paying $10 and asking "hey, what do you think of my outfit tonight?" And he would kindly inform me that my chances of scoring (or whatever they call it these days) wearing these sandals, hiking pants (pull these zippers and they become shorts!) and grey kinda stretched-out long-sleeve t-shirt are next to zero. But my Friday night activity was going out with my wife, toddler & 5-year-old to have dinner with a bunch of retired English expats in the middle of nowhere in central France.

I imagine you meant to include at least a modicum of detail to establish the context of your question to get any value out of your $10; or maybe you just wanted [to imagine] the exchange to be frustrating.
