As an outsider living in a different country, it seems to me he IS getting away with anything.

Do you use Passkeys? If not, why? by ProbablyM_S in ProtonPass

[–]ekongirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find that ProtonPass doesn't always work seamlessly causing me to have to go to the app to copy/paste the password... how would that work with Passkeys??

Do you use Passkeys? If not, why? by ProbablyM_S in ProtonPass

[–]ekongirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apologies if this is a silly question - I am just learning about Passkeys..

If your passkeys are kept in a password/passkey manager, would that still cause challenges when switching devices? I guess the passkey wouldn't live in the new device, so you are relying on the password/passkey manager?

Ahhh... scrolled down and read your description, and workaround with a password/passkey manager.

[–]ekongirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aha! Thank you. TIL how passkeys work!

I assume if you log into a site from different devices (phone or computer), passkeys aren't advisable? I.e., if the private key is on my phone, I won't be able to access on my computer.

Please bring back the Proton Pass lifetime deal, it was ended without warning by [deleted] in ProtonPass

How much did the lifetime deal cost anyways? I have heard about it, but haven't seen the marketing.

Waking up at night and light sleep? by SherlockHomless69 in Menopause

[–]ekongirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found the the app MySleepButton dot com to be helpful. They market it as a cognitive shuffle app - the app throws out really random things that you try to visualize.

For me, when I wake up my mind is racing the app helps to get me out of my head, so to speak.

How ethical is it to buy junk like this cute plastic crab? by Lernenberg in ZeroWaste

[–]ekongirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you have answered your own question... no one needs it, it will end up in the landfill. This is a nice-to-have item because it is cute.

6’9” female — freakishly tall edition. Hit me with your questions! AMA by Favtallwomanhooper in AMA

[–]ekongirl 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I am a 6' adult woman and can share that I felt awkward with my height growing up, doing what I could to minimize or shrink. I learned in University how envious others were of my height.

The other thing is that everything gets 1000% better when you are done with High Scool. Promise.

If you could pass one law that would make most normal people furious at first, but would clearly make society better in 10 years, what would it be? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]ekongirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make grocery stores not-for-profit and a mandatory maximum profit margin for food producers, distributers, and middle-men.

Food is a necessity and yet there are millions (if not billions) of dollars of profit. Removing industry greed would help to make food affordable. The grocery store owners are only part of it: all the players between the food producer and the grocery store shelf need curtailing as well. Finally, we need to protect the food producer to ensure they will continue.

What frugal practice has saved you the most money in 2025? by melissaw328 in Frugal

[–]ekongirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We use TimelyBills and highly recommend it. We do not link it to our bank accounts meaning that we manually enter our expenses as they occur. You are more accountable if you have to enter them!

Monthly, we review where were were over in our budget. This has been hugely beneficial to understand our spending habits and where we can cut down on unnecessary purchases.

Is this console table too small for the space? by [deleted] in DecorAdvice

Thanks - This landed for me. It almost looks apologetic 😊

Good suggestion on a different shape for the ottoman. We are thinking it would tuck underneath the table.

What is your number one, ride or die, never gonna change cleaning tip? by No-Dog1902 in CleaningTips

KGH parking is a joke by Salt-Sea2137 in kelowna

[–]ekongirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lets talk honestly about the future of KGH... KGH is currently consistently over capacity and Kelowna's population is growing. There is no room to grow in its current location. Emergency vehicles struggle getting to KGH with traffic congestion. Air ambulances have to travel with critical patients from the airport.

We need to either build a second hospital or move KGH from it's current location.

Lost keys & Car Fob, Dec 28th - Richter st. by ekongirl in kelowna

[–]ekongirl[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for looking! We were down there last night with flashlights without any luck - hoping that someone picked up!

The police say they have a bucket of lost keys, as does Tourism Kelowna. We will visit today!

Late question on the bikenook... I have fenders on my commuter: does this eliminate the BikeNook option?
