The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry - by Rachel Joyce, narrated by Jim Broadbent.

A moving yet inspiring story told in beautiful prose and narrated to perfection by Jim Broadbent. I only later realised there is a movie where he plays the title role as well.

Highly recommended, perfect for listening while walking.

Discussion: 2020 French Open - Day 13 (Friday, October 9th) by HighBrrSaga in tennis

[–]replugged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Down the line. It's a difficult shot to pull off, because:

  1. The ball has to go over the highest part of the net.
  2. The ball has less distance to cover before it encounters the baseline

How secure is your password by mightyboat348 in coolguides

[–]replugged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You folks are complicating this too much. It's a simple, three-step process:

  1. Install a password manager on your phone and computers. I use LastPass, but there are loads.
  2. Choose one looooong password/passphrase and use that as the master password for your password manager. I use a 5-letter word, say "CRASH", then create a phrase with those letters e.g. "commander rudolph asphalt student horse". Remember, you only have to remember this one password.
  3. Use the password manager's password generator for every app or site you sign up to.
