As it should be… Navigators could determine latitudes pretty accurately by using astronomy. It was the longitude that was a big problem (maybe that’s part of the reason Japan is placed in the middle of the Pacific).
Some natural cushioning is needed to appreciate the comfort of the floor, I imagine. I’m too boney for that.
I’m pretty sure I’m in my fourth pair now.
It’s not me who didn’t use a tool, it was the other guy.

I just had to coordinate an online meeting with some guy at a company, I had no idea where he’s based but he suggested time slots in EST (I’m in Toronto). I asked him twice if he’s sure, thinking he may be based outside of North America and doesn’t know that Toronto currently follows EDT which is GMT-4h, and he just responded “Eastern Standard Time”.
And of course he actually meant EDT. Turns out he is based in North America, just dumb.

Also note that if it’s just for personal use, you don’t have to have a domain for HTTPS. You can self sign, or create your own certificate authority, you just need to clients to trust it. But domains can be cheap or even free, so it’s better to get one so you don’t have to specially configure your devices.
I had the tune to Men of Harlech stuck in my head for almost 20 years, then I randomly watched a video about Wales that used it, and I was able to make the connection from there.
Someone once told me their grandparents in Brazil were part of a community where Latin was spoken as the primary language, but I can’t find any information about it online in English.
I also always start with “crane” 😁
Could it be High Park in Toronto? I was just there yesterday and saw a Great Egret much like this one (also a Green Heron and a couple of beavers).
