The only one i can think of is people not saving their old toothbrushes. A small brush comes in real handy for a lot of situations

Thats a great story it’s amazing how sometimes things just resurface and click after years. I'm genuinely happy that I'm not the only one that fiddles around with paracord. I get a lot of looks from family because of it, haha. Think it was either the sheet bend or square knot that got me into this.

Rope or really any cordage. Can't begin to tell you how handy learning 7-10ish knots has come, plus lashings

Same person made me appreciate my can opener

Now that's something interesting. Does it work with piped?

Mull on mobile, mullvad and Firefox on desktop

Kinda don't think you can its one of the beauties of Linux, there's so many different flavors of it. Best thing that would've helped me as a beginner would've been like a collection of all the wiki's and basic knowledge in a single space instead of searching through different sites for a problem or terminal commands, which I bet exists but I just never looked too hard. Also documentation of common problems would've been big for me (especially for older devices) like drivers no longer being supported by kernels and solutions like using the open source version instead.

Hell yeah been using gnome tweaks for this

Yup Veracrypt is great even has a portable version that can be kept on the drive (might still need admin privileges though) so you won't have to install it on the system iirc . Would also go with cryptomator if you plan on using it with mobile systems but it has a one time payment for mobile.

Dang I'm interested too. I opted to just stick on a highly reflective sticker which works for me but interested to see what others have in mind

Oh that's fair still recommend it for its price though and don't even get me started on liquid fueled lighters lmao. Don't get me wrong I'm sure peanut lighters are OK so are zippos in the winter but dang if the area you live at gets any heat whatsoever it just evaporates after a while regardless of gaskets and whatnot (mostly via the wick). Such a frustration when you need it. I switched out my daily zippo for the butane insert for that exact reason and been loving it

Ever thought about switching out the bic for like a clipper or something so you can refill it or is it too big? Like the carry though looks great!
