e900542 | 5 years ago | on: Thank HN: All of you, this place, gives me hope
I just discovered HN within the past couple of months and it is my go to for well rounded news. I enjoy the "hacker" topics but I also like that a large number of the posts have to do with technology and social issues, an evenly divided number of well stated political views, and a host of IT and science and math related subjects that are way over my head but gives me an opportunity to learn something everyday. Most of all it gives me hope by sharing constructive things that are happening in society and a different perspective than the doom and gloom that gets reported by mainstream news outlets. Thanks all for brightening up my day on a regular basis.

Orwell: Predicted a dystopian surveillance state where every word is monitored, unacceptable speech is deleted, history is rewritten or deleted altogether and individuals can become 'unpersons' for holding views disliked by those in power
Revelations: Predicted that "both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, are to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark"

xbrowsersync is my best find in the past year. Opensource, decentralized public syncing servers or you can build your own. It does not save passwords (that's good or bad depending on your perspective :). It is not available in IOS due to developer fees.
