Easy. I have servers that are only available on my local network and lots of different devices that I MIGHT want to use to access those servers. I haven't bothered to make sure my key is on EVERY SINGLE DEVICE and some of them, I might not actually even WANT my key on as they're not terribly well secured and they might leave my house (my Windows gaming laptop I haven't used in six months comes to mind).

But for cloud accessible servers... yeah.

Not necessarily.

Cut and pasted from an r/whowouldwin from years ago:

There is only one way for Kirk to win (unless it's Enterprise vs. Executor, but that's a different fight and one where Kirk will stomp), and he cannot do it alone. It goes like this:

Kirk: Darth. . . Vader is it? Tell me more of the power of the Sith? If the Federation is to be. . . subjugated. . . by this Galactic Empire you speak of, I would know more of the glory that being part of it will bring to my people and the. . . legacy of these Sith overlords!

Vader (pauses before striking the killing blow): . . . Yes. It IS fitting that you should know more of the power of the Sith. Many years ago. . .

minutes pass

. . . and that is why the Federation stands no chance against the Empi. . .

*A cheesy, tinny sound effect is heard and a warbley distortion field surrounds Vader for a second.

Vader: WHAT IS THIS TREACH. . . gah!

Vader collapses to the ground. Moments later both are beamed aboard the Enterprise. Two security red shirts take a paralyzed Vader prisoner while Spock and McCoy, looking smug, greet Kirk.

Spock: It is excellent to see you in good health, Captain.

Kirk: I did just as you said. Kept him talking. How were you able to do it?

Spock: As we learned from our sensor readings, the Sith ""force"" power is actually generated by a host of symbiotic microscopic organisms distributed throughout his blood stream. I was able to analyze the unique energy signature of these tiny creatures. But it was Doctor McCoy who speculated that an inverse chronoton bubble would have a disorienting effect on them.

McCoy: Like a phaser on stun, right in their tiny organelles. They won't be making any more trouble for a few hours at least, I reckon.

Scotty (from behind transporter control): Aye Captain, and then it were just a matter of firin' an electromagnetic pulse into his cybernetic suit. Now he's just a crippled man in powerless armor.

Kirk: A fitting punishment for such a. . . diabolical villain. This ""Galactic Empire"" will think twice before the next time they mess with a Federation star ship.

So is Horde Prime from Shera and the Princesses of Power.

I think I'd rather hang out with Romulans, but if I'm seeking some kind of professional service, Vulcans every time.

I don't always force my friends to use Discord alternatives, but when I do I force them to use Signal.

He got his IPO money. He gives zero fucks what happens now.

Any AI solution you find is probably going to be command line / python and is going to require some debugging of your python environment and dependencies to get it working. And that means yes, you will need to separate the audio and video tracks and then recombine them. For that kind of work, I'm only familiar with Linux tools. I've used a tool called Vidcutter that is buggy, but powerful and has a semi intuitive gui.

That said, the results from those AI tools can be a powerful game changer if you can figure them out.

I'm on my phone. Be grateful it as coherent as it is.

I have people who depend on me.

My 14-year-old son has Long Covid with what they're calling reversible small airways disease. He's missed so much school over the last 3 years that we've had to transfer him to online school. He also has like three or four medical appointments a week he has to be driven to.

My wife has severe autism and EDS. She can barely do anything due to body pain and sensory overload.

Oh yeah, and all of their needs run 100% counter to one another and cause horrible conflict. Like "my wife uses cannabis to manage pain and sensory overload, it's one of the few things that can help her function like a normal person for a little while" and "due to his small airways disease, my son's pulmonologist has told us it's very important for him to never be in a house where someone is smoking or vaping." Like "due to the EDS my wife's body can't regulate its own temperature and she starts overheating if the temperature goes above 70° (like vomiting and passing out overheating)" and "due to complications from Post Acute COVID Syndrome, my son's body gets chilled easily, and he starts getting asthma attacks if he breathes cold air." Like "due to her autism, my wife's life needs to be a carefully regimented routine, that as much as possible goes the same way everyday, the same things happen at the same times, things need to be predictable and planned in advance, or she literally breaks down, can't function, has violent meltdowns and panic attacks" and "due to the online school, the medical appointments, combined with just being a teenager, my son's life is barely manageable chaos."

Oh yeah, and if I don't get out of bed, go to work and bring in money, both of these people are fucked!
