I'm actually picking between Seattle and Denver. What about the climate is better between the two?

Pick Seattle if you like rain and Denver if you like skin cream/ moisturizer

Seattle if you never want to deal with icey lanes/roads.

Planning support for KDE instead of installing the gnome keyring for secret management?

Thanks for bringing this up! We have a GitHub issue tracking this, and we'll make sure to re-prioritize this very soon (https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/live-share/issues/205).

Tons of room, comfy, and has zipped expansion section for packing for overnight trips.

Having setup and attempted to administer an IRC server, I'd say that's where the barrier exists for someone wanting to create a new community outside of the huge Freenode network.

Why would you want to go outside freenode? They're run by a charity promoting free communication and have encryption for registered users.

So I want to create a new set of channels on freenode. From the home page (on mobile) I’m presented with the following page

https://freenode.net/groupreg

Which is a) very wordy. B) appears to essentially say “only certain kinds of groups are welcome”. C) doesn’t have a simple way of doing so instead being “reach out and discuss with us and then maybe we’ll let you set up shop here”

I'd like to have a security key and prompt enabled at the same time.

That would make it a 3 factor instead of 2 factor authentication
