In this FBI, it’s not an inquiry, it’s recruiting.

I’ve learned some Spanish and French, conversational in neither, but I know enough to understand how the languages are constructed and I have a decent enough vocab to feel like I’ve experienced the languages. French is just as dumb as English and worse in some places and Spanish is definitely an easier language to learn and construct sentences in.

I hope my fellow Americans make their lives fucking miserable.

It took me 7 years to get a 2 year degree. I work with one of my best friends who got his masters in that same time. We’re both successful and excell at what we do. It does suck that you have to wait to be done, but one silver lining is you may have a better job market since you won’t be graduating with the vast majority of college students competing for the same spots.

I stepped away from my team a couple years ago, because I get to emotionally attached plus I started to dislike the product that is the NFL more and more. Had I not already stepped aside, I’d have dropped cold turkey right now.

Fuck the NFL, it’s not only dead to me, but I will actively avoid the product going forward.

I’m not quiet quitting, I’m doing exactly the work I am paid to do and no more of the extra stuff I’m not paid to do.

In the past 10 years, you can’t think of even one movie that was good and went to theaters?

Ok.

You’re not pushing back against anti trans people, you’re pushing back against people trying to change and understand. You are doing more harm than good to the trans community, and if you understand that and continue to be that way, then what does that say about you?

Nope. I very specifically said I’m not arguing about that. I’m giving an example of something polarizing that someone may want to have their mind changed on.

Maybe ease up on the hostility. There are people out there that were raised a certain way that want to change or perhaps have questions due to ignorance on the topic. By being combative, you’re doing more harm than good for something you clearly care about.

And that’s definitely an opinion you should be able to post and discuss in a forum like changemyview.

To play devil’s advocate, trans in sports is a hot topic that I believe merits debate. I’m not going to do that, but it’s an example of something that’s not just black and white, and that I assume can’t be discussed at all at reddit given this post by OP.

If my personal laptop is stolen, my drive encryption will protect my data. Without that, physical access is enough to pull info unencrypted. A user password will prevent OS access both locally and remote. If someone happens to get my password or bypasses my login somehow, I don’t want them to be able to open my email and read messages, or open a browser, go to a logged in Amazon page, and be able to order items. I personally don’t keep anything logged in and everything logs out when my browser is closed. It’s inconvenient, but to the tune of an extra minute each day to login to everything.

Really, you just have to decide your risk tolerance. Businesses have a lot at stake and therefore it behooves them to force strict auth policies. If you aren’t concerned about your personal stuff, set a login password if you want, and put your creds in browser, but I’d urge to at least use a password keeper over a browser.

That’s the nature of how AD works. The vast majority of businesses operate in that manner. Maybe not so much assigned other than resets and service accounts, but they are managed centrally. My user password is stored on my companies AD. They didn’t know it, but it is managed there. That doesn’t make it a not safe password, but that’s also why other security is recommended instead of just one password.

I’m gonna have to disagree even though it is an annoying process listed above.

In this case there was a drive encryption password to prevent data theft if the device is stolen, OS login for user level access, a password keeper login at the application level, and MFA on a different app. That is 5 different auths (drive, os, pw keeper, email, MFA) for 5 unassociated objects managed by potentially 5 different entities. The only reason this was an issue was the dead phone for MFA, which is a user error. It super sucks that this is best practice because of bad actors, but this is baseline auth.

I am curious how you would do this differently though if you’ve got ideas. In this case, assuming the OS is Windows and email is Outlook, this could have all been handled with SSO, which would have only required the first two passwords, which is my daily work experience. However, I then get into Bitwarden and log into any not SSO apps I need and have MFA configured for all that support. I work remote a lot and my company is looking at an always VPN connection for everything. That would require me to go through another level or two of auth.

It’s kind of a gray area for me, because I did split a family plan with a friend. I’ll swallow my shame for the next 10 months, but that’s the end of the line.

Some years ago, they changed the algorithm. It used to be hundreds and low thousands votes, then they changed and the vote counts went up thousands. Somehow they weighted votes but I don’t remember any specifics. I’m sure there are still some posts out there with conversations.

I was a carry-out at my local hardware store for a few years in college. I brought carts in from the corrals and helped people load heavy stuff. I’ve seen and been victim to the damage caused when a rogue cart catches the wind and fucks off down the parking lot. People that leave their cart not in a corral or inside disgust me more than more most lazy people.

You’re my hero, dude.

Someone smarter and more ambitious than me needs to make a browser extension that does it. Finding where items are sourced from on the fly might be tough, but it would be cool if it existed.

Well, I prepaid for a year about 2 months ago. I’m gonna use it, but not renew. Fuck em
