This actually makes sense though

Yeah it’s from a series of stock photos but it’s been going around the internet for years. I was just wondering if it had a specific name so I could search for it more easily.

Is there a name for this meme template?

What are the icons? Some sort of AI code products?

Artist is Centurii chan

Sure, I agree with you if it’s a password that I expect to have that use case (e.g. streaming service, home wifi network). Most of my passwords don’t though.

As a side note, assuming that they’re equivalent length I would argue that a random password is more secure than a passphrase (of equal length) composed of dictionary words because it’s more resistant to dictionary-based password cracking. That said, the point is moot. As xkcd has shown us, length is the main thing that matters. There’s effectively no difference in practice. I always tell people “the longer the better” in either case and I recommend passphrases for secrets that have to be memorized or typed.

That said, I think an acceptable medium would be to use a passphrase, like you’re suggesting, for a situation where entering it via a controller or remote is a legitimate use case. In fact, my password manager lets me pick and can generate passphrases or passwords. Not sure if that’s a feature in KeePass.

For the rest of the time when I don’t need the use case, I’ll simply generate a long random password using my password manager. It’s a faster workflow integrated into the tool itself and theoretically more secure against some attacks.

Many (most?) password managers, including KeePass, have a feature to generate passwords directly in the tool.

“anonymized” sure. I highly doubt they read every message. I’m sure there is lots of de-anonymizing information in the messages themselves

For example–

Anon1: “hey jeff, wanna play Minecraft?”

Anon2: “sure”

Thus we know Anon2’s name is Jeff. I imagine there’s a lot of this.

Yeah it’s honestly way more likely for someone to change the file type and break the file while renaming it, than it is for malware to get past Defender.

I know art is hard, but conceptually it would be cool to see a skilled artist take a child’s drawing (and perhaps explanation) and turn it into a detailed piece.

Idk if installing a gas range DIY is actually dull. Seems kinda cool to me.

This is my first time reading about this. I’m very curious to hear a lawyer’s thoughts on this.

If you change the bootloader to some other software, how could the company be expected to provide support for something they may have no knowledge of? Suppose I develop some theoretical SnowsuitOS and then complain to Samsung support when it doesnt run on my smartphone? It seems very likely that some conflict in my code could be causing problems, as opposed to an issue with my hardware.

I feel like to require this, you’d have to prove that the software is functionally equivalent to their software, right? (Side note, isn’t this problem undecidable? Program equivalence?)

If you replace a wheel on a tractor you can pretty easily define what it should and should not do. Determining equivalence seems simpler with a physical situation. On the other hand, I’m pretty sure program equivalence is not a solved problem.

My point here is that I don’t think it’s reasonable to legally require a software company to offer support without limits, because they cannot be sure that there is not an issue with the (unsupported) software you are using.

What’s the signal issue? I use signal on my desktop. Can you not create an account without a phone number? I thought they added usernames a while back.

Edit: nevermind, it appears you do still need to provide a phone number to sign up, even with the usernames and desktop clients.

I’ll watch another underwater scifi film. I watch them all.

I’m confused. At a sit down restaurant you can’t just walk into the kitchen and make your meal, yet that is a standard place to tip.

They’re part of Department of Homeland Security. NSA is part of Department of Defense. So they’re actually not, unless you meant this figuratively.

Blatant discrimination

I’ve always thought it was so funny when people say tHe aLgOrItHM like it’s a bad word or something. I know they mean social media & marketing, but it’s funny to think that they’re very concerned about something like bubble sort.

Don’t these people ever want to retire? Enjoy your final years? So weird.

Hard for me to gauge “lesser known” without knowing what you’ve seen, but here are some I have enjoyed:

• Raw (2016)
• I See You (2019)
• The Autopsy (2022) - not feature length
• Hell House, LLC (2015)
• Pontypool (2008)
