    the password length was part of the issue, but one where I need help with is them saying: "Widely accepted by cryptographers as a more secure solution than AES/Rijndael"

    Like many others, we were also forced to use it at work, hard to pick the worse part of Teams but a big one is how slow it is from the time I click the "reply" link until I can act…

    Thanks, it looks like it is IP lookup, I used another phone (not mine) and they also showed my name there.

    If we apply this to a human, let's say I'm getting old and my eyes aren't as good any more, I don't just keep driving like nothing changed, I need to find a way to see better, beca…
