    I have seen something like this as a safety mechanism. It fires and you are supposed to either check in or verify something that is critical to life. The randomness is to ensure th…

    Yes redundancy is very important. I lost a decade of my life data when a main hd failed, and a tb backup drive failed at the same time.

    Yay pigeon-hole principle combined with birthday attack.

    So many folks don't seem to have remember this. IBM was also the same with the giant mainframes. Even now, if you have a power system, it's pretty much mandatory to pay an ongoing …

    I Gave up on the youtube video. Honestly though, this is still better than some of the "secure password" prompts I've encountered in life.

    Are you totally unaware of the history of Microsoft all the way back to the 80s? Microsoft does not care about anything more than the bottom line. As long as they can increase reve…

    I fully agree. Moratoriums usually accomplish little, and give the organizations who have the technology 6 more months to get ahead of everyone else. The idea that somehow everyone…

    I remember reading many books on how when electricity was invented for decades there were tons of scams which essentially were vaporware hypestorms. Look at Victorian England and t…

    To continue a bit more, I have really tried to figure out if there is any way to deal with email spam that doesn't either ban anyone but incredibly trusted servers (And even then i…

    The only thing I can see that could possibly be done is to either remove commenting altogether, and remove that as a method for determining engagement with the video. Or to make it…

    Someone needs to do this but for a windows environment. The documentation is a disaster in that realm. Took me forever to get it working properly with active directory.

    Was this written by GPT-3 or some other AI. I don't know why, but it has that AI feel to it. Many of the paragraphs feel just... forced and awkward. Definitely doesn't feel like or…

    Set up a straight postfix with relay blocking on a server using maildir. Set up whatever tool you want for pop or imap. That way you get the emails and if you don't care about spac…

    Having had a similar experience over the alps on air italia, this is why I never ever undo my belt unless I have to. The sign went on and 5 seconds later I felt myself physically l…

    I love how people talk about not using electricity with various groups and how they did it for hundreds of thousands of years. Completely missing that their own ancestors did the s…

    I went wandering the alleyways in my small town in Alberta recently during the summer. And I was pleasantly surprised by how many garages had been turned into makeshift bars and pa…

    I remember digging into this somewhat and was surprised how prevalent it was; even in the uk, us and canada. Once you know the current code words for the gender, type of slave, and…

    For music or artist based shows I agree. However this could work really well for sporting events. The Leafs usually sell out all of their tickets and a good number to scalpers, hav…

    How does will call wipe out scalpers? I have never heard that before. I would love to hear the explanation.
