Are you sure you can’t make a high entropy memorable password?

My scheme pulls four words at random from a large corpus

IT worker in system analysis and design in the public service in Canberra, Australia.

There’s no official policy though many of my co workers believe a lunch time drink is not allowed. I have often enjoyed a couple of glasses of wine or a beer at lunch, have never made a secret of it, and have never been told off or warned by anyone above me

KeePass doesn’t rely on any third party, and if you choose to use a third party file storage to hold your password vault, it’s encrypted

My workplace has finally gone to passphrases and 1 year password life, which is nice as it’s a password I often need to type, so I’d rather 20 easy to type and memorise chars than 16 random

10C* charging isn’t all that exceptional

But also charging a Tesla on a road trip takes ~15 minutes each couple of hundred kilometres, that’s often not enough time to get a coffee and use a toilet; it’s never long enough to get a meal.

On a thousand kilometre trip recently for a lunch break my partner would find a place to get lunch and order for themself and me while I waited in the car for it to become charged enough. I would generally get to the lunch place before food was served

Faster isn’t much use until it’s fast like filling a petrol tank

*10 times capacity – Charging rate 10 times faster in kilowatts than the battery capacity in kilowatt-hours

Since pixel phones started using one volume button + power for reboot and the other volume button + power for screenshot, I have so many random, useless screenshots

I monthly go into the gallery and delete all the screenshots to keep on top of them

And not doing shit that tanks the stock price and sales.

Ok, so list the ones I can buy today

Thanks. It’s been decades since my last bit of mainstream Catholic education

If you’re a complex machine whose action could be perfectly predicted (with full knowledge of everything you ever experienced) it’s still reasonable to punish you for breaking rules - the risk of punishment goes into your programming as part of the (deterministic) calculation of what action to take

I reckon we are so incredibly complex, are integrating so much information that from inside it’s hard to see if you’re deciding or selecting by rule your preferred path given what you know

You can call the complexity free will, we’re all so different having had different parents, different childhood experiences, different education, different opportunities so each has their own solution that rises to the top in any situation

But also brain scans have demonstrated that for minor stuff (like raising your hand) action precedes “deciding” to take the action.

I don’t think believing in fate (or a plan) is strongly correlated with atheism

That doesn’t work. People with crap lives often can’t meet the standards of goodness that many forms of Christianity need for you to be qualified for heaven

Depends on the flavour of Christianity

At one end unforgiven sins condemn you to the ancient Greek underworld, slightly modified

At the other end you land in limbo if you haven’t been perfect for a time that fits, thence to heaven for the rest of forever

Beyond that end, their god is infinitely forgiving so everyone goes straight to heaven.

Don’t worry, they don’t read the Bible, and especially don’t read the old testament.

They believe they have god given freedom of action

Indeed

It’ll get teslas loading the sentry camera feeds live to the cloud

How is burning cobalt batteries in the hope of killing an ev company good for the environment?

I don’t think you’ll find many of those.

Loads of people followed Musk when he was making cool cars, cool rockets, insulting people involved in rescue attempts. Very few care now that doing so is seen as declaring yourself on the side of Trump

So you bought your starlink in 2015 after which you reckon we should have known Musk was acting like a Nazi?

10 years.

He was maybe an arsehole 5 years ago. He wasn’t clearly Nazi until the lead up to the recent election

Since they’re expensive, I’d expect most of those to be leased or bought with a loan

I don’t get the “fuck those regular people for buying a car made by a pretty damn good company that happens to be owned by a Nazi”

People bought cars like that on 5 year loans
