What do you have?

I've seen Fortran actually being used in a couple of projects where I didn't expect it to be, but those projects did use some advanced math — not advanced enough to truly justify it, but those pieces of software were relatively old, so it likely was there historically — maybe no one cared enough to reimplement those parts as you usually get a Fortran compiler with gcc anyway 🤷

In most cases the account can't be taken over as they won't have access to my emails, so why would I care coming up with complex password just to prevent someone from logging in? 🤷
In the end it's the most effective security measure — just don't have any sensitive information associated in your online accounts.
@LemonSky1970 @RandomFactsAboutCats
These accounts have no payment information associated and I never use my real name without good reason, so why bother? Someone might find out what beer I bought last weekend, OMG!!! 😱 Wait… No, I don't really care. I have a very simple password even for EA account — Electronic Arts might mind someone else playing my games, I don't. It can be used to send SPAM, but I've never asked for "social" functions, so it's again EA who might mind that, not me 😂
@LemonSky1970 @RandomFactsAboutCats
I have very complex passwords for the accounts the security of which I care about and the likes of "cat_name123" for others, often just "password" — where it can be used, not directly in the form, they often have JS checks, but by doctoring the HTTP request to change the password 😏
I'm not using a password manager and I don't care about the security of these accounts.

Absolutely BEST-CASE scenario 😂🤣😂
Created this after reading conversation in comments below some tech article somewhere. Someone mentioned "surfing the #internet sewer" and I really liked that phrase.

Not quite "literally me", but damn close 😅

My instance is running on a Mac Mini from 20 years ago — even I can't always tell for sure whether it works or not.
Does this mean that I don't really live? 🤔
Maybe I'm just an olde soul stuck somewhere in-between worlds… 🤪

Maybe he didn't actually leave then — he went to the supermarket to get some fish, but got sidetracked 😂

Видимо, даже нейронная сеть пришла к такому выводу на основе настоящих новостей о нём.

Probably the most cynical but also widespread manipulation is when #Hamas supporters post photos from #Syria presenting them as photos from #Gaza and #Palestine. Which is quite popular trick, because Assad’s merciless war on Syrian civilians produced thousands of dramatic photos of ruined towns and people bombed, executed or poisoned with chemical weapons. If you search for “killed Arab civilians” to feed your daily posting schedule, you will mostly find photos from Syria. Most absurdly, people like Jackson Hinkle support Assad and Russia and condemn killing of Arabs in Palestine at the same time…
None
Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
