It means she got it from someone else before you 😜
Now that I think about it, there is something perverse in a way knowledge is transmitted the same way as… deviations induced by trauma 🤔

I've used the form thingie and went with its recommendations, it did improve things a bit, but it still didn't make running Pemorla butter-smooth…
Maybe old PowerPC Mac Mini with only a gigabyte of RAM and an HDD just isn't the perfect hardware for it 😜

I really want to get myself one of those robot vacuum cleaners, but every time I realize what amount of work it is to root one and make it usable with something like Valetudo, I'm get like: "A-ah, fuck it!"

Russia ditching its flat income tax feels like streaming services morphing back into traditional cable networks in the sense that it’s a real incentive to return to old illegal habits (tax evasion / copyright piracy).

Yep, and they use fuzzing: if you can keep feeding it with random bullshit and it keeps running for days — it's good!
"Results? What the fuck is that? 🤔"

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 🤷

NEW ACCOUNT WHO THIS?

So our instance shat itself, we had to start over.
Please, boost this message and help me find my old friends that I couldn't retrieve, it would mean a lot to me!

@LemonSky1970 @RandomFactsAboutCats@toot.community
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@toot.community
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@toot.community
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.

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 😅
