Oh I know, I was just being a pedantic shit, mostly because linguistically we always say we put clothing on even if we’re on the clothing.

You put your feet on your boots? Weird, I put my boots on my feet. 🤔😂

To each their own. I get the need to have historical chat and all, and I run a Mattermost server for friends for the last few years and I depend on history there too. But on Signal it’s really just what I use with work peeps for after hours non-Teams IT chat in case something breaks and they needs emergency help since we all basically mute notifications for Teams after work.

Correct, it will only have all future messages. Nothing historic. But it should sync literally everything going forward.

I use it on mobile and desktop regularly without sync issues. Has it always had that problem for you? I generally always get messages at the exact same time without fail.

Holy shit, that brought back so many memories.

Ackshully, that’s a jackdaw. Wait, where am I?

That’s great in theory, but you’ll have passwords for logging into OSes too which password managers do not help with and you better have it memorized or you’re going to have a bad time.

Very common for pass phrases, and not dissuaded. Pass phrases are good for people to remember without using poor storage practices (post it notes, txt file, etc) and are strong enough to keep secure against brute force attacks or just guessing based off knowledge of the user.

The better argument is that many keyboards don’t have an Insert key. I usually use Shift+Insert myself because it’s more likely to work on all terminal types, including Windows and Linux, but have ran into times where I just don’t have an insert, like on my laptop and Chromebook. So yeah, I might switch to Ctrl+Shift+V as my go to.

So you’re the one who changed the password from admin/admin to admin/hunter2? That’s all I needed.

Explaining that I’m a systems and infrastructure admin is actually easier for me than explaining my organization to people lol. Because it’s a local government agency that provides services to school districts, and people don’t really know we exist if they aren’t a district staff member themselves (and even then sometimes they don’t know!), and we’re a bit niche in our specific services, I usually just end up saying “school ISP” despite that only being a small part of it. 😂

When I played with AWS way back before it became the behemoth it is, I used it to simply store a few small things, like my Keepass DB. I then deleted it.

So my fun fact: if you ever had an account with AWS and delete it, you can never use that same exact email again. So I went from lastname.firstname@gmail.com to lastnamefirstname@gmail.com and have had that AWS account for way longer than the original.

Anand left 10 years ago to the day of the announcement. Was pretty well timed and I doubt it was coincidental.

Shut down announcement 10 years to the day from Anand Lal Shimpi retiring from AnandTech.

You can definitely put me down for 0 because my parents didn’t love me enough.

To clarify, websites can’t capture keyboard events that were typed into a different website like you’re thinking. Think of going to a web game that let’s you use WASD for controlling your character. It’s able to capture those events on that page because its in focus. When a site goes out of focus (such as switching tabs or switching to another window that’s not the browser), it loses that ability. Overall, it’s very secure.

I was more wondering how you thought capturing the mouse movements would lead to security issues.

Even more frustrating is that different releases and builds recategorize where certain settings are entirely. To the point where search is the only reliable way of knowing for sure you’ll get to the right place. They haven’t changed things too drastically recently but they kept moving shit around in Win10 throughout its lifetime.

It was arson.
