Until you remember that dictionary attacks exist and it’s not that complex.
Using passwordmosnster that password is 76 years “to crack” as it is all lower case, English words.
Removing the e from staple increases the time to 98 centuries.
- Comment on Why do all night show hosts sit and have their desk to the left of the interviewee? 3 weeks ago:
That’s an American thing right?
Have a look at Graham Norton, Parkinsons, The Last Leg, or The Jonathan Ross Show. People all over the studio.
- Comment on Why does Finland have a lower recidivism rate than the US? 3 weeks ago:
One can argue they already purchased the judges based on what their courts are doing.
- Comment on Why does Finland have a lower recidivism rate than the US? 3 weeks ago:
Why does Finland have a lower rate of people commiting more crime after being released?
Well, you listed it. A system of support to rehabilitate offenders compared to the US system of suing governments for not maintaining prisoner numbers so the prison companies can maintain profits.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t. It’s up to the state to prove and up to a jury to convict. Having a single person do both is a bad legal system.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
You don’t have to. If they have an issue with it they can fork it build the tool how they like it.
- Comment on 'Something really shifted': Inside the software company that laid off 40pc of its staff 3 weeks ago:
If people can’t explain what they want their software to do to another person, how do they expect a regurgitation machine prone to hallucinations and trained on Stack Overflow questions to get it right?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
All cars are hackable. In fact there is a yearly Pwn2Own competition to hack them and make them more secure (hopefully)
- Comment on Does importing goods from abroad alone really void sales tax? 3 weeks ago:
Depends on the countries but generally yes you avoid local sales tax but you may have to pay import duties on them.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Depends when someone says no or stop do you follow their wishes?
- Comment on What is likely to happen when/if trump dies? 3 weeks ago:
Many people will party, others will mourn. Some will fake what they are feeling for favours. The same as when any head of state dies.

International Woman’s Tennis League?
- Comment on In the age of electronics, when is go to vote can I request a paper ballot instead of a machine? 3 weeks ago:
What are you talking about? We still us paper ones.
- Comment on What are your hallmark games? What games have shaped how you view games? 3 weeks ago:
Factorio kinda set the early access bar so high I doubt another Dev team could come close to their early access stability and openness with the FFF.
- Comment on What are your hallmark games? What games have shaped how you view games? 3 weeks ago:
Have you never heard of a hallmark film?
- Comment on Are there any story ripoffs that are actually good? 4 weeks ago:
The Orville is clearly a copy cat of Star Trek and is too tier.
- Comment on Gacha Game Apologizes For Giving Players Malware With Some Free Loot Boxes 4 weeks ago:
While the team also stated that several “security enhancements” have been implemented to stop further attacks in the future, fans don’t seem too convinced. That’s likely because this is actually the second time that Duet Night Abyss has been compromised in the last month, as another malware attack was distributed through the launcher in late February. However, the last attack was far less malicious, seemingly designed more as a warning to the developers, and simply instructed players to play Genshin Impact instead.
Ha.
- Comment on If we cured all forms of cancer with the ease of taking a pill, what would be the next thing medicine would put the biggest focus on? 4 weeks ago:
The great equaliser.

Have you never heard of pushing rope?

Yep.
- Comment on RuneScape's monthly membership now costs as much as a World of Warcraft subscription as Jagex announces its second price hike in less than 2 years 4 weeks ago:
No, you can enable the grand exchange in the single player one.
- Comment on QST: A GPLv2, self-hosted assessment platform (Alternative to proprietary Quiz/Survey/Testing tools) 4 weeks ago:
You claim to be open source but where is your source code? It looks like the sourceforge are compiled files.
- Comment on Are all rich peoples clothes designer? 4 weeks ago:
Depends where you draw the line of rich people.
At some level of rich you will stop buying branded clothes and star getting bespoke/fitted clothing
- Comment on RuneScape's monthly membership now costs as much as a World of Warcraft subscription as Jagex announces its second price hike in less than 2 years 4 weeks ago:
2009Scape allows you to play with 1, 2, or 5 times XP in normal mode, or up to 10x in IronMan mode.
- Comment on RuneScape's monthly membership now costs as much as a World of Warcraft subscription as Jagex announces its second price hike in less than 2 years 4 weeks ago:
Just a gentle reminder that 2009Scape exists and you can play it offline with member benifits.
- Comment on In Pokemon Red and Blue, you're storing your pokemon in Bill's PC, not Bill's highly available georedundant cloud. One brown out and all your critters are gone. 4 weeks ago:
Also, with no password so anyone can access anyone elses mons.
At least in the anime you had your Pokedex as a kind of key card but again, no password. Whats stopping Team Rocket from stealing someones Dex and stealing all their spare mons.
- Comment on Abandoned FOSS projects 4 weeks ago:
I’m guessing most of us are self-hosting as a hobby, and we can afford to risk a loss of support when a project is abandoned, but businesses don’t have that luxury. That’s why they use proprietary software.
Perhaps an org whose income depends on foss should sponsor those products? Just like they pay big tech for shitty services.
- Comment on I think this is the first war we aren't hiding by bad guy vs good guy scenario. So lets say the US and allies get control of the oil..how do that solve dependence on it? 4 weeks ago:
It doesn’t. It’s all about maintaining dependency
- Comment on Booklore is officially dead 4 weeks ago:
There are other problems like reimplemented features after dismissing the PR, threatening to change the licence without contribution approval, and not being able to disassociate criticism of the platform as criticism of him.
The Reddit post about it a few days ago goes into it a lot more.
- Comment on Do people actually need a place to confess things anonymously? 4 weeks ago:
Yes. Sometimes you want to talk about stuff without people knowing your history for better or worse.
