  • I would really start with the pooping, as in NOW!!! Especially with an upset tummy.

    Brush your teeth in the kitchen sink if you have to.

    Set a timer to feed the fish - maybe have it not make any noise like just vibrate, and don’t stop it until the fish is fed. If the timer is gone then the fish are fed. I can’t handle pets rn though so what do I know… :-P I just really enjoy my patterns rn and want to share that:-D.

    Fuck those glasses (not literally, that would make it way worse).

    It would seem so, yes.

    Evidence: xkcd is never wrong. :-P

    (Although I have always wondered about that aspect yes… perhaps an attack has to switch between trying random letters and random words, which may limit its effectiveness, and still keep the number of words high? What if we swapped out letters like c0rr3ct? - b/c obviously hackers have never heard of 1337 5p33ch before. Yeah I really have not looked this one up, hence default to the joke answer above. irl I use the FOSS KeePass and a large string of random crap… but that is nowhere near as funny to say as correct horse battery staple:-D

    Also, https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/936:_Password_Strength does talk about this - but unless it is in the references, there is not too much depth there, e.g. a dictionary may have a certain number of words, but I doubt that they are all used equally - some werds oft encroaches upon my visage with verily greater frequency of occurrence by comparison to alterity, so while in the sense of spherical chickens sliding on a frictionless surface a dictionary attack “may not be viable”, in practice I highly suspect that a way could be found to find, if not one specific password, then at least somebody’s password within a large bank of them.)



  • The only way I can think of to break out of that is to not play the game at all - e.g. instead of Windows vs. Mac, make FOSS Linux, and instead of Facebook vs. Reddit, make Lemmy, Mbin, and PieFed. On the other hand, people that already own a house have greater abilities to donate their time to such coding efforts, whereas younger people today… not as much.


  • Worse: they actively do not care. “I don’t know how to [insert business type here], but I know how to manage.” Like the former CEO of McDonald’s taking over (one of?) the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. Who needs a PhD, MD, or knowledge of things like biology, medicine, chemistry, physics, etc., when you know how to uh… what was the goal again? Oh yes: “make number go up”.


  • They have no incentive to care about the product they’re offering because they couldn’t care less about it.

    I think it’s kinda even worse: they’ll take a good product and actively make it worse, so it’s not mere indifference to it but active hatred towards the wants of the customers, in contrast to the desires of the Board.

    Like why change a perfectly good logo? If it serves its purpose, then leave it alone?! But no, line must go up, and even if changing the logo makes it go down, then oh well…
