Nuance? And a Lemmy.ml user?

You also have already failed the purity test by considering a different narrative.

There is a brand of glue called Loctite that sells popular thread locking glues for this exact purpose and works very well. They make different strength adhesives for different applications, all their thread-locking glues start with code ‘2’. The common ones for general use around the home for use with small screws / nuts & bolts and removal with hand tools is 222 / 242 / 243 (higher number, larger screw/bolt gauge width).

Just adding this info for anyone else looking for a similar solution.

Damn, weren’t gay men just teaching us empathy last week thanks to Obama?

I can’t wait to see what hetero deficiency the media drops in your lap to fix for us next week.

Thank you so much, and I’m sorry?

Maybe there was a translation issue, but there were a dozen or more of us at the dinner and almost all of us found it unpalatable. A couple asked ‘what the last dish we had was’ when the next dish came out and were told it was sea urchin.

He hardly needs to try when he’ll be an irrevocable unmovable stain on the US ledgers of record and national reputation forever.

Vegemite is just brewers yeast post-brew, with added salt. It’s was invented to use up the leftover brewers yeast after brewing beer (well really, Marmite was, and Vegemite was invented as an Australian version of Marmite).

Brits like the taste of beer, Brits made Marmite. Aussies like the taste of beer… Vegemite.

Its ok if yanks don’t like the taste of beer, we get it, we’ve tried your beers.

Sea urchin sushi.

Thoroughly unrecommended.

It was like someone boiled the souls of a thousand fish down into a paste and then let it ferment underground for a year. I was not prepared.

For the record it was part of a set multi course meal in a fancy Japanese restaurant - I didn’t seek it out in particular.

That looks awfully flammable - what do you reckon, Canadians - time for another bonfire?

Peoples credentials are increasingly captured by information stealer malware, including attacks on Keepass. It’s not just services mishandling their data that people should consider as likely vectors.

I do agree about evaluation - it doesn’t matter much with stuff like a forum account that has 2FA, but I certainly wouldn’t put any of my banking or key account 2FA backup codes or credentials in a password manager or central account/password storage service. It weakens your protection if something does go wrong.

That’s just scratching the surface. Peoples credentials are increasingly captured by information stealer malware, including attacks on Keepass. So that ‘almost always’ ain’t right regardless.

The goal of 2FA is to be ‘something you have’ like an authenticator device or auth app on your phone, working as a secondary verifier that you are who you say you are to the ‘something you know’ being your password. So if you store 2FA codes with your password then you just have two sets of ‘something you know’ which is far less secure - and leaves you more vulnerable.

Of course, it doesn’t matter much with stuff like a low value forum account that has 2FA, but I certainly wouldn’t put any of my banking or key account 2FA backup codes or credentials in a password manager or central account/password storage service. It defeats the purpose.

Feels like everyone has forgotten when LastPass was breached, and that was barely three years ago.

Any affected LastPass users storing their 2FA backup codes in with the rest of their login data got a rude awakening.

Anyone who had them separate was at least able to rescue those accounts. But hey do what you like people, I know convenience usually trumps security.

Yep. The title and the intro are both clickbait designed to drag in people incensed by the suggestion that their positive individual actions won’t have impact - which are absolutely the same people that don’t need to be fucking converted into the belief that regulations and enforcing laws already on the books would be good things.

The people that do need to read the article will read the title and intro paragraph (as is often auto-copied into posts on social media pages) and they’ll chuckle to themselves that they know that already and move on with their day.

Tl;dr. This article annoys the converted, and misses the ideal demographic.

Absolutely. 2FA codes (and 2FA ‘single use codes’ / recovery codes) should not be stored in the same system that manages your usernames and passwords - it defeats the purpose of 2FA.

But most people will just breeze past advice and do whatever is most convenient.

It is very wise to store your 2FA codes separately from your general login credentials. If one is breached, the other protects it (hence, two factor). If both are breeched, your account is hosed.

Same deal when setting up 2FA on an account and they provide some ‘one time use’ 2FA codes, they generally say ‘do not store these with your standard password credentials - keep them secure and separate’.

This meme is wrong: none of the guests would ‘pay’. That was the whole scam, Epstein was independently enormously wealthy. It was kompromat that could be later used for political favours, insider information, and power.

Epstein invited the rich and connected to a trip on his plane to New York or the Hamptons or wherever, and during the trip the guests would be plied with drinks and offered ‘massage’ (or more) by young girls, this could be to feel out how open they would be to further invitations / test their boundaries for people whom he was earning the confidence of.

Those whom he thought had exploitable boundaries to gain leverage over would be invited to his private island, ranch, or apartment which were all reportedly wired for sight and sound in any room guests may use. His Manhattan apartment had 40 rooms including massage rooms, and one room set up just for surveillance. The whole enterprise was all a honeypot.

Epstein’s Manhattan apartment was raided by the FBI as part of his trial during Trump’s first term in 2019. The FBI “accidentally” bungled the raid by not including the contents of his safe as part of the raid warrant, and had to return the evidence they found & photographed in Epstein’s safe (piles of CDs and hard drives) while they waited for an expanded warrant to seize them. Very unsurprisingly when they returned to the safe four days later with warrant all of that data was mysteriously “lost” - ie the likely Kompromat for all the rich and connected, gone. The FBI then pressed Epstein’s lawyer and he returned a box of CDs and hard drives (and money, diamonds, jewelry) but the FBI agents said they had no way to confirm that they were the same hard drives and CDs as had been in the safe prior.

So the primary remaining corroborating witness of any accused rape and sexual assault by scores of wealthy and powerful men - now with all the video/photo evidence ‘lost’ by the FBI - was Epstein himself.

He was found dead by suicide less than three weeks later. All under Trump and his hand-picked department of justice head and FBI chief.

I’m pretty sure the only reason any conservative or centrist politicians are voting to pass this (and I include Nancy Pelosi in that list) is because they know Trump will veto it 100%.

So they get to look good and can point to this (failed) legislation anytime anyone complains about their stock trading in the future - “I tried to stop it!” and it comes at a time when Trump’s popularity is already circling the drain, so Republicans don’t think him taking a small hit matters.

Nor can kids up to age 5 if you’re good at deception.

Cats can’t tell the difference between a real object moving on a surface and a beam of light…

Oh yes, true. I do forget. Their catalogue in Australia is quite pricey which doesn’t make them a very good value proposition here.

For example Random Access Memories by Daft Punk is $27.09 for HiRes or $23.49 for CD resolution. I bought that album on physical CD from a brick and mortar store (JB HiFi) for $14.99. It was not on sale, that’s just a fairly standard price for a major release CD at the time - reissues of very popular releases are cheaper than that now.

A more recent example, Igor by Tyler the Creator is $23.99 at physical stores, or on Qobuz is $27.59 for CD res or $31.79 for HiRes.

(All these prices are in AUD).

It does get cheaper with their ‘Sublime’ subscription but not to make it worth it (33%) - unless you were buying heaps of music off them, or already using their streaming.

I don’t care about reposts at all, but stolen jokes on Twitter irk me when their main contribution is to add more exclamation points and question marks.
