  • No, how about you just fucking talk to your kid? “Ew, no I could never talk to my kid about sex! How could I set boundaries in my home with the child I’m raising when I really really don’t wanna talk about the horizontal dance!”

    If you can’t be an adult and be involved in your children’s online activities and day to day life, then maybe you shouldn’t have done the things those actors are doing on the porn site? “Oh but it’s your right to have sex and reproduce!” If that’s the case then it is your responsibility to raise that child in an environment that you believe is morally and ethically correct.

    You don’t want porn in your house? Learn how to use parental controls on your home network. You don’t want your kid talking to strangers on the internet? Then you ought to make sure you know who they are talking to or stop them from talking at all.

    This isn’t black and white and you are being disingenuous suggesting that is the case.

    Some of us like porn and also privacy. This woman hates both. This woman wants her freedoms to supercede other’s freedoms.


  • That’s not even the case though. Using a memorized passphrase that can be broken down into individual words is susceptible to dictionary attacks provided you know what the length of the password is. You can algorithmically sort away swathes of the dictionary based on how many likely word combinations exist before searching unusual word combinations. The thing is, passwords suck. It doesn’t matter how long the password is, if someone wants in, they’ll crack the password or steal it via some other means. Instead of relying on a strong password, you need to be relying on additional proof factors for sign in. Proper MFA with actual secure implementation is far more secure than any password scheme. And additionally, hardware key authentication is even more secure. If you are signing into an account and storing important data there, you do not want to rely on passwords to keep that data secure.

    The reason for the character limit on passwords is often to prevent malicious attacks via data dumping in the password dialogue box. Longer numbers take more CPU cycles to properly salt and encrypt. Malicious actors may dump as many characters in a password system as they wish if they wanted to take down a service or at least hurt performance.

    Additionally, even if you just used lowercase letters, an 18 character password would take 12 RTX 5090s approximately 284 thousand years to crack according to the recent Hive Systems report.

    24 characters is more than enough to be secure as far as passwords alone go. Just know that, nobody is out here brute forcing passwords at any length these days, there are infinite more clever ways of hacking accounts than that.







  • You’re the only one thinking the joke is about Asians. Which makes you the racist. That’s what I’m saying. The joke is about family owned restaurants and you could have it be any family of any race. You’re the one focusing so hard on their race. You’re the one with the issue with the race in this picture.

    Read: you have a problem with the fact that there is an again child in this photo and would rather it be a non-Asian.

    Do you see the problem with that?


  • You are assuming it’s a race thing at all. So you think this same photo where the restaurant was a family owned burger joint and the kid at the cash register was white that suddenly wouldn’t be racist? That makes you the racist. You clocked the race of the child and presumed a whole lot of information that was not given to you. How do you know this isn’t a summer job? How do you know the actual age of the kid? He could be 16 with a slower development. There’s so much that you are assuming based solely off of your experience around Asians and Asian restaurants.






  • Funny, it’s been less than 24hrs and I got a ticket in complaining about why PDFs look one way in Ease US PDF editor and totally different in Adobe Reader. You’re just wrong. I didn’t say it was worth the money to pay for Adobe, and I didn’t say it wasn’t a scam. But I do tell the truth when it comes to true parity, there are competitors to PDF editing but there is no free PDF editors that properly do the job 100% of the time.


  • Adobe acrobat is THE PDF editor. PDF is a proprietary format created and developed by Adobe. Any software that can edit PDFs is doing so in a format they do not have any control over. And there just aren’t any proper PDF editors that are feature complete. now if you’re an individual who needs to make a PDF in the privacy of your own home, by all means, use a cheap or free or FOSS application to do so. But if you need that PDF to be readable and useable and seamlessly compatible on other computers for other users for ever? Better pay the Adobe tax because there is a good chance, it won’t look the way you expect it to when someone opens it up in Adobe which their company definitely has.
