Does your threat model involve The Mossad? There's no way on earth that you are genuinely remembering multiple 512 byte random passwords, let alone actually taking the time to type them in.

Having a password manager, with MFA, a strong master password, and rule based device verification is ultimately more secure as you can have every password be randomized.

Best practices are best practices for a reason. I recommend you follow them.

Genuinely terrible advice. Every popularly available password manager service hashes all your passwords, if they have a data breach they have extremely strict reporting compliance and the majority of services will re-hash all your passwords. If youre so extremely concerned about that, host your own.

But what concerns me the most is

Unless they specify they only store the hash I refuse to sacrifice one of my strong passwords.

... What to you mean sacrifice?

As much as I hate to admit it, voting for anything other than the liberals right now will be a win for the cons. Popular support for the NDP hasn't shifted from 20% support since 2021, meanwhile the cons are up to ~41% and the libs are down to ~27%.

If I'm ever doubtful that someone has unplugged something, I'll ask them to describe something that may or may not be on the plug.

• Color
• metal type
• "can you please read me the serial number stamped on the prongs of the power cable"
• "what color is the plastic inside the plug" Etc.etc.

Have not had it fail yet

What exactly do you mean by this?

It may, but it would still require the driver for the device to be allowed to install on windows.

First example that comes to mind is a bit older but the unauthorized replicas of the Xbox 360 wireless adapters can no longer be used with Windows 10+ without the following steps

1. unpacking the driver
2. modifying the signature and device version it reports
3. disabling driver signing
4. Installing the newly modified driver
5. Re-enabling driver signing

I had to really try my best not to

They've already nuked driver support for certain "unauthorized" 3rd party Xbox accessories out of windows 10 and higher, so this isn't necessarily a solution for the average user either

Would you rather I call it by some fluffy, feel-good term like special operation? Elimination of the enemy? Opening a retaliatory assault on the Gaza strip while running a propaganda campaign aligning Hamas with groups like Isis or the Nazis, and portraying the Palestinian people as wholly supporting Hamas does nothing but provide justification for civilian casualties.

You are correct that a country may not normally provide advance warning of assault, however an unreasonable warning is as good as no warning and again, only serves to justify the deaths of any innocents that weren't able to evacuate in time.

Israel has one of the best special forces units on earth, total control of what comes in and out of the strip, and the funding of the world's second largest military, and you seriously believe they need to commit to clicking the delete button on the Gaza strip to remove a militant group from an area smaller than new york?

Narrowing to 3 is always difficult but these tend to shuffle around in the top spot

• The Outer Wilds
• Disco Elysium
• Legend of Zelda, Majora's mask

It's possible for more than one thing to be true at the same time.

It's true that Hamas is a terrorist organization, yes.

However it's also true that the Israeli government is undertaking actions which are fitting for a genocidal, fascist government. Do you seriously thing that their 24 hour evacuation notice sent to an excess of 1 million people who had/have no power, water, heat, or communications is reasonable?

Oh ffs you made me check

What movie sorry? This feels oddly condescending

But consider: we could make it less shit to be an adult (on average)

Do you have any supporting evidence for this?

I don't think I ever said or implied that there was only two sides to this conflict or anything else in life and if that can be inferred from my comment then I need to edit it for clarity.

But to be clear, you did take a side. It just happens to be against whatever smugness you're interpreting from those who are only for the civilians in this conflict.

I strongly believe that in this case, being on the side of the civilians in all cases is not enlightened centrism...it's just the correct side... Do you think the civilians of one side deserve retribution?

Siding with the Israeli government is to support Netanyahu and his fascistic genocide of the Palestinian people

Siding with Hamas (Hamas =/= Palestine) is to support violent extremists.

The civilians of Palestine are not responsible for the actions of Hamas, the taking of hostages is not an excuse for warcrimes.
