    Sharing Passcodes

    My family knows my passcode for my phone and laptop. I got nothing to hide. I live by myself, so it only happens when I visit them.

    Leaked Passwords

    That’s what I do as well. It also has the added benefit of minimizing junk in my email.

    The leak should only be an issue if you use that same email and password for something actually important. The security on a forum is pretty poor, so your password isn’t stopping anything. The reason why you don’t hear about forum hacking often, is that there isn’t much of any gain to it...

    Password managers

    I mean, there’s other ways to have your passwords down and encrypted. That and I don’t see anything wrong with reusing passwords for something like a forum. There’s no PII or financial information at stake here.

    Leaked Passwords

    Idk, it’s one of those situations where there’s several ways they could have acquired it, so it’s not really one single point of failure. Unless your password is just that bad.

    Leaked Passwords

    Hasn’t happened to me yet. My most insecure passwords are for accounts that don’t have much of anything to steal anyway.

    I think using one is lazy.

    That’s just being lazy.

    Anyone a Witcher fan?

    Seeing how the large majority of Witcher fans have only played the third game, does that make them a fan of the franchise, or just that one game?

    Gaming manuals and extras

    Some games still give you goodies. I do miss manuals, but I guess it also became useless for most games. The manuals told you the controls and how to play the game, but now the game does that for you.

    What do you use your iPad for?

    Tbh, most convertibles are trash at being tablets. Part of it is the bulk, and the other is the size. There’s also the awkwardness of clicking on the keyboard while you’re holding it. I had an iPad folio keyboard case, and I couldn’t stand pressing the keys while holding it, so I got rid of it.

    Favorite operating system

    It’s weird seeing people praising Windows 10, it felt like it just came out, and I remember it being wildly hated.

    You should donate some of that to a charity.

    Oh no, it’s definitely you. You bring it up more often than you think you do. This is super blunt, but I can’t tell if you’re bad with your finances, or just use it as a convenient excuse. You’re free to clarify. Like Froggyboy will post a thread on tech stuff, and you comment “I can’t afford...

    Seems like a waste of money considering I see you complaining about your lack of money fairly often.

    It's a personal choice. I'm pretty anal about it at work (for obvious reasons), but I don't do a lot of that stuff at home. I'm just spreading education.

    It’d be less of a hassle to just get a different phone.

    If it’s just the OS, you might be fine by flashing a different version of Android on it, but if it’s built into the SOC, it’s better off in the trash.

    China usually hides it deep in the OS, so unless you can reverse engineer Android, you’re fucked. Their switches and firewalls are pretty bad at this stuff. Also something I found on Google...

    What job do you have no respect for?

    I get more robocalls and spam calls these days than telemarketers
