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.
Running a grader over their many-kilometer unsealed dirt road once a year after the wet season is how a lot of rural places do it.
If it's roads on/within their own property they do have to pay for it (I cannot speak globally, but in Australia). If it's on government land then of course it's govt cost and responsibility.
Trains are great for high density. They don't make sense to small towns or widely-dispersed populations - electric vehicles will always be needed and it's dumb to pretend one size fits all.
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.
Me: oof ow I beer burped and it tingled my nose uncomfortably.

Hi all.
First, thanks for reading. I'm not exactly sure if this is the correct location to raise a concern about a ban/deletion, but I guess it's as good as any.
So:
Original post: a news article about Proton Mail.
My post: Essentially I took the time to read the article and included the quotes of what was written by the CEO that was being discussed in the article - as many in the comments had surprised me by jumping straight to him being a literal Nazi. As not a single other commenter had included the quotes to discuss the source, I thought that would be a valuable contribution. I also gave my opinions which you can see in the comment on the modlog, the formatting is messed up so I included a screenshot of the (recreated) comment. https://lemmy.world/modlog/1347
What I didn't notice was that the article writer had omitted the first part of the Twitter post from the CEO in her quotation of him - so I quoted her, and in doing so missed the context that the CEO had actually started "Great pick by @realDonaldTrump" at the start - which does of course change the context of his Twitter post to praise. This was clarified for me in the angry responses. I would have edited my comment and owned my mistake, however stood by the rest of the comment regarding Proton's official follow-up.
So, is that deletion and ban fair?
Update 10 hours later: contacted a mod directly to see if i can find out more about the ban or perhaps get it remedied.
Update 48 hours later: contacted the entire mod team, and got back feedback from several of them - all helpful. My post has now been undeleted, and my account unbanned from the News community 👍
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.
