@foone in related concerns everyone advises that you not repeat passwords, does anyone advise not repeating mothers maiden names? Also does anyone hash and salt password reset questions or are they a much softer target than people's passwords?

@foone as a Metallurgical Engineer it looks fine to me. I.e. as someone with no applicable technical knowledge i have no legitimate frame of reference to complain.

@foone they are nominally 3.5 8nches, just with a +/+ tolerance. I do wonder why they chose 90mm instead of 100 mm or 10cm discs.

@foone 3-axis accelerometer and a selectric ball. Just drop it with the desired letter facedown.

@foone pretty sure it is called that by everyone who doesn't work for Microsoft.

@foone if you were evil you could do it the ai company way, spin up 10 bots to each download the entire catalog every 10 minutes and reprocess the files into very slightly different slurry by including the download timestamp as part of the processing.

@jimp @foone I would agree with this assessment. I would also suggest switching from the chep cube to the Cali Cat model for these basic function tests.

@foone @jimp purely for appearance. It becomes plastic trash that is worth looking at vs boring plastic trash.

@foone @cstross unfortunately we can substitute Microsoft windows for Linux in that statement and it still remains true.

@foone my usual solution for this type of situation is to save something again so I can copy the path that it is trying to save to. Then use normal file tools to move it to somewhere it can be found.

@foone which brain computer interface investor do you trust? Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, or Gabe Newell?

@foone the way you phrased it sounds like it isn't a prop 65 warning, but instead a warning that California knows what is on those discs.

@foone with the way that is labeled I wonder if that is the second design, or the production release of the 22nd version. Having both rev and v2 makes me wonder.

@foone not even that odd of a shape, looks like a pretty typical SFF pc case. I think the joke of calling it PC2 is that Valve will never make another one due to their crippling fear of the number 3.

@foone did they have a nice keyboard in the picture, or just the single button one provided by his mother?
