Feel free to present me an alternative reason for limiting the password length to a maximum of 16 characters.

Re: Pass the salt...

Hello JV.

SHA-1 is for all intents and purposes a broken algorithm and should be phased out of use. It's better to use password stretching algorithms like bcrypt with appropriate settings for user authentication instead.

Re: Nvidia still sucks...

Not really, if you're using the proprietary drivers.

Nvidia Devs are also working closely with Linux developers on projects such as dxvk for example.

Re: Apple fix it or people will move

@NogginTheNog you'd think that, but when I dual boot into Windows 8.1 Pro with my i7-8700k I get the message that my CPU is too new for my Windows version and that I either need to use an older CPU or buy Windows 10.

An error message that minimises all other windows btw., on an OS that I only installed because I wanted to play games that don't yet work in wine.

@IsJustabloke uhh, this is the internet. Nobody ever lies on the internet.

Re: Can't we finally admit...

There's certainly more that can be done in educating users, but technical security and security training of users are separate issues, at least to me...

Re: No contest

You guys have clearly never watched Lexx which is superior to all other things you posted.

Re: What about Oxygen?

All of those are good replies... I was just a bit concerned, because rockets do use a ridiculous amount of fuel... I kinda remembered, that the Falcon 9 FT first stage has a LOX capacity of 287400kg.... But then again, the first stage has to punch through a whole lot more atmosphere than the actual lander thingy, so the number I had in my head was just way too large.

Re: Happened to me.

Huh... Yeah, I was prompted to re-authenticate as well... But I'm still logged into my Google account.

Any actual reason to worry?

Fine... I'll use more Rust in the future...

Wow. You most definitely won the internet twice over with that. Thank you for the hearty laugh!

Re: Be Wary

Do you know the Underhanded C contest?

You don't have to write a malicous app to be obviously malicious. You can just disguise an attack vector as a bug and if discovered: "Ooops!! Who could've known this would lead to remote code execution! Totally fixed" And then introduce a similar vector a few patches later.

Why AC? This was brilliant!

Reserach... My typing skills are at an all time high today.

Re: [contd.]

There's only one thing you can do: Drown yourself in music and chocolate. Fuck the world.

Live your life as a misanthrope in nihilistic hedonism.

At least that's what I'd do, if I had the money to afford it.

Re: Size doesn't matter

int main(int argc, char** argv){ return 0; }

Does the exact same thing and it's also 0.001 in time.
