I always took the unhinged erratic behavior as the point (Ala Ledgers Joker) but I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on it.

I don’t think so… just thinking of some of the best performances of complex villains lately.

Add the Amanda Plummer as Vadic. Those are some phenomenal performances.

That’ll do pig… that’ll do.

That’s a good way to put it.

I’d personally amend it to this though:

Math is the language we use to write pseudo-code for the rules of the universe. It allows us to reasonably predict and share/write our understanding of the universe.

The best algorithms then match with the actual universe even if the real thing doesn’t use the math (looking at you -1, infinite points and black holes)

Possibly to deal with the ozone things like this can produce.

Or Catlander with cats that have the Blue Steel look to them or dressed like models from the movie.

“Cat calendars… so hot right now”

Marketing Consultant: No, King Condiment, you can’t put red in red on an ad. They won’t see it. They’ll wonder why you’re selling a gun to shoot at food.

The King: But it’s great advertising!

Marketing Consultant: No, that’s not a great marketing ad.

The King: But they can still use red for ketchup right?

Marketing Consultant: Of course. And your instructions can tell them which is for which.

The King: It’s so confusing!

Marketing Consultant: It is. And if you had hired us before manufacturing millions of these we could have told you about using another base color with red and yellow grips and triggers. But you didn’t and so here we are.

What’s crazy is that I loved the steam world titles (quest and build were ok).

But I didn’t even know Heist 2 came out. I’ve already wishlisted it for later.

There was something in the manual if I remember correctly. Which you wouldn’t necessarily have if you rented the game.

Edit: just checked and I was wrong. Nothing in the manual. I must have been thinking of another game.

Geordi’s Tip: Use a separate Holodeck for … personal things… to avoid embarrassing situations.

Or the router, in another state, and the person with access to the closet/server room knows how to push a few buttons at best.

That happens once… and you get misconfigophobia for life.

The hassle and delay is part of how it works. If there was a seamless catch all then it wouldn’t be feasible to make it secure.

Having a second physical factor, as much as it can be a hassle, is much better than any single factor.

Your password can be breached, brute forced, bypassed if there’s an issue somewhere.

Your biometrics can’t be changed so anything that breaks them (such as the breach of finger prints in databases, etc) makes them moot.

A single physical token can be stolen and/or potentially cloned by some attack in physical proximity (or breach of an upstream certificate authority)

But doing multiple of those at the same time. That’s inordinately much harder to do.

I will say the point/gist of the article is a good one. The variety of types some used here and others used there does make it a hassle to try to wrangle all the various accounts/logins. Especially in their corporate and managed deployment which isn’t saving passwords and has a explicit expiration of credential cache (all good things)

Odon’t you start spouting conspiracies. The Dominion would not approve… if it still existed, of course.

Cloud hosting business insists its staff need to be onprem.

Just that it wasn’t her last episode

Section 31’s ability to insist that they didn’t “plant” a commander into the Romulan empire even decades later is rather impressive.

Even when there’s documented evidence proving otherwise.

I went to buy it… already in my library.

You sir, what’s your name?

“Hammer… Jackson Hammer.”

[Scribbles]
Ham…mer… that’s with two M’s?

“Yes… why?”

Mr. Hammer, here’s your citation for destroying the bench. You can call this number here to inquire about court dates and fines.
