Their policy should just be to reset the password immediately and have the user set a new one. This is one hell of a risk.

Aaron is no longer considered as cofounder by reddit. He fought for free speech.
Really fucking blessed memory. He was one of the real ones. I'll never forget what Aaron did.

Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?
I'm just happy to be here. I care less and less about reddit. Using lemmy and mastodon for a while, it's gotten more and more important to me to just build a great, fun, healthy community and less important (emotionally) to bring down the giants. I still care about it politically and theoretically, I just don't feel it as much.

Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)
As an adult, I pay for winrar purely because it helped me so much for free as a kid (especially pirating other software).

People around the world, do you drink tap water without boiling?
Reply in thread
Agree. I almost exclusively drink from tap. Bottled water is a waste of money. Boiled water is for tea.

Is there a word in English to describe someone who wants to preserve a (minority) culture against erosion from a majority culture?
I (a European jew) usually tk about assimilation and struggling against assimilation. I don't know, maybe anti-assimilationist?

Lost of syndicalists see themselves as communists. Including myself. I've been on the board, on the administration team and the negotiatiok team for my syndicalist union. All communism isn't leninism.

TIL Roman hours were not a fixed length of time but always just ¹⁄₁₂th of the daytime, so during the summer an hour could be 1½ modern hours while during the winter it could only be 40 minutes
Same in Jewish law. Still is.

Is there a line from a movie that really resonated with you but when you say it most people don't get the reference?

Picard is a real quote machine. The one closest to my heart is:
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : There's no greater challenge than the study of philosophy.
Wesley Crusher : But William James won't be on my Starfleet exams.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : The important things never will be. Anyone can be trained in the mechanics of piloting a starship.
Wesley Crusher : And Starfleet Academy...
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Takes more. Open your mind to the past - art, history, philosophy. And all this may mean something.

Introduce yourself!
I just wanted to try Lemmy and this instance was recommended to my by my tech friends. I haven't coded since high school (the closest I get is a couple of hours of trying SQL). I work in accounting, live in southern Stockholm, Sweden, union activist in my local syndicalist union, member of my local masorti synagogue. I'm in charge of internet security and other IT related issues on my firm, but that's because we're small and I'm the least bad on the position. I'm still struggling to get people to move over to password managers (yeah some co-workers still reuse passwords). After that, my plan is to push for 2FA where it's possible (though we already have it on our most crucial system).

Lmao source please? For the church/zealots-part. Also I don't think you understood the concept of the dictatorship of the proletariat and the way Marx uses language to get his point across. Maybe you should read more secondary literature?

It absolutely makes sense. For us who want to game but also need a computer to do day to day work and meetings. I'm not buying two computers, so what I buy for work is what I have to game with.

Which race?
I've always wanted to play protoss but I suck at it and play Terran instead. Never learned to play a decent Zerg unfortunately.
