My company has to send out emails like: "The mandatory training email is not phishing, even though it is flagged [EXTERNAL] by the system."
Me: "That's what a fishing email would say."

Right! "Boys will be boys" is "we turned away for 5 seconds and now they painted themselves with mud, lost 3 shoes, and ate a worm"

'Discouraging the act of male masturbation quickly became a “major reason why doctors, educationists and childcare experts sought to introduce widespread circumcision.”'

This was the 1800s, and then after it was more of "this is just what we do now".

Will Linux’s New run0 Command Run sudo Out of Town?

Also, you can configure sudo to prompt every time if you really want.
I was on a system that was configured that way for "security", so I would just 'sudo bash' which is obviously much safer /s.

There is a big difference between the people who are enthusiatic about tech, and the people who make it.
As a tech person, I do have smart things, but they are Z-Wave so they are completely isolated from the Internet.

Starting to self host
A lot of people recommend Docker, but I will go further and say to specifically use Docker compose.
That way all the configuration is in a file that you can backup/restore. Updating is really easy, and you will never forget one of the random flags you need to set.

Password length requirement

It doesn't matter the input size, it hashes down to the same length. It does increase the CPU time, but not the storage space. If the hashing is done on the client side (pre-transmission), then the server has no extra cost.
For example, the hash of a Linux ISO isn't 10 pages long. If you SHA-256 something, it always results in 256 bits of output.
On the other hand, base 64-ing something does get longer as the input grows.

I am still baffled that Reddit didn't have options like, ads in API calls for 3rd party apps, or paying Reddit users can use 3rd party apps. It feels like Google blocking me for using Firefox even though I am a Google One subscriber, on a Pixel, browsing over Google Fiber.
