    • Doesn’t show password requirements until after first attempt is rejected
    • Password expiration w/o any alert
    • Arbitrary password length requirements (specifically max length)
    • Arbitrary character requirements (particularly disallowing or only allowing a certain subset of special characters)
    • Only offering SMS as “2FA”
    • Using email “2FA” on every. Login. Attempt. And offering no real 2FA alternative.

    All of these are reasons I will look to move my business to a competitor.








  • This really is the answer. The more services you add, the more of your attention they will require. Granted, for most services already integrated into the distro’s repo, the added admin overhead will likely be minimal, but it can add up. That’s not to say the admin overhead can’t be addressed. That’s why scripting and crons, among some other utilities, exist!












  • I was listening to Behind the Bastards and the guest asked him why it seems like there’s a pattern of crazy wealthy people doing sex pest things. He said there was a study that related a certain level of wealth to having a brain injury. Basically, when you have a certain amount of crazy obscene wealth, the concept of value loses all meaning to you, and that loss affects other types of value as well - like personal value. Wish I could find more about that. Seems like it would be an interesting read.

    That said, I would take my unlimited money and build an underwater Bond villain lair. From there I would do what I could to make the world better, but leave me alone.
