- Comment on Why have so many services started using single-factor passwordless authentication in the last little while? 2 days ago:
If the registration email is compromised, the attacker can reset the password. So the password doesn’t offer any additional security, in actual practice, over just testing control of the registration email address.

It makes a sloppy user safer but increases the demands on a safe user while increasing their attack surface.

You can generate one-time-use email addresses by using the little-know mailbox field of the email address format:
kepix+you_can_write_anything_here_and_it_will_reach_your_inbox@gmail.comObviously this will not fool a human being into thinking you are a different person, but I have never encountered authentication code that two mailboxes at the same address to be the same person. This is useful for identifying the source of data breaches, when you start getting phishing attacks at your “kepix+reddit.com@gmail.com” address, and makes it trivial to train your spam/important filters.

No don’t look it up, just assume that you know what it means without ever seeing a definition because your brain is just better than everyone else’s.

Two week old change. Rather pointed.
Source code availability only partially addresses your parent’s concerns. I think it’s funny but I think it’s muuuuuuch bigger dick move than adopting an affectation, and it doesn’t reflect well on PieFed. I’m not going to review all the code in the project, I’m just going to pay less attention to the project overall.

The primary user has stated it’s because of AI. It doesn’t have to be effective to be the motivation.

That’s savage.

- Comment on Introverts of our era spend their time on their computers, but what did introverts do before? Like when literacy rates were lower (pre-1950s)? Or before the printing press? 2 weeks ago:
Before the Internet, I read books. Everywhere, constantly. Haven’t read a book since the 90s, probably.
- Comment on Anon uses the internet like a normie 2 weeks ago:
It’s like complaining that people always use the word “address” to describe IP endpoints. THAT’S THE WORD FOR IT. When you say “slop” people know you mean AI generated content; when you say “garbage”, they don’t.

He probably meant the word that rhymes with “buck” and not the racial slur.

I hoped it would be a catalyst for positive change. Ha ha ha. Humans have an optimistic bias, it’ll creep in even when you think you’re seeing reality.

Perfect.

I hate this because “species” is more specific than “order”. It should have been, eg, “…not even my phylum!”

No, I don’t think so. You’ve introduced metagaming. It’s an interesting thing you’ve created, but it’s not the same kind of thing.

No one is “cleared for psychosis”, it can occur to anyone and not just from psychiatric conditions. I cannot reason you into seeing this if you are in the middle of it, but I do sincerely hope you show this to someone in your life, even if it’s just because you’re curious what they would say. People in psychosis rarely intentionally do anything dangerous even when urged by its narrative, but they can easily accidentally do things to harm themselves and others, and it can place an enormous strain on relationships if left untreated.
- Comment on Has anyone else experienced these psychological changes after eating meat? 5 weeks ago:
One don’t have a choice in the matter. One cannot think one’s way out of psychosis. It just incorporates one’s ideas on the subject and continues to blossom. Please show your posts and comments to someone you trust IRL.

I learned to control symptoms so much it sense a second nature.
That belief is symptomatic.

No one is saying you’re bipolar. We’re saying you are obviously not well. I think it was irresponsible for people to call what we are seeing mania with such certainty but you have certainly started to lost touch with our shared reality.

Yeah but that’s not the analogous part

What’s that mean exactly, that they use proteins that can be further folded, and exploit that?
