isn't that the manufacturer's own drat fault for setting price points so low for so long that people expect that? if they want to be profitable they need to bite the bullet and raise prices.

It comes with PreCheck which means you get to skip the pornoscanner, and go through the super fast line where you keep shoes on and don't unpack all your electronic poo poo. Also super fast through passport and customs coming back on international trips. my old employer eventually paid for global entry for all the transgender employees because the madison airport TSA just couldn't wait to get their hands up some transgender skirts for some loving reason.

Since he died from cyanide inhalation and there was a source of cyanide literally in the same small room with him means that while cyanide poisoning/murder would be obvious in other circumstances, in his specific circumstances accidental death seems more likely. how are you this fuckin dense dude

wolrah posted:PINs and patterns are relatively easy to shoulder surf and/or guess based on smudging on the screen, especially compared to these examples: For patterns its hard to evade the smudge thing but for pins you just make it long with repeated digits and you increase the number of orderings and lengths they have to try by a lot. fingerprints might be more trustworthy on an iphone, but surely not in Android land where the most popular OEM stored the finger prints as high resolution raw files in world readable storage.

Grey forum Firefox thread is advocating using insecure branch "waterfox" again because dammit the new version of Firefox broke their extension to "unfuck the ui" Imagine being so afraid of change that you'll forgo security updates and trustworthiness of the browser you run just so you can have square tabs in the bottom of your screen.

I just want to remind everyone that merely having a Facebook or Twitter account as a woman basically deputizes a Mongol horde of creeps to send you threatening and disgusting messages unprompted, and if they can attach your name to that account they will absolutely mail you poo poo, call your work with made up accusations, and phone in false reports to your local police.
