Oh umm. I would never make my password this...

I think if you do allow 8 character passwords the only stipulation is that you check it against known compromised password lists. Again, pretty reasonable.

School is usually cancelled because the schools are often polling locations.

It makes it all the more dumb to not have it as a national holiday.

There are campgain signs out that say "Law and Order Matters"

.... sponsored by the local Republicans.

I assumed it was a Dem sign then I saw who sponsored it, then I assumed it was a joke, then I realized that no, it's real and they are just that deluded.

People get annoyed that "people hire their friends", but the reality is, when you have a sea of random people all lying in various forms on resumes, HR on job postings, etc it's so much easier and usually better for a company to have 'vetted' candidates proposed by current employees. Ie networking.

It's still the best way to get a job even with all of this fancy HR algorithm bs.

More like: big money and corporate lobbying is ruining democracy. These are just the big boys.

I'm not being flippant but how else would or should I control my smart plugs and lights? Or set a timer with a voice command? Get my devices set up for "movie time" or control music ?

I paid for the Mycroft and that was a flop and they are now out of business.

Using an app is kind of a shitty interface for that type of thing. Even if I managed to do the rain dance to get home assistant up and running with my stuff...

Hell no. Play to win. As soon as you start playing to "not lose", you'll lose.

I love the confidence of this and let's not pretend she won't smack him harder the second time. She's a former prosecutor and she's also not 800 years old.

He's scared, weak, and fragile. Call him out on it.

Former presidents dont typically get involved in presidential politics(especially of their own party ) after they leave.

They'll typically stump for candidates in their own party if they were a popular former president.

You could argue that his lack of involvement with Trump's campaign is pretty telling.

I grew up in a religious household. My parents made me go to church and youth group until about 16-17 when I pushed back (still had to go to church but not youth group).

I was always more skeptical of it all. Even as a kid I remember having these "wtf, that doesn't make sense. So dinosaurs were..on the ark?"

Anyway, after a couple decades of separation from it all you realize how absolutely bonkers religion is. The amount of mental backflips you need to make for it to make even a little sense is borderline insanity.

It's crazy how otherwise very intelligent people just...go with it and never challenge it. Then will fight with you if you challenge it.
