I’m About To Have A Fun Afternoon.

My current password for my Secondary Discord account is 20 characters long, case-sensitive, and uses numbers in certain places as a letter substitute, plus is a variety of the base password (so even if you guess the email, you can't get into discord).

My phone passcode is a little "connect the dots" thing that android devices allow that is very unusual, but I use index fingerprints for ease of access. I will know change it to pinky fingers. No-one expects the pinkies.

“ The odds of guessing a four-digit passcode are 1 in 10,000, and tools have been used to crack iPhone codes in the past. Apple says the chances of someone having a similar enough fingerprint to unlock a person’s phone is 1 in 50,000, and a similar enough random face tricking Face ID is 1 in 1,000,000 “

that’s a really funny way of framing it, to make it look like passcodes are weak. you know what’s twice as good as the odds given for fingerprints? a 5 digit passcode! what’s equal to the odds given for Face ID? a 6 digit passcode! every time you add a digit, you multply those odds by 10.

and that’s assuming simple numeric passcodes. the odds of guessing a 4 digit, case-sensitive, alphanumeric passcode would be a 1 in 14.7 million. 5 digits is over 1 in 916 million, 6 digit is 1 in 56.8 billion. if you throw in 32 common symbols, we get 1 in 78 million, 1 in 7.3 billion, and 1 in 689 billion. those numbers climb pretty quickly the more digits you add.

i know these aren’t the only issues with passcodes (like 24% of americans using a variation of just 8 common passcodes), but if you’re trying to push people to biometrics i guess you wouldn’t really care for that nuance anyway

Have a goddamn hot chocolate with marshmallows private!

Ok, I'll look into it.

It's a massive web comic that was written in MS Paint. And there is a pun on Ms. Paint as well. It uses flash which now no longer works so you may have to go through YouTube or the way Back machine to get it. It went on hiatus for an entire YEAR, finally got updated, then ended with a massive YouTube video at the end. Then it spawned a game and yeah it had merch but what pumpkin died. Then recently a few years ago it got an update called Meat and Candy then went onto have a Homestuck^2 made. That's on indefinite hiatus now.

But it's very long. It's too many pop culture references into one story and it caused a lot of con drama and made us find out we have more idiotic humans on the planet than we realized bc someone tried sharpie dying themselves. As in their own skin.

Thanks. Sounds like the summary of Modern Day Humans. Dumb, dumb and dumber.

Haha, *flashback to the time I went canoeing in a school trip and capsized so I had a mental breakdown* yeahhhhh

teaching paddling courses to kids is so much fun because without fail every class will have one or two children who are terrified to the point of tears about getting into the canoe, and every time I ask them what they’re most afraid of. I ask genuinely, “what do you think is the worst thing that could possibly happen to you today? If something horrible happens to you today, what will that thing be?”

And it’s always that the boat will capsize, that they’ll fall in, etc.

In summer courses, the answer is easy. I just walk into the water wearing my life jacket, start floating, and say “this is what it looks like when your boat capsizes and you fall in. I’m doing it right now. I fell in.”

If it’s chilly out and I don’t want to spend all day wet, I tell them, “want to know something funny? We’re going to capsize on purpose later. We have to learn how to capsize so that we know how to help ourselves when it happens on accident. Do you think we’d so something on purpose that’s dangerous? What will happen is that we will all fall in the water, and our life jackets will hold us up. I know that, because it’s my job to check your life jacket. Then we’ll all float around until we get back in our boats, and then we’ll go inside and change. The worst part of it all is that you’ll be soggy.”

This has never failed me. They always calm down, get in the boat, and end up having fun the entire time. Time and time again, the Unknown is the ultimate fear, and a little bit of patience at the start is all it takes to keep things running smoothly.

All that said, my favorite kids are the funny ones who clearly respond well to humor, so I get to tell them, “I can absolute guarantee that no one is going to drown today. I would never let that happen, because I don’t want to have to fill out the paperwork.”
