Your password must contain a minimum of one upper case character, one lower case character, one numeric character, one punctuation character, and two female characters who talk to each other about something besides a man.

Can somebodydefendexplain how multiple of those companies have "must start with a letter" as a requirement?Some programming languages have advanced string comparison functionality. In the case of passwords, they might be be a security risk however. Now iIf the first character is always a letter, the comparison method is clear. So instead of having to type an extra

on every==
you just force your customers to not use the sequences with doubtful ordering. It's an easy fix compared to developer training.Since a lot of your users are going to re-use their passwords, you're also helping others faced with the same problem by establishing a safe standard.
I think you're overestimating the seriousness with which passwords are handled.
The real reason is that if the password starts with a number, then Excel won't always display it correctly and the big spreadsheet with everybody's password in it will look funny.

This tale grew in the telling, until it became a history of the Great War of the Ring and included many glimpses of the yet more ancient history that preceded it. And then the murders began.
Or, if we're skipping the forward...
When Mr. Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton. And then the murders began.
"NINETY-EIGHT, NINETY-NINE, ONE HUNDRED" Gloria withdrew her chubby little forearm from before her eyes and stood for a moment, wrinkling her nose and blinking in the sunlight. And then the murders began.

@lolwhat said in U.S. -> Canada mobile question:
Of course, we won't have enough left over to take the ETR. Motherfucker, I can go from the very western end of New York State to the NY-MA line on the Thruway and pay less toll than to drive from Burlington to the 410. How in Christ does the province justify that?
Just for the record, nobody takes the 407 ETR. As far as I can tell it's like a giant angler fish waiting for truckers, tourists and business travellers to accidentally drive under its overhead lights and cameras.
Travelling around Toronto (Don't call it Hogtown. The locals refer to it as "Chrawnuh", an Ojibway word meaning "Traffic Jam Caused By Road Construction") is never fast, even if you're driving. Seeing all of that in only a couple nights could be hectic. The Aquarium and CN Tower together would make a good day trip, and you could follow up with dinner at Kama if they hadn't suddenly and mysteriously closed down. Centre Island is lovely, but things like the Centreville amusement park don't open until May so you may have some bored and irritable kids on your hands. Head up Yonge Street to 401 Games (which is no longer at 401 Yonge Street) and Silver Snail (which was much cooler when Mer El worked there) if your interests lean in those... um... interests.
The Science Centre is fun, but it's an all-day trip to the middle of nowhere. Okay, Don Mills, but that's practically the same thing. The Zoo can also be nice, but it's on the far side of Scarborough. That's not terrible if you have your own car, but without one you'll probably end up flying a bush plane out to a frozen lake and then taking dog sleds the rest of the way to the Zoo. Your food choices consist of either eating hot dogs and popcorn from the concessions or hunting for caribou and raccoons out on the tundra.
The ROM and AGO try hard, but they're really what happens when someone who has only read about museums and art galleries but never actually been inside of one decides that they are going to open one. By all means go if there's an exhibit that interests you, but don't expect a life changing cultural experience.
The cultural centre of Toronto was Honest Ed's, up until the end of last year. You can, however, still walk near its boarded up windows and see the signs explaining how all of the local businesses like Suspect Video and The Beguiling have all moved to make way for a giant construction site at the corner of Bathurst and Bloor.
While you're there you could head a bit to the south to visit Kensington Market where the locals do NOT take kindly to parking in the no stopping zones or west into "Koreatown" which is home to all the Bibimbap you can eat, as well as at least three bubble tea shops within a one block radius, one of the two finest ice cream shops in the neighbourhood (The other being Gregs, just outside of the JCC at Spadina), fish waffles at the PAT (which have no fish in them), Snakes and Lattes for all of your hipster board gaming needs, and some of the finest tacos in Toronto. Yes, that's kind of like saying it's the driest part of the ocean, but El Asador really is pretty good. Even people from LA agree, once they get over the residual screaming terror which comes from walking unarmed into an El Salvadoran restaurant in a Korean neighbourhood.
(You can do that in Toronto. Really. It's okay. In Toronto a "bad neighbourhood" is one where the panhandlers don't say "please" and the Tim Hortons runs out of Iced Capp after midnight.)

Pie pumpkin:

That's also Cucurbita moschata, a variety of winter squash related to butternet squash and crookneck squash.
Regular/Jack-o-lantern pumpkin:
These are Cucurbita pepo, a variety of winter squash, related to Acorn Squash and Zucchini. If they were a deeper red rather than orange they could be Cucurbita maxima, but they're still not the kind you would want to eat.
Every one of these is part of cucurbita, so they are all "squash". There is no technical definition of "pumpkin" and the US FDA's policy is that you can call any kind of squash a pumpkin and sell it as food as long as it's edible, but the same rules would allow you to make an entire pie out of orange rinds and the result would be about the same.
Decorative pumpkins are an entirely different species from the kind of squashes you use in pie. If you mix them up, you're going to have the wrong kind of pie.

I don't like pumpkin pie, but what are you even talking about? Pumpkin pies are definitely made from pumpkin.
Halloween decorations are made from a large, round orange squash commonly called a pumpkin while pumkpin pie is made from a skinny, yellowish-white squash commonly called a pie pumpkin, butternut squash, or... Johnson!.
If you tried to mash up your mash up your halloween jack-o-lantern and bake it into a pie then you would end up with one of the most disappointing culinary creations since Titus Andronicus.
But it would give you a good reason to not like pumpkin pie.

@DCRoss To be fair, you're exposing a Surface Tablet to a lot of elements when you're standing on a football field.

The impressive parts of this are:
The battery lasts long enough to play at home, drive to the park, stare at some trees while playing, drive to the airport, harass a complete stranger who really just wants to play her game, play while on a flight, land back at the same airport which you left from, take a car home while playing in the back seat, and only then be plugged back in to the dock for charging.
It can do all this, fit in one hand, and play Skyrim with what looks like decent frame rates.
Professional Splatoon teams know enough not to rely on a Surface tablet and just use paper instead.
To be fair, I played Skyrim at absolute minimum settings on an Atom 3735 powered Stream tablet and it wasn't terrible, so (2) is believable, but unless there's a Nintendo-branded car battery stuffed inside that jacket, I'm having trouble with (1).
I'm totally fine with (3).
@clatter said in Web scale breaches! This time the president's daughter might be affected!:
@dkf The official explanation is:
We recorded a $4,461 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge as a result of our annual goodwill impairment test conducted in the fourth quarter of 2015. We concluded that the carrying value of our U.S. & Canada, Europe, Latin America and Tumblr reporting units exceeded their respective estimated fair values. The goodwill impairment resulted from a combination of factors, including decreases in our market capitalization, projected operating results and estimated future cash flows.
So, they suddenly realised their brand is worthless.
If only they had tilted the exclamation point in their logo another 2% to the right to add slightly more whimsy this could all have been avoided.

“Interesting” translation.
At 3 CAD to the Zloty, it's a great deal too.
They make these for women too. It's exactly the same product, but the box is hot pink and it costs three times as much.
That's not so unusual. There have been special quarters since last century, including cleverly designed nanotech spy quarters designed to infiltrate US military installations. But don't tell anybody about that, we've got them all fooled.
The Star Trek coins are commemorative coins, so they won't be in regular circulation. They're going to sit inside plush boxes along with the rest of the Mint's catalogue including Disney Princesses, DC Princesses, Star Wars characters and, of course, Canada's own version of the Triganic Pu, a two hundred and twenty pound gold coin with a face value of $775,759.08.
(There's also a smaller version which is more convenient for carrying in your pockets when you don't need the big one. Thanks for thinking of us, Canada!)
I am a little amazed by the fact that the author of the original article not only didn't know all this, didn't know that Canada stopped making pennies years ago, and also thought it was a "clever twist" that commemorative coins were being sold for more than their face value. It's almost like interviewing the crew of the International Space Station and leading with "So, like, you guys can fly? How is that possible?"

@DCRoss said in laptop choice for developers:
ASUS T100
I have one. It can't. Well not really.
Which is why I said
An ASUS T100 can (technically) run Visual Studio
Installing just the base VS filled the entire C drive. And, due to questionable architectural decisions made during VS's infancy, that's the only place you can put it. And since the alternative storage is SD or USB (depending on the exact model), that's the only place you'd want to put it. And the screen is all of 800 pixels high. However, VS does run.
But yeah, I wouldn't want to build or debug anything complicated on that kind of system, unless it was an emergency and I wasn't in a hurry for results.
This year's model, the T100HA, is still built around an Atom, but it's a Bay Trail model and is paired with up to 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB internal storage, making it slightly less painful for serious work. It's still the kind of thing I would prefer for sending email and remotely accessing real servers.
If you're going to spend most of your time with the notebook chained to your desk then go for whatever meets your needs.
If you are expecting to lug the wee beastie around with you every day and provide remote support from the parking lot behind Burger King whenever someone breaks all your stuff before breakfast, then go for the lightest thing you can find. An ASUS T100 can (technically) run Visual Studio and an Android emulator. Just maybe not at the same time. But if it's something you will be carrying everywhere then your spine will thank you for it by this time next year.
You also have a third choice, which is to go with an underpowered ultraportable for carrying around, and a fancy desktop to leave on top of your desk for when you're doing real development. Bonus points if you already have all of the VPN infrastructure required to securely access your desktop from the Burger King parking lot.
Of course, if "I need to do development on the road" really means "I need to play No Man's Sky on the subway", then you're going to need the monster notebook anyway.

I had a cheap flash drive fail on me with a similar message (may have been the same one, but I didn't take notes) earlier this year. Depending on which device I connected it to it was either completely dead, an unrecognized device, or completely fine but likely to crash after a few minutes of sustained use.
Luckily I didn't really care about any of the data that was on it, but using different USB ports, chipsets, drivers and so on did make a difference.
@flabdablet said in Talk to me about password managers:
There is a preference for forcing single instance, but it's off by default. Probably worth checking whether 2.x has a similar preference that's on by default.

It was on by default when I installed 2.x, which could be interpreted as "forcing you to use tabs" if you look at it funny.
@FrostCat said in Android backup/restore and custom roms:
What I primarily want is to save all pictures and videos. Everything else, like Nook/Kindle libraries, can be redownloaded. I figure I could probably manually scan through the entire file system looking for pngs, jpgs, and the like, but I'd like to avoid going to that much trouble.
If that's all you want, and it's a stock G3, you can save a lot of trouble by:
When you are done, remove the SD card and label it "Backup Media".
Depends on what you mean by "take a backup". Some backup apps just do the bare minimum required to check the boxes for "did backups", so you may wind up with nothing but your address book and your high score for Sudoku backed up while everything else is thrown away.
In the past I have used Titanium backup (there are others, named after other elements. Feel free to start your own holy war about this further down thread.) to do full backups of all system data, each app itself and all of the configuration for them. After wiping and resetting everything all I had to do was install Ti, tell it where to restore from, and then go with it and everything was back the way it was before. I even had the option of excluding some apps or their private data while restoring all of the others, which was convenient.
If you are switching to a new ROM then you may run into issues with app changes -- Your backed up data for "Shiny Happy Calendar From Korea" may not play well with the "Absolutely Stock Android Open Source Project Calendar" that replaced it. Other apps should work well, though. And I don't even want to think about what would happen if you backed up that "Please Take This Phone Off Our Hands" handset that your carrier forced on you because it only runs Android 2.3 and then updated it to CM 13 before restoring. That might work or it might lead to total protonic reversal where all life as you know it stops instantaneously and every molecule in your body explodes at the speed of light. Probably a combination of the two, so it's a good thing you're not doing that.
If you're playing with custom ROMs then it is common to also install the ClockworkMod recovery image, which has its own built-in backup and recovery toys.
Anyway, short version, yes, backups will work but watch out for crap backup apps.
@blakeyrat said in Talk to me about password managers:
I don't even understand why you'd ever want more than one vault (considering they have sections and subsections and subsubsections, as shown), much-less why you'd want more than one vault in a single window. They could just open each vault in its own window and simplify the UI (and their own code!) tremendously for the 0.05% of the population who needs more than one.
My "work" tab contains only accounts which I need when I am at the office, and that file uses a different pass phrase from the "personal" one. Each of the two files is independent, is stored separately, and it is up to me which ones I want to keep open at any given time.
If it were necessary, I wouldn't feel that badly about sharing the "work" list with my coworker or replacement, although that is absolutely not true about the contents of the "personal" one which is mostly goat porn email accounts, forums, games and other stuff which nobody gets without having a lawyer reading a copy of my will first.
I can also distribute other specialized lists like "All remote console passwords in London" or "Just the admin account to the stuff that the overnight support team needs to manage" without having any concern about mixing them in with anything more sensitive.
Because Keepass can keep any number of tabs open at once, and treats them all as a single database, I (Or rather the Keyfox extension, most of the time) am shown the correct password the moment I request it, without having to worry about which list it's in. It's really a nice feature, and I would miss it if it were gone.
If my sole use case for Keepass were just sorting all of my logins for the various My Little Pony Slash archives vibrant social media hubs I belonged to, then yes having multiple password files would be pointless but handling multiple lists with differing expectations for privacy and concurrency makes it quite useful.
That may make me part of the 0.05%, but I'm okay with that.

Not only that, but he said he was running CentOS 7, which, according to the man pages here, has --no-preserve-root set by default in rm. That means his "rm -rf {foo}/{bar}" command should have failed with an error unless he had somehow explicitly sabotaged it with this end in mind.
He claims to have run this on every machine at once, during the backup window, while his backup drives were mounted on every machine, and then while recovering the data did his best impression of the "Well what if you don't have that..." interviewer by accidentally running "dd if=blankdisk of=sourcedisk" instead of "dd if=sourcedisk of=blankdisk", destroying whatever was left of his drives, and then... recovered all of the data anyway.
All this without a single customer speaking up, or any coverage of this disaster that wasn't a single anonymous post on serverfault.
