@BernieTheBernie I'm not implying. I'm stating it outright.

If hawks matched their symbolic significance as well as doves or owls matched theirs, you'd have no qualms about letting them share a crib with your infant child.
Having encountered those other birds in significant numbers, I can confidently state that owls are actually rather dim. And doves are vicious assholes.

My wife has phobias if birds and moths. When I played the video to her she sounded pretty much like the girl in the video. Though she seems to like corvids.
Me on the other hand, I'd probably just say hello and try to pretty the hawk.

@topspin Weird. Specifically Microsoft accounts are staying logged in for me for years. The web is dumb and once you have more than one account—I have several mine plus a couple of test ones—it keeps asking you which one you want to use in this tab on every reload or just after some time of inactivity, but for most of them it only asks me for password and approval in the second fucktor app once in a blue moon.
-
@Bulb I didn't make the image, but just this morning it again asked me to log in for some shit while I was logged in in a different tab. Also, there's a check box that says something akin to "keep me logged in and don't ask so often". Which I always check, whithout much effect.

Of course. This is Microsoft ; any setting claiming to let the user make a choice is a placebo.
-
@topspin There is one funky effect of the redirect-to-login approach: if multiple tabs time out, they'll all redirect to the login page, so if you log in to the first one, the others will still be asking for your credentials. Just refresh or back or something like that and they'll realize you are actually logged in. That's not specific to microsoft, I always loathe this effect on the internal apps (that verify the password against AD, but not AAD, so they still each want the password separately).
-
@topspin Also, one of the logins asks me for password every day, and the test accounts do … not sure, but something like every week or so. Which indicates this is a per-domain setting and therefore might be the fault of your paranoid preventer of information services rather than Microsoft's.

@topspin Wrong logo. For me it's google (on my ubuntu box) which will say I've successfully logged in then on the next click state I need to log in again.

this effect even spans across applications ... if MS somehow decided you need to authenticate again I'll typically get avalanched by Outlook, Teams, Sharepoint, OneDrive, Azure, some open Excel file and Windows itself. Not all of them are all that clever in detecting that you re-authenticated somewhere else Outlook and OneDrive often need a nudge to get the hint. It doesn't help that you authenticate in one of those dozen authenticate screens that popped up to the point that I often don't actually know what app I was authenticating explicitly and witch ones I should kick just for good measure. Luckily it doesn't propagate to 3th parties that use AD/Azure authentication or the amount would even double with the VPN, Jira, the HR portals (!) and the remote connection tool joining in.

Yeah, I didn't consider the “thick” apps, because I insisted on our ICT fixing the AAD registration of the devices, so now when I am logged into Windows using the internal AD, I'm also logged into the AAD and the thick apps can use that login. So it's just the apps where I'm using test or otherwise separate accounts often and those are all web, so when they use oauth2, and not own login dialog, they share the credential cache properly.
If you need to enter login into outlook, word and the like, you should probably pester your domain admins to fix the integration.

I had some funny shits with Ebay recently. Suddenly when following a link they sent me by email, it required me give my credentials, and then came up with the "security questions". Oh fuck, I just entered some random characters there originally, and the paper clip with the shit is ... not here.
But then I just went to the normal landing page, and was automagically
lockedlogged in. Looked around in the "my ebay" submenu, and eventually found that item they sent me the email about. Could then do all things I was required to do without a fresh login.But trying to follow their email link will require me to login including security questions.

@BernieTheBernie My browser somehow got banned from my health insurance website, it won't even load. Works fine if I do it in an incognito window.

Yes, yes it would. And yet I cleared the cookies for that site and still blocked. Must be some third party cookies, but that's a PITA to figure out.
Also surprisingly got a response from a different insurance company that doesn't allow you to paste into the confirm password field when changing password. They said it was a security "feature" to prevent people from mistyping their pw or something. I explained to them that only idiots type in their passwords because only idiots reuse their passwords.

Unless you're ServiceHow, which royally fucks up if you have more than one window/tab open to it.

Today I relearned MariaSQL is named after Monty Widenius's second daughter.
More surprisingly, I learned MySQL was already named after his first daugther My. 1
Edit, to clarify, given the thread: this is not a joke. It's a Finnish name.

@Zecc TIL thread is . Also, it’s a swedish name too as MySQL is a swedish company/product. Also, Lilla My is a Moomin character too. The topknot redhead kid, which I could add an image of if not for being on mobile and .

Like I posted this is the most useless dialog of the entire IT industry. It doesn't matter if you check or uncheck the box, click yes or no, or any combination of those, it still changes nothing

His son is Max, who he named MaxDB after.
