Agree that at 1/32 and beyond it was mostly a feeling. Only one of the 1/64 I felt like I just had it locked in and it wasn’t guessing. 1/32 maybe half and half felt like I didn’t have it at all vs felt it strongly.

Ah the summer uptime problem... Found this photo from a room in the EC basement one summer. Note the masking tape with the floor they came from.

Haha I had no idea Apple did this. Nintendo (youtube.com/watch?v=ix5yZm4f…) and Sega (youtube.com/watch?v=-aLfKnJA…) both did a similar thing but with trademarks. What a lulzy protection strategy. 😂

TIL DNS over HTTPS was a thing, but mainly I am loving reading the Wikipedia page in my head as Homer Simpson.

I have to give some real props to the team who did the security experience on login.gov. I can't actually think of *any* website (gov't or commercial) with this level of flexibility.
