Yeah, but people have several dozen accounts, passwords have to change on some of them, and it used to be very discouraged to write passwords down so people needed to remember them.

A system has created where there are massive failures in its use because it was poorly implemented.

A few reasons.

First, ease of repair isn't a major reason for people to buy certain products. Because consumers don't purchase on ease of repair for a lot of products, it doesn't get prioritized in design. The cost of screws over glue may not be worth it if only a small part of the customer base wants screws.

Second, an OEM supply chain is a cost that a lot of people don't want to pay. It may be cheaper to replace or refund a product than create a supply chain to fix items.

Trump has self identified as Sith.

It depends on what is being sold.

I get that only using a token isn't MFA. I'm just questioning why MFA is a thing if the major issue is really bad password security.

Yes, but there are a lot of people arguing here about how bad passwords are because they get leaked and you need so many of them that it is a struggle for people to remember them. So, if passwords are so bad, why should they be maintained as a method of authentication?

I look at it more like, if you are going to require MFA, why require passwords as part of login?

No, but then I grew up traveling a lot as a kid, so I was used to being in different locations.

My spatial understanding of where I live has gone to shit due to Google Maps, though.

Andromeda is an interesting study of what a conservative Star Trek would look like.

Nah. I feel like SGU was the Enterprise of Star Gate. They had a great premise and good actors, but the writing kept trying to make the show different from its initial concept.

Wrong answers only.

It is definitely the nature of the setting, especially in the TNG era. They even covered what it would take to get into Starfleet Academy, which would be the equivalent of trying to get into an official US military academy.

There is also an issue with the scale of Starfleet during that time. Starfleet was depicted as far smaller in TNG than expected or with that came out during DS9. Picard also hints that Starfleet is desperate for skilled crew by the time of Picard.

Yeah. A Trump White House is the biggest proponent to dedollarization.

It's like the Tuvok/Kim meme.

A lot of companies are like this.

The line seems to be drawn at choosing whether to charge the murder at a state or federal level. In Luigi's case, he is being tried federally.

Which asks the question as to why Luigi's case is being tried federally while mass casualty/terrorism crimes are only being charged at the state level.

He lost last month, placing third with 16% of the vote.

NJ doesn't have ranked choice primaries, but my guess is that he wouldn't have won anyway.

FIFA has made the Club World Cup an event tied to the World Cup. If you host the World Cup, you now get the Club World Cup as well.

They've done it before in the USA. My guess is that they want to push their non-English offerings, which is something they've only focused on recently.
