7·1 month agoLets not forget the fellow last week that hadn’t signed in to his PS3 account for a while, so they deactivated it and he lost all his data.
Keep reaching for those red flags there Sony. Sure it will pay off.
Been connected for at least a half of an hour now, closer to an hour. Things seem normal. I’m good with it. Thanks again.
Hey thanks for that. He was able to get me some traction.

Technology@beehaw.org•LG monitors silently install software through Windows Update without consentEnglish
2·3 months agoThat’s what I thought too.
I thought it an allusion to a bible verse, specifically a verse that foretells of the earth being left in the care of the meek after the aggressive are destroyed. Those who patiently follow gods plan will remain to inherit the world.
It is a happy thought. It’s a mantra that (I’m betting) appears in just about all religious writings over many centuries, and then once again in ‘Revenge Of The Nerds 2’. A pretty common place to end up in your thoughts after a tough go at life. I’d bet most of us here have at one time or another extended ourselves to do the right thing, at great loss, and was still left holding someone else’s bag of garbage as your reward. It’s likely a bit of a defense mechanism so that you don’t go and jamb an ice pick into their nostril.
The actual audio kind of sounded a bit like ‘The Funkyverse’ to me, but it’s not a genre I log a lot of miles in, and they likely sample their stuff too. All the samplers seem to sample off of each other, I dunno how to keep it straight.

Technology@beehaw.org•LastPass notifies users of yet another data breachEnglish
1·3 months agoThat is actually quite effective, though I would likely spell out the 35 and allow sylization to create numerics.
You can likely now remember that phrase “My-brain-isnt-made-for-35c” forever if you just reinforce the memory from time to time. Creating an absurd image in your head or even using a real image to associate is another good way of remembering something. For this, I would leave myself a clue of ‘I thought 36 was OK’.

Maybe not for everything though.
Look, the amount of negativity I’m generating for myself just trying to encourage a simple alternative and self reliance is really irking me. I’ve used this method for twenty years or so, and found it to be extremely effective. Consider it a door. Use it if you want. It is possible. You are better and smarter than a machine or software. Last post about it.
