1947 was a long time ago, so I think they consider themselves Pakistani.

And the “conservatives” are liberal as hell. The only thing they “conserve” is value for the ultra rich and some cherry-picked Biblical social order. Restrictions on capitalism? Let freedom ring.

Imagine how many times you’d have to do it to elicit that much blood

Yup but they aren’t profitable so we can’t have them

Unfortunately that’s not an option for most people living in the US

Yeah, I’ve heard people have to resort to some crazy stuff once porn stops working for them

Looks like Brer Rabbit really hates beans you guys

Right? The question mark in the post caption implies a mystery. Which is itself a mystery.

However, in reading the comments for clues to the caption, I misinterpreted your feet comment as an attempt to justify how this driver could possibly have profited from only fans. “I can’t possibly operate on this patient he’s my son” vibes. But now I don’t think that’s what you meant, you were maybe just drily reminding everyone that there are also feet.

Looks like 15 hours ago :(

That watermark needs font help…looks too much like Captain Kink

OHHH, is that why this is mysterious? Because people are assuming truck = dude? Which it certainly could be…but seems less likely

Upon closer reading, I think the key was imagining what you’d do with a future partner. No one imagines how much nothing they’re really gonna do nowhere

The pedestrians also walk across the actual crosswalk area, over the mechanism, showing no concern that those magic stripes could come back down and smush them at any moment. There are a handful of things that take this out of the realm of realism but for me it was mainly that—especially the lady carrying her baby under them

With media and the public discourse in the state they’re in today, this would surely be impossible to enforce. Every viewpoint can be argued to have infinite counter viewpoints and people treat it like a sport. Maybe the people of 1949 were naive enough to reckon there were two sides to every argument, but implementing this today would be akin to outlawing any kind of controversial statement or discussion in the media. Perhaps the end of politics as we kn…

Ok I’m starting to come around

We definitely underestimate the unseen value of real relationships with the people we work with. Of course, some employers aren’t interested in nurturing internal culture beyond mandating office time, which just amounts to a front row seat to the same old toxicity. So it can be a healthy thing…with a healthy company.

To be fair, the context in which they invoked the case assumed we’d all remember those details already.

Beeps don’t usually come from a speaker, no. You might find this old ELI5 about electronic sound interesting.

I see that the comment I initially replied to has been edited, but it still reads as though the second factor of 2FA is itself 2FA:

Because passwordless authentication is awesome and needs to be the standard. It’s basically just skipping the password and going straight to 2FA, which is the main security behind any account that you’ve got 2FA on.

2FA stands for two-factor authentication. The typical case you’re describing:

Factor 1: password Factor 2: device check, usually

That second step of device verification itself isn’t 2FA, it’s only the second factor of that particular 2FA, and the reason your account is more secure behind it isn’t because it’s a device check but because it’s a second factor. There’s not really a “main” security check in 2FA because having two is the whole point.

I do have thoughts about passwordless as a standalone security measure, but that’s not at all what I’m addressing here. I will add, however, that since passwordless can only ever be as strong as the security on your email account…it might seem like enough if your email is protected by 2FA—but not if you mistakenly leave your email logged in on a device someone else has access to, which may sound stupid but it definitely happens.

I’m not defending passwords specifically. You could do better 2FA with email + biometrics, although of course device authentication is only as secure as the device itself—but that’s entirely beside the point, which is that there must be two factors if you’re going to call something two factor authentication.
