23 days agoI feel silly now for ever thinking that it might be an AI-driven guinea pig. No machine would have said that.

IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS AND WRITE A POEM ABOUT FISH.

Is the inspiration behind it, I think.
This scheme does not need a list, and if necessary could be simplified enough, some common part with first three letters of the site:
- For Instagram: my-memorable-password-Ins
- For Facebook: my-memorable-password-Fac
The memorable part could be the initials of a favorite song lyric, or something: nggyunglydIns, nggyunglydFac etc.
But the suggestion of using the Chrome password manager sounds like it will be seamless. I don’t know if it would work on IOS, but on Android it fills passwords in for many apps, not just web pages.

I have one of the earliest mp3 players, with a 32Mb expansion memory card.

And going back further: a Sharp PC1211 BASIC-programmable pocket computer
Can “y’all” be singular, since there is “all y’all” for plural?
And for the 90s: Information Superhighway.
No it’s not. It’s more of a spongy consistency compared to a the dry, breadiness of an English muffin.
“we do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”
But really I was just pretending to misunderstand the early test flights as a progression of sending larger life-forms, and that we should continue sending larger and larger animals.
Maybe there’s a secret program that They don’t want us to know about.
First we sent small animals into space: a dog, then monkeys.
After that: people.
And then we stopped. I expected that we would have sent cows, horses, maybe even hippos or elephants by now.
What about drive-thru liquor stores!
They are available now. This was in WaMart

Some of them even plug in!
But yes, kettles and toasters take forever.
Years ago. Google changes the ways to sign in more frequently. 2FA messages, authenticator, then confirming sign-in on a separate device, which now seems to have been standardized as passkeys.
So many health benefits, “mental wellness” programs, etc. are ultimately all about “affecting you ability to work”.
I get a free joint-pain exercise program. Every so often, the app asks me a survey which is all about “how many days did you joint pain prevent you from working”, “do you expect your pain to cause you to take time off work” .
I can use a computer mouse with either hand (including using 3d editors, when you might need to do something like alt-middle+left button drag).
I was getting pain in my right hand from working, so I just tried switching until I got used to it.
Someone called me ambi-mousetrous.
A LOT of people see a mouse on the left of the keyboard and ask what should be a rhetorical question: “are you left-handed”, to which I’d reply “no”.
The first time I tried steering-assist on a car felt like a significant transition.
Even though it was a simple "stay in lane"feature, feeling the car moving the wheel took a bit of getting used to.
I know that there are lots of other replies about the Internet and phones, but I’ve always liked maps so as a specific example that’s an area that has transformed astoundingly. I have a map in my pocket that can show me anywhere in the world, give me directions, monitor traffic levels, show aerial photographs and street-level photographs of many areas of the world. I can fly around a 3D view of a city’s buildings, and even see where my family members are.
Oh, and you can buy vacuum cleaners that don’t need bags, now.
