Just wanted to say that I found the description of your job really interesting, so thanks for taking the time to write about it.
There’s absolutely no way that I could do it - I’m far too squeamish. But I’m glad that there are people who can do a job like this, which increases mankind’s understanding of diseases.
I don’t think this should be downvoted. Brave Search is one of the very few search engines that is building its own index.
DuckDuckGo and Startpage are both great, however DDG uses results from Bing and Startpage uses results from Google.
We need proper competition against these big tech giants, and Brave Search is one of the few alternatives which is attempting to provide it. Mojeek is another search engine which uses its own index.
Am I missing something here? I count the total number of net beneficial decisions to be 22, and total number of net disadvantageous decisions to be 21.
Shouldn’t both totals be the same number? When one team gets a beneficial decision, it can only happen at the expense of another team (i.e. it’s a zero-sum game).
I could understand the discrepancy if this analysis were counting games in other competitions, but this is only counting Premier games so I would expect equal totals.
I’m a native English speaker so I can’t really contribute much to this post, but I remember watching a hidden camera prank show in the 90s, and the victim of the prank started yelling at the guy who pranked him. Unfortunately, I don’t know what language the show was in.
The TV show translated the insults he used and put it in the subtitles… and one of the insults was “curse the pig who delivered you”.
It probably sounded fine in his language but I remember thinking how oddly specific and personal to insult the midwife who helped your mother give birth to you lol.
Maybe there’s someone here who can recognise what phrase and language was used here?
“What was Wenger thinking, sending Walcott on that early?”
Ah ok, thanks for letting me know. I haven’t used KeePass in a long time but I’m going to download it and give it another try now. It sounds like a good idea to avoid passwords from being stored in the clipboard. Thanks.
Good idea, although this wouldn’t tell you if they truncated the password at 9 characters instead (or 10 or 11 characters etc).
So you would have to try different attempts without making too many in one sitting that gets you locked out.
If you tried your password without the last character, then I think that would tell you if ANY truncation is being used (but it won’t tell you whether it happened at the 8th, 9th, 10th etc character). But that seems like the best thing to try first just to rule it out.
Yes I’ve made a similar mistake in the past. On one screen I performed the auto-type and it was in the process of typing out the user/password combination, and while this was happening I clicked into a chat window on my other screen without thinking. The chat window immediately started having part of my password typing into it!
Luckily I managed to click elsewhere in time to prevent ‘enter’ being typed at the end of auto-type.
It’s just a reminder that you have to wait for auto-type to complete before you can do anything else.
The UI isn't obvious into which window it will autotype
I found that if you click into the username field first and then switch directly to KeePass without opening/switching to any other applications in between, then when you click auto-type in KeePass, it works every time. This is because the browser window was the last used application before KeePass was selected. But yeah, it’s not an ideal user experience.
I could be wrong because I haven’t used KeePass in a few years… but it’s my understanding that the auto-type feature doesn’t work on every website, depending on how they’re designed.
So auto-type will work on websites where the username input field and password input field are on the same page, and where you can switch from the username field to the password field with a single tab key press.
However I don’t think it will work on sites where the username needs to be submitted first before the password field is even visible. I think signing into a Google account is an example of this.
At least that was my experience when I was using KeePass a few years ago. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Well said, I agree with you. The politics/debates can be so intense that it can prevent Lemmy from being a place where people go to just relax and switch off. Even the meme communities have so much political content.
And I suppose it’s only going to intensify during the U.S. election later this year.
