  • Well this was a JWT compromise, I think, but even still people use really bad passwords all the time. A salt is stored with the user record. The salt’s job is to invalidate rainbow tables. If you have a collection of a million bad passwords you can check them all salted in a second or two. Obviously that’ll depend on the hashing algorithm to an extent.


  • Yeah anyone not using randomly generated passwords at this point is just fucking up. I know exactly three of my passwords: the one for my email, the one for my password manager, and the one I’m likely to give out (streaming services and such). The worst anyone can do with the third is cancel my Disney+ or something, and it’s really only given to my mom and sisters.


  • Ngl I miss all the niche communities from reddit that actually had content. Like there’s nothing for The West Wing or The Wire on the lemmybin. Last hype shit for Starfield on the largest Starfield Magazine was like 3 days ago.

    Not that I really need or get that much out of that content but it’s shit I like to talk about. And sure I can create the communities or post the content, but it’s like yelling into an abyss right now.

    That’ll change as more people join, of course, it’s just a part I miss.
