>Even if you used 6 words with spaces in between, how is that a secure password?
Its not

>>57433828
Apparently it's more secure than you think

>use a dictionary of 10000 words to generate password
>randomly select 6 of those words in a random order

Literally a one in 100000000000000000000 chance of guessing the password. At a trillion guesses a second, it would still take years to crack.

If you're paranoid, use 7 words and you're looking at a one in 10^25 chance. That is assuming they know you use a diceware password. If their dictionary includes numbers or intentional spelling errors then it will take them significantly longer.

>if AWS were targeted we could see the largest hosting provider taken out
LOL I stopped reading there.

AWS is probably THE most resilient, secure public system around. They run on a Region + Availability Zone system, where each Region has it's own set of Availability Zones (AZ) to act as backup networks. Each AZ is powered by independent electrical grids. Not to mention each of these server locations are in huge unmarked buildings, with max security and heavy monitoring and highly secure access/privilege systems for the personnel.

If there were ever a mega-catastrophic event like nuclear war / asteroid on half the planet, AWS would still be up and running on whatever surviving life there is on this planet.

Taking down AWS basically means taking down all the electrical grids in the world, as well as the backup systems of the backup systems of the backup systems of the...

It's just not possible unless you're AWS yourself.

it's almost like companies seek out for minimal wage jobs that meet an arbitrary requirement

Because Pajeets need fucking jobs more than other applicants for those jobs so they'll compete by working for less. IT is much cleaner than any other job in Pooland so I can't blame them.

>his thinkpad is an IBM
Says you're using old shit. Lenovo bought IBM in 2005, and the IBM branding remained on some ThinkPad models (like the T60) until around 2008.

what are you guys cucks?

I have a retina from 2014.

It feels very useful and I'm able to do real work with it.

Why do all these changes? They're just confusing.

This is how Apple views today's "young professionals".

Will you hear a difference? Depends on your earphones. What you'll hear is most likely some sort of equalizer bullshit that makes you think it was a good buy.

Soundcards are massive memes. You could use one to pass through to a VM or something, but that's not necessary, even if you do use passthrough VMs. Just don't bother with external soundcards.

True. I'm thinking about supporting this project but I'm not sure anyone use it... was gnunet usable (many intrestig files?)

ThinkPad, it's giving all the money to the communists.

I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

I'm 12 and what is this?

They still exist, they're just not as prevalent since you can either find the info built into the OS documentation or on the internet.

Paying the physical markup for a book that conveys the same information you can get from a webpage for free is retarded, unless for some reason you're trapped without internet but somehow also have access to a bookstore/library that stocks the relevant volumes.

man man
