- lelanthran 1y agoWhen I got my first credit card, circa mid-90s, no one told me I had to sign the bank. Took my brand new card with my brand new girlfriend to a shop and bought something. Handed the clerk my card during payment, she looked at it and said it is not signed so she is not allowed to accept it. I took it back, she gave me a pen, I signed it and gave it back to her. She ran the transaction, got an approved slip, gave me the slip to sign, I signed it and gave it back. She compared the signature on the slip to the signature on the back of the car, and Lo And Behold, They Matched!

- sunrunner 1y agoI personally don't mind this because I've been burned too many times by services that mangle a new password in some invisible way, for example silent truncation, so I like the opportunity to log in just to make sure that the update has worked, the value in my password manager is correct, etc.
