Both. The salting SHOULD happen in one way Hash functions. But sometimes it does not. Using your own prefix when always using the same password is the second worst solution but at least better than nothing. Poor mans salting :-) Use a PW ma

He would have to break the cryptographic algo to see the salt. Good luck with that. Sure that is possible for the NSA with weak encryption. But most hackers wont be able to do this. The salt does not give a slightly different hash but a tot

Yeah, idiot web programmers that don't encrypt PWs and use salting. Use a PW manager. If you really don't want to use one, don't use the same PW. At least at your own salt. eg. HN@thepwialwaysuse4 HN would be the "salt&q

I used it before I moved to enpass. There were a few reasons. I think the main one was that it did not offer pw synchronization between my desktop and laptop. Once I got used to enpass, it felt much more convenient. I don't use the bro

This is the best password manager I know: https://www.enpass.io/ It should solve your problems. It is not open source and costs money if you want to use it on your phone (which I don't). Saves everything. PW, CC, notes

I do IT but I am not really a CS guy. Too many programs that I was not able to install due to dependency problems. This is rarely a problem under Ubuntu. But I admit that it has been ages that I moved away from SuSE. I will likely leave Ubu

I think this is a serious question. I think everybody takes things differently. Genetics? Not everybody gets PTSD. So how you define "trauma"?

Hm. I have a very old German Tube Amplifier (K+H) from my grandfather and some USSR made speakers (Radiotehnika Audio - GoldLine 90, 30kg each). But this system would cost you know 1-2k. But I was lucky and bought the speakers for 100 USD n

Honestly I was not aware that Pick up trucks like cars can come with third row seats.

Some pictures look indeed good.

No. Basically the pick up truck like this: https://truck-hero.com/are-v-series-truck-cap But the back space connected/open with the main cabin.

by newdude116 5y ago
This looks just like a regular pick up? I would want the back space covered and accessible from the cabin. I guess the next best thing would be a Land Rover Defender. This car looks intriguing but comes with a huge price tag https:/&#

Huh, as far as I know station wagons are very common in Europe. Do you know what I want? A mixture between a station wagon and a Pick up Truck. I love Pick up trucks but I don't find them well suited for transporting dogs.

Yes you can. Money goes a long way there. Buddy of mine had two, one was illegal. When they make a law that you can have two, he made a third. I guess he will make a 4th now to send a clear message to the government :-)

"The country’s energy consumption is down to 1990 levels." Yes, sure. Since they outsourced the energy intensive productions. But since you don't want to understand it, it is meaningless to try to explain it to you.
