      It's more of "fake complexity." Seems complex when you describe it but is actually very simple. Or, fake is probably wrong, it's "complex to the wrong party." The computer is confused by it, humans struggle to tell where the complexity is supposed to exist.

      I really need to look into Windows AD settings for passwords and get my clients all using 12+ character pass phrases.

        AFAIK the only practical thing to do is enforce really long passwords while removing essentially all complexity requirements and having a little user training. Not sure if there is any heuristics available that can improve on that formula much beyond that at this point.

          That is my opinion as well.

              Awake in Texas. I think that the family is all heading to the mainland to do family Christmas Tree decorating and to play with their cousins. So, if all goes to plan, I will be getting a quiet day to myself.

                Trying to get games downloaded from Steam. Making good progress. Have a big selection now and a lot of the ones that we are most likely to play. Starting the process of "filling in" the bigger titles or ones less likely to get used much. Hoping to actually get to play something today.

                    I see @scottalanmiller is loading and closing games (as they install?) for testing purposes, either that or it's "I can't believe I bought this... DELETE!"

                        @scottalanmiller Not sure I could live somewhere without indoor plumbing... It is just way too convenient not to have.

                        But it makes you appreciate what we have,..

                        but there are a few things I would give up...

                                obviously I'm doing some catch up. Went to the Christmas Parade last night with the family. Seems to be more vehicles this year than last...

                                  Moving my desk around - had lost some papers which I still haven't found. But in doing so added an old VGA monitor to the NTG desktop. I am pretty sure with the adapter I have,.. I can add yet one more monitor.

                                  I have two Asus 24" Monitors now... will get one more. And just found a 19" Dell that works.

                                  It's the little things....

                                    You could do it the lazy man's way. A container of tannerite (exploding target) and a rifle.

                                          lol - yes. When the neighborhood kids are over, or when the kids are out of school - I have a spot that is a quiet zone for calls.
