So they should put a green check with wording like
Any of these can be used: < > …
Awful language. Not your problem!
|
|
|
|

Doesn't the BIG RED 'X' in front of "Quote: Special characters except for # & * < > ( ) ' [ ] mean that you can use THOSE special characters, but none other?
|
|
|
|
|
That's interesting, because someone else thought that also.
But, notice that the message next to it says, "Special characters except for # & * < > ( ) ' [ ]
Also, I had tried to use one of the ones listed which is how I got the warning.
So, they obviously have a confusing message along with the other problems they have.

Your statement cracked me up!
Indeed it does.
It's why most people choose to not look at things very closely.

If a site can't state the policy in a single non-run-on sentence I would avoid it. Extravagant parsing or using regular expressions to validate a user's password seems over-engineered.

Agree 100%!
I don't understand why they don't just:
1. hash your plaintext password.
2. compare it to known bad password hashes
3. if it matches any of the known bad, then reject, otherwise store your hash and be done
Why they looking at my password so closely, anyway?

The fact that this is still being used today is amazing.
I grew up close to Cleveland, Ohio and living in various other states
like Colorado, New Mexico, Oregon and now Arizona machines of this size we seldom seen
not that I was looking for them.
Please enjoy the story. Comment about BIG industry near you curious what is in other parts of the world.

I'm not reading it. The GDPR banner for that site is one of those "you have to disable each vender individually - here is a huge list, have fun." ones and life is too short to spend 10 minutes clicking on "No, I don't want you get my info to do with as you will" checkboxes.

I am not sure I understand the link did not try to steal any information when I used it
I will try to delete the post.

Good luck with deleting ...
On that note, after getting the message "Anonymous posting is not allowed" I'm thinking that I was not who I was when I signed in to comment on this ... news

Meanwhile you can't delete the post (because replied from members), but you can edit it and remove the link
On the other hand, I see no problem with that link...

It's not the link trying to steal info, it's the GDPR management screen that insists you untick everyone you don't want them to sell your info to - if you just pressed "accept" to get rid of it once it will sell it to every on on a long list because you have said they can. They have to show the GDPR dialog, but they don't have to have just an "accept" and a "reject" button.
That annoys me because they deliberately make it hard to prevent them doing it. So I just walk away and don't go back.

OG I did not have that experience
I did click the CLOSE when they asked about push notifications
and no other pop up questions after that
I am using Firefox with a lot of blocking enabled in the settings
Thanks for explaining

Probably because you're in the USA.
Explicitly asking for permission to collect and sell your data is mandatory in the EU.

I've never seen (or in reality, noticed) such a long cookie-mamagement list, but had a go at deleting a few - then gave up. Allowed what was left, removed the whole set of cookies from FF and could then read at my leisure. Probably won't be going back.

Same.
When I really want to see such a website I open up the console and disable all checkboxes programmatically
In this particular case you could use: Array.from(document.getElementsByTagName('input')).forEach(i => i.checked = false)
Of course you'll have to run it on the settings and on the vendors tab separately.

This reminds of story that I still find fascinating. Back when I was in college and studying Strengths of Materials one day the professor took us down the basement lab. The school had been hired as an expert witness in a court case. What happened was a grain elevator had been built and it collapsed resulting several deaths and the design company was sued. They contended that the design was sound and the construction was faulty. The school was given the job of constructing a section of the elevator wall according to specification and verify its capacity. As I recall, the specification called for two quarter-inch beads of glue and a nail every six inches on every board which were 2x4s with their wide side laid horizontally. They built about a 10x10 foot (I think it was) section of the wall and put it in the school's press to test it. This press was not nearly has massive as the USAF's in that article but it was pretty hefty. After testing, they found the specifications for the wall to be more than adequate. The wall was supported in the test by an I-beam whose members were one-inch thick steel and what happened was the I-beam began to deflect before the wall did so that verified that the wall was as stout as intended. The court found that the design was sound and the builders skimped by using one bead of glue and half the number of nails so the construction company was at fault.

Years ago I worked for a company that among other thing made paper milk cartons.
We would take all scrap to a press that would press the paper into a bundle so it could be recycled.
The lip of the press was at floor level and the moving part of the press came down into the floor.
We had a guy working there that was a real moron, and one day me and another guy were taking some cardboard to the press and when we started the machine we heard a groan from the pit and here's this guy down there. He had fallen in!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

While living in Oregon I got to visit Boise Cascade plant where they made plywood
I ask the guide what would happen if someone fell in the press he replied
"The plywood would be red and ruined"
OSHA wanted a fence around the press that did not happen it slowed the loading process
Working at Diebold Lock & Safe the crane operator high up 100 ft or more dropped a
Bank Vault door because the load was not rigged up secure by the loader

In the drayage business (rigging) that is what is refered to as "greasing the skids". When I worked as a summer gandy (assistant) to big-boy haulers (drivers with licenses) consigned to removing Bullard Machine Presses from a big-name corporation assembly factory I was told this story about how that term came into being.
To make a big story smaller then, short of cutting a big hole in the roof and using a big crane to pull the press out and swing it over onto a flatbed, the riggers sent a gandy down to the drug store to buy a case of Irish Spring and bring it back to the job site. Putting the rest of the gandies to work then, each with a bar of soap under a foot, the floor of the factory was smudged up with a quarter inch of bar soap. When a path of proper length was achieved, through the factory, between the other presses/big machines, the moved press was jockyed onto the slick layer and pushed all the way out of the factory. Then lifted onto the flatbed.
Fun facts!
ooo ... watch your head ...
