"None of the above" or "once per couple of months"

Count yourself amongst the lucky ones. (And be glad your boss didn't suddenly tell you that you're now doing iOS development. What a pile-o-crap that is.)

I have an iMac next to me intended to be used for a port. I use it periodically to test code snippets and keep it up to date. I hate it. A few months ago, it told me to reboot to finish an update, but wouldn't let me reboot because an app was running. As far as I could tell, no app was running, so I pulled the plug. That worked. Did I say I hate my mac? (It's like someone put lipstick on a pig--parts of the UI are shiny, other parts are so incredibly clunky it's just plain weird. Then there's the horror of Finder. Amd what is it with that mammoth task bar? Who thought that was a good idea. Then there's XCode. Bottom line for me is that Apple designs gorgeous hardware and crappy software.)

In the news today it revealed that the most common password is now 123456. I am going to have to disagree. You see, in order to activate my Adobe license, I had to create an Adobe account. I don't use my Adobe account for anything; nor do I care about it in anyway; so yes, I chose 123456 merely so I could use the stupid software I bought.
After thinking about it, the breach probably isn't as bad as it seems since everyone else used 123456 too; indicating that they didn't want an Adobe Account either but were merely being forced to create one to Activate.

So since 123456 is a dummy password for a dummy account, it's a garbage-in, garbage-out data breach.
Poor hackers. That would burn.

I wondered why I got that email also since I never use the Adobe account I apparently signed up for and didn't even remember why I signed up for one.
I also used some silly password on the list of top ten worst passwords like "letmein" or some such nonsense just to get through the activation process, but I don't remember which.

It would be simpler to arm and train everyone to properly use a gun than to pretend that banning guns will work or stop killings.

Sorry mate - if you're going to make a statement like that you also need to open a thread in the SoapBox and direct the endless, subjective, selective, armchair commentary (from both sides) to that forum where it has space to grow and prosper.

It was just a statement: wasn't intended to elicit anything. However, if you feel it should be in the soapybox feel free to transfer it over.

Even if you sincerely believe it, it's clearly a discussion that belongs in the soapbox.

Well, I don't agree but never mind.

You're welcome to post a link to a discussion you start in the soapbox. I promise to be civil in explaining to you why I think you're mistaken. I am sure you'll see soon enough why such a discussion does not belong in the lounge.

I have no doubt you'd be civil: that isn't the issue.
I do, however, disagree that the conversation would be best discussed in the soapbox. I wasn't looking for a conversation, just expressing a personal view.
Still, I'll put it over there and see what happens.

Of course, Mark. Obviously one would never expect such a statement in this forum would elicit anything other than mild nods and everyone would move on, keyboard untouched.

No, of course not. But you'd hopefully understand that some people would see you as being 2 beers short of a six-pack for not anticipating them and acting accordingly.

Ha! That is, of course, the left wing, communist thinking of the nanny state. Why am I to be held responsible for other people's reactions? Are they children? Are they morons? No, only the people who think we have to be responsible for other people's thoughts and actions are morons. Hello, moron.

I pointed out what to most normal people would be bleedingly obvious, yet you respond with what appears to be a direct and personal insult.
Have a closer look - I never said I felt that way, nor subscribed to that view myself. I merely said that there would be people that thought that way.
If your closing sentence was sarcasm, I'm sorry to admit it was lost on me.

I take it you left your sense of humor at home?

Yes, it appears it was.
It was meant in humor: sorry if you were offended.
