RE: The dangers of powering down

No problems :) So when I would try to transfer my STEEM out, I'd get a message saying something along the lines of "You have exceeded your maximum bandwidth", which I can only assume means that

RE: The dangers of powering down

RE: Boston Dynamics Introduces "Handle" - A Very Impressive Robot

It's good to see Boston Dynamics start to move away from only doing designs inspired by nature and humans and start producing designs that are more efficient than naturally evolved ones. It's hella creepy

RE: How to enable Root on Ubuntu

RE: I never remember any passwords because I don't have to

So what happens when you need to change your password because Cloudflare dumped your session to some other user? They can now get in to your account unless you come up with a new algorithm which you have

RE: Offline Attack on Steem User Credentials

That's pretty terrifying, and it's a good job that you posted this... It hadn't occurred that of course hashed passwords are going to be freely available offline because in using a web UI you're used to

RE: Thoughts on Cyberpunk-style credstick cryptocurrency

RE: The What and Why of Phishing, and How to Avoid It

That chrome-extension phish is a really nasty one and was probably super easy to do... chrome should totally be adding some builtin protection for things like that because it's particularly insidious.

RE: Shared Responsibility

@stan Have you read The Peripheral by William Gibson? There's a tangentially similar concept in that which I think you'd get a kick out of if you haven't read it already. This dovetails very nicely with
