No sympathy for him, but it got me wondering if it's really fair to subject elderly people and others who have difficulty standing to the "walk the line" test.

They're part of Department of Homeland Security. NSA is part of Department of Defense. So they're actually not, unless you meant this figuratively.

I've found on my android phone that the bitwarden prompt comes up more reliably if I tap on the password field instead of the username field.

Most people do not know who Satoshi is.

This is the integrated search on the home screen of my android (pixel). For a lot of mobile phone users, it's the fastest way to search something. I can just Google search directly from the home screen instead of opening up a browser.

Apparently official skin support no longer exists but Millennium for Steam looks like an unofficial tool that can be used for skins.

Exactly! Just like how we say twenty eleven for 2011.

Now the years 2001-2009 we just don't talk about...

The good news is, a lot of old secrets won't really matter anymore by the time we have quantum computers that can break the encryption. There will obviously be a big impact on information that was encrypted just before we get a working quantum computer that can crack modern crypto.

In cryptography discussions, I feel like we're usually implying (or even saying out loud) that the encryption is secure for a sufficient amount of time and computer power. Perhaps people outside of cryptography don't know it, but I think there is a reasonable expectation that encrypted communications could be decrypted at some point in the future. We just hope it's sufficiently far enough away (or difficult enough) to not be a problem.

Honestly as soon as we get some good post-quantum crypto, we'll probably want to switch over to it asap, even if good quantum computers are still far out, just to help alleviate some of this problem. Of course, I imagine we're still going to be finding new things once the technology is real and being used. Let's hope the post-quantum cryptography algorithms we come up with actually are strong against a sufficiently large quantum computer.

First three search queries I did had zero results. Seems cool but not enough stuff indexed, I guess.

Yeah I saw this news today and literally don't even understand how it affects me. I don't know what the difference is between Wallet and Pay.
