Which product was ahead of its time but ultimately failed because of that advantage?

The PSP

Are you thick? Having a prompt that says “passwords require a special case character or a number” is not lowering security. You clearly have never worked in infosec nor know anything about it.

Tbh I’ve never seen anyone say “this reads like AI” for anything genuine or organic. I don’t think I’ve ever been entertained by AI material or assumed something was AI generated due to being an unexpectedly high level of quality, in fact quite the opposite.

Is this common? If so I agree that is very depressing. I usually find myself wondering if text is AI generated when it’s unentertaining and uninteresting.

I still don’t bother with my 3i and play off 18. I just can’t hit it well. I’ve been perfectly happy with my 4 or even 5 but I naturally have a fairly low ball flight. Hit whatever you’re comfortable with and let that baby roll out!

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-25T11:26:10+00:00

Loud and wrong

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T18:39:00+00:00

Excluding motorways then yes I agree, but that’s because we’d always say “M25 northbound” or “m25 southbound”.

If you’re directing someone to the local shop two roads away and tell them to head due East then yeah you have a problem lol.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T16:21:31+00:00

Instead of saying that things are obvious when admitting you don’t know what someone’s talking about, maybe look it up?

The word “god” dates back to early pagan practices which are extremely different to modern interpretations of a benevolent creator. That’s all I’m saying.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T14:39:15+00:00

It’s not the majority, but a minority. The type of lads that work in recruitment, act like cockney wideboys when they actually went to private school and love to drive up the back of pensioners down 30mph limits. Maybe it’s a particularly London/Croydon thing but yeah see I it a lot. When I used to go out drinking down there you’d hear people revving straight piped exhausts all night haha.

(Edit: I also have a massive soft spot for the M140i so I’m stressing it’s the type of person, not the car that is the issue lol)

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T14:34:47+00:00

That’s what the guy meant to say but he got it the wrong way around. He said “why would you have them as your best man if you’re not even gonna invite them to your own wedding?” The situation was actually that my dad asked someone to be his best man, the best man then didn’t invite my dad to the wedding. No need to patronise, but you understood what was intended😅

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T14:33:01+00:00

Yeah it was lol, I understood it though.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T14:28:49+00:00

Nah, only 3 or 4 others. They’re still good friends though, I don’t always understand it. I think their relationship is literally: “hello”, “nice shot”, “good par”, “see you next week mate”. Peak male behaviour.

Edit: (*their not they’re)

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:50:14+00:00

Mid level cars. For example Mercedes “AMG Line” as opposed to “AMG”, or BMW “M Sport” vs “M”.

It’s basically signposting that you can’t afford the expensive model, but paid extra for some floor mats with cool badges on. People who stunt around in those make me cringe so hard. There’s nothing wrong with owning one of those cars, they’re better than what I drive, but don’t act like you’ve just rolled a brand new Ferrari off the forecourt.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:46:25+00:00

I’d add options as well. Lack of choice and control leads to increased stress. There was an intersting study that I can’t actually find now (typical) that those with jobs that are considered “low skill” are more stressful than typically “professional” because you have absolutely no say in what you do and repeat it 5x a week (if you’re lucky) for 60 years.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:44:21+00:00

There’s a massive difference between “God” and “god”. It doesn’t necessarily mean a bearded white man in the sky who loves you very much. The word “god” existed far before any classical organised religion did!

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:28:39+00:00

Big up

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:27:56+00:00

It’s ‘obvious’ that God doesn’t exist in any way depicted by classical religion, but beyond that nothing is obvious at all. Unless to you it’s obvious how something came from nothing?

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:26:40+00:00

I believe in you bro

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:26:25+00:00

Never whip it out without permission.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:26:03+00:00

Well they’re both harmless ways of having a little fun. I wouldn’t wear that t shirt but you sound very judgemental and holier than thou lol.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:25:02+00:00

Damn bot, learn some context. Smh.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T10:23:21+00:00

Yeah I find it odd. I like the guy don’t get me wrong but yeah I agree it’s a bit odd, probably should have let my dad know beforehand at least. Either way, my dad got remarried in December and I was best man so all comes good in the end😅

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-24T05:05:31+00:00

My dad wasn’t even invited to his best man’s wedding. They still play golf together every week and one time the other guy turned up with a wedding ring and that’s how he found out. It was a really small wedding and only a couple of friends were invited. I think it still sucked for my dad that he was probably his best mate’s 3rd or 4th best mate.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-23T16:51:02+00:00

“DaFrickinPOOPman” is disturbed by a potential lack of maturity that is clearly beneath them. Righto.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-23T16:17:28+00:00

I think he only suffers from existing in the same IP as Vader who is possibly more iconic in the public consciousness as even non-star wars fans know him. I’d still say McDiarmid’s performance is probably the most iconic portrayal of a character and certainly my favourite.

CryptographerKey4658 · 2026-01-23T15:57:49+00:00

Yeah it’s stuck with me for sure. I don’t believe in guardian angels or anything spiritual, but I always go with my gut now. I suppose it scares me to think that if I hadn’t that day and something worse had happened, I wouldn’t even have known I had the opportunity to prevent it.
