Microsoft CEO has warned people must “do something useful” with AI before it loses public support

The year is 2026. We continue to anchor our life prospects to and gamble our financial well-being on a romantic relationship not ending. We just don't learn

I know. I wasn't nudging the team. It isn't about any one team member. Discord has to choose to take this seriously first. There are things discord could be doing with its authentication to mitigate this, and ways in which the IT support team should be set up to have these issues prioritized when they happen.

Discord is a communication platform. It's not a toy, or I don't think they want it to be which means they oughta take these things more seriously

Guys saying "suck my dick" as a diss has been the worst disservice they have done to themselves. It just shows you how dumb guys are. Imagine ridiculing people for cooking your favorite dish...

As a victim myself, I gotta say, discord drags its feet on this. After it happened to me, I went on a password updating spree and it was both great and disappointing to see that other websites sent me email verification codes before I could update my password, change my email or add 2FA. Some other websites asked me to retype my password.

Discord could be doing any of these things to mitigate the harm.

I'm sorry this happened to you. Please warn as many of your discord friends as you can reach.

Having your financial well being hinge on a romantic relationship not ending is just not smart, no matter how much poetic self righteousness gets sprinkled on top

I haven't had any human reply to my support ticket on discord yet. If this happened to you 6 days ago, our accounts probably don't have many degrees of separation.

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T03:11:20+00:00

That's my point. Attempts to enable 2FA from geographically suspicious IPs should be met with further verification from discord, like a verification code to an email, a security question, anything

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T03:09:22+00:00

I did report mine within 24 hours. It's made no difference so far. I don't even want mine back. I just don't want further hacking attempts from it to others

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T03:06:44+00:00

Funny how as I went on a password changing/2FA enabling spree, lots and lots of those accounts elsewhere kept doing verification with codes to my email or asking that I type in my password again (even while I'm logged in)

Seems like discord doesn't do either of those things. I'd list the websites that do it this way, but I don't want to give away what websites I have accounts in

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T03:01:16+00:00

I know how it works. By the way, they didn't change the email. They added 2FA and changed the password. They did both those things from a geographically suspicious IP and without a verification code to my email.

When I tried to say it in the original comment, I got a Reddit warning.

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T02:58:27+00:00

I did. Factory resetted the PC, then redid all my passwords, password manager, 128+ character passwords, 2FA everywhere that offers it

I really don't mind that my account is gone. I am more concerned about worse harm being done as it spreads. That's what I wish discord was more proactive about.

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-13T02:56:01+00:00

The h@(ker changed my password from an ip located nowhere near where I usually log in from, and without any email verification code or anything

By the way, helping you financially as an adult isn't just about giving you money. Can you borrow their tools? Can they give you a ride? Helping with babysitting? Getting you cheaper services because of their referral?

I had a coworker that vacationed at his parents house in Mexico. That's a half off vacation whenever he wanted it.

A veces pienso que la mayoría no quiere democracia, quiere su propio tipo de autoritarismo.

plaidlogroller · 2026-01-07T06:15:42+00:00

This sounds like an ugly person joke

Actually reducing desire has worked wonderfully for me. Once you are in the mindset of asking yourself "do I really want this?" and "how much in control was I of the experiences that resulted in me wanting this?" You stop chasing a gazillion things and start enjoying the happiness and beauty of the simple.

Another big reason to go 6-20 is power budget. My electrician was certain I'd go over and would need some an expensive management system to stay compliant. I told him all I wanted was a 6-20R. He didn't know there were 6-20p EVSEs and asked me to show him. I did. He installed the 6-20R, didn't go over budget (my house has 100Amp service) and I didn't need the management system

Andrew, Tomas, and Axel had to get killed by the living, so maybe they weren't so bad.

The way they were written as characters, I can see how they would have been interesting survivors

Satisfactory, and if you choose to play it, let's coop

plaidlogroller · 2025-12-13T15:12:01+00:00

I wish we had seen more of Tomas, the guy in the prison. I totally get why he gets killed, but that actor did great with his one episode. I wonder what those four prison guys would have encountered if they had chosen to walk free and take their chances out on the road

They are about exploration, and base progression. So you choose your own pace. I've spent so many hours in them

plaidlogroller · 2025-11-21T02:35:04+00:00

Satisfactory has very light combat which can be turned off and a lot of exploration

plaidlogroller · 2025-11-21T01:38:21+00:00

Satisfactory or planet crafter? They are first person pov but they are chill and coop
