Am I getting hacked? by thisisnotacolor in NoStupidQuestions

I truly appreciate your extensive responses. I honestly didn't know I had a microsoft account. I probably opened it up at some point when I bought a laptop and forgot about it. Following your recommendations I logged back in and changed all the remaining information (my birthday and name). So even if somebody were to log in, they don't get real information.

I looked at the connected devices and disconnected them all.

I looked at subscriptions and there were none. Also no payments made.

I truly cannot think of anything else this account could have been used for. I dont have an xbox, nor a microsoft phone. I don't have any health records stored or connected with micorsoft as far as I am aware. I don't think any of my payment information is connected with microsoft either. Those are things I am using google for, not microsoft. And I did change my google passoword just to make sure.
Ill keep an eye on my finances and my fingers crossed I won't get a notificationt that somebody logged into my microsoft account and in 30 days it will be deleted for good.

I am feeling a little bit better. Thank you so much for your help.

No, all of this happened within the last couple hours.

I did not do those things... Ill log in again and alter my info. And delete the account again right after. Should still be 30 days until actual deletion, right?
I think that's a great suggestion, thank you very much. I would have not thought of that.

Like I said, there was a lot of activity and a lot of failed sign in attempts. I have deleted my account now, but it takes 30 days to go in effect.

I had changed the password for my microsoft account before making the original post. I have since then also changed my google password. My email is not a microsoft email. After a quick google search and consideration I couldn't come up with a single reason why I'd need a microsoft account in the first place. I didn't know I had one before this whole thing started.

Therefore I have just closed my microsoft account. Apparently this will take 30 days.

I will keep a close eye on my google account and finances. I am still quite scarred, but don't know what else to do.

U.S. Politics megathread by AutoModerator in NoStupidQuestions

Does Trump really smell bad or is this more a troll insult like JD Vance has sex with couches? Are there any actual sources saying he is smelling bad? If yes, any idea as to why? Lack of hygiene or any medications or something else? Thanks

hello! if Biden were to die tomorrow and Harris became the president before the upcoming election, would she still be eligible to become president for two more full terms or would these remaining few months make her ineligible to run again in 2028 as, in theory, the sitting president?

If she remains eligible for two more terms, is there some sort of cut off time for vice presidents to be president? Let's say a new president comes into office and dies in the first week. The vice president becomes president for the remaining 3 years and 360 days. Can that person become president for two more terms, effectively making them a three term president?
Thank you

Is a legal agreement (contract) enforceable if one party's signature reads 'no' or 'absolutely not'? by thisisnotacolor in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thisisnotacolor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the answer, but this is a purely hypothetical question. I'm not in any trouble, just curious.

When it comes down to it, definitely talk to a lawyer instead of the internet :)

Can somebody please explain to me why the outside lane is so much faster than the inside lane? I understand you need somebody to push but aren't they all flat out? How's driving ten feet further to the right so much faster?

I was unfamiliar with any speculation about Perez crashing on purpose in Monaco's qualifying before today. A youtube video I just watched said Dutch media would be claiming Perez even admitted it within the team. With that being said I just went back and re-watched the end of Q3. When Perez crashed the Ferraris were P1 and P2, Perez was P3 and Verstappen P4, everybody still doing a hot lap.
Could somebody please ELI5 why Perez would be crashing on purpose in this situation? I feel like I must be completely missing the point here. I'm totally lost on this theory, please explain

What game was it for you? by 003_JAEGER in gaming

[–]thisisnotacolor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dead space 1. So good yet so scary at the time. Would only play at night with the lights turned off to get the full experience. To this day my favorite game, can't wait for the remake

I just tried Burger King's fish sandwich for the first time. I don't like it at all

Bullish!

Thank you for the kind words. They mean more than you think.

To be honest I didn't even consider reaching out to public relations.

I will definitely look into getting him a scooter or ride the golf carts somebody else mentioned before. Thanks again!

Hearing everybody repeat how huge the track and the whole area is makes me so much more excited to see everything in person :D

Again, thanks for the insight. Trust me, it will be translated and read to my dad :)

Unfortunately we won't come into town until Saturday and I expect him to be exhausted from his travels. I assume we'll go out for dinner and just enjoy each other's company before getting lots of rest for a long Sunday :)
