“Secret”, “Password” or “MAGA” probably.

That’s easy. It was surely “KA$H”. Four characters, including a special character. That’s secure, right?

14 month old article but nothing changes a whole lot for the Republicants as they charge rearward for 1955, or 1855.🤬

Another week with the Dow shitting the bed. It has now lost over 6 months worth of gains. Two hours ago Trump “truths”:

Can’t wait for his big speech on economics!

The stock market is Trump’s _only_ guage of the national economic situation. Because he’s an idiot.  
So here come some Orwellian level lies.

And it’s all someone else’s fault. He’s an idiot and a bully.

Remember when Pam Bondi said we shouldn’t be talking about Epstein because the Dow hit 50,000? Now that it’s about to plunge below 45,000, it seems this would be an ideal time to talk about Epstein!

I think the Republican view of Epstein talk is that it has to wait until the Dow falls under 18  
thousand.

50,000 _dollars_, that bit of stupidity should never be left out.

> During these episodes, the current and former officials said they saw Lyons break out into a full sweat, with his face turning deep red. They also attributed the source of the pressure to ramp up deportations to the White House and top adviser Stephen Miller, who yelled at Lyons during morning phone calls with administration officials, according to four people who were on the calls…

Gee, if the job is too stressful maybe you ought to quit. Or maybe it would help if you got up on your hind legs and yelled back.

In February (I think) 2925, I moved my 401k investments to cash. (I did keep like 1% in stocks, so I was buying stocks until I was made redundant earlier this month.) The market was about 45,000 then. I could have made more money if I had stuck it out until the market hit 50,000 (coincidental with my termination), but I like the security of not being liable to a total crash.

Since most passwords have to be at least 8 characters, if you could somehow get that accepted it would actually be fairly secure since a cracking program would never try it.

Needs a number too. Well, working for small county government I needed one. And the freaking thing had to be 12 chars long, and changed every 6 weeks.

I had a pretty good system to remember the thing.
