That is good, I guess, but did you also give them your phone number just now?

As convoluted as it is, the Social Security Admin requires about 2 weeks to set up 2FA as they do part of it through the mail, so someone trying to take over my SSA account has to do the online thing and steal my postal mail, which isn’t…

I haven’t tried because the IRS doesn’t owe me money right now, but I am sure by “secure” they mean this will be a pain to access, and will not have any real 2 factor authentication or identity verification mechanisms.

The IRS: Programming Internet Servers Like It Was 1992.

Agreed. It probably took them longer to program the computers to disable access outside of these hours vs just making it work.

I think I can adequately summarize your position with the following phrase that, until now, I thought had not purpose.

It does look good, but it is a Buick. It will take a long time to get over its stodgy image. Probably longer than I have left to live.

It blows my mind anyone would let their phone out of their site like that. I’d have had that sales manager get off of his fat butt and come down and look at my phone’s screen with the approval on it.

They should be allowed to drive of course, as long as they wear their hajib. Or else its OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!

That way I only get posts from the people I actually follow, not from everyone the people I follow follow.

Nope. No bias here. How about we keep this crap to Jezebel?

Great list, but I’ll rely on a mechanic for some of this. Most/All of that “Engine, Advanced” section.

I have nothing but the utmost respect for Dean Karnazes and his capabilities, but he is full of it sometimes. I cannot recall if it was in Runner’s World, Trail Runner, or some other publication but he said something to the effect that he was nothing special but just decided to run.

His first run was 15 miles! I call…

Thank you. Added to my list of great Dad Jokes.

I rarely use the Mac App Store, which is unfortunate because I love the iOS app store. But to me, both the Mac app store and the Windows 10 app store are so full of junk apps, I’d rather find an app via google than in their store fronts.

True Fact: Of those that pay cash for cars they can afford, exactly 0.000% are underwater.

I cannot recommend this course strongly enough. I actually took the one Harley calls “Riders Edge” but it was certified by the MSF and really the same basic course.

Best tip I ever got in that course is “Look where you want to go, not at what you want to avoid.”

We are a coal roller. AKA VW TDi.

I’m positive the Prius sucks as a car and seems to suck the common sense out of the driver while in operation.

I assume I am getting nothing from SSA in my retirement planning. Then, if I do, it is gravy.

While there, set up 2 factor authentication (texts only unfortunately, but better than nothing). The downside to the site is you have to change your password every 6 months, and since most people go here ever year or so, that means every time you log in.

Except instead of humming, Damon will be whistling.
