Dog Pompadour

The missed opportunity would have been a Pomeranian Pompadour.

I see the business in the front, but where's the party in the back?

þ

It lived, thrived and spread, then slowly was killed off until its only refuge is a small island buried in tradition.

yeah I kinda miss him NGL I hate how much hate he got

I'm not one of those bringbackthorn people (imo if there's ever gonna be a spelling reform it should focus more on consistent spelling) but I don't mind people who use it

I tried using my own name and it said my password was too weak. So I start my Planet Fitness membership tonight.

Just use #.

It was just an obscure character, toiling in the sidelines. Then Twitter happened.

That's why my password contains 63, the product of 9 and 7. 9 was tragically killed and eaten by 7, right in front of poor 63 and others. Now 63's drive to prevent future tragedy is turned up to the nines.

Does V from Cyberpunk not have a tragic backstory?

Tudsamfa@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 17d (2 replies)

Do you know why 6 is afraid of 7?

calmblue75@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 17d (1 reply)

Because 7 is bigger and 6 might lose against it?

::: spoiler Title I tried to think of something other than the usual 789 :::

wieson@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 16d

Why would 7, the bigger of the numbers, not simply eat the smaller ones?

.... can you do zalgo text / diacritic fuckery with a password?

Does your enterprise auth system and database support correctly storing zalgo text, lol?

Either that or my password just is an escaped SQL injection string.

Didn't say who had to be the one with the tragic backstory.

coffee_tacos@mander.xyz · 2 pts · 16d (1 reply)

The database shouldn't have any issues, since it will be getting a salted hash (one would hope). Usually there are safeguards on the auth system blocking that kind of stuff so that people don't create passwords they can't type. However, it would be technically feasible to allow those characters in a password.

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 16d

Yes, one would hope, lol.

I've been in charge of my own db and auth systems.

I had to turn the previous uh, 'hope', into code.

For a pretty large organization, hahahaha!
