Jesus Christ. Get some perspective. Your likening this matter to what's occurring in NK is akin to someone well off in a first world country complaining about starvation. 

Thinking a bit more technical about it, without these requirements, generally unsafe websites would be even more unsafe.
 
Just in simple terms, without any requirements on passwords, people will just flock to the usual suspect 'bad passwords' (password, password123, 12345, etc.). A bad website would use no further protection on their stored passwords (like salting) and just encrypt them, using a key.
If a hacker got a hold of this database, they can see "oh hey, some encrypted string is pretty common as a password, so that is probably "password123", now we can find the key to this database that way!" and boom, whole database is compromised (of course, having your passwords only simply encrypted, not salted, etc. is very bad, having the database in the wrong hands too, etc.).
 
So by encouraging websites to not have good password requirements, you're indirectly asking for (certain badly protected) websites to be hacked even more easily, including putting customers who do have a proper password at risk.
 
That seems like throwing a lot of people under the bus, just for wanting to use "password123", but oh well.

That's my point Kim Jong-un would say (as people here say you have options it is your decision) that he gives them options, to live in a city or in the village, to go to the mall, to get a computer or to leave Korea if they dont like to !!! See everything is simple it is their decision nobody forces them to suffer like they do! 

Yes, please. 

No, just use a password manager or a password that isn't password123. Problem solved.

I suggest you read accounts of what life is actually like in North Korea from people unfortunate enough to have lived there. "A River in Darkness" by Masaji Ishikawa is a good start. Once you have I doubt you will make such flippant comparisons again.

Just don't use their service if you don't like their requirements. Pretty simple solution. 

People thinking like that could just live in a dictatorship without any issue north Korea would be a nice destination for your next summer vocations 😛 

Sure, and in that case, his rights are not violated. No one is forcing him to use these services. They are not essential to life, therefore he has the option to not use them. They can choose any password requirements that they want, without violation of his "basic freedoms" 

You mean imagine being told to use secure locks as opposed to none because "freedomz"

except the user - like you - will complain to the company once you're 'hacked', meaning the requirements they set for making a password help both you and themselves too, through having less silly customer service tickets.
 
I thought this thread would be the other way around. websites having 'maximum' requirements on passwords.
for example, a website I recently made an account for has a max character limit on passwords of 20. wut?? that's quite short.
that is not even the worst though they also don't allow for many special characters, but do not mention this! they only - on the next step - mention "there is something wrong". I had to find some forum post, where someone mentioned illegal characters in a password.
 
that makes it even worse. first they have a low character limit and then you can't even make your password complicated and are basically restricted to:
- lower case letters
- upper case letters
- numbers
- couple special character (?,!, - and _ if I recall correctly)
 
 

That will stand just as well in court as TOS, AKA: not.
 
Plus, that is ignoring the fact that:
a. people will still complain (and say "nuh-uh, I didn't agree to being allowed to hack!!"
b. it can still ignore the company's reputation ("wow, have you seen how often company X users gets hacked?!")
c. this will give the users a lot more text to read through, which they won't (which is sort of that TOS point)

If you have the correct size bit so there's no slippage, you could always just do it in a way where you can leverage more of your weight and then turn it with the hand being used to do so. Had to do that on my 7950 what seems like an eternity ago and it worked out just fine.

Make sure you're using the right size screwdriver bit so that it's not slipping, then just wrap a towel or microfiber around the screwdriver handle and adjust your grip so you're using your arm to twist instead of your wrist. Could also just ask someone who is stronger than you.
OP said the screws aren't stripped. Why the fuck would they drill them out?

Still a shitty idea. A drill does not have the torque OP seems to need, and it would be a massive pain to keep the bit seated in the screw head and not have the drill strip it.

This is all based on cooling performance BTW, I thought I should just make that clear

you sound like a hedge fund manager.
 
Stocks are a brutal game, if people can't handle "normal people" making more money than hedge funds, then maybe those hedge funds need to bow out.

Okay guys, we all had fun at the WAN Show right now, especially seeing Linus squeal. He thought he'd be in for $10K at most and could ride it out as a meme. $50K is not chump change and who knows if this publicity stunt he just accidentally did couldn't be construed as market manipulation.

I don't think it's funny anymore and I would accept a "OK, I fucked up" from Linus, followed by a more reasonable donation to a charity. I don't want to see LTT or Linus get F-ed by some oversight body he didn't know existed and I would still enjoy his content and believe in his integrity if he bowed out of this mess. There are real jobs, real people, real lives involved and as much as i want to stick it to the big hedgefond guys i don't find it funny to see LTT or Linus get sucked into this.

good. Hopefully this will be a kick in the ass the technology industry needs to see that you CANNOT just keep outsourcing everything FFS. It was one of Intel's saving graces to have their own fabs....but no, they were forced by their stakeholders to move to TSMC as well.

Sadly my kitty passed away a few years ago but near the beginning of the year I got to baby sit a cat and he was the sweetest thing ever, miss him
 

 

 

Here are some cute cats that my girlfriend and I have. Spooky is the black one, Cookie is the other one 🐈 😊
