But why put curd in cookies?

Curd (called "tvaroh" in czech, never "sýr", which is our word for cheese) can be used in sweet baked goods. I woudn't expect cookies in particular, but my granma used to make very good baked dumplings filled with curd.

There's... apparently multiple types of curd (cheese, fruit, probably others i'unno i stopped caring pretty rapidly), so it's possible there's some confusion going on on that front. Probably, really, because from what I've seen usage of the terms involved are overlapping for separate things and not used consistently to boot.

Cheese curd specifically can apparently be subbed in for cream or cottage cheese, which yeah, can be used in baking sweet things.

... that picture looks more or less like cottage cheese, to me, which the idle checking suggests you want to sieve before use if you want it to taste particularly good in sweet things. It's possible that was the problem, I'unno.

Found a password generator with password security "tips" underneath, some of the "tips" are useless for security, and some are flat out nonsense trash.

In what nonsense world is "Gbt3fC79ZmMEFUFJ" a weak password.

S'just alphanumeric, no other symbols, length's not particularly notable. It wouldn't be particularly difficult for something to brute force it, basically, so it's weak. Pretty sure that's most or all of the reasoning, anyway.

They don't. They write them down, which is itself a security flaw. :p

S'just alphanumeric, no other symbols, length's not particularly notable. It wouldn't be particularly difficult for something to brute force it, basically, so it's weak. Pretty sure that's most or all of the reasoning, anyway.
Except the program to do the brute-forcing doesn't know it is just alphanumeric.

And even if it did, that's 16 characters. With alphanumeric only, that is 62^16 options for just this length. And it will have to try every length before that as well (though 15 long password has 62 times fewer options than it, and so on, so the current matters the most).

62^16=4.77E28
How many querries can a brute-force program put in per second? 10? 100?
Even with 1000 attempts/second, that is going to take up to 4.77E26 seconds, or 1.51E21 years to brute-force "Gbt3fC79zmMEFUFJ".


But really, you should not make your passwords a random mess of characters. And if you do, and have to write them down, do it in a way that can't be easily found out. You should especially not trust online services to remember them for you.

What you should use as passwords is long strings of lexikon words, arranged into easy to remember sentences. Easy to remember, hard to guess. Especially if you sprinkle it randomly with leet-speech.

It is still easier to remember that then a random mess of characters.

enh

any password that is important enough to 'secure' I change often enough.  And honestly 2FA is actually mandatory on several accounts that deal with money.  I cant turn that stuff off if I wanted to.

Most passwords I have are variations of a couple of the same ones, and with browsers offering to remember them I bet its a lot like caller id.  Do you remember your parents new cell phone number?  Your kids/wife/husbands?  I bet not.

I actually avoid making entries for my family members so that I remember their numbers, so I can call them on someone else's phone. Hasn't paid off yet, but feels clever.

Yesterday when I opened my iphone , what caught my eyes are dozens of negative news , such as the death of the former prime minister of the state council , the military conflicts between the Israel and the pakistan and the military conflicts in the Myanmar .etc

It makes me feel that the Doomsday would come or the WWIII will break out , which makes me feel very "WTF "

In China some conspiracy theories are also spreading , for Mr . Li Keqiang is a well-rounded officer with good abilities ,someone supposed that his death is related to the jealousy of someone ,You-know-who .
