I picked up Elden Ring over a year ago and had started it. It was really difficult going around the world and I felt like I wasn't enjoying it as much as I could because of its difficulty. This was my first experience with a "Souls" game.

I played a bit of Demon's Souls over the holidays last year on ps3 because I had it on ps+ and was curious. I liked it and it helped me force myself to keep at it with some enemies, as it's more linear.

That gave me the push to try Elden Ring once more and it then "clicked" and I just kept at it and now I'm having way more fun. I'm going back everywhere because I know I skipped difficult bosses or parts of the game.

I found out that I had skipped over a whole area and went to an even more difficult one, so I was getting a harder game than I should have. Upon going to the now easier map section (and with an upgraded character), I breezed through a huge section.

If you haven't heard of it, I recommend ๐Ÿ˜…

Search "what is my ip" on your web search engine to see without and with a VPN connection, to see if you're really going through the VPN tunnel. Seems like you aren't.

Video games, because it's easier to do it legally. If it was as easy for other media, I would do it that way.

That would be because the pattern on the first password are correctly spelled words and the way passwords are cracked offline (when there's a leak of data being sold somewhere) is that they use dictionary attacks.

This means that a big file containing all known words, and can also include known used passwords from past leaks, is used to try a lot of combinations. A combination of good words that appear 1:1 in these word lists will score way lower in terms of difficulty for a computer to crack. A simple script can add spaces and periods (like your example) between words and they WOULD get your password. By adding only one random character that doesn't fit a pattern (just like your second 't'), you basically force the cracker to try all possible combinations of all characters for the length of your password, which is WAY more difficult.

TLDR: There are more combinations of aaaaaaa, aaaaaab, aaaaaac then there are of matching words together for the same length of password (one.one, one.two, one.three)

I don't understand how people can go to music shows without ear plugs. I don't even attend metal music, which seem to crank it up to the point of losing sound quality, just for the sake of "bad assery" I guess.

I feel bad for kids being brought to concerts without them, too.

Let's ban one app instead of making laws that govern personal data for everyone.

The quality of life that came with a regular schedule (having all weekends off!) and the higher salary is immeasurable. I am not stressed about money anymore and I have time to do activities with friends and family.

I use one called "I don't care about cookies", seems to work well.

Alright, we get it. Xbox games are coming to ps5. We don't need every single xbox game to have its own article.

I've just finished reading "Black Swan Green" : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14316

I liked it a lot, it reminded me a lot of "The Catcher in the Rye", in the style of writing and the narration.

I started "My Year of Rest and Relaxation" yesterday, pretty good as of yet: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44279110
