  • I’m gonna be honest dude. The “shorts is just over-sexualised jailbait” is a you issue, and more of a self report on the shit you watch, or you being hyperbolic. I often watch shorts and have not once ever seen anything remotely as you describe.

    You get served kid videos because you watch them, which is sick of you. It’s wild you’d admit that when common knowledge is algos show you content you seem to like.











  • The databases aren’t encrypted exactly…

    The DB don’t even store passwords, but a hash of a user’s password. When someone logs in, their password is hashed and compared to what’s stored in the DB. If they match, entry is granted.

    Passwords stored as one-way hashes are cracked by generating passwords and running them against the same hash algorithm, like sha256, sha-1 or md5 if you’re especially shitty at protecting information. Same hash = same password in most cases. The cracking is done using GPUs because they accelerate at those types of functions. This doesn’t even consider salted hashes which make the process more difficult for an attacker.

    You do this locally so that you don’t lock a username out or trip alerts or become noticed by someone until you’re ready to gain access.



  • Ah, fair enough, thank you.

    I personally dont think we’re close to fox total domestication however. It seems like we’ve selective breed a human friendly temperament but there’s more to it than that for the sake of pet-ness that I’m sure people like to have. That is the main point in my OP. They love to mark, burrow into furniture and cause other problems. Those issues I think will be harder to alter than temperament. Probably not in my lifetime or most of ours in my opinion.

    Fox’s aren’t going to be domesticated.

    Foxes dont follow a hierarchical system like dogs, cats or horses where there is an Alpha (the owner of the animal) whom they fall under in the pecking order.

    Foxes like to shit and piss all over everything and burrow Into couches. Good luck with the fox thing.
