Damn. Hope you don't get too sick. I can't pinpoint anywhere or anyone that would have given it to me - so luckily the list of people I had to give a heads up to was also pretty short.

Had to go for Tamiflu prescription for my f’in flu (been in bed the past 24hrs)….I show up at 1:30 and it is their lunch hour….so have to wait while I’m dying here in the parking lot….lol.
My wife went to the grocery store today. She knew it was going to be a shitshow and it was. The store was at capacity, so they were making people wait outside until people left. So there's a big lineup of people waiting to get in and some woman waltzes up to the door in front of everyone waiting. Store employee at the door tells her she has to wait in line and she rudely tells him "I only need a few things. I'm not going to wait in line!" Karens gonna Karen I guess.
I think a waiting line at a grocery store is a sign that you should probably move. No?
All my splat numbers dried up. Wanted to wish him and Baby a Merry, but alas, aliases and tech gets in the way. Foiled Again!
If you got valid digits for him, pm me so I can punch him in the cunt.

Passwords and two factor authentication. When are we going to implement a less annoying solution?
DNA SAMPLING FOR EVERYTHING!!!!
I like the idea of two factor since it eliminates some kinds of unauthorized access.
When it fails though it can fail spectacularly.
I lost my phone on a bikepacking trip a few years back. We tried using the find my phone feature from a friend's phone. Go to sign in to my google account: "This device is not recognized, need to send a code to your email". Log into my hotmail email to get the code. "This device is not recognized, need to send a code to your backup email." Log into backup email to get that code. "This device is not recognized, need to send code to...." Tried sending the code to my work email. That also did not recognize the device and wanted to send a code to a backup account....which was my google account. A fucking two factor circle jerk. I never did get the phone back.
You set your second factor on all your accounts to a device you own…. And then you lost that thing. Funny, but feels like you didn’t really map that one out in advance.
I don’t really find the 2fa in my life gets in my way all that much.
I feel his pain on that one. 2FA is a good thing, but by definition using "something you have" as a second form of auth has limits. For starters, you're going to want to pick something you always have with you, but then if you lose that thing, you still want a way to recover it.
Google does encourage you to keep a printout of backup codes, but I wish there was also a way to proactively authorize finding (but not necessarily wiping) your device from one or more other devices.

Anyone here get fucked over by the Southwest Airlines debacle?
Fuck SWA. I wrote them off years ago and thankfully their fares never show in my Google Flights search to tempt me.
It's a shame. They used to be pretty great back in their prime in the 90s. They've gone way downhill since. Same for every other airline tho. They're all pretty much just Greyhounds with wings these days.

If I had set them all up to text a code to my phone, then you'd be correct.
But each account was set to send the code to a different email account...that in theory should be accessible from any device. The only account I was aware needed 2fa was my work email. I've accessed the others before from other devices without it.
We got screwed a few years back on a family trip to Colorado. I was going to do the Courage Classic volunteer bike ride which i was really looking forward to since i had never done a major organized ride. My wife and kids were volunteering for work and we were set up in Copper village with free rooms. Brother drove up from Texas with his family and was doing the same.
Apparently there was a reservation snafu mid week and we never heard anything about it until the day before when we went to sign in. Flights were canceled all week and trying to get a flight at that time was impossible so I missed the ride and ended up getting there Sunday on a different airline that needless to say was much more booking so close to departure. They gave us some miles, but we still took a beating not to mention missing the purpose of the trip.
They don't fly out of Newark anymore which kinda sucks because they had cheap direct flights to Denver and Austin where my bro lives and no extra charge for ski bags which was nice.
Thank Dog I don't have any family that requires flagellating myself to visit during the ABSOLUTELY FUCKING WORST TIME OF THE YEAR, by car or plane, because it only takes year off your life span.
It would help if they moved Tgiving and Xmas to spring or fall. (Not summer--T-storms
It would help in mass cancellation events if they prioritzed getting people home, even if it means bumping people outbound from home. Of course they wont do it because if you're stranded you're usually going to wait to get rebooked rather than getting a refund, while if you are canceled when you're home you might just cancel the trip and take the refund. It would help is SWA would book people on other airlines, like the other airlines do.
SWA doesn't have interline agreements so they can't rebook their passengers on other carriers.
They're the Texas power grid of airlines.
people skinning up an open resort. how did this ever become a thing? We have the largest wilderness area in Colorado across the street.
I'm annoyed, my idyllic time at an ecolodge in the mountains/jungle was disrupted by the national govt kidnapping the governor of the department here, and protest rising up in the street. Had to bail on the lodge and drive 3 hours back to the city trying to beat the setting up of road blockades by angry peasants. Clogged up rotaries we're full of honking motorists who obeyed no observable system of merging or traffic rules whatsoever. So i powered through the intersections without letting anyone merge and nearly ran over a dozen pedestrians who were out walking in traffic for some reason.
Super annoying.
