how much do you trust a bank to properly invalidate it

i mean i guess the expiration date should do that, but are you sure

so try to use it to log in and see if it still works? seems pretty easy to test

i still wouldn't trust it then because i'm sure my bank has some app or something that may or may not use the same login code

anyway my suggestion is to just get a pair of pliers and snap the thing in half before throwing it away

looking at it again it actually expires at the end of the month. the replacement works so I'm going to throw it in a drawer and forget about it and presumably find it a decade from now with the battery thoroughly drained

even if you throw it out someone would still have to identify that it was yours, that it was to a specific account you have, and also have your username and password. unless you have a spook on your rear end i do not think a single person on god's green earth will ever care

I wish you were as accurate, & as much to be relied on, as I am myself.

You might often save me much trouble, if you were; whereas you in reality add to my trouble not infrequently; and there is at any rate always the anxiety of doubting if you will not get me into a scrape; even when you don't.

By the way, I hope you do not take upon yourself to alter my corrections.

I must beg you not. They all have some very sufficient reason. And you have made a pretty mess & confusion in one or two places (which I will show you sometime), where you have ventured in my M .S .'s, to insert or alter a phrase or word; & have utterly muddled the sense.

I could not conceive at first in one or two places what had happened to my sentences; tho' I soon saw they were patchwork & not my own; and found it so on referring to the M . S. I fear you will think this is a very cross letter.

Never mind. I am a good little thing, after all.

Correct, it has in fact happened since the second programmer came into existence.

Beginning in late November 2023, the threat actor used a password spray attack to compromise a legacy non-production test tenant account and gain a foothold, and then used the account’s permissions to access a very small percentage of Microsoft corporate email accounts, including members of our senior leadership team and employees in our cybersecurity, legal, and other functions, and exfiltrated some emails and attached documents.

quite a pivot from a “legacy non-production test tenant account”

i like how the new SEC cybersecurity disclosure rules require that material cybersecurity breaches must be disclosed within four business days of the determination of materiality

they detected it last friday and disclosed it this friday so they were probably thinking real hard over the weekend about whether to call it material on monday

after this I believe we actually switched to an in-house Android image for them so that we could manage them ourselves, because the vendor software was poo poo

similarly with the video conferencing gear in 2013/2014, Cisco’s management suite fell over at the scale of our deployment and devices were getting stuck in update loops. I think we had to stay on Cisco’s firmware for the devices, but we built our own management and deployment system

(we being the company I was at, not the team I was on)

presumably they've stopped installing apache tomcat and the entire jdk with their printer drivers, but who knows.
