The think about the Yahoo breech is that it happened 3 years ago, and I've changed my password a few times since then.
I would be there right now.

Didn't Last Pass get breached too?

Yeah, I changed mine last August, when there were rumors of a breach, then again in October, when the smaller breach hit the news, and then again a couple days ago.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to use LastPass. Like, it automatically did.... something... or tried to, at seven websites, one of which I have zero memory of ever having heard of before let alone signing up for (and then there is Linked In which I have heard of but remember deciding not to sign up for), but I can't figure out how to get LastPass to do whatever it is it does with any more websites.

Cue panic attack and suicidal ideation.

I don't like password handling systems, because I don't want to give a service control of my passwords. I may not be the most creative in creating passwords, but they're in my head (and in a subfolder of a gay porn folder that should distract anyone poking around where they shouldn't).

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
You could hide them in a folder named "EULAs". No one would look there.

LastPass got partially breached. The first of five layers of hashed/encyryption was breached for some thousand accounts, LastPass caught it, stopped it, changed things.

That's a bit more reassuring, thanks. I still can't really figure out how to make it work on more than the first seven sites.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Embarrassing question: accidentally put the blu-ray disc in upside down, the Playstation won't eject it. Suggestions?
The manual said 'hold the eject button down ten seconds or longer." The laser spins but doesn't read the back of the disc, doesn't register that there's a disc present, senses nothing to eject. The player menu says, "No programs available," because it's not reading the presence of the disc.
There are no external panels or screws. When the dvd player hung, we were able to remove the door and retrieve the DVD manually. That doesn't appear to be an option here. Any help greatly appreciated.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Is there a little hole just under the door? It should be just big enough to stick a straightened paper clip into. (Although looking at the blu ray drive on my computer, there doesn't seem to be an eject hole on it, unlike every DVD and CD drive I've ever seen.)
