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.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
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.
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.
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.)
Edit - Youtube is your friend...
There isn't a door, just a slot with felt on top and bottom edges to dust---or guide, or both--the disc as it loads.
Bev, see edit above.
Try turning it off, and then holding down the eject button while powering it on: [link]
That would have been easy and fabulous, DX, but it's a PS 3. Thanks though. I'm going to look around on YT for more suggestions.
Tom, the fan did run very loud, but ultimately the disc still didn't eject. I'll check YT for more ideas, and I'll check here in case anybody has another suggestion.
Thanks for the YT tip--we found several vids, and will go through them until something works!
And...found a vid showing the specific "Speak friend and enter" for our machine. Cover's off, retrieval proceding. Thanks again for the YT reminder! (And no more inserting discs in the dark! This one went in upside down, sheesh.)
Anecdata: after following advice here, a vid was found on You Tube which told us exactly how to get the cover off our particular machine. A side jaunt to the local Radio Shack/Sprint store for a nifty 58-piece set of assorted size hex screwdrivers, pommel-spin screwdrivers, and other miniature arcane tools, in a handy carry case ("Oh, and by the way, Merry Christmas!" since I hadn't thought of the perfect gift yet), duly got the cover completely off and the machine open, to discover the blu-ray disc was not only not upside down, but...TA DAH! in the DVD player.
There's been a bit of facepalming and never-let-you-live-it-downing 'round these parts today. But hey! If disaster strikes again, we know how to crack the case, and we have a whole buncha tools!
