@patrickcmiller Well then, why aren’t you deploying modern MFA? The incremental cost is negligible vs the risk…

@lanodan “puts on grumpy old man hat”: HTML in email was a bad idea. HTML *forms* in email is an atrocity.

1. SuperSpeed USB Cable Near the center, the cable has thick red A top-of-the-line 10 Gbps SuperSpeed USB cable is a tiny, precisely con- structed, dazzling work of art. Most remarkable are the eight minia- ture shielded coaxial cables, each just 1 mm in diameter, with its own color- coded foil wrap. Each pair of two coax cables forms a high-speed data trans- mission lane. With four lanes total, the USB cable can move data up to 10 gigabits per second. and black wires for powering devices, and a shielded green and white signal pair. In a sense, these form a low-end basic USB cable embedded within the high-end SuperSpeed cable for back- ward compatibility. Four smaller wires near the outer shield carry auxiliary signals. The whole cable is wrapped with an outer braided copper shield for improved immunity to electri- cal interference.
