I imagine Nick's favorite food was "sausage"?
Admin
Perhaps "spotted dick"...

Didn't Netflix actually have a "test" movie that you could use to confirm your connection was working at one point? I seem to recall that.

On the USPS item, that's probably not an error. I worked with a guy that when faced w/ these "Q&A" forms of account recovery would intentionally put (we'll say) 'brisk' answers. The idea was that it would protect against 'shoulder surfer' attacks. A phone call would go like this.
Agent: "Who was your first grade teacher?" Coworker: "I'm not telling you my f'ing password." Agent: uhh... yeah, that's right.... "What was the name of your first dog?" Coworker: "I said quit propositioning me for sex."

"What are you wearing?" "None of your business!" I'm tempted to use that some day.

Remember the part where "secret question" is an awful security practice, thanks to people sharing so much on social media, and more generally many of the questions being easy enough to guess or find out for targeted attacks against high profile targets?

I'd report the phone booth is in pain, but somehow I suspect the service technician would just dim the sign.

Butter?
molasses?
Scunthorpe tea cakes?
Admin
The other thought about the insecurity questions is that I have to fill out so many, that I will generally only remember the truth, the same truth my ex-wife also knows. At this point, I really do not want her having access to my on-line accounts.

The real WTF is a USB sticking showing a "Made in USA"

That DB2 history figure is easy to understand.
Your see the clocks, they indicate time pressure.
Below it, there is a bumble bee working on a yellow Asteraceae flower.
Next to it, you see someone holding a coffee mug. With this context, you should know that it is filled with a calming chamomile tea.
That's what you urgenzly need when working with DB2.

maybe the phone is french and it just needs bread
Admin
As phones do.
Maybe it's part of a scrolling display? But what would the original be? "Painless number porting" or something? Or potentially something in German, Afrikaans, or Oshiwambo?

very nice
Addendum 2023-01-19 10:50: I can tell you how you can now easily find information on how to hack the discord server. I really needed it but couldn't find a list of methods to do it. But here CellTrackingApps and you can explore the details on this topic. If you dare to hack such servers, it is better to know all the ways and methods to do it. I hope I was able to help and it was really useful for you.

this is insane
Addendum 2024-07-23 00:56: That's an interesting approach to account security! Using unconventional answers to security questions can indeed help protect against 'shoulder surfer' attacks and other forms of social engineering. It’s a creative way to add an extra layer of security, although it might also lead to some confusing interactions with customer service agents, as you’ve described. If you’re concerned about the security of your accounts or want to explore additional measures to protect your online information, consider checking out buy social media accounts . They offer accounts and tools that can enhance your security and streamline your management of various online platforms. With their help, you can ensure your accounts are secure and well-managed, providing peace of mind beyond just creative answers to security questions
