Two-factor authentication is a really important tool to protect your account. No other social media site or really any site I can think of has ever paywalled two-factor authentication. Or at least, it would be rare as hell.

Yeah there is no service I can think of that you have to pay for to specifically get 2FA. They're basically saying they want the majority of their users to get hacked. It's an absolutely hilarious/shitty business decision.

5oz of Bailey's is way more alcohol than drunk you thinks it is.

fenikz · 03-18-2023, 04:46 AM

ya that does seem like a lot of baileys

Dragon · 03-18-2023, 04:52 AM

That's a lot of sugar.

I thought this all my life, and then I found Conamarra. Which is basically just an Irish scotch. I'd say it compares to a Cambletown like Springbank, which has doubled in price and impossible to find.

Irish whiskey > American whiskey

Irish
Japanese
American Rye
Scotch
Bourbon

Depends on my mood, but I do quite like Irish whisky if I’m after something easy drinking. One of Redbreast or Greenspot will always have a spot on the bar.

iowatreat · 03-18-2023, 06:07 PM

Redbreast is definitely my favorite. Their Kentucky Oak edition is phenomenal, but incredibly hard to find (at least in the Midwest).

Prock · 03-18-2023, 06:36 PM

Irish whiskey is quite good but I'm a rye or bourbon guy. I've only had Japanese whiskey a few times so can't properly rate it. I love a good scotch but it's more of a fun changeup than a staple for me.

Fernando · 03-20-2023, 02:20 PM

Good scotch tastes like coal and heartburn. Rye and Bourbon are significantly better and are so easy to drink.

nepg · 03-20-2023, 03:21 PM

Scotch takes more work to really enjoy. The prices are also absolutely insane over the last few years. Balvine Caribbean Cask is the easiest gateway single malt scotch. Circle makes some great blends.

Irish Whiskey is trash when it isn't trying to be a different whiskey. At least it isn't Canadian.

Bourbon and Rye are the most versatile. Japanese whiskey is just more meticulously crafted bourbon and rye.

p2w · 03-20-2023, 03:43 PM

Scotch and Japanese are my personal favorites, but all of them have good and bad. As a fan of Japanese whiskey I want to try more Taiwanese whiskey, which is well regarded. I've even had a couple English whiskies recently that were very good.

don't know if any of you are responsible for hiring recent grads, but good luck in about 5 years and on through the mid 2030s because these kids are going to be worthless as adults.

Sounds like job security, buddy.
