People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

A password is something we send via email when someone else wants access to the admin account.
Rookie mistake. The password is what we write on a sticky note and tape to the edge of our screen.
Birthright membership in the Domain Admins group is what keeps all our users from being pestered when they want to install that neat new tool they found. Then you don't need to harden the built in admin account against attacks, you can just disable it!
Hilariously if this is internal only, it may be "secure in transit" as most mail doesnt flow over SMTP in that case. Some vendors, including m365, also encrypt mail by default between other m365 users, and I think all of gmail last I checked.
If that password isn't then deleted from email or is otherwise archived automatically, then you have problems.
Cc: all@verysecurecorporation.com so we don't have to keep sending it whenever somebody asks.
