Strike, and strike again, deep into the heart of Mordor. Ignore the cries of those who only wish to keep their coffers full.

Can someone explain all the of possums these past few days? And, while I’m on the subject…

Car hitting possum memes: No. :(…
Cowboy possum memes: YES! :D

Ye olde shitte transcribers

I have a tall mouth, and I drink tall tea. The cup is the same, though.

I caught a brief glimpse of the second frame, and thought I’d foolishly opened some goatse.

Feels like I got off with a warning, and that it would be wise to slow down a little on these mountain roads.

Just a heads-up, your comment is posted twice.

Not sure if there are any browser dev tools that do what you’re specifically asking. It’s more that you need to know what to look for in the source code, and the tools just aid in finding/editing/testing things. Even if you learn a dozen coding languages, and know what to look for, they may be sending the password as plain text and then doing the dirty work server-side. Maybe they send a single-use key to your browser, hash and send the password with that, then re-hash it on the server, with a private key. There are numerous ways to accomplish the task, and I’m glad I didn’t start any arguments with my simplistic “this is it” statement.

All of that said, I’ve been out of practice for quite a while, and I was never a wizard anyhow. So, maybe someone else can offer a catch-all solution, but I really doubt it. Regardless, being aware and vigilant puts you way ahead of the pack, so nice work there.

This is it.

It seems a lot of people have trouble distinguishing between what’s simply happening in their browser, and what’s being sent back to the server. I mean, I get it; it’s confusing, even to the people creating the tech, let alone a casual netizen. It’s a good question, and you can’t fault anyone for wondering what’s what.

You absolute maniac.
