    for majority of people it is more secure than using their own computer, because their computer is not very secure in the first place

    and your own computer could catch fire. anyway, google will inform you in advance and you will migrate your gitlab vm somewhere

      all this is irrelevant, since subj uses vm hosting

        I do not even watch TV, but my father fought in WWII and I have studied that conflict extensively. I know a fascist or a Nazi when I see one, and Trump is both. The broader "fascist" term can apply to a hell of a lot of politicians in all major parties, as both parties support police shooting people down in the street for the color of their skin, and both are corporatist. Mussolini said "fascism should really be called corporatism" and by that he meant the root of it was in the mergers of corporations by industry and union of corporation and state. I've seen a hell of a lot of that in my lifetime, and if Mussolini calls something fascist, that's exactly what it is because he defined the term. In other words, much code in the functions "democrat" and "republican" is defined in "fascism.h" where it was first written,

          If you think corporatism is evil, why are you supporting the massive megacorps that control our media, poison our food, and do their damnedest to control our lives by parroting their lies and dogma? Seems to me you should be looking past their propaganda and realizing that their deathly enemies (Trump, the Pauls, Sanders) are your friends. Maybe not perfect but on the side of the people. Instead you're just another corporate drone parroting false garbage.

          Sorry but Trump is neither a fascist nor a nazi, he's a populist that pulls most of his platform from the Reform Party. Populism is in fact in direct opposition to fascism and nazism because it means focusing on the will of the people (for good and bad) rather than your own will or the bribes of the corporations and oligarchs. He's not perfect by far, done plenty of shitty things, but the next Hitler he is not.

            That just makes your password secure during the online phase and in the case where you are 100% sure that you are talking to the correct server, if some one might spoof you into trying to logon to a rouge server or the gitlab database gets hacked you are SOL with a password while with a ssh key it's just smooth sailing.

            And testing 1000 passwords per second? That wasn't even slow 20 years ago

              Trump is pretty much the epitomy of narcissistic personality disorder. He definitely exudes many of the qualities of a fascist, but I think it's a mistake to think he stands for that or anything else - it really is all about himself. And he's not a nazi. He's friendly with them as long as they vote for him, but I don't think that's really his personal opinions - he's just happy to use them against his personal enemies since he really doesn't care about that stuff one way or the other.

              To be fair, it's probably not possible for anyone to become president of the US without having a massive ego. Trump is just next-level when it comes to that stuff.

              Oh, and if you think Trump is anti-corporatism, then why is the biggest accomplishment of his tenure so far a massive tax cut for corporations? That, and i guess a supreme court pick.... Trump is not anti-corporate, any more that he's anti-spying or whatever else was said above. He's perfectly fine with all that.

                Trump IS a corporatist every bit as much as Hillery Clinton, as shown by his wholesale scrapping of any limitations on corporate abuses. Latest example is his taking the brakes off for-profit colleges that encourage student lending for tens of thousands of dollars, only to go out of business or leave students with degrees that turn out to be worthless. Trump is also a racist, and as I am part Native American that is a total and complete blocking concern. No how no way I can ever tolerate a white supremacist in the White House. He is also in favor of taking the brakes off almost all law enforcement: he hates Black Lives Matter and supports killer cops. He let CBP and ICE separate familes. OK, he is a corporatist, a racist, and a police state supporter, and that makes him a fascist in every way. He also pals around with out-and-out Nazis and white nationalists like Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller. That makes him a Nazi too given his existing commitment to Fascism. Even if he is a totally empty vessel himself, fascism is what he brought to the party. Trump might be like a variable that is NULL or empty when declared, but later initialized by the hard-right.Not really NULL when declared either, as he had a reputation as a racist in his landlord days too.

                As for his ties to populism, let's break down the origin of the word Nazi. It refers orignally to the "Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" in German or "National Socialist German Workers Party" in English or Nazis for short. Hitler's association with them began when they were the German Worker's Party, against which he was orignally a police informant. The German Worker's Party stated as a tiny socialist group right after the time the Kaiser was overthrown in what began as a sailor's revolt at the end of WWI. Fascism too was a nationalized and mono-ethnic offshoot of socialism. Socialist words were offered to the masses, while promises of subsidies and tax cuts whispered into the ears of major industrialists. In other words, talk like Bernie Sanders but act like Rockerfeller or Henry Ford. Sound familiar?
