| Apr 2, 2015 at 23:42 | comment | added | MonkeyZeus | I personally applaud them. I have been trying for years to figure out how to write a space character at the front/end of my password on the sticky note under my keyboard. Please don't ruin this for me. I'm calling Google as I type this comment and will tell them to not listen to this post. | |
