If you disable pasting in your password field, I hate you. I hate you even more if you don't have a "show password" button so I can verify that I'm typing my password correctly since you won't let me paste

@brainblasted the one silver lining of everything being a website nowadays is that you can potentially fix someone's intentionally broken password field

@ben @brainblasted this is relevant to my interests. How might I be able to do that?
I decided to wait and let the doctor read me my lab results because the lab test website — in advance of my next dr’s appointment — wouldn’t let me paste a password when I tried to create an account there

@CheapPontoon @brainblasted if you can find the password input field in the developer console, you can manipulate it directly
- Ctrl+Shift+i to open the developer console in most browsers. If the website tries to stop you, you can do it in the address bar so it doesn't have a chance to intercept.
- Go to the first tab (the one that has a bunch of lines of text starting with
<) and find the password input. There's a button in every browser's developer tools to pick an element using your mouse, which can help on pages with complicated markup. - If there's not a text box at the bottom of the developer tools, hit the ESC key once to bring it up.
- With the
<input type="password"element still selected, type$0.valuein the text box and press enter to see what password is in the box. - You can also type
$0.value = prompt()to get a text box controlled by your browser that you can paste the password into

@CheapPontoon @brainblasted in some cases you might need to actually type something into the password field in order to make it activate, but you can just add any letter at the end of your password and then delete it

Me: I'm being responsible. I use a password manager and unique, stupidly complex passwords.
Website: Haha! Fuck you.

@brainblasted there's a special place in hell, right after people that don't let you type out a date but force a date picker at you
