Don’t forget quicksand… I spent all my childhood afraid of falling into it. Somehow it was an unwarranted concern.

It’s a circus out there…

One of my financial institutions supports yubikeys, but does not have the option to turn off sms 2fa. A chain is as strong as the weakest link, as usual.

Another only has sms 2fa and bizarrely allows me to specify any phone number at login time to receive the code. WTF?

Most only have 2fa via sms. When you talk about using an authenticator app people bitch and moan because they have to cut and paste those digits into the login page. Oh, the humanity…

Don’t even get me started on sites with “roll your own” schemes, like forcing you to install their app (which requires all permissions under the sun) just to accept a push message and allow you to login on their website.

Ever noticed that in every movie, when they show scenes of Mexico, the camera white balance is set way too high to produce a very yellow image?

If they really want me to install a heat pump, please go knock some heads at PG&E. 30 cents per KWh makes it really hard.

Uh oh… Looks like someone chose the $5 option…

Well, they’re coming here to cast illegal votes for Crooked Joe Biden /s

It’s all so sad yet they hammer it so hard that even my Trump hating friends believe this caravan bullshit.

The real problem is that these people live in a world of fantasy and prep for the zombie apocalypse. It’s this quasi sexual thing where they get a hard on for shooting everyone that moves, without guilt of any kind.

The problem with their approach is that the zombie apocalypse won’t happen and the people with guns are likely to be the ones starting the problem when things go slightly bad.

BTW, I have lived through natural catastrophes where we got isolated and without power for many days. Curiously, neighbors got together and helped each other. No rapists or crazy marauders. Sadly, everybody went back to their natural state of isolation once the crisis was averted.

Probably better than at&t in the middle of the city.

It is outrageous because if a sufficient number of people accept this bullshit, it becomes a viable and profitable business model and every provider moves into it. Basically people like me who run away from subscriptions like the devil end up without a choice.

Can we stop calling these “tape” and start calling them “recording”, please?

We should make sure it’s also unconstitutional to block guns at:

• Courthouses
• GOP conventions
• Political rallies
• NRA conventions

Unity, Google, Discord. All within a day or two of each other.

For every number of employees laid off, a VP level employee must be fired. Those employees didn’t hire themselves. Someone came up with the idea.

If companies don’t do this they’re not attacking the root of the problem.

Unless it comes from space. Then it’s measures in Texas sizes.

I honestly never used it. Isn’t it the same as something like alt-f which will open the file menu?

Nimarata Randhawa Haley must be shitting her pants…

Community WiFi. That’s a way to increase adoption I guess.

Another useless key? Use Scroll lock or SysRq for that. Or even better, reuse that stupid “menu” key. They’ll cram one more key to the left of the spacebar and make ctrl, alt, and windows keys smaller. Or change their order.

The PCC must be feeling all smart about their spy balloon design choices. Just wait until they need to talk to Comcast customer support…

When things lock up, will a kill -9 kill rsync or not? If it doesn’t, and the zpool status lockup is suspicious, it means things are stuck inside a system call. I’ve seen all sorts of horrible things with usb timeouts. Check your syslog.

I would really really love to turn off the quick share options in the system share menu. Unfortunately, this is not an option.
