The setup string which generates the time codes is basically a second password. If something can read that setup string, they can generate their own TOTP codes for your account whenever they want.

by Klathmon 7y ago
Don't save your TOTP codes in your password manager if you are going for the "best" security. That turns multi-factor auth back into "single factor auth" and leaves you one exploit away from having your password and

I'm not using the "Google Apps" part of their services, i'm just using their "domains" offering at domains.google.com They can be the same thing if you want, but they don't have to be. You can use an exter

I've been very pleased with Google Domains. They probably won't be the cheapest (most .com's are $12 a year), but they don't try to upsell much if at all, the pricing is really consistent and there are no surprises (no b

A few are powered by mains (I have a habit of using them to automate "dumb" appliances. So I put one in a cheap dehumidifier in place of the physical on switch), and the rest with repurposed small lithium ion rechargable batteries

Yeah, although it's a bit more involved than just getting any NodeMCU board. A bare chip makes it much easier, and you need to balance what comes online and how long it sleeps to still work in your use case. It's not all that easy

They are also really capable processors on their own with some nice I/O, and they can be integrated to be really low power so things can run on battery power for months to years.

Well that sucks. I have probably 20 esp8266 chips around the house doing various things (when you can get an MCU for like $2, you find a lot more uses!), but I don't think any of them really need to worry about this aside from the DoS

For what it's worth, they say they don't use or record driving data for their insurance.

Depending on the update rates and accuracy you need, there are many commercially available GPS breakout boards and small cheap modules under about $20 I've used [1] which can be found for about $18 before on some toy projects. [1] htt

I'm not saying it's trivial, but that it's one of many options. I can't make a TV myself, and I find the ability to make a TV valuable enough that I'm willing to pay good money for one, but there are literally thous

To put this as civily as I can, if you don't find any value in this tool, then don't use it. If you think it's trivial enough to not deserve funding, don't fund it. If you really think it's just a config file and no

I completely agree with everything you said. We pay managers salaries even though they often don't write any code, why is management of a widely used OSS project not deserving of funding on its own? I've used standard for years, a

This is the same issue I've had with walmart. For a long time now it's been obvious they have brands make "special versions" of many products for walmart which are lower quality and cheaper. Now they are offering free on

One poblem with that idea: Many streaming services are quite shitty, don't allow you to link directly to a show, and don't allow streaming on PC (or don't allow it any higher than standard def), and most people want to watch

Not to mention that there are still gaps in various TV shows on any online service. I can't remember the show, but a year or so ago I saw like seasons 1 to 3 on Netflix, season 4 was available on Amazon for $1.99 an episode, and the cu

I personally hope they dont. Time and time again it's been shown that one of the weakest links for account security is customer support. It's pretty trivial to gather enough information to impersonate someone well enough for most

vote harvesting is only an issue with mail-in or absentee ballots. in-person paper voting doesn't suffer from that problem, because you walk into the voting area, write your vote on a piece of paper, then you yourself place it into the

Going with a hybrid voting system (say filling out paper ballots but having a machine count them, or using a voting machine and having it print paper ballots) isn't getting the best of both worlds, it's getting the worst of both.

Most of the code here is for scraping images from a 3rd party and converting them into colored blank spaces to display in the terminal. The actual code used to pick a random Pokemon and display it is only a few dozen lines.

This might be a bit off topic, but what are your options for putting images or "image like" drawings in the terminal now days? This seems to just use blank spaces with terminal background color codes to draw things, which means yo

Can we not do this? It's just as valid to have this kind of little thing written in node as it is to have it written in Perl. One person's complaint about a json parser being too heavyweight is just as valid as the complaints that

EVs don't need to be charged at peak usage times. We have ours scheduled to charge starting at 11pm every day (which is just before the lowest demand part of the day in my area), and most EVs include this functionality. And as EVs beco

Regex101 is basically my "regex editor", to the point that I have a keybinding in my normal code editor that opens it in the browser for me. It's such a good resource for understanding and writing both simple and complicated

I think the idea is that if they think they are "undervalued", they can buy the stock back now for X and sell it for >X later to raise more cash for when they need it.

Object.freeze is kind of constant, but you can still easily copy and work with the objects if you need to, for example, the following is valid for most objects: const foo = Object.freeze({ a: 1, b: 2 }) const fooCopy = { ...foo
