If the users' willingness to do stupid things is boundless, then locking down the system further isn't really of any benefit, since users will continue to venture as far as they need to, no matter the number of safety barriers the

Even if there are keys that offer more, the number 1 brand in hardware keys having that limit is not a good look if the idea is to transfer 'everything' to it.

Wifi is becoming more common on desktop motherboards, but it's still not a guarantee, especially on the lower end. On the higher end they can throw in wifi to make the feature list bigger without cutting into their margins. Out of my s

They've given concrete reasons to not work with them. If Fairphone made devices that fulfilled the requirements, then there wouldn't be any issue.

by Telaneo 3mo ago
Fairphone hasn't talked about GrapheneOS at all, instead opting to be in bed with Murena and /e/os, so I doubt they've even bothered to read the list of hardware requirements. They didn't bother with the Fairphone 6

I can in fact buy one at a local brick-and-mortar store, but the price is triple/quadruple the amount I'd pay for a copy of my house key. Add in that the whole flow is something grandma is not going to be able to grok, and the who

I have 7 house keys and 2 car keys. Getting a new house key is a breeze and cheap, and even if I lose them all, a lock smith can make me whole again. Getting a new car key is a bit more expensive, but also largely not a hassle. Having spare

Even then, unless you use one for work, where work can issue you a new one if you lose it, you're going to need (at least) two Yubikeys if you want to go that route, because not having a backup is a bad idea.

2FA secrets can be backed up, and everyone should do that, for the same reason you'd want to do it with passwords. Passkeys can too, but there it's even more obfuscated than with 2FA.

Yes. Old people constantly do it, since they have no hope of remembering 15 passwords. Sometimes, they can barely remember 1 (one). I've written down one: the master password for my Keepass database, along with instructions on how to g

They're just text behind the scenes, so you can copy them if you really want to. KeepassX lets you do it, and got into a kerfuffle about it.[1] It's an impossible design. It's all just obfuscation, most of which is confusing
