Again i am not intimately familiar with 3d printing technology, but the timing of at least some of those announcements might be due to expiration of relevant patents, rather than the invention of new technology. https://techcrun

The point is people understood what Google was from the get-go, because they had used similar products to serve their needs before. On the other hand, the invention of the internet was not immediately popular because it was so different tha

A shout-out to mobirise. I haven't used it much, but been playing around with a bit the last 2 days, and it looks very good. For those who don't know, its an offline website builder with a drag-and-drop UI. Pretty good to knock o

My point is someone should have written a TOTP client for your particular platform. Also different services use different TOTP systems. I am not well-versed in the matter. For example Steam uses its own app, many apps use google authenticat

For international travellers, I imagine its a problem. Within a country - it is less a problem. In india at least, we have number portability between providers, so there is little reason to change your number.

Another advantage of sms over dedicated 2FA apps is that even a 10 dollar phone or decade old phone running palm OS can be supported through it. (provided there is network coverage). A problem with sms though is that you need cell phone co
