This misses the point. There is no one "money" in our psychology. Food money is not the same as rent money and is not the same as money allotted for a fancy holiday. House safety, food safety, personal safety are what humans worri

There should be a way to prevent it by default in browsers.

It's amazing how people fail to see that public cloud is the equivalent of a hotel. It's far cheaper than buying a house... in the short term. Cloud providers are not getting hardware, datacenters, electricity and labor for free.

You are lucky it was 30%. For most people hired locally it would be much lower in most companies.

50%?! More like 90%. And your point does not explain at al why salaries are so much lower for on-site workers everywhere else in the world. The answer, I'm afraid, is privilege.

Perhaps it should be moved to wikibooks or have another project for opinion pieces.

Spot on! Very often throwing frameworks at a problem only makes it worse.

Correct. The hard threshold is 40.

The attacker can very easily use your workstation as a vantage point. Even used directly your browser and your SSH sessions. It's makes it even more difficult to detect and trace.

No. Once you authenticated your sessions are the target.

No: ozone only makes things worse. Plus, a lot of smoke from burning plants has large particles that can be filtered much better with hepa filters

"threaten", as if it was a bad thing. The world desperately need energy-efficient, sustainable public transport and cities designed around it. The electric car will not save us. Trains and bicycles might.

You can buy a ionizer for less than $10 on aliexpress and it might be less electrically dangerous. However - DON'T DO IT. Many ionizers generate ozone which is unhealthy. Also if the goal was merely to combat dust settling on the floor

2 billion individuals on this planet are unable to afford a shiny new computer. "I don't mind about resource usage" is a proxy for "I don't care about those people" Also, many devices do not allow RAM upgrades

> open hardware is precisely as trustworthy as closed hardware Nice work but the conclusion is absolutely unwarranted: Security is all about mitigating risk. With closed hardware, as much as software, it becomes much easier to implement

Quite the opposite. B/W is the easiest behavior and it's very common in children. It's well known that maturity and "grey thinking" go together.

If a workstation is compromised, having multi-factor authentication is useless for most services: The real targets become the HTTPS session cookies and files on disk.
