I log in to devices I don't own using a password+2factor. I have a long but memorable password that I just type in. I don't have some obtuse password where I require a password manager to log-in, I refuse to use the suggested pass

I look forward to that, but as it stands currently, only Google and Apple's password managers are supported. All of the support documents mention its tied to the OS and linux support isn't planned. The table on this page shows the

I can't realistically see banks forcing passkey based authentication. If this is actually an open standard, why would it matter if only Google's or Apple's implantation are tested. If only Google and Apple's implementati

I think black box OS integration defeats the point of security. If I can't access and manage the private keys myself, it's effectively a black box implementation.

If I don't control my keys, they are not my keys. It seems more limiting and worse in practice than what it's supposed to be improving on. Google already encrypts my password in password manager, it already can't see my passw

How is that different from password+2 factor? Logging-in is already platform independent.

I think I got a prompt for this yesterday on a Google account, I was logging into an incognito window while connected to a VPN. I am staying away from enabling because it's not clear how to manage the private and public keys myself.

I don't see why I should be worried about storing and using credentials on my own devices. What would be the point, what threat does it protect against, and in what way is it more useful than using OAuth 2.0 "sign in with" fe

I realized I got prompted to start an enroll for this yesterday after reading this webpage. I reacted exactly like this first bullet point: "Some users may be surprised if a biometric authentication suddenly appears on a website or an

Moving somewhere new is similarly challenging, in my opinion, to becoming assimilated into a very passionate and niche online or in person community. I am not trying to argue that one can be a substitute for the other. I believe both situat

I was playing around with a similar kind of problem trying to get it to decode Caesar cipher encoded text. I asked it to start by doing a frequency analysis of the ciphertext and for the most part it was right, but counted an extra instance

There is a lot of value in learning about different cultures by physically travelling, but I think there are other options now. I believe the hyper-globalization of society due to technology allows many more people to experience other cultu

I am glad you were able to have such a positive impact on the trajectory of your life by moving. But you shouldn't generalize your experiences with your home town with everyone else's. Sometimes moving is necessary for growth, but

I installed an offline gallery and disabled Google Photos. For years and years Samsung android phones didn't have the option of cloud backups. There's a very clear distinction between local and cloud, every single photo taken usin

I remember that story, I came across a post asking people to upvote the support ticket on the r/datahoarder subreddit by a fan on the 17th. I came across it and cross posted a link on hacker news on the 22nd in the evening and by the f

It's more about shareable media. Relative to your analogy, I feel storing files in encrypted containers is renting an apartment and feeling confident about the landlord not walking in. On the other hand, if you hang up an obscene image

It's Google's servers. I imagine every content hosting company has a heuristics based approach to detecting CSAM. Google has a habit of tuning moderation algorithms for false positives rather than missed positives. Not having a hu

Apple still scans all sent or received messages for explicit images if the phone is registered to a minor and if a specific setting is turned on by a parent. It blurs received NSFW pictures and gives a warning if sending one. This client si

If the photos are hosted on Google's servers, they have every right to scan whatever they want. If you are privacy conscious, you can upload files you encrypt yourself at the cost of not being able to share easily. I recognize edge cas

They are offering E2EE despite not currently having plans for client side scanning of content. I have to imagine it's different teams because I want to give the encryption team the benefit of the doubt. I can't imagine people work

Thank you for the link, I had not come across that news. It seems like Apple is still scanning photos when NSFW photos are sent to phones belonging to minors. "When receiving this type of content, the photo will be blurred and the chil

I wonder if they will push for client side scanning for CSAM material again, since photos are covered under end to end encryption based on this announcement. As a consumer, it feels like two different teams with two different ideas of what

This seems like a waste of energy. There is not enough text generated at once to be able to tell confidently if something is AI generated or not. Additionally, I'd imagine in adversarial applications, adding an extra step to reword cer

I don't feel bad because I enjoy using technology myself. I realized a long time ago that the bigger waste of energy is caring about how other people use their own devices. For people my age, I can safely say that the Apple Mac vs Wind

Compared to others, I have had good experiences with Brother. The reset procedure is well known enough, for any model I have worked with, that compatible third party toners include a picture with the reset directions on the Amazon listing.

It's not fair to assume every person is going to become addicted to things like diet coke or fast food. "American" diet has room for a lot of clean eating. Processed food shouldn't be considered the same as "America
