I never flag content but this was an easy one. Ignoring the utter stupidity of not being able to sanely transfer money in the US, there are countless better ways of sending someone money in a scenario like this. In fact, it's hard to t

I swear to God I'm taking crazy pills in this thread. The second that the government can arbitrate access to my Google account is the day I nuke my Google account from freaking orbit. I've been using a yubikey on my Google account

This makes absolutely beyond zero sense given how Google accounts work on Android, or just in general.

This came up two months ago and I posted screenshots of a new 2FA setup and it very clearly allowed registering a TOTP or Yubikey without SMS. You just had to actually spend 10 seconds looking at the page and seeing there was a link for it.

I've still yet to see a single bit of proof of this outside of claims from people who couldn't bother to do the things you're supposed to do when setting up 2FA. I remain skeptical. All these claims and not a single screensho

1. why don't you have any recovery codes? This topic comes up bi-monthly... (To everyone else reading this, no, you're not immune, go save the backup codes) 2. If it says it's sending a code to a device, that's not SMS,

You could just use Helix instead. `hx --tutor`. It enables the functionality of a 12-hour tuned Vim, out of the box, except faster and with less crashes / weird plugin interactions. OP mentions they're open to comments about Helix

Oh YEAH! If you're on a plane, with a bunch of music downloaded. All the sudden you realize the Treble sounds dreadful . Oh right, Spotify changed the quality for downloads again. I'll just go ahead and update that for next time

I'm leaving Spotify because their Android client is hot dogshit (sorry, not sorry). They put the unfavorite button right next to the cast button AND in the drop-down shade. Why would I ever be trying to unfavorite a song from there? Th

When I mentioned de-duping and append-only logs, I had this in mind. It's hard to imagine implementing a backup system with those two properties that don't include snapshotting nearly by design-necessity. (Beyond even the fact tha

inotify has pretty paltry limits. My ~/code is only 40-50GB but there's no way inotify can watch it all. Thus, syncthing basically constantly has to rescan. It's not great. And yes, rebasing linux+nixpkgs on even an hourly ba

No, I distinctly don't want borg. It doesn't help or solve anything that Syncthing doesn't do. The obsession with borg and bup are pretty baffling to me. We deserve better in this space. (see: Asuran and another who's na

Um, it's just an example? Does this somehow help? 1. (term1) `ssh remote pulsemixer` 2. (term2) `ssh remote "pacat </dev/urandom"` Observe that (1) you can see a new client appear on the remote, and (2) audio wil

Man, how much are distros + bad user config hurting user "Linux" reports. Thank god for NixOS where (1) we do a decent job of base config and (2) user config errors are basically trivially identifiable. 1. Open `pulsemixer` to mon

I got hit by a scooter (on a sidewalk) while boarding a public bus. I had my wallet in my hand to tap on. In my daze, i set it down next to me instead of placing it in my purses. 30 seconds later, the guy who had to have seen me hit grabs i
