After reading both of the posts, I’m kind of back where I started with passkeys: neutral. I’m pretty happy with my current setup of a self-hosted password manager, diceware master passphrase and strong, unique passwords for every account, along with an open source app for TOTP. I only ever see passkeys pushed on me for work-related accounts anyway, but I’m not using them there either. I do have a question though if someone can answer: are passkey protected logins also vulnerable to stolen session cookies?

Decades of totalizing propaganda, along with merciless suppression of alternatives.

People are working on it.

You can also self-host cryptpad!

What the fuck kind of ‘product’ did you expect Hunter Biden to be launching?

Go out to the bar!

Depends on your reason for using a VPN. Presumably your Njalla VPS has a static IP address. I like being able to rotate servers if one is being blocked by a given service (ie YouTube).

I’ve been seeing that error sometimes lately. However, after seeing this post I opened Aurora and successfully updated an app. Anon account and VPN, fwiw.

Nvidia just bought huggingface.

I’m from a navy base hospital!

How can you say this about industry, but not something already publicly owned, like police, fire departments or military? And yes, yes, I know how well some of those are run, BUT, would they be better under private control? Hell no. In fact, I’m pretty sure they’d be better without the corrupting influence private wealth has on our political system.

For sure. Everyone has to weigh the options for themselves.

I use posteo and I prepay for a year at a time. Credit usage varies since I’m always adding/removing aliases which cost like .10/ea/mo (you do get 3 free ones). I also know from experience that they don’t just delete all your emails if you are late paying. It’s honestly not something I’ve been concerned with personally.

That’s kind of you to say, thank you :)

No I don’t think so. It’s legitimately spreading fast in some areas, including mine (VA).

I guess I’m near an epicenter. The people I know who have it are actually related, but don’t live in the same house: my friend, his sister and her husband and two kids.

Trump didn’t appear out of thin air. He is the culmination of US history. Every milquetoast democrat we have elected helped to prepare us for Trump. When Obama refused to prosecute the war-criminals of the Bush regime, and in fact expanded the illegal assassination program, he was a forerunner of Trump. If your only standard is “blue”, then you have surrendered any political agency. You are a political non-entity. No one needs court your vote, for it is granted. You guarantee the capitalist agenda with your acquiescence to its illusory constraints.

“Genocide is not on the ballot!”

I have several friends with this syndrome. Has led to them introducing me to some fine vegan cheeses!

The “Homeland” shit was such a (fascist) red flag even then. Telling that there’s never been any real attempt to roll that or the “patriot” act back by either party.

Edit: also, the guy appointed as the first head of that dept, Michael Chertoff, was heavily invested in those body scanners they put in every airport.
