> since passkeys remove the need for 2FA as they are stored on your device
Technically passkeys are 2FA, because you need the device and you need your body. The server doesn't see both things, but if you steal the device without also kidnapping or compromising the user (such as by cutting off or taking a cast of their fingertip) you still can't log in, you need both factors.
Of course if the users biometrics are compromised they have little recourse to change them, but that's a general problem of biometrics as a factor.
Every day was like those old sitcoms where the only joke was people always just missing each other because they didn't have the Internet. They were popular because they were relatable because missed connections were just life. You would plan whole days about being near a specific landline phone just so you wouldn't miss an important call.
No examples, no reference to CVEs, just a bald assertion of scary numbers.
You have a bunch of new users signing into a new-to-them service, and the majority of them are still active months after the initial spike triggered by Musk's mismanagement on Twitter. Not only that, but the usage is dozens of times greater than before the muskopalypse. This is not a "slump". This is surprising strength for a complex and unoptimized platform.
From https://eiara.nz/posts/2022/De... :
MANY criticisms of this post were met with responseslike:
“He builds lightsabers, James. Chill.”: link
“Bye bye now”: link
“Yes Sebastian. And if you can’t chill, you can unfollow. That’s how social media works. Just chill.”: link
“Feel free to block or unfollow us” in response to “if only they’d not hire cops”: link
“people can follow or unfollow us if they like” link
The story and all too many of the responses are missing the point.
It's not just that the new hire is a policeman engaged in clandestine surveillance, it's that they utterly dismissed the possibility that this could be a concern, AND they were nasty and dismissive responding to people who had a problem with it, and started making up tall tales about why the got pushback.
Who needs to be fact-checked more than politicians?
Is this taken from the actual paper or is it some reporter or commenter's misinterpretation of the original text?
Can't buy eBooks from bookreader apps except for iBooks. And Google has started doing the same thing. I have to go to the browser to buy books for my reader on both platforms now.
... I can't find it now. If someone can pull it up that would be smashing.
Apparently (and approximately), there was a program that was using an error code returned from a DOS system call as a file handle (may have been 1, standard output), but it worked because the error code was 1. In Windows NT, a different error code was returned, so NT detected that this program was running and returned error code 1.
This is like 2007 when companies like Nissan and IBM and Toyota and Sun were buying islands in Second Life to advertise to residents. Except with even fewer customers because you didn't need a headset to visit them.
We just had one of our legs cut out when the ancient hardware in the meter can failed, and we ended up with a patchwork of powered and unpowered circuits in the house. all the lights and power sockets in the bedrooms were out, as well as all the lights and sockets in the den except for a 20A line we'd had put in for the treadmill.
I bought a Samsung Exhibit for my first Android phone. It was running Gingerbread, and Ice Cream Sandwich came out 9 months after its release date and it never got an update.
How do you figure? It's not a complete roll-out yet. And if only half the users have enabled 2FA then a 50% reduction in compromised accounts is consistent with 100% effectiveness of their MFA.
They allow you to use open-system challenge-response devices like Yubikeys, and TOTP software like the one built into 1Password.
