  • In one sentence, you say, “just use a password manager”, on the next, “not really an improvement if you need extra software”. I’m not sure what argument you’re having, but neither one really addresses what this article is about.

    This keeps the passkeys in the password manager (I use dashlane, it rocks, and synchronises the passkeys just like the passwords), but this new protocol allows you to change and export the passkeys to other password managers, preventing vendor lock in and allowing for transfer to another password manager.

    Hope this clarifies things! And everyone should use a password manager of some kind; we should expect whatever site we’re using to be hacked, and the only way to be safe is to have a unique password per site.









  • I don’t really care about trustable, the only shampoo that reliably deals with my dandruff / itchy scalp is Head & Shoulders. It’s a pain in the ass if I don’t use it. I’d rather not, honestly - heard lots of, “You don’t need it, let it handle itself, just rinse it, whatever…” - yeah, I love looking like it’s snowing and scratching all the time.






  • I’ve had the “Tetris Effect” happen to me - at one time I was really, really into Tetris (To the point where I could quite happily play GameBoy Tetris at max speed for… well, I did it for a few hours in one game once, much to the annoyance of my mate who actually owned the GameBoy and had agreed it would be, “Swap on death”), and I had the ‘visualising falling bricks’ ephemera afterwards, and vivd dreams about Tetris for a few days afterwards.

    But, then again, if I get into anything pretty seriously, I’ll have dreams about it. I got really, really into building with Lego’s and I had dreams about that; same with Minecraft and No Man’s Sky.


  • I’m going to briefly explain why I downvoted… this (I feel) is an unhelpful comment that doesn’t explain anything. You say, “[if] you’re comfortable support a broken-by-design network, do it.”, but you don’t explain why it’s a broken-by-design network.

    I’ll say - I agree with you, but the comment doesn’t actually enhance the conversation and comes off as abrasive and unhelpful. If I’m looking for information, I’d rather be given education (Even if it’s just a, “Go here for why you don’t do that!”), not just a, “Don’t do it” with no assistance and help for how to do it right.
