Cool, I’ll check this out. Always a bit of a ball ache when I need to access the server while lying in and too lazy to get up. Using vim on a phone is always an adventure in patience.

That doesn’t sound like a TOTP vs passkey situation though. It sounds like the program just releases the passkey when you give it the fingerprint. There wouldn’t be anything stopping the program from generating a OTP and passing that along when you identify with the fingerprint.

I think a big issue is how difficult it can seem to be to get easy access to TOTP codes, like in your example digging up your phone. But that’s more of a browser/operating system failure for not implementing a way to generate those codes like they can already store usernames and passwords.

TIL you were two different people! 😄 don’t I look silly now

Hey, I know you! I really like your posts! I don’t comment very often in them (though I should, because you play some banger games), but they always make me smile.

Yeah Moq is what I used when I worked with .NET.

On an unrelated note; god I miss .NET so much. Fuck Microsoft and all that, but man C# and .NET feels so good for enterprise stuff compared to everything else I’ve worked with.

I think a large part of interfaces everywhere comes from unit testing and class composition. I had to create an interface for a Time class because I needed to test for cases around midnight. It would be nice if testing frameworks allowed you to mock concrete classes (maybe you can? I haven’t looked into it honestly) it could reduce the number of unnecessary interfaces.

But that was the entire point from the first reply. If you don’t trust external hosts, there is nothing for you.

What? If you’re talking about an already leaked list of passwords in a CSV it doesn’t matter?

Kinda yes, but really no. If they assume there is always a comma, but if you add it after you’ve generated whatever password you’ve chosen you’re still making it harder for them. You haven’t compromised on the length, and now they need to figure out where in the rest of your random password the comma goes.

A friend of mine showed me their nothing phone, one with the glyph lights in the back. It wouldn’t have been an expensive version, but even so the back plate felt very plasticy. Is that still the case with them?

For an ELI5 explanation, this is what happens when you lower the bit rate: https://youtu.be/QEzhxP-pdos

No matter the resolution you have of the video, if the amount of information per frame is so low that it has to lump different coloured pixels together, it will look like crap.

Why play games if you’re not interested in them? Or don’t have the energy to play. Not so easy to “chill” if you’ll be kicked out your house next week. Lost your job? Bah, just chill and game.

What an absolutely brain dead thing to say.

No one is saying those who can’t access or reqd English wikipedia is inferior. The issue here is when what is on a non-english wikipedia article is misleading or flat out harmful (like the article says about growing crops), because of juvenile attempts at letting machine translations getting it very wrong. So what Greenland did was shut down its poorly translated and maintained wiki site instead of letting it fester with misinformation. And this issue compounding when LLMs scrape Wikipedia as a source to learn new languages.

I understand you’re trying to be nice to minority languages, but if you write research papers you either limit your demographic to your own country, or you publish in English (I guess Spanish is pretty world wide as well). If you set out to read a new paper in your field, I doubt you’d pick up something in Mongolian.

Even in Sweden I would write a serious paper in English, so that more of the world could read it. Yes, we have text books for our courses that are in Swedish, but i doubt there are many books covering LLMs being published currently for example.

Definitely. If you have a second one it’s very safe to try out a full Linux install.

Two separate disks. The issue is that windows likes to overwrite or otherwise mess with the boot loader if it’s not the default windows one.

You’re generally safe if you 1) install them on two different disks and 2) if you’re installing windows later, unplug any drives you don’t want to use with windows. Microsoft likes to poke all drives it can see during installation even if you don’t touch them.

Hadn’t heard of those before. I’ll give them a looksie

The only issue with man pages is that it often doesn’t cover common use cases. I know info pages often have that kind of information, but it’s hit or miss it they exist.

There’s only one right answer and we all know which one it is.
