Anyone else using this to find new """woke""" games to play? (After reporting for bigotry, of course)

This contributes nothing to the conversation and comes off as conspiratorial.

Okay, so it's just like Yubikey-type stuff? I've thought about that before but it seems very risky - they recommend you get two and set both of them up so you have a backup, but that would require all websites to support that, right?

Pretty much. I suppose that's a very real disadvantage to using physical passkeys. If you lose it, unless you have multiple passkeys configured, or have access to an account recovery method, you lose that account.

But, like you mentioned, using Bitwarden would sidestep that issue, and they do support passkey emulation.

I'm not an expert, so this is an oversimplification, but:

Passkeys are essentially like authenticating the same way you do via SSH, but with websites. The site will use a public key for your account. Your passkey holds the private key. That's it, as I understand it.

The advantages are that your accounts secured by passkeys will be inherently more difficult to crack than even the most complex, random passwords and it can't be phished (if you're using a physical passkey).

The disadvantage is that the standard is still being worked on, and bad actors (MS, Apple, Google, etc.) are eager and willing to sucker people in to using their vendor lock-in software implementations of them. If you want to avoid this, either use real, physical FIDO-capable hardware authentication keys, or use a FOSS password manager that is capable of emulating them.

This isn't inherent to passkeys or the standard that they use. This has to do with the configuration of the service being attacked and the fact that once you've achieved MiTM, the sky is the limit for what you can do.

Passkeys use the same underlying protocol as hardware authentication keys (FIDO, not the YubiKey auth protocol) and should be roughly as secure and vulnerable as that type of MFA method.

It's a two-step process:

1. Misuse the word "groomer" until it means "anyone that isn't strictly heterosexual" (while also taking away useful vocabulary to describe a real abuse tactic).
2. Make cruel and unusual punishment legal for "groomers".

Make no mistake: they want you dead. It's that simple.

It's almost everything. You can play most games on Linux. You can't bolt-on the quality of life features that Valve has on Windows.

There's a reason most Steam Deck users don't install Windows on it, even though you can.

This is the correct answer.

imagine fleeing an argument you're wrong on this way 🤡

Yep. Fuck Nintendo. I don't care how good their games might be, they're not getting another dime from me for as long as they're hostile to their community and customers.

I've only ever heard disingenuous, white, anti-vegan leftists ever make the claim that veganism is anti-indigenous.

RustDesk is the closest alternative, and I think it does a pretty good job.

You tankies are so funny. NATO countries are also authoritarian. The distinction between real leftists and tankies is that we're not playing team sports, so it's quite easy to admit when a country within the big bad boogieman that is NATO sucks.

That still doesn't mean some countries aren't more authoritarian than others, but the move by authoritarian """leftists""" to erase the word "authoritarian" from acceptable parlance is hilarious, and simultaneously demonstrates what people mean when they call you that.

They're transitioning to a non-profit organization now. While non-profits have their own problems, and it doesn't make them exempt from enshittifying, it removes the profit incentive to do so.

In other words: I'd give them a little more credibility when it comes to this sort of thing until they give us a reason not to. I'm hopeful that they can be a positive force in the industries that they are in.

Reactionaries will always piss and moan about every kind of protest; "stupid stunts" or otherwise. Those are the people you don't listen to, because if they had it their way, there would be no protesting.

The fact is that even their outrage draws attention to the issues and non-disruptive protests typically don't have anywhere near that level of notoriety.

Edit: adding a sourced article that cites multiple studies on the matter.

Nice conspiracy.

A step in a marginally better direction. Next step: ban animal agriculture.

We need to solve the problem, not just tax it. Animal exploitation, while reason enough to ban it on its own, is also a primary driver in climate change and zoonotic diseases. If you want to solve either of those existential problems, banning animal agriculture must be a part of that strategy.

Imagine being anti-exploitation/pro-liberation for everything, right up until it involves a hierarchy you benefit from 🤡

Couldn't be me 😎

Is anyone else bothered (but not surprised) by the fact that Amazon/Twitch agreed to cover it up for him? Seems pretty wild that they should be off the hook for working to protect his image after doing predatory shit like this.

God bless 🫡 Get the occupying force the fuck outta there.
