If I’m not authorized to use those keys, how do I use Switchy?

I guess all Nintendo games are illegal to play by that argument, even with their console

If you like Alan Tudyk and are okay with mild horror, Tucker and Dale vs. Evil is one that I loved going into without any spoilers

Yeah, it’s much less convenient. I prefer TOTP, but I will pick HOTP over Cisco Duo’s proprietary implementation that I can’t use without their specific app if those are my only options

Yeah, Yubikey fits - it implements TOTP/HOTP, and bitwarden is great

Just “app-based” worried me about apps rolling their own implementations instead of using standards

App-based is also unacceptable if it’s a proprietary implementation

TOTP/HOTP are the best standards right now

Thanks for the correction - I’ve been using enough different ones that my information might have been out of date there

Yeah, that’s always been my experience with KPIs, too.

It’s always turned into a game for managers - they don’t have the ability to actually improve the product, so the measurements change or they add an extra field in the ticket…

My first job was as a cashier and we were trained to press the calculate button on the register after each item we scanned. Did that make the checkout go faster? Nope. Did it make their measurement look better? Yeah, since that wasn’t “checkout time” in their report

At another job, patches weren’t merged fast enough. So, instead of making any changes that would improve the product, we were ordered to make one ticket for investigating the problem and a second for integrating the fix. It made fixing issues slower, but their KPIs went up…

Yeah… we’re having this with one of our suppliers right now…

We’re showing them all the issues they aren’t solving and they’re saying “look all our KPI numbers look amazing”

So now we have to explicitly go into each ticket and mark it as dissatisfied, since they don’t take into account how long the ticket was open, how many meetings had to be called over the ticket, etc. just whether it was closed without clicking the extra “we’re dissatisfied” button

Pixels (at least ordered from Google) allow you to unlock the bootloader without any exploits, so they normally have the best ROM support

GrapheneOS is where a lot of the security work that ends up making it to other Android devices starts

CalyxOS is a good option for more support for standard Google Play apps

LineageOS is the original big ROM, but I think last time I checked, you couldn’t reenable the secure boot chain

The article you’re responding to specifically states he didn’t have sirens on

It should make it somewhat easier for individuals as well

The idea is that you have the vendor image with Qualcomm or Samsung specific drivers, and you can build AOSP for everything else

The structs in the kernel have some extra GKI space so if they change, it can still support the older drivers

The downside is Google is planning on pushing the updates through the Play Store, so it will take some effort to make it work in AOSP for Lineage/Graphene, etc

For what it’s worth, that’s the goal behind GKI (generic kernel image)

It allows Google to update the phone without the manufacturer’s input

We do know octopi, for example, can solve complex puzzles

I can tell you the last time I called customer support and it caused me to return the product and never buy from that company again

That’s harder for companies to put into an excel sheet, though

They take a cut from anyone who subscribes to a podcast, so it’s one of their revenue streams

Nearly every computer you use, including the ones people are starting to use for self-driving, can have their memory accidentally modified from cosmic rays

We try really hard to protect spaceships from them, since they’re subject to more

However, due to the law of large numbers, sometimes your computer will get random bit flips - where it should be a 0, but it’s instead a 1, or vice versa

They haven’t yet supported right to repair for their own devices, so there’s very little flip flopping

Security is really hard, and these operating systems are built with new features and release dates as the primary concerns

If you’re trying to follow proper security practices as of today, ensure the device is up to date and rebooted daily

Use the parental control features as one part of parenting, but don’t expect them to be infallible

I only know how to get around my employer’s device settings for iOS. I would have to have access to your phone to try to get around them

The issue I have with your comment is “a child isn’t going to find a way around it” I was much more motivated to find a way around settings my parents set on devices when I was a child, and I definitely shared how to do it with my friends

Maybe your settings are secure, but it’s not trivial for most parents
