I use an RSS reader to grab headlines from several sources. I read the headlines once in the morning and once in the evening. My goal is to know what is going on. As much as possible I try not to get too emotionally engaged during this process. I try to be informed without being outraged or depressed.

Go read the FIDO threat model if you want to understand how it protects against specific attacks. It is pretty secure.

It is hard to do well which is why I worry. Google probably has the best overall account security, you could fo worse than modeling after them.

The short answer to your question is Passkeys. But you need a whole system of account recovery around them.

I love Lemmy and Voyager and the Fediverse. That said, if it were to become mainstream I forsee some problems. The fact that the login relies on only passwords is pretty terrible. Also, this makes the service vulnerable to bots, sock puppet accounts, brigading, etc.

Vegemite is good. I like Promite better.

We have come so far through the application of rationality and the scientific method. All the wonders of the modern world we owe to science.

What has pseudoscience bought us? Ignorance and stagnation.

I want to live in a world of technological progress not a “Demon Haunted World.”

It was a great trip!

We rented an RV in Denver and did the Grand Circle through Arizona, Utah and Colorado. We got see:

• Arches NP
• Mesa Verde
• Monument Valley (this video)
• Antelope Canyon
• Horseshoe Bend
• Lake Powell
• Bryce Canyon
• Capitol Reef
• Goblin Valley

Anytime I post about AI or LLMs I get aggressively downvoted.

I do not do it very often and when I do it usually a gee whiz, look at that post. Inevitably the response is AI slop!!! AI is bad, you are bad , you should feel bad.

What are you scared of?

If you are worried your parents will see your browsing history, that is you threat model.

If your concern is government surveillance, you need to do more than just clear your browsing history.

Caraway seeds are good too.

So basically its its own genre.

A PC can be a server. A server can be a PC.

Famously Google use commodity PC hardware to build the v1 version of its search engine:

Its like being on an island that is slowly sinking into the sea.

We had a little cabin right out the entrance to White Oak.

Source mod tools not to be confused with Sourcemod tools.

I can only speak for myself and my kids. I have an iPhone because my work gave me one for free. They only support iPhone for security reasons. Keeping Android devices up to date across a large fleet is challenging leaving security gaps. For my kids they wanted my old iPhones because it’s what all their friends have.

I buy a ton of XKCD merch for this very purpose. I support others on Patreon, by buying from their advertisers and by buying their audiobooks on Libro.fm or a physical copy.

Amazon and other middlemen add nothing, they simply take a cut off the top. They maintain DRM solely to extract an maximum profits and lock in their customers and sellers. It is extortion and should be illegal.

For DRM free audiobooks check out Libro.fm.

Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.

So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.
