mostly recovery codes. I have multiple yubikeys but that’s mostly for work

yeah, when sites support it, that’s definitely the best option, but many sites only barely do totp lol so I have to have to put the totp codes somewhere, and the yubikey handles it in a pretty nifty way

Seems like a real mixed bag, leaning towards a negative because it requires a civil lawsuit. On one hand sure, good, you can sue harassers at the source. On the other hand how many nasty things like neo-nazi group membership are brought to light through doxxing and will also become illegal. and since it requires you bring suit, this will protect the people with more money/resources more often than not.

as far as I know upstream lemmy doesn’t want it and is waiting on pictrs proxying support. If I’m wrong though our code is public, I’m sure a dev would be happy to put together a PR,

Hexbear.net stays winning, external embeds are domain whitelist-only until pictrs adds proxying support, and blurred by default.

Good PSA tho, I’d honestly encourage other instances to do the same but it requires dev effort that I know not everyone has, and upstream isn’t quite as paranoid about this stuff.

For reference:

That literally only happened because the USSR and China would not and could not vote on it (respectively) because the UN was insisting that the KMT who only controlled taiwan were the legitimate representatives of china, and the USSR was boycotting the UN votes on principle.

The point isn’t “UN is infallible” the point is “Even anti-communist countries in the UN agreed that PRC is the legitimate government of all of China.”

gravity bong. commonly made out of plastic bottles like a 2L of soda.

Could be very very good shit. Shame I’m not using android anymore

you smoking out of a geeb or something?

even if it doesn’t affect the brain, it will affect your lungs, and I wouldn’t bet on it not affecting the brain too

blame lemmy’s terrible Active algo. It’s a struggle session factory

Not on iOS but I like my yubikeys. Depending on your requirements (if you have less than 32 TOTP accounts per yubikey), they can handle your TOTP directly instead of just using them to unlock Bitwarden.

For security I don’t like to keep my TOTP keys in my password manager, even if it is strongly protected. With a yubikey I can ensure that both access to the key AND a physical touch is necessary to generate any codes. So even if I leave it plugged in on a remotely compromised PC I’m mostly protected, because a touch is required.

you wouldn’t want to force names to be unique, but offering it as a suggestion, the same way similar posts pop up below when you are creating a post with a similar title/URL, that could be useful!

Also, the deepest faith you can have in a political ideology is when you don’t recognize you have one.

This is a powerful truth. Some of the most critical actors in maintaining the status quo are the mass of people who are convinced it is the neutral, natural way of the world and not informed by politics at all.

Yeah this. No association is implied just by using open source software. You don’t have to agree with Richard Stallman to use GNU utils, nor linus torvalds to use linux, it doesn’t make you suspect politically, it’s just software.

If you don’t wanna be associated with communists then don’t use a communist instance (hexbear, lemmygrad), that’s fine. even if they don’t make their own instance they can pick and choose their associations. Frankly, being associated with reddit is far worse than being associated with commies.

I think the ama is over? But I like this idea! Not sure of the implementation headaches, but it seems a lot more feasible than the other proposals I’ve heard, most of which involve making community names globally unique

None. I was raised Lutheran and it never really was important to me, just something I was forced to do. I sorta liked the singing and community aspects, but by high school I was done with it. I try not to be a reddit atheist though, I honestly respect anyone whose religion brings them to similar moral conclusions as my own. There is plenty in the christian bible to get you there, helping the poor and the sick, giving up material wealth and living in common, but in america the vast majority of christians do not follow the teachings of jesus in any meaningful way, so I’m not too broken up about no longer being christian, and even the highly progressive churches have often been pretty culty in my and my friends’ experience.
