you’re adding way too much into this. who said that someone would guilt you? normally when you make someone sad they don’t say anything about it, they just feel a bit worse and continue with their lives

i’m just explaining to you, there’s no way to rationalize your way out of this. you are in complete control over what you say, unless you have verbal tics. and people will understand if you accidentally say something offensive from a tic. do you not understand this? it’s just about responsibility.

take some responsibility for what you say. that’s all.

so you think other people should take responsibility for something they can’t control, but you should have no responsibility for something you can control?

you can’t stop yourself from feeling sad, but you can stop yourself from doing something that makes someone else sad

having no concern for the feelings of others is just really irrational and selfish imo

feelings are important, though? if i can avoid hurting someone and all it costs me is saying blocklist instead of blacklist, that seems like an obvious slam dunk

i hate trump probably as much or more than you do. please re-read my comment as i actually wrote it, because i meant what i wrote. i did not mean what you imagined i might be secretly thinking or whatever. please don’t jump to conclusions :(

don’t get me wrong, i would have voted harris. (im not american) but she wouldn’t have been good. she wouldn’t have even been ok. but she was better than trump.

she still would have supported genocide in gaza, and her term would have pushed people further towards fascism. there was really no real choice in that election, sadly. the usa was already too firmly controlled by the ruling class.

and thank god for that, i’d been saying for years, webauthn is great tech which will never be adopted by normal people, because it had an awful name. luckily we were able to just call OATH TOTP “two factor authentication” or that would have been totally DOA too. I got big hopes for passkeys!

everyone is sick and tired of tech promising to make the world better, only to make everything worse. i totally get the mistrust, the feeling that this is probanly just another trick from big corporations to steal even more of your privacy. i know much better than most people what it’s like. i know you’ve got no real reason to believe me, i’m just a random silly gay furry boy, but, trust me, in this case, we should be adopting this tech. if you’ve got family members or friends who are more vulnerable to phishing scams - often scammers target the elderly - i’d really encourage you to encourage them to set up passkeys. as always, i strongly recommend bitwarden - it can manage passkeys and sync them between devices and it’s totally secure and open source.

much love & solidarity!

yeah that’s totally true, but usually modern devices ensure that the passkeys are protected with a PIN or some biometric security, so I think it’s at least as strong as having a password manager on your device that can be unlocked with a PIN.

not really sure what you mean about “out of the ordinary” logins - it sounds like you’re thinking about phishing risks? but remember - passkeys cannot be phished. they verify the identity of both sides of the authentication token exchange - the server verifies you, and you verify the server. If you only use passkey authentication, you are safe from being phished. the most secure system would be one entirely without passwords/oath totp

TOTP 2FA is less secure than passkeys. 2FA TOTP keys can be phished. Passkey authentication cannot be phished. This is a security improvement which can make people completely immune to phishing attacks. That’s huge. And it doesn’t have any privacy risks, no loss of anonymity. It’s an open standard.

This is, objectively, a rare example of new technology which will make the world better and safer for us.

i’m not an expert by any means, but from what i understand, most symmetric key and hashing cryptography will probably be fine, but asymmetric-key cryptography will be where the problems are. lots of stuff uses asymmetric-key cryptography, like https for example.

be the change you want to see in the world! <3

do you mute them or something? i don’t think i could focus on reading anything with that shit blaring in the background!

can’t wait to have to explain the difference between asymmetric-key and symmetric-key cryptography to my friends!

I can deal with ad when watching TV or YouTube.

i can’t! i really hate ads, they’re so loud and obnoxious, they’re like jump scares every time they come on! ugh! this car would be like my idea of a nightmare!

it looks like a little sandwich to me, two slices of bread with a bit of green and pink in the middle!

hehe, this reminds me - yesterday i watched oliver & company, like 15 mins into the movie i turned to my boyfriend and said “i love every single one of these dogs” and he replied “i do too”

wow me and cloudflare have that in common i guess :33

Peanut is a cute name though! Pretty memorable :D

I think their comment was tongue in cheek :) like they’re saying you need to pay for server maintenance
