Only luck I had that route was getting a free coffee & b1tcted about the industry. Networking is better than recruiters 95% of the time anyhow. Microsoft doesn’t deserve your data or attention.

ผีเสื้อ in Thai translates to “shirt ghost” 🤷 it sounds very similar to the tone-deaf as “tiger ghost” which is certainly a cooler name, but nope.

Assuming this is just a sensor for air quality tuned to this use case, I would probably have to agree. So long as it isn’t tracking specific students or taking photos, this is about as privacy invansize as the motion detector that opens automatic doors… or any old carbon monoxide or other detector which are used to legit protect public safety, just as preventing children from the claws of the tobacco industry.

They still exist in the malls of Asia

These passkeys want to be unique per site/services & many hardware tokens only have a handful of slots for storage which means such dedicated don’t really work & storing them on say your laptop with your other passwords probably isn’t ideal with Keypass. Many security experts don’t see the advantage over a good hardware token + unique password. Like Big Tech trying to reinvent XMPP with RCS, I feel they are trying to do the same with passkeys so they benefit them.

Based on FIDO Alliance and W3C standards, passkeys replace passwords with cryptographic key pairs. These key pairs profoundly improve security. -- https://developer.apple.com/passkeys/

Based on FIDO2/WebAuthn but unlike them, passkeys are those things Apple & Google have been pushing that live on their servers + one specific device in its secure enclave you as as a user aren’t allowed to look into. FIDO2 is usually tied to some USB security token.

What is wrong with good ol’ TOTP & FIDO2?

I don’t mind a ‘phone call’ so long as it isn’t actually using a phone number where ISPs can spy, but using some encrypted service.

Early 90’s what? You mean early ’90s?

The $2 meal deal, kept me alive in college. Sounds like I couldn’t even get the tiny Doritos bag for $2 now.
