I didn't read the headline as a joke. I did this when I was habitually vaping, I switched to cigarettes to make it inconvenient and unpleasant. People definitely clutched their pearls at me like this though, especially other vapers.

I LOVE passkeys. That said, I store them in my password manager, which means anywhere I have access to my password manager, I can easily login via passkey. I can understand they would be a pain if I was often using new devices and did not have a password manager. I also admit it can increase the risk of lockout, but the sites I have passkeys for generally have recovery methods.

The only issue I've had is sometimes a website has poor support for my password manager, and I can't find a way to put in my passkey. That is very annoying. The benefits are worth that IMO - can't forget my passkey, can't phish my passkey, can't be hacked serverside. It's a clear upgrade to passwords

This was so much fun! Some feedback - I wish the highways were more accurate, seems like a limitation of how elevation is handled on these maps. The navigation line was really hard to see since it was at camera level. It was hard to tell what direction i was going, the minimap and the large map seemed to disagree.

But so fun to play, bookmarked and will be back

It is, but more customers at a time of historically high component prices will do it. If you set your costs assuming every user's hardware is $1, and your customer base doubles when the hardware is $2, you're going to have to raise prices for everybody

I'm reading Maintenance of Everything and it has a section about the switch from artisan-crafted weapons to making uniform parts that feels comparable to this.

French military had pioneered a way to make fully interchangeable weapon parts, but the French public fought back in fear of the jobs of the artisans who used to hand-make weapons. Over the next 20 years they completely lost their edge on the battlefield, nothing could be repaired in the field. Other countries embraced the change, could repair anything in the field with cheap and precise spare parts, and soon fostered in the industrial revolution.

The artisans stopped being people who made weapons, the artisans became people who made machines that made weapons.

I've had success with this! It required a little bit of an existing network. I always wanted to be in a band but never could, I was never invited. But I went to an open mic for a couple months, and just decided to .. start one. Invited people over to jam sometimes. Turned into a regular event, then turned into a band.

I've repeated this a couple times. Yeah, usually I have to do the bulk of the inviting and organizing. And yeah, it's uncomfortable being the "leader". But I know everyone enjoyed the time together. Those that didn't just never came and that's fine too.

You really can just do things!

Can you elaborate why? It sounds like we agree to me. People need access to good tools to curb use, and all else equal, open is definitely better than closed. I just am saying that I'd rather have an effective closed tool than no tool at all

I understand the position, but I think that's a silly concern here. This is an app that stops you from using social media features that absolutely farm every bit of data out of you they possibly can.

Feels a bit like being afraid to install a smart lock on your front door, so instead you leave it unlocked all the time.

I'm a big fan of SSTv2, I've built most of my production services around it the last couple years. I'm excited to try out Ion and I think containers are a great addition.

Hacked account. I assume they used it to scam folks

I tried to return to my Habbo Hotel account in 2016 after a 10 year ban. After some struggling to login, I contacted support, and found out that they delete any account banned for more than SIX MONTHS! I waited 9.5 years to log into an account that didn’t exist. RIP “Mr. Funnyshoes”

As a USA resident, I was recently blocked from mexc, which was the last worthwhile exchange I had for arbitraging a couple assets. So, I'm open sourcing the code I used.

There's no chance this would produce any results with any reasonable-volume coins - I only had success on very low volume coins. Upside is limited, risk is high. I am just posting this in case anyone is interested in this kind of thing.

Feedback welcome!
