What they don't grasp is that we'd send our guy to jail: because they won't.

That's the difference.

When a corrupt democrat is exposed they're expelled (bye bye Cuomo)

When a corrupt republican is exposed they're re-elected.

I bet USB c connections could fit in a floppy drive slot

Yes but we're also more mastodon less bluesky. If a bluesky-esque clone of Reddit comes along with better UX and paving over the issues of federation then it will win, the way Bluesky has beaten out Mastodon as the Twit alternate

Affinity is great

Zoom ai transcriptions also make things up.

That's the point. They're hallucination engines. They pattern match and fill holes by design. It doesn't matter if the match isn't perfect, it will patch it over with nonsense instead.

Not necessarily the same hacker.

There's never certainty when talking about hackers...

That's verbatim the content of the email and the email hack does not appear to be malicious (unlike the ddos or the password breach)

It's more likely that this is 3 different groups than it is a single group.

This guy is outing the archive for terrible security posture by bringing attention to it because they received disclosures and did not fix them.

Don't get shit twisted - he's the hero here. IA fucked up and has been vulnerable to manipulation by any number of corporate or national actors this entire time.

Ultimately I'm pro passkey but when it comes to password managers: if the hash of your vault is easy to crack you've fucked up big time. There shouldn't be any way to crack that key with current tech before the sun explodes because you should be using a high entropy passphrase.

Never forget that technologically speaking you're nothing like the average user. Only 1 in 3 users use password managers. Most people just remember 1 password and use it everywhere (or some other similarly weak setup).

Not remembering passwords is a huge boon for most users, and passkeys are a very simple and secure way of handling it.

Passkeys are an ancient authentication setup, have always been better than passwords and are finally getting traction.
