Edit : Great day to discover !dungeoncrawlercarl@lemmy.ca exists!


I assume they’re replacing it with Autopilot Scout TotallyNotAIGuysISwearThisTime.


You can also have it randomize the order of the numbers in the keypad.


Are you actually complaining about having the option to increase security?


You can set up 2fa unlock now.
After fingerprint, I put in a PIN.
If that’s not enough, you can always just require a full password unlock instead.


It’s patched now, but for a few weeks, hackers could VPN close to where your account was made and trick Instagram’s support AI into giving them the keys.
Once it looks like the request is coming from the correct region, they tell the Meta support AI that the account is hacked and ask it to send the verification codes to an arbitrary email address they control.


“Tried to exterminate all mosquitoes”
is a way better origin story for the end of humankind than all the everything else going on.


Now that they’ve milked the brand dry, my bet is they’ll either:
Let it go bankrupt and walk away with the profits, or
Sell to someone who will use what’s left of the brand’s credibility to drain any remaining suckers hoping for a revival.

- A new Surfshark study found that over 50% of the top 15 mobile browsers collect user location data.
- Microsoft Edge, Aloha, Yandex, and Phoenix collect precise location data, with Edge and Aloha openly sharing it with third parties.
- Privacy-focused browsers like Tor, Brave, and DuckDuckGo do not collect app-level location data, proving that continuous tracking isn’t technically necessary.

I see nothing wrong with someone having two homes.
I do.
I used to get my meals from food pantries and churches.
The rule was: no one gets seconds until everyone’s been served.
If that makes me an evil commie or something, fine. It feels less evil than homelessness and plural homeownership existing at the same time.


The pitch MKBHD seemed to settle on was that Google will probably say, “Yes, we’re taking all of your clicks. BUT, when we do finally send someone to your site, it’s a guaranteed sale.”
Which ignores every part of the internet that isn’t trying to sell you something, but it tracks.


Whether self-hosting stays viable long-term is the real question worth sitting with. Right now it works because Bitwarden’s clients are open source and the server API is public. Vaultwarden implements that API, and the official apps can’t tell the difference. That depends on Bitwarden continuing to publish open source clients and not restricting which servers they’ll talk to — neither of which is guaranteed under new management. The brake on the worst case: self-hosting is a listed Enterprise feature that generates real revenue. Killing it upsets paying business customers. That matters. The catch: what Bitwarden sells to enterprises is their own official server stack, not Vaultwarden. Vaultwarden exists in a space they’ve tolerated but never endorsed. If the calculus shifts, the tolerance ends without any announcement. Just let the API drift until compatibility breaks on its own.
Starting to plan my next migration : Vaultwarden, or completely separate alternative like Psono or AliasVault?

The Malawi iron man? He’s awesome.
Imagine the things he could have accomplished if he and all the people like him had Burlington, Ontario money, instead of “I had to make this out of scraps” money.
Edit: Bringing up Kamkwamba is pointing at a rags-to-riches story and pretending it’s proof the game is fair.



Crazy the things you can accomplish when your parents have money.


Me, after firing the Cisco CEO: We just made $53 million in revenue!
But the AI can!
