  • I think y’all are talking about different things. Some sites (like google) have direct yubikey support where you plug the key into the device and what you’re talking about isn’t an issue

    Other sites don’t have direct support, but allow you to use any authenticator app which is what you’re talking about with using the yubico authenticator app/key combination. Plugging it into a yubico authenticator app on any device will show the codes

    Unfortunately I don’t have an answer for a way to protect those other accounts. I guess the hope is that if you lose it, it can’t be tied to your accounts, just the websites themselves





  • I probably wouldn’t trust any free reminder site with all my most important passwords

    Do you have a friend or parent who can schedule an email from their account? If you don’t trust them with your passwords you could also just encrypt the whole thing first. I did something similar to this with screen limit settings while my girlfriend had the password, and it made me never want to access them badly enough to ask her.

    One other thing that’s worked well for me - a kitchen safe timer. I lock up my phone in one at work and get so much more done. You could also theoretically lock your passwords in there too (from minutes to 10 days)

    Anyway, congrats on procrastinating by exploring ways on not procrastinating


  • Ahh yea I get what you’re saying like not part of his actual name. In military contexts including recruiting they require people to go by their title and name. But it does feel forced when the other person isn’t military.

    When I was in high school the Marines set up a pull up bar to see who could do the most and I won (cause I was like 135 lbs and a climber) and SSG Harris hounded me every week for the next year and a half. Even finding me in the cafeteria and sitting with us at lunch. These guys suck.



  • From reading other stuff it seems much more likely that its a nuclear powered satellite jammer, not a nuclear satellite weapon. Nuclear powered would allow it to more effectively jam for longer distances/periods of time. We all have nuclear powered satellites in orbit which breaks no nuclear treaties so it sounds like they’re being intentionally vague for some russia fearmongering.

    Not to say it’s not bad tho - it could take out commercial satellites like starlink very effectively and we know how critical that’s been for Ukraine/would be for Taiwan





  • On my second paid month. Still trying to decide if its worth it. Biggest plus is that its not jammed with sponsored ads and seo’d websites full of garbage matching the search keywords. Downside is that $5 a month just feels like a lot for something that you can almost get for free (outside of the sponsored stuff the results are pretty similar unless you turn up the small web setting)

    I’m able to stay under 300 a month by using ff shortcuts to route simple repetitive searches (weather, sports scores, etc.) to ddg while sending the rest to kagi
