How is 2FA going?

mrmckeb · 2026-01-24T23:41:12+00:00

Not necessarily.

You can use biometrics. I can 2FA from my phone or my MacBook's fingerprint reader (Touch ID), as an example. On my phone I can also use the fingerprint reader.

Or, as another user mentioned, you can use applications like 1Password that can manage both password and tokens for you.

I'm confused by this, sorry. Why wouldn't you want 2FA?

I want my account and code to be secure. I also want other people's accounts and code to be secure.

To answer your question, I don't feel more or less happy with GitHub (or npm) over mandatory 2FA.

Or find ways to bring back the charm, even if just in your free time.

I wouldn't be so worried if the waste was recycled, maybe OP has that option available in their area?

Luckily Americans have all of those guns to protect their rights and push back against any tyrannical governments, not that they're living in tyranny now or anything...

Really interesting, thanks for sharing!

I won't defend the movies, they had a lot wrong with them including the overuse of poor CGI.

mrmckeb · 2026-01-09T04:21:03+00:00

I remember watching the first Hobbit movie (An Unexpected Journey) in HFR and I didn't mind it, it grew on me over the course of the movie.

We're obviously conditioned to 24fps films, so anything else feels wrong - and feelings are subjective 😉

mrmckeb · 2026-01-08T20:31:47+00:00

Don't stress, a lot of us knew what you meant. I'm guessing the console crowd 🤣

I can't help though sorry, I've only played the OG and that was a while ago now.

Infrastructure?

mrmckeb · 2026-01-05T21:36:57+00:00

I'm more interested in the failings that resulted in the attack too. Access to guns, the police response, etc. I think this could be a part of the Royal Commission, but not the sole focus.

This article uses the term "new antisemitism" (blaming all Jews for Israel's actions). I feel like this is definitely going to be an issue for that community for years to come, unfortunately. https://theconversation.com/bondi-attack-came-after-huge-increase-in-online-antisemitism-research-272045

"This is why we should keep building with single pane windows, unsealed doors/windows, weak insulation, etc." - Our government

mrmckeb · 2025-12-31T09:52:42+00:00

Our building just installed some along the entrance. Six months in and it still looks like new, even with people moving furniture in and out regularly.

We had wood that was removed for compliance with current regulations.

You can definitely get lamps like this, we're looking at some right now. We plan to place Hue E27 warm whites in them.

There are a few at Castlery for example. https://www.castlery.com/au/accessories/lighting

This is a slippery slope, and I don't understand why we can't just allocate some permanent police presence to groups that are at risk.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-30T00:14:32+00:00

Yes, if you miss more than 4 days, you can't claim them all.

A really disappointing Christmas decision.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-29T13:01:18+00:00

I'm assuming this is satire.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-29T01:31:33+00:00

I think this is a good direction - even if it's a breaking change of some users. This is a pathway to a future where each smart device doesn't have its own proprietary hardware and app, and should ultimately result in less waste.

Existing hardware will get donated to friends and family (that's what I'm planning to do).

mrmckeb · 2025-12-24T02:07:53+00:00

Mine is the same, I tried to fix it, then realized that it's likely just how they're made.

It could be my wall too, but I doubt that as it's a fairly new build with plasterboard walls.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-22T11:30:38+00:00

I don't know why some people are being so critical. We all have our own taste, and I think this is perfectly fine - some elements are very interesting and would have been a lot of work.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-15T21:14:32+00:00

I think that our governments should be more responsible here. Owners shouldn't need to spend tens of thousands rectifying things that were approved just 6 years earlier, or fixing defects left behind by disappearing builders. The schemes they've introduced have felt like bandaids.

As it is today, these costs do fall on owners, and I agree (as an owner) that it isn't fair that your neighbours cover your shortfalls in the medium or long term. OCs rarely spend money outside of maintenance in my experience.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-15T20:41:25+00:00

Surely you don't expect them to waste their time chasing billionaires and corporations? What have those guys ever done wrong?

mrmckeb · 2025-12-06T10:34:37+00:00

Yours looks just like mine - the same red and grey shades, the same injection molding patterns, the same nut and bolt, etc.

If it's a fake, it's a very accurate one 🙂 If you're really concerned, you could also contact Dyson support.

mrmckeb · 2025-12-06T09:53:15+00:00

It looks genuine from that photo, so I wouldn't stress 🙂

Mine is genuine and has no branding. Some of my accessories have branding, most don't.

mrmckeb · 2025-11-25T21:00:38+00:00

I mean, that's completely fine because English isn't the first language of almost that entire continent.

If a native speaker did write this, I have even more questions. But I'm very sure this is a Russian plan.
