@nikitonsky Is it the 22nd century yet?!

@nikitonsky printers have greater chances working on Linux given that other OSes have a tendency of not working in general. Jokes aside, there's a 50% chance that printing a document from my MacBook won't work until I restart the printer a few times. I haven't had that problem when running Linux (same printer, same WiFi)

@nikitonsky ask @scifiinterfaces 😁

@nikitonsky Haha nice — so much better than popup js code! They put in some effort into it.

@nikitonsky I only see a guy riding a Rhino.

@nikitonsky if you switch from https to ssh you will have SSH key experience.

BTW, SSH key ≈ passkey. The same public/private key pair and even sort of password manager.

Seriously, is there really no way to clone public Github repo without auth?

My bad: I was using a non-existent URL and Github kept asking me for password. I googled the error and tried to set up auth instead of checking if I am even doing the right thing. Facepalm

@kanec maybe Spotify couldn’t wait to scan your network? 🧐

@nikitonsky Is “oz” reading “ounce” better?

@nikitonsky Wait til you hear how we stylize "et" as "&" and pronounce it "and"

@nikitonsky haha. Only made sense when I first found out because “pound” is “Libra” in Spanish 😀

@nikitonsky they show that they know how to center text with icon

@nikitonsky DB is the most fucked up railway company ever. You also get different notifications based on the language of your device/app.

@nikitonsky I wonder why DB navigator is not yet your most favorite app.:)
E.g. it cannot use the locale consistently, Apple Watch app is plain broken etc.

@nikitonsky passkey is set of public and private key, so they are better than just long password (nothing can leak from website DB)

@nikitonsky You’re correct; an intuitive interpretation of a pass key is a randomly generated password. They’re better than passwords because you can’t use them in a phishing site, and because they’re guaranteed to be unique. And it’s not really possible to steal them.

However, the UX is not as refined as using a password - it’s closer to using a hardware security key. Implications for recovery are similar, if that’s your only way in.

@nikitonsky Passkeys are better because they provide a much stronger guarantee to the service that it is actually you. Phishing, password theft, impersonation practically not possible.

Passkeys are worse because they are less portable between ecosystems, providers and devices. There is inherent tendency for big players (Apple, Google, MS) to win the whole market

@nikitonsky honestly seems like a strange sign, makes it seem as if the cyclist should be afraid of the dangerous car behind them

@nikitonsky welcome to the Netherlands!

@nikitonsky Никогда бы не подумал, что это какая-то редкость! В детстве в Екатеринбурге жил в доме с рядами вертикальных ящиков с прорезями наверху, сейчас Белграде в моём подъезде ряды вертикальных ящиков с фронтальной загрузкой. Беглый поиск по картинкам показал, что они реально гораздо менее популярные, чем горизонтальные. Интересно, почему Оо

@nikitonsky most of the buildings in Barcelona have locally-designed vertical post boxes. The idea is that it fits a magazine-size put vertically

@nikitonsky I’m not sure whether it’s the teeth or the third eye that is more scary.

@TodePond I couldn’t resist extending & integrating it into Humble demo suite

@nikitonsky sum of word count of all articles you've read?
Although, I agree it comes off a little creepy

@nikitonsky have you actually been reading it? I’ve got 90250 and the real number should be around 100.

@nikitonsky :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

@nikitonsky
Just don't move your mouse vertically between the q and the u
😝

@nikitonsky Should it also blink when you click (or poke an eye)?
