xylogx,

So your saying a guy who has 40 years of experience in lawmaking is good at lawmaking?

How to make it so frequently used sites don't constantly require 2FA? [SOLVED]

EDIT: After reading all the responses, I’ve decided to allow cookies to persist after they close the browser, which I expect will make it so that 2FA doesn’t kick in as often, at least not on their most frequently used web sites. I may also look into privacy oriented browser extensions that might offer some protection, such...

xylogx,

Allowing cookies for websites you are logged into makes sense. If you are going to login the site already knows who you are can track you, so you do not lose much with the exception. What I do for some sites like google services is access them from a separate browser.

xylogx,

I use alt browsers like DDG and Brave that have builtin ad blocking. I also have a pihole.

xylogx,

Yes they are available on iOS.

xylogx,

Not anymore according to Wikipedia:

SteamOS, version 3.0. This new version is based upon Arch Linux with the KDE Plasma 5 desktop environment

xylogx,

Good question! After installing Emulators on my Steamdeck I realized it could run as a desktop. Also, I learned it was a rolling release. This seemed attractive to me, so I wanted to hear how mainstream this could be.

Sounds like the answer is not very. Some other good suggestions in this thread I might try, though.

xylogx,

The thing is, you never know for sure until you try it.

xylogx,

I am just getting started myself. I have been tracking my reading with a spreadsheet and I was able to bring my data in. I like the way it organizes and tracks the books I read. But it seems to me one of the core features is connecting with other readers to help find new things to read, so I am trying to find some well connected nodes as a hopping off point.

xylogx,

I used to read only physical books, but when I got into audiobooks I noticed I had a digital trail of the books I was reading. I started to recording them in a spreadsheet. Eventually I was able to bring that into Goodreads as a way to get algorithmic recommendations based on past reading habits. I do not see that works very well, however. Bookwyrm seems to work differently. It is more of a social network and it helps you find new books to read by finding other readers with similar interests to yourself.

xylogx,

Thanks! I was playing hide and seek with this little fella for a while and I thought I had lost him when he suddenly hopped up on this bush and I snapped a few quick shots.

xylogx,

Killing Nazis

Good thing I don’t have to worry about that ever happening IRL…

xylogx,

I knew the story of John Lasseter, but I never knew Ed Catmull’s role in Pixar. He was the tech guy who turned into the pragmatic leader.

Lots of good info on the early days of tech, interactions with Steve Jobs and really insightful advice on how to nurture creativity.

xylogx,
