A physical token only authenticates itself as “something you have” if there’s no way to extract the key from it. In practice non-hardcore deployments usually have a backup procedure but in principle, if you want multiple tokens, they should have separate keys. What you’re asking in simplest form involves storing the key on a server where it can potentially spill in a server breach or the like. If the key protects something very valuable, that can be dangerous. If it’s for your old Reddit account, you might decide to do it anyway.

It’s considered bad form to do what you’re asking but most 2fa apps have a backup restore scheme now. Is that enough?

It’s hard to understand the purpose of this. The difficulty of the project (i.e. complexity of the web) is the real problem that needs solving. We don’t need another fork of the browser-verse. We need a fork of the web itself.

How are they going to produce these patches if microsoft is no longer releasing them?

First there were glassholes. Now we’ll have earworms?

It’s a trade off between video quality and bandwidth but you can set the ffmpeg parameters to the bandwidth you want, more or less. If you have 2mbits up you can do ok. Motion detection can help if it’s for security and not much is happening most of the time.

Do I want to know what opensea is?

It depends. What kind of beer?

If you have enough upload bandwidth I guess you don’t need the vps.

Who is he? What does he stream about? Is he really a doctor?

It always seems simplest to do this stuff with raspberry pi cameras or cheap webcams, and wired networks if feasible. Then use ffmpeg and icecast to stream through a VPS. Anything made as a consumer product is likely a shambles of crap software and security holes.

I’ve never heard of this guy but I’m not very attentive to streamer drama. Is this significant beyond there now being N+1 known bozos in the world instead of N?

Nobody remembers diceware?

Mozilla, you’re drunk. Go home and go to bed.

Do you want something that also has CDN like Cloudflare? Bunny.net is good, but way more expensive than a cheap VPS if you use a lot of traffic.

The biggest demands will come from the browser and its media players, not the OS. An i5 with 4gb RAM will be ok. Anything less will be marginal or worse. The modern web sucks. Did you know that mobile phones are starting to come with cooling fans? OMG.

Hardy har har. I have a saved password on my phone and I want to use it on my laptop. This happens now and then but not often enough to want to introduce another software dependency and its security problems. It’s a password (randomly generated, but still), not War And Peace. Simple enough-- read it off the phone and type it into the laptop, but no. They used a font that makes some characters indistinguishable, there is a 2 year old open ticket to fix it, and you sit there making wisecracks. Found the issue:

Have you ever compiled Firefox? If not, it’s best not to suggest that to others. It’s not for the faint of heart.

Anyway the usual fixed width fonts like Courier work, or they could put it in about:config.

I will have to check whether the font in the address bar has the same issue (edit: yes it does). But the reason the “make password visible” feature exists at all (instead of just “copy password to clipboard”) is to make the password readable by eyeball. It fails to do that. That failure is why there is an open Bugzilla ticket. If it worked properly, there would be no ticket or it would have been closed. But making it work is treated as an enhancement rather than a fix. Gack.

Also, pasting the password into the address bar drops it into the search system and maybe leaks it, who knows. Not a good idea.

The idea is to be able to read the password with your eyeballs, so you can type it into another computer. This fails.
