The beauty of it being on Android is Google Assistant must be enabled and monitoring calls, rather than this feature being built into the OS.
- Comment on Shit, I'd pay $9 7 hours ago:
Oh I never said it was “new”, but its really nice to have.
- Comment on Shit, I'd pay $9 9 hours ago:
iOS has call screening now and it is really fucking nice.
Calling from an unknown number that isn’t on my contacts list? You have to listen to Siri ask whats the purpose of your call, and then Siri will let me know your response. Then, if available to answer based on how you responded, ill swipe to join the call.

If its an Android or iOS phone, then it will prompt for a password or pin after a few failed fingerprint scans.
Fingerprint is just there for convenience, but you can get around it in most cases.

If its an authenticator app, then its password based, as ultimately the password or pin is needed to unlock the phone.
If its a standalone authenticator device, then yes thats MFA. But like I said, its the most expensive option since you would have to purchase devices.
- Comment on Are there any reputable cybersecurity experts that I could just email them to ask for free advice? 2 weeks ago:
Fingerprint with an RFID badge is MFA with no passwords.
Something you have and something you are is the most expensive MFA combination, which is why it isn’t common.

Spanish isn’t the native language. Not sure how that applies at all.
- Comment on Why have so many services started using single-factor passwordless authentication in the last little while? 3 months ago:
And one little lapse in not paying a cell phone bill can cause you to lose your phone number, which then means you can no longer authenticate.

What does speaking English have to do with New York being an American city? English isn’t the native tongue, its the colonized tongue.

- Comment on Yes, Apple. This is exactly what I wanted *facepalm* 4 months ago:
Yea but its a search. If you wanted a shortcut to the app, maybe pin it to your dock so its easier to access. If its a search, i would want all relevant items to appear.
- Comment on Yes, Apple. This is exactly what I wanted *facepalm* 4 months ago:
Whats the issue here? You can store notes in other internet accounts other than apple accounts. Its a relevant search result IMO.

If you use systemd, mkinitio and sbctl can sign it all for you automatically during updates.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
Until its concealing its behavior by modifying files or executing processes without your knowledge, then it isn’t a rootkit. They tell you what it does, and they get your permission to install it.
Its anti cheat software that monitors your system and kernel. Not a rootkit.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
Would you enable secure boot even if you’re not installing bf6?
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
I believe you are missing my point
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
Sounds like these game studios are creating horrible software on a horrible OS, but this anti cheat is still not modifying the kernel, and secure boot also is not a rootkit.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
My point stands. The anti cheat doesn’t modify your kernel though. Its not a rootkit.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
Secure boot won’t let your kernel be modified though.
Their anti cheat software just makes sure that you haven’t tampered with the kernel at all. It just monitors for any changes after the system has booted.
It does not modify your kernel.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 dev apologizes for requiring Secure Boot to power anti-cheat tools 5 months ago:
Are people still parroting that secure boot is a rootkit, even though its actually designed to prevent root kits from being installed?
- Comment on 5 months ago:
You don’t have to rigorously slow down though. Just ease it into existence. Its not a race. It might take a few seconds to replace that space, but thats fine. You don’t even need to hit the brakes 95% of the time. Just go a mph or two slower and let it balloon out over time.
The person behind you can usually recognize that someone just whipped out in front of you and will give you some grace time to adjust.
And keep in mind, if someone is merging into your lane, then whatever lane they came from now has additional space, which lets those lanes work better. Its a win win.
- Comment on 5 months ago:
If they merge in your lane and then brake, then thats on them, not you. Yes, you will have to brake, but its not you that is being the bad driver. Just create more space between you and the car in front of you again.
You could also look into merging into a different lane temporarily until space is restored.
- Comment on 5 months ago:
If all these people are merging in front of you, then the adjacent lanes are moving a lot better, which is helpful for traffic. Less braking is the goal, and if 2 or more lanes aren’t braking as much because you left some space in front of you, then traffic should flow much better.
- Comment on 5 months ago:
You don’t have to brake and maintain a hard 3 seconds between gap. Just let off the gas a bit let it slowly restore itself. That gap is there so cars can move in and out as freely as they need.
- Comment on 5 months ago:
Yeah ideally you put 3 seconds between you and the car in front of you. Gives a nice, springy cushion.
- Comment on Parental controls on children’s tech devices are out of touch with child’s play 5 months ago:
They are going to be introduced to it, regardless if you manage their devices or not. If they are socializing at all, they will be introduced toit. But if their friends come over to your home, and your network doesn’t have any kind of safeguards, Then you might be enabling their friends to influence your child in ways that are not appropriate right in front of you.
I do agree with what you’re saying, but I think there’s a way to do both methods. It could be something that is gradually introduced insteadof just straight up opening Pandora’s box for them.
