I use phone every day at office so I don't need to get the wallet out of my jacket when going to the canteen to buy lunch. It's literally the reason I started using my phone to pay. Too many times I forgot my card...

Easily achievable if you only take calls in working hours. Then all working hours will have more than average calls per hour for a day.

It's worth adding I greatly prefer MS Auth style authentication, since I don't have to find the right entry to read the Auth code and then write it on the other computer. Instead MS pops a notification and you either type or select the right number, verify with fingerprint and done. Much more convenient.

It often tells you what you login into and where you are attempt to log in from, so it's a few extra layers of security for those that have that awareness to check those details.

Played a lot of rainbow six siege, where you have to shoot those 360° security cameras when you are attacking. So, now I'm trained to spot those on instinct.

Pretty much anything in katakana in Japan is loanwords.

Very interesting about flew markets though, Norway is the same as Sweden here.

I disabled my adblock for Twitter to see a update about game server maintenance. It showed me random posts, nothing from this year. Literally unusable site when you can't even see the latest tweets. Had to have other people tell me maintenance was extended...

I'm in the MPC-HC gang on Windows. Just so much more practical than other players. The main selling point was that full-screen the controls go away once you move the cursor off them, it was amazing. And no waiting for subs to be processed like VLC had to back then, never turned back so don't know if that is still a thing.

At least LCD is mostly temporary according to that article.

But pixels do degrade over time, not sure if it counts as burn-in though.

Where does this even come from, passwords are increasingly insecure and adding another factor, especially authenticator codes, doesn't even require you to give up a single new piece of personal information. The entire thing is just adding a local code that your program of choice remembers and uses to generate the one-time password. No data collection, no proprietary software. Other areas might be doing bad shit for all I know, but this change is entirely a forced security measure because people are too bad at passwords.

After seing the frequent attempted logins on my Microsoft account, I'm "just" a lucky guess away from losing it if I do not have another thing blocking access.
