Typically, people aren’t always bored, because otherwise, you are basically emotionally flat and depressed and soon will be suicidal. Have you seen kids that say they are bored? It just means they are not doing anything that interest them.

To get “unbored”, you most likely need to be doing something that is fun, and/or meaningful, and/or enjoyable, and/or worthy, and/or essential to survival (in a way, people who are bored may be having it too easy). It may be better to be doing something productive, personally or socially, than doing something just addictive.

Even being still meditating is doing something (like actively paying attention to the breath).

There are two types of passkey. Syncable and device-bound. (see https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys/). Theoretically, the device-bound passkeys never leave the device and users don’t have any access to it except to use it for authentication. The syncable type will first and foremost be synced by the platforms themselves (Google, Microsoft, and Apple), but eventually the 3rd-party password managers will be allowed to be sync providers, but possibly only on newly-released OSes.

As far as I know, the passkey implementations currently on Android and Windows are device-bound; they are not synced to the cloud.

It works for Google, Adobe, and Github for me, on Firefox; those are all the sites I use that support passkeys. It even works with Firefox on Android 13.

Do you have Windows hello enabled? You may want to investigate this more.

This is from the horse’s mouth: https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys/

It is a FIDO alliance protocol. This is meant to replace/supplement password, not as 2FA. The sites I use that implement it, Google, Adobe, and Github use it to supplant both the password and 2FA. Cool thing about it is more less: 1) unphishable 2) doesn’t matter if the website’s passphrase data leaks.

Good question. My bad.

And Tiktok!

Firefox ESR 102.15 & windows 11 (Hello) seem to work fine.

Yeah, neither seems likely any time soon.

Snapdragon 4 Gen 2

I dislike my apps being dropped by the OS at 8GB, so I personally think a 2GB upgrade is worth it. 128GB would be enough for me too, though. Overall, I think 6GB is usable, but I personally would upgrade.

Yeah, it spreads to everybody that is a “threat” to the power that be.

Thx. You don’t seem to be the only one.

In July 2022, Charlie Osborne of ZDNet suggested that individuals who suspect a Pegasus infection use a secondary device with GrapheneOS for secure communication.

Well, that’s most terrifying. Can you do anything about it except not using smartphones?

Thanks for sharing, but I don’t know since I don’t own it.

It’s not mine. 😅

Yeah, no Google either. I heard Apple is currently spending over a million dollar a day for AI training. Soon, you’ll have something beyond Siri.

I wonder if, for Meta, being open-sourced wouldn’t fit the company with the rest. Also, for now, it looks like a publicity stunt with no real teeth. Those more substantial AI companies maybe holding out for more favorable treatments.

Here’s mine: Dreaming of an Organic World.

Regarding the US reception, I don’t know. 🤷‍♂️ But,

The 4G has this Xioami spec:

• 2G: GSM: 850 900 1800 1900MHz

• 3G: WCDMA:1/5/8

• 4G: LTE FDD:1/3/5/7/8/20/28

• 4G: LTE TDD:38/40/41

The 5G has this Xioami spec:

• 2G: GSM: 850 900 1800 1900MHz

• 3G: WCDMA:1/2/4/5/8

• 4G: LTE FDD:1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20/28/32

• 4G: LTE TDD:38/40/41

• 5G: n1/3/5/7/8/20/28/38/40/41/77/78

So, for connectivity, 5G is the way to go.
