A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Thanks for that link. I'm going to read up on passkeys, because I clearly don't grok the concept yet.

yeah, me neither. I'm yet to figure out whether it's actually better better, or "we companies say it's better" better, heh.

https://www.passkeys.io/ is a site that lets you try them. My phone is now the holder of a vital key, and my laptop will talk to my phone to see if I can login. No idea what happens if I change phones.
