uBlock Origin (the ad blocker) does a really good job at blocking ClickFix attacks (where user is encouraged to paste commands into Run box). They added support in July and have been refining rules.

@nazgul I know the article is sponsored. I don't care. The point is that it's pointing out that the passkeys ecosystem is not the sunshine and roses world the promoters of passkeys claim. I've already had to deal with many ordinary people who accepted passkey prompts and got locked out as a result! Horrific! Some sites push these in very deceptive ways, like making it look like a passkey was already created when actually it hasn't been and the option to avoid this is tiny and deceptively worded. People with single devices to access the Net are particularly at risk. Some implementations, like Google's terrible one, give any device compromise total access to all your accounts controlled by passkeys, since there's no additional authentication layers. I've discussed this directly with the relevant people at G. Their view, as I interpret it, is that if some users get screwed by this it just doesn't matter. Unfortunately, that's always been the case with Google's account methodologies, particularly account recovery.

I have a question, is there any app for windows that lets you make alarms and have custom sounds for them? just curious,

@killyourfm that blue sky looks promising! We definitely will try to enjoy ourselves. We’re thinking about taking a day trip to the coastline today. Gotta enjoy before diving back into the summer Texas heat 🫠

@farah Yes indeed

We often describe the epidemiological transition as a shift from infectious diseases to #NCDs. This analysis suggests a more useful framing: increasing returns to preventing, delaying and managing ageing-related #diseases

We Mastodon users have done it again!

After 10,000 views of my latest video, the stats show that the external viewers arrive from

Mastodon 50 %
Facebook 6 %
Bluesky 2 %
Threads 0.4 %

When there is an algorithm, corporations decide whether posts with links to competing platforms like YouTube are visible to other users.

When there is no algorithm, we the users decide what is boosted.

Choose Mastodon! ♥️🐘

This guy in SF makes some of the best baklava I've had anywhere in the world (incl in Turkey, Syria, Lebanon..)

Here he's being interviewed about how he does what he does, and how it's hard doing something so labor-intensive in a city flush with AI money

Everything he does (from the flour he uses to the types of pistachios) is extremely obsessive, every time I have some I am very thankful to people like him.
