Beehaw Update Tip: You can now enable 2FA on your beehaw account! in c/chat@beehaw.org

It’s not implemented well because it adds it to your account immediately without needing to confirm the code. This means if the user doesn’t know what they’re doing they could add 2FA and not copy the code correctly to their password manager resulting in a lockout.

    Beehaw Update Tip: You can now enable 2FA on your beehaw account! (beehaw.org)
     

    If you go into your account settings you'll see a shiny new 2FA setup option. Once you check the box and reload there will be a button to there link your default 2FA application.

    Now for Safari users on macOS who don't use Apple Keychain for your 2FA but rather a 3rd party app like 1Password or Bitwarden things are a little tricky. In order to get around linking it directly to Keychain you can right click the 2FA link and choose "inspect element." Scroll down slightly and you'll see that element highlighted in the new element window. Right click the highlighted area and select "copy link." That's the 2FA code which you can then paste in any 3rd party password manager.

    Before algorithms we all used hashtags. Hashtags were very important to Twitter in the before times. That’s how you find topics on mastodon. I have columns set with specific hashtag sets so I can quickly glance at toots about horror movies, birds, retrogaming, etc…

    You can also follow hashtags directly in your home feed just like Twitter topics.

    It’s really not a difficult thing at all, but people are so addicted to Twitter they always give a halfassed attempt at switching before throwing up their hands.

    • Florida Bathroom Ban Now In Effect: Enforcement Likely To Be A Disaster in c/lgbtq_plus@beehaw.org
    [–] 2 points 3 years ago

    Umm what the actual fuck? Did Florida just lowkey ban all trans people from their state? How is this constitutional? How do you even say someone is trans when they have an updated birth certificate ffs? This is pure insanity.

    Reddit feels like it's gone back to 100% normalcy already. Was the protest a failure? (beehaw.org)
     

    I was looking at reddit today, and the front-page felt like nothing happened. I scrolled and scrolled and scrolled and clicked into comments. Everything is popping off buzzing with activity. All the subreddits I was subscribed to that went dark are now back up and business as usual.

    I knew we were a minority, but I didn't expect this level of apathy. It feels like Spez was 100% right and this did in fact blow over. What's your take on it it? I didn't expect Reddit to immediately be a failure, but man I guess I expected a bigger impact than that.

    Nostalgia: The Very First Android Phone (beehaw.org)
     

    Sure, the very first iPhone released today, but does anyone remember the first Android smartphone?

    In October of 1998 HTC’s T-Mobile G1, or HTC Dream as it’s known outside the U.S would launch being the first phone with the Android OS. The G1 was priced at $179 — which was pretty affordable even in those days — and featured top-of-the-line specs including a Qualcomm MSM7201A processor, 192MB of RAM, and 256MB of internal storage (expandable up to 16GB). It also stocked a 3.15MP rear camera, and a 1,150mAh battery.
