Is it possible to get biometrics working on a flathub app?

I just like keeping stuff plugged into one side so that I can rest the edge of the other side against my leg without having to worry about bending devices

I don’t believe any single part of this, it just can’t be true

I really hate the use of quotes “for emphasis”

Interesting, I did not know how widely used the 2.4GHz band is, thanks for correcting me!

That’s the same frequency as one of the main Wi-Fi bands, I would imagine they’re probably just reusing that technology for this communication

What are the other two?

It doesn’t help our friends in the EU, but I’m hopeful that the CFPB’s “Open Banking” rules might actually make it possible to do this with an open source product with OAuth and common APIs rather than these aggregators that are just web scraping your bank.

I’ve heard others recommend Low End Box before but I have no experience, so do some due diligence before selecting any of these!

I gotta disagree with you there, my online life is by far more convenient now that I have it all organized and stored in a password manager. So much less to remember and so many fewer roadblocks now that I don’t have to remember usernames and passwords.

Even my mom swears by how much more convenient it is to have a password manager and she’s not what you would call “tech savvy”

This is a pretty terrible take… if you take just a little bit of time to set up a password manager and use the browser plugin it is all just one password away. I actively seek out additional 2FA because it’s just simple and seamless, where my password manager will put the TOTP code on my clipboard ready to paste, or it’ll automatically pop up when the site asks for a passkey (like Google, referenced in the article).

Just sounds like this dude is whining about a problem that he doesn’t want to solve for himself.

Yep, I live in the south and we will regularly (several times a year) drive 300 miles or more to visit the various families.

I started with the 2020 tutorial from these guys. They’ve updated it a few times through the years so I can’t speak to how good the new version is, but I’m sure it’s probably plenty to get started.

After I followed this guide, I’ve deviated significantly as I learned and started to do my own thing. It’s a great place to start and learn the basics of containerized applications and once you have that then you can host most things that are dockerized. All I need to do now to start up a new service is pull up the README on Docker Hub (or better yet, if LinuxServer.io has a container that does what I want to do, on their website), figure out what I want to do with the variables and any setup that needs to happen, and then I add it to my .yml and start it up!

I’ve got it all tracked now on GitHub so I can see what I’ve changed and when and if something were to go wrong I could revert back to a known-good configuration.

Absolutely no one would ever do such a thing

Thank God you did this, I couldn’t have handled it if you hadn’t

I think the reason why regular store bought gizmos won’t let you decrypt it is because content can require HDCP to make sure you don’t gain access to the data. If there were a device at Best Buy that just bypassed this, I think the DMCA and rights holders would come down hard on the seller.

I’ve heard of gizmos from shadier places may be able to decrypt the data but it’s likely because they’re acting outside of the law.
