Unintentional trick question :) SSH can use a ton of different crypto, so can passkeys (The actual Fido Spec if you want to read about it is webAuthn).

While they both support RSA, The WebAuthn default appears to be RFC-8152 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8152 in an attempt to try to keep the sizes down.

Tightrope walkin'

Do you alienate the growing masses of people backing Palestine or alienate the organized association that has deep tendrils into finance, media, lobbying, and entertainment and is more than ready to take you out?

You need them all to get in, but even after you're in, you STILL have to deal with AIPAC.

Not until it's affecting them directly, and even then...

no idea how much backlash

That's not to say they didn't expect backlash, they fully expected some, they simply didn't do a field study to see how bad it was going to be. Actually pretty common in the industry. Thow shit against the wall, see how bad the outcome is, discount that against profit. :)

Now, now, they didn't logic themselves into this.... They're sure as hell not going to logic themselves out of it.

Didn't we have armed people claiming to be hunting down FEMA relief people?

1. You care about your baby and your vacation. Being excited to share that with other people is normal, and when you share something you're excited about with other people, it feels good; you get a serotonin boost and relive it in your mind. That process requires two people. It's a social contract. The other person is going to get relatively little out of the situation, but perhaps they get a little nostalgia recounting their own experiences and thinking back to their own kids. You should play along and ask questions because it makes them feel good, and later on, when you're jazzed about something, they might return the favor.

2. When someone is excited to recount a vacation abroad, it's a learning experience. Where did you go? What did you like? How were the people? What was hard about it? How much did it cost? Assuming you get to travel, it might give you helpful information that will make you more at ease with making your own plans.

3. Children: When you have them, most people get rewired a little. You go from OH KILL ME NOW, THERE'S A CRYING BABY ON THE PLANE to, ohh god, she must be miserable scared and confused, somebody snuggle that baby. When I see my coworker's baby, I get a wave of feelings/memories from when I cradled my own.

I think I get your frustration, and it echoes my own from years ago. My recommendation is to learn to play social the games. It doesn't take as long as it feels like it will out of your day to act compassionate. Making those connections with people and how those people see you is important. It opens opportunities and can give you comfort and give them greater patience with you when you need them to be patient. You might also find that moving through the motions strengthens your empathy.

It's a bit of math, split into two pieces.

You hand out one piece, that's the public key. It's tiny and simple.

You keep the other piece, that's the private key. It's long and complex.

The public key can scramble data that only the large piece can unscramble.

The private key can create a piece of data that only the public key can verify.

In practice, these keys can be kept in a database or a file, and they can be held in a hardware security key (yubi/fido). They can be stored on your phone, in Bitwarden, and just about anywhere that keeps passwords, they're really just a few thousand bytes of data.

In many cases, You can store them in your phone's private password storage, then when you log into a website, it will trigger a popup on your phone to authorize your login, so you don't even have to keep them on the computer you're using to access the secured site. Most of the implementations require you to have a biometric component. You need to face scan, fingerprint scan, or, worst case, use a password to unlock/verify the passkey on the device.

The upside here is that the keys are unique to every site. The public key is completely safe to hand out to everyone, it can't be reverse engineered. This means that websites can't leak your login credentials in any meaningful way. edit: Also since you're using math to change a piece of data, it's impervious to a replay attack and the communication even unencrypted would be reasonably safe even if someone was actively reading it.

As far as storing for loss, I'd consider regenerating them. I prefer using a password manager that stores them, that way my phone/computers all have access to the same keys.

11 losses support for 7th gen or earlier and non-TPM enabled equipment.

You might still be able to find something newer that lacks TPM.

Alternatively, we don't really know why they chose 7th gen as the cutoff for sure. It is quite possible that they're just going by Intel's own support structure. Until dropped support for 7th gen due to an age out scenario so it's absolutely possible that in another couple of years still drop support for 8th gen.

Yeah, chaos crops up in linear systems sometimes in unexpected places.

There are a couple of scientific papers on it, and at least one textbook. Even at that I'm not sure it's a well-accepted theory, but the idea suits me.

Ubisoft makes a beautiful game with an incredibly well-known IP. They flesh out characters and small cities with loads of detail. Then, they make the entire gameplay one repetitive takedown move and hours of driving back and forth between points.

Remote work didn't do this; underfunding the project did. Bringing people back to the offices will only result in losing their best staff.

7th gen Intel laptops with GPUs are already really cheap

Only if they go together.
