  • This assumes a pin is used, which according to the WebAuthn wikipedia page is not generally the case:

    The illustrated flow relies on PIN-based user verification, which, in terms of usability, is only a modest improvement over ordinary password authentication. In practice, the use of biometrics for user verification can improve the usability of WebAuthn.

    The way I read this, a pin is even too much for the end-user and biometrics replace it for usability.


  • Can someone explain to me how using biometrics rather than a password/pin to protect from unauthorized access to your passkeys doesn’t violate the “something you have” and “something you know” principle of multi-factor authorization? Most of these implementations seem squarely geared at user convenience at the cost of actual security.


  • I would say this is a little too pessimistic. Legislation in the EU and California have both forced tech companies hands, it’s why we can download all our data and delete all our data (supposedly, doubtful in reality) on the large tech platforms. The issue I see is getting legislation that attaches itself to a standard controlled by the W3C. You are right that it won’t be something done by the US federal government though.










  • I’m just replying to the “quality and cost” part of your post, which are inherently paired. Yes some products just don’t exist being made in the US, but if the store has a product that costs twice as much made domestically sitting next to a foreign product of the same or close enough quality, the price alone will dictate which they choose. This is often why domestically made versions of products aren’t available without a special order (which is even more expensive) and where tariffs are supposed to be used.

    Disclaimer: I have no experience with Bazzite. A quick web search shows that it’s a distro based on Fedora Atomic. That being said, if you did everything according to the documentation, this is probably a bug that should be raised with the developers.

    The first line states /init: error while loading shared libraries: libsystemd-core-256.11.1-fc41.so: c. This is basically the issue, for whatever reason the shared library for systemd (which if being used, is basically the backbone to your systems startup) isn’t available. The next place I would look is whatever tool/command you use to upgrade/build your system, this might of spit out an error related to why this library could not be built or why it’s inaccessible on the next boot. If the solution isn’t obvious from those logs, I would report this to the distro developers as a ticket in their bug tracker.

    As to look at the positives, you have discovered the beauty of immutable/atomic distros. You can just go back to the working version instead of cussing at your PC.


  • I completely agree that it needs to be amazon-wide. But the reality is it’s a lot easier to close down some nameless warehouse in the area when you can still deliver to your customers out of another nameless warehouse. It’s a lot harder to shut down a store that customers expect to exist and remain where it is. I do think we think alike in the fact that unionization can stem from their customer facing properties into their “business” properties that are hidden from the public.
