What's also incredible is the lack of government action on crypto. I mean, if something like crypto happened in the 60s, you can bet countries like the US would've banned "owning it" just like they did with gold.
Much much easier to ban a physical item like gold than crypto. Trying to ban crypto is like trying to ban p2p file sharing, except with much more serious implications as it would also kill a country's presence and innovation in the industry.
The 2nd and 3rd results when searching on telegram for my home city are groups dedicated to taking "perverted" pictures of women, without their consent, in that city.
Ok, we know sitting is bad for you, but entire swaths of the economy depend on people sitting for long times to do their jobs, so we as a collective society will not do anything about this as profits will go down as a result of adopting measures to prevent people from sitting for long periods of time.
Do we really need to be sitting to do the jobs? One of my favorite conference rooms in my office has a desk that’s perfect height for standing but also comes with high chairs for those who don’t want to stand. Unless the meeting is > 1hr I usually prefer to stand the entire time.
I also find standing is better for collaborative meetings - I find im much more open to ideation while standing/moving.
If those kinds of meeting room were standard perhaps it would bring the numbers down.
perhaps vigorous exercise in the form of running from police, throwing molotov cocktails, and hand to hand fighting their shiny AI overlords robot assassins would keep them in better shape?
Right now the most basic USB-C Yubico Key-Dongle goes for around $80 (considering taxes and shipping in Europe). As yubico state themselves, you really need 2 dongles just in case.
Most people are not paying $160 for this, period, when 2FA and passkeys are a "good enough" thing.
Passkeys are more than good enough. Software keys are indistinguishable from hardware keys in the context of credential phishing. Both kinds of keys have the same weaknesses, too, e.g. OAuth phishing (keys do nothing) and DNS hijacking (keys degrade to the same security value as OTP).
Other threat models (malware, physical access) are a different story, of course.
A Pi Pico is around $3, you could see if there are any solutions out there that can turn it into a security key. (though at that point, perhaps just wait for KeePassXC FIDO/U2F support)
Especially when they have a phone that is secured well enough. As long as the EU can keep itself from meddling away the security in their special well intended way, of course.
