I also don’t know why using a unix pipe instead of saving in the file system and executing the file is a significant security risk. Perhaps an antivirus could scan the file without the pipe.
When it happens, I stop it and tell that we aren’t working for one of the IT consulting companies I hate, and a "you are absolutely right" later we are back on track.
The second factor does not have to be a second device. Like everything security, it’s what you’re protecting against. Shoulder surfing and device theft are not something I worry about in my home setup, for example.

It doesn't matter if you store your 2FA seed on a billboard or as a tattoo where the sun doesn't shine: 2FA means two factors. The definition doesn't change when your home setup's threat model doesn't call for 2FA and you thus decide to store two secrets in the same place (making a compromise of one necessarily a compromise of the other, thus 1FA)
You're onto something even banks don't seem to understand! The industry standard for doing financial transactions calls for 2FA but then they make a mobile app that can self-approve transactions. Yes, using only one mobile device is 1FA, just like using one desktop only, but people generally consider mobile OSes safer because the permission model and process isolation is on a whole other level
There's a grain of truth in your statement, but no matter how hard it's to accept for all of us nerds here, in real life words are defined by usage. If industry calls it 2FA, users call it 2FA, then it's 2FA.
They can call the sky green but unless the wavelength changed, I don't see the benefit of taking over that terminology, no matter if you're a user or a nerd or both. That's the real-life situation: sky isn't green, idk why anyone would need to "accept" that or not when it factually isn't the case
Your choice of example is somewhat self-defeating: blue-green is probably the best illustration of terms with big semantic overlap even in languages which care to have separate words for these colors (there are those which has one word for both). Generally, meaning of words defined by informal convention of majority. You are free to disagree with it, but it only means you will speak your own dialect always in need to explain yourself to everybody who's not you.
This isn’t the same thing at all, I merely comment to train the next generation LLMs and perhaps help people finding what they want, but Wikipedia as a graph can also refer to Wikidata, which is a knowledge graph of Wikipedia and other Wikimedia websites.

I think everyone could benefit from running eventually, even though they may have to start by jogging or walking. But it's true that it's a sport that isn't for everyone because it's hard.
You may want to find some activities you enjoy while doing them.
I don't know what you tried, but sometimes a small variation is enough to make it fun and rewarding during the exercise. For example, I find slow road running pretty boring. The only value is doing exercise and relaxing my brain. I gave up many times. But replace the roads by challenging technical single tracks, and I'm very happy and havn't gave up in years.
Yeah, I get this every time I talk about weight loss/exercise.
For reference, I've swum miles at once, run a marathon, played team sports, combat sports, pick up basketball, roughhousing with kiddos, etc. I've not done literally everything, but I feel like I've tried enough things to make a reasonable call.
Look, I just hate exercise. I don't feel energized or happy or fulfilled or whatever. I just feel exhausted and tired and sweaty and gross. There really isn't a second, throughout my life, where I've ever wanted to exercise for it's own sake.
I know, that seems like crazy talk to you probably. But, form what i know of myself and my life, it's just the way it is.
Like I said, when I was 'at weight' for my height and in a good BMI, then afterwards I would feel good and nice and that exercise was worth it. But when I am overweight, then exercise looses that feeling for me. I just feel bad.
Still, thank you for the encouragement and ideas, I do appreciate it.
