• Playing with more user-friendly methods for multi-factor authentication

  FWIW 2FAS starts to show you the next code near the end of the window, this is very handy https://2fas.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Bitwarden Authenticator

  I personally switched to using 2FAS[0]. My favorite feature is that it comes with a browser extension that can automatically fill in the OTP on web forms, after approving the request on the phone app. [0] https://2fas.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: AWS registering MFA will be required in 29 days

  I'd go with number 2 unless you want to buy everyone a hardware token (option number 3). There are open source solutions (I've used https://2fas.com/ ) and very common solutions (Google Authenticator). You can even print out the QR code and put it in a secure location (safe, safe deposit box) as a break-glass in case everyone's phones cease functioning. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Flaw has Microsoft Authenticator overwriting MFA accounts, locking users out

  Try 2FAS - it works without an cloud account, can import from few other apps (sadly not from Microsoft one) and can export from and import to a file. Works on Android and iOS https://2fas.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Ente Auth: open-source Authy alternative for 2FA

  My hunt for an open source Authy took me to 2FAS, which has been fine. Any opinions on this offering? 2FAS — the Internet’s favorite open-source two-factor authenticator https://2fas.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Transfer a domain

  Thank you for your response. I admit I was lazy at first. I got a dodgy feeling when I did a renewal for one domain in August 2022, but I figured I would move it before the next renewal. Now cis.net is telling me that I would be in breach of the hosting contract that I first "signed" when I signed up for hosting via a cnet.com promotion back in 2020. Supposedly the contract renews at the same terms and I am not... Source: about 3 years ago

• Who in this group know DOS

  I still use dos today. especially when diagnosing network issues. Need to know you router IP address? start / run / type cmd and then ipconfig. It displays your ip address and that of your default gateway (your router). Then simply run a ping to an outside source. I ping cnet.com as I know they will respond. You can run a tracert to cnet.com and it will show your time between hops and where the issue may be... Source: about 3 years ago

• What is the best place to get unbiased news?

  Another website I remember scoring well was CNET.com, which was random, but a bonus if you're into tech stuff. In addition to tech stuff (which is of course their main bread & butter), they'll cover things going on in the news (ex: legislation, Covid, world news) as big things come up.

• Is a personal blog the best way to promote your Software Projects in 2022?

  I wonder about this too...because of the competitiveness of getting eyeballs on the internet--you need 200,000 impressions/view per day with Google AdSense to your site to make around $70K / year--I tend to think that it is very difficult to get your blog viewed, given how much traffic-driven websites really need the views. Thus, you should probably try to use a downloadable software website like amazon.com or... Source: almost 4 years ago
