Nah, any decent password manager or security application can manage multi-factor security credentials of any kind without lock-out due to phone loss.
Password authentication is beyond primitive by offering too many avenues of attack: the full secret is transmitted & shared. Passkeys, client certificates, OTP don’t transmit the secret key. Passkeys & client certificates authentication never share a secret key, so the server can’t expose it.
Just print out the word “not”, wedge it into the sign: problem solved.
The lesson here is don’t troll these idiots
Maybe the lesson is to troll harder until they legislate themselves into ruin?
It doesn’t turn me on that much
That much?
Yes, that piece refers to the same event.
I feel like when I said, “Elon has been a public Nazi for a few years now,” what you heard was, “the general public has known Elon is a Nazi for a few years now.”
Were you trying to imply moral culpability for people “buying their own coffin from a Nazi” or not? Moral culpability only works if they reasonably would have known, so that “buying it” is a choice eligible for moral consideration.
If you’re merely observing the situation without moral consideration to point out gee, that’s ironic, then I’m forced to agree: that is ironic. However, you seem to be claiming more than that with the word excuse.
if you have a Model 3, you may have an excuse, but if you have a Cyberdump, you have no excuse
Thus, for your claim to work they had to be aware, and since we know nothing about them, we can only reasonably expect they knew if the general public knew. So, I don’t think I misunderstood you.
Yes, maga idiots have excused his behavior for years
Excused? No, they do the same and have for years. Feeding into Nazi conspiracy theories & agreeing with Nazis is typical MAGA behavior.
Remember Pizza Gate & the adrenochrome conspiracy? Both have roots in old antisemitic conspiracies of Jews consuming the blood of sacrificed children, though I doubt MAGA conspiracists know that.
Musk had a firm reason to know he was agreeing with a Nazi: the tweet he agreed with was answering a challenge for “cowards” posting “Hitler was right” to explain themselves. Even so, agreeing with Nazi conspiracies doesn’t amount to essentials that define Nazi: white supremacy, advocating for genocide & an ethnostate, etc. It doesn’t surprise me that people often see it as more MAGA idiocy similar to Trump saying both sides include “some very fine people”.
until after much of this behavior had already been very public
I agree it was public. I also submit that the general public probably saw it as MAGA instead of Nazi if they paid attention at all.
When people shop for a car, the company’s CEO may not be their top consideration if any. In the case of a Cyberflop, they may be looking at the environment, self-driving features, or fall for marketing gimmicks & believe they’re buying the greatest innovation.
Also, it’s just a fucking awful truck.
Totally. For that alone, they deserve all the blame for getting that deathtrap.
Let’s just forget this minor disagreement. That car’s a piece of shit. Fuck that car.
Not exactly a prominent headline & I don’t see a transcript. The 16-page sources documents links to online references including of a large number of tweets, several articles not regarding Musk, and some news articles on Musk. This is quite a bit to wade through. It’d be better to name clear, prominent headlines as I suggested before. Nonetheless, I’ll glance through.
The articles I’ve glanced through cover his descent into right-wing extremism on X, suspensions of journalists’ accounts, overtures to Putin & Trump. They cover criticism by advertisers & special interests of Musk’s tolerance for the spread of hate speech on X. There was that episode when Musk agreed with a post making a veiled reference to the antisemitic Great Replacement conspiracy theory, which led to denunciations by the ADL, advertisers pulling out, and Musk responding by posting objections to antisemitism & to organizations that push “racism of any kind” and by paying visits to Israel & Auschwitz.
Most of these could be construed as forgettable online MAGA mayhem. While that last episode drew headlines, rather than pin Musk down as a Nazi, a casual observer could easily discount it as online outrage over a MAGA idiot who falls for conspiracy bullshit & rolls that back. They could do that right before they easily forget it.
I don’t deny the conduct is troubling. However, these online distractions don’t exactly make memorable, prominent headlines that conclusively pin Musk down as a Nazi to the casual public. They don’t capture the public’s attention as clearly as Musk’s double Nazi salute.
If you could point out such a headline that the people in the collision would have known before they purchased the vehicle, then I’d concede your point, but at the moment I don’t see it.
MAGA idiot: sure.
Nazi years ago: name high profile headlines years ago that would have made that apparent to the casual public, and not only to obsessive social media dwellers heaping constant attention on his every move. Until the double Nazi salute, I doubt most people had any idea.
The Highway Patrol’s investigation into a November Cybertruck crash
Were they supposed to know that with their time machine or divine it through the occult?
Will the White House automotive showcase be the next proud White House tradition?
Even as a kid, I never understood kids’ fascination with stickers. What’s so cool about a drawing on adhesive paper? I thought.
Self-cleaning oven setting: complimentary.
was watching right-wing influencers
At first, I was thinking stake-out and thought great, someone needs to keep an eye on those assholes, too bad they’re a shitty driver.
permanently
How permanently? Luigi?
It’s not that deep. Lots of teenagers do edgy stuff just because it’s edgy and not allowed.
Thank goodness we can arrest them for it. Imagine the objective harm & deprivation of rights or peaceful access to opportunities or resources that teenage edginess causes to society. Right?
the NTR and “guy doing the rape”
Not familiar with that. I’m very curious what kind of hentai you were watching.
I haven’t watched hentai in a while (since late 90s, early 2000s). I primarily remember the more conspicuous, taboo content that probably drew more attention of foreign audiences: incest, rape, tentacles, pedophilia, coprophilia, gore, vore, etc. I’m sure there was much gentler stuff too, but taboo seemed to get the most reaction.
The (direct) harm principle of free speech has been recognized since at least J S Mill. It’s reflected in legal limitations on incitement of imminent lawless action (falsely shouting fire); incitement of violence; defamation; discriminatory acts that objectively deprive peaceful access to rights, opportunities, or resources we are entitled to. It does not restrict merely offensive conduct that bothers.
Are you referring to harassment in the looser sense of merely irritating conduct or in the stricter sense of personally targeted conduct that is unwelcome & objectively harms or deprives peaceful access as mentioned before (often through persistence)? We don’t have a right not to be offended.
Freedom of speech is specifically for speech we dislike including much that you listed. It’s also for speech to oppose that, which could be taken much further instead of trying to compromise it.
People who support only “free speech” they agree with don’t support free speech at all. They either never understood free speech, or believe it’s not worth it, thus give it away to the authoritarians exactly like I criticized.
Then the hentai thing is insane how the rape theme took over.
It took over? What were those tentacle monsters doing? Loving tenderly?
I was looking into getting a Thor’s Hammer tattoo years ago
Couldn’t a “fuck Nazis” message somewhere clarify that?
People care more about civility than fascism.
It’s pathetic how true that feels.
The number of times I’ve seen screencaptures of text on a coding job that makes me think/say “you’re a coder, I’m a coder, you know we’ll need this as text, so what the fuck is wrong with you?” is too many.
Images of text happen way too often everywhere including lemmy. And they grace us without alt text like they’re going out of their way to fuck us & people with accessibility needs especially hard.
