I want to de-smartphone my life. I think I can mostly untangle myself except for one particular snag.

My 2FA codes are on my smartphone. For multiple reasons I don't want to move them all to Bitwarden. Ente looked promising until I checked the number of slop commits. YubiKey (the TOTP kind) is out of budget.

Any recommendations for migration?

I just found this user-agent in my web-server logs:

And look at that, a tool of the devil!

"Easily turn large sets of image urls to an image dataset. Can download, resize and package 100M urls in 20h on one machine."

Let me put it this way: I am not wishing you well, ye contributors to this project! You are building the weapons that are costing to hours and days of my life to defend against.

so i actually read yarvin's programming language screeds before i knew who the fuck he was. or at least some of them. at some point "hmm this is an odd design" gave way to "what the actual fuck? what is wrong with you?"

Now that LLMs can shit out volumes' worth of meaningless drivel in English, invent racist bullshit and implement the stupidest possible ideas for programming languages, is there really a place in this world for Curtis Yarvin?

And here’s @henry nailing the key point: it doesn’t matter if so-called AI “works.” What matters is that the value of your labor goes down, and workers are pushed further into precarity.

But what *really* matters, of course, is what we collectively decide to do about that.

Trump said both helicopter pilots "are safe and uninjured."
