@hanno@mastodon.socialSo... that's a new one: I got a mail that clearly looks like some kind of scam, and they ask me to contact them via @…
It looks like they link to the legit signal installation source, and want me to contact them via a signal number or username. Is that something Signal would want me to report, and if so, where?

@nelson@tech.lgbtI'm slowly changing my email address at every service I use. I've found three results:
That third one's a real mess.
@unixorn@hachyderm.io#infosec annoyance of the day - I use a tool for work that requires me to put in a rolling one-time code for 2fa, and doesn't show the code as I'm typing it.
That would be ok, except if I switch apps to copy the code so I can paste it in, it usually forces me to re-enter my username and password, then even though I'm in the 30 second validity window, it refuses the code.
So I have to wait till the 30 seconds roll over, copy the code, switch to the tool, re-enter my username/password, hope it doesn't take so long to negotiate with the back end that the code in my clipboard expires, then finally paste the code.
Conveniently I only have to do it multiple times a day, every work day.
@vform@openbiblio.socialAch, ich hab immer via Shell geguckt, ob bei mail was bei username@localhost angekommen ist (für privaten Rechner brauch ich kein Forwarding an richtige Mail).
Gerade der Gedanke, ich kann die einfach in Thunderbird als lokalen Ordner anzeigen. Mit Flatpak grob so
1. Bei Flatpak Zugriff auf Ordner /var/mail erlauben
3. `ln -s /var/mail/USERNAME "/home/USERNAME/.var/app/org.mozilla.Thunderbird/.thunderbird/CHECKMICH.default-release/Mail/Local Folders/System-Mail"

@hanno@mastodon.socialI'm not a fan of the "users won't understand error messages any way, so we can just not give any meaningful error messages" philosophy... Is there a way to tell @… that I want to see more meaningful error messages?
@fanf@mendeddrum.orgRE: https://mastodon.online/@mwichary/115990762258946955
shell prompt reinforcing situational awareness by containing username, hostname, working directory
@inthehands@hachyderm.ioMy solution to the problem @… mentions:
1. Make password the •only• login field. No username/email! Just password, and you’re in!
2. Because they now identify users, passwords must to be unique across all users in a system.
3. For security reasons, require passwords to be unique across all sites on the entire Internet. A password can be used at most once in human history.
4. This renders account recovery impossible in many cases.
5. Over time, users are thus able to use fewer and fewer sites, eventually being forced offline altogether.
6. Success!

@cdarwin@c.imOver the weekend, Elon Musk’s X rolled out a feature that had the immediate result of sowing maximum chaos.
The update, called
“About This Account,”
allows people to click on the profile of an X user and see such information as:
which country the account was created in, where its user is currently based,
and how many times the username has been changed.
Nikita Bier, X’s head of product, said the feature was “an important first step to securing the integrity…

@guerda@ruhr.socialWeb #Security fail: #Chargeprice attaches username and password as GET parameter after successful login.
And as it is an SPA, the password is constantly visible and will appear in any browser history.
@aredridel@kolektiva.socialWild. I had no idea I had a 4 digit github user ID.
Was I really that early or was there an early renumbering and I got a low one thanks to a username starting with A?
Such a strange thing to learn right after moving most of my stuff away from github.

@grahamperrin@bsd.cafe@… mis-typing your own username is OK.
The real fun begins when you lock yourself out, during installation, with a correctly typed password.
