It’s not like he didn’t warn us.

Remember if you get caught making things up on your resume, it’s not a lie, it’s an erroneous statement.
@Charles Cool! If you want to use it and don’t mind spending a little bit of money, there are these adapter/receiver things that plug into the Dock connector and receive Bluetooth audio. Would be a way of getting a modern iPhone to play wirelessly to it.
@Charles What is that? It reminds me of the iPod Hi-Fi but… looks different. 🤔
@Ronnie I don’t often have Mexican for breakfast—other than a basic breakfast burrito—but it sounds good. What do you like to get?
@CheapPontoon FWIW setting up passkeys rarely, if ever, requires you to ditch your traditional password and MFA login method. It’s just one of multiple ways that you can sign in.
Microsoft does let you remove your password after you’ve enabled passwordless login, but you have to take additional steps to do it.
I don’t think you can stop having a Google password. You just stop using it.
I’d suggest adding a passkey as a test drive and you can always remove it later if you really don’t like it.
@qlp Haha. I’m still waiting for my turn on Nintendo’s official list, and meanwhile we ordered and received one from Target on Wednesday.
@Tender Amazing that they got Rick Moranis, he’s effectively retired from acting.
It’s a tired, worn-out trope that peace in the middle east is this unachievable holy grail of a thing. But gosh, there’s a reason people keep using it.
@Peacefulz @timcappalli IMHO any credential manager worth using is end-to-end encrypted—1Password and iCloud being a couple examples that are, but of course there are others. That way you don’t need to worry about what happens on the other end. If you still really don’t trust that, you can also create passkeys on a hardware key such as a YubiKey. But if you do go local-only, make sure you have at least two or three of them as a failsafe against loss, damage, etc.
@timcappalli Nice! Just looked in the Albertsons app and got a prompt to set up a passkey. Then went into the Safeway app and it logged me in with the same one. 😎
