Not sure if this is totally up your alley, but Toggl is probably the most popular time tracking service and I find the app to be pretty good. It has a mixture of tracking and pomodoro/focus features. Might be worth trying?

Is there a setting anywhere for google calendar to not jump into week view when you click on an item from the normal month view? I hate weekly view and find it disorientating. I've looked everywhere.

Got my Pixel 6 today and I found out Authenticator+ hasn't updated in like 3 years, lol. What's the best alternative with Google Drive support, hopefully that I can import from Authenticator+?

Some like Microsoft's (LMAO) and I think Google's at least backs up now. Personally the one I tried out before just giving in and putting them in 1Password was TOTP Authenticator which was pretty good. It had some pet feature I used in Authenticator+ that nothing else did (maybe a Wear OS component?). Honestly I can see the argument against putting them 1PW, but on the other hand if an attacker can get to my vault then 2FA isn't going to be saving me so I went with that route and I've really grown to like the convenience.

You can open your authenticator+ backup with a SQLite app that supports encryption if you need to get at the original setup codes. Edit: If any of you use Signal and are moving to a new phone it has a native migration tool built in. You'll need both phones near each other and online to start the process. That'll save you the reverify and security alerts with your friends. FunOne fucked around with this message at 23:11 on Oct 28, 2021 |

I saw this: Microsoft is building a new password manager that syncs credentials across its Edge browser, Google Chrome, and mobile iOS or Android devices. A preview version of the password manager is now built into Microsoft Authenticator, a free mobile app that’s used for multi-factor authentication.

Does anybody know a animal identification helper app that actually work? Googling only gives me "seek" and that app sucks. It hates focusing my camera and gives me very questionable output even if it does work. And it seems impossible to extract a link to the animal's wikipedia page or something like that.

Google Lens is usually pretty good at identifying animals if you can get a good enough photo. If the limitation is your camera, you might be out of luck. edit: I used Google Lens on your bad photo and it quickly guessed Asian Lady Beetles Vykk.Draygo fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Oct 30, 2021 |

Basically the opposite of what I am looking for.

I use iNaturalist for identifying plants frequently. iNaturalist also let's you see what other people in your area have reported. So you could also just browse and filter by spider. Then scroll through and look for a match.

Yea, I looked into seek afterwards. I don't know what niche its trying to serve that iNaturalist doesn't. The reviews are pretty bad too, so definitely check out the actual iNaturalist app. The interface takes some getting used to, but functionally it's really good at identifying most things. Even when it can't, it gets you close enough that you can research on your own.

Not sure if that is because they added it later, or bad interface discoverability.

Booted up this old lovely last-resort Windows tablet I have laying around, just to do updates, mostly make sure it still works. It'd been long enough or whatever that I had to log back in to my Microsoft and Google accounts, both with 2FA connected to my phone. Both the Microsoft authenticator app and the Google sign-in prompt thing had a new feature I hadn't seen the last time I used them: Microsoft displayed a two-digit number on the tablet, then the phone prompt asked me to select the same number from a few choices, I guess to foil attacks relying on either a mindless yes or a malicious request somehow deployed immediately before a legitimate one. Google asked me to, instead of simply pressing yes on a notification as before, hold the volume down button for a few seconds, which seems like it might mitigate the former somewhat but not the latter. Were there some specific recent attacks prompting these measures or did someone just suddenly realize it probably should've worked that way all along?

It probably prompt it, but here's a story of a CEO approving all 2FA that came to him, not realizing he was supposed to only approve one's when he was logging in. https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2021/10/problems-with-multifactor-authentication.html

Has anyone realized normal people have no clue how to deal with modern security bullshit? 9/10 of people have no clue and just bungle their way through it or hire someone to figure it out for them. Pretend you need to find either Microsoft or Google 2 factor auth settings. That requires knowing a FUCKIGN retarded interface with icons no one knows and what the appropriate buzzwords are. The entire thing is a full on poo poo-show of epic proportions. redeyes fucked around with this message at 04:21 on Nov 3, 2021 |

A couple years ago I would routinely get notifications that the person or persons on the other side of the world who think they own my Gmail account was trying to reset the password, and asking me to approve the reset. I never did, but if that notification had come in at an inconvenient time, such as when I was using the login on an untrusted computer and expecting the almost identical looking notification for that, or if I had manhandled my phone with my glasses off in the middle of the night, I might have wound up accidentally approving it. Unsure what would have happened then, but I imagine it would have been extremely inconvenient at the very least.

It can be a little annoying about sync errors but I can live with it (or more likely could probably find a way to fix the issue in the first place if I cared)
