do people like authenticator apps?

i broke my phone and got locked out of my bank, steam, post office and other things.
everysingle one needed an authenticator or some app i didn't have access to anymore.

i had to take out my sim and plug it into another phone to end up using the sms verification stuff, if i didn't have another phone, i'd be screwed.

do people enjoy this? like are jobs made solely for this so they won't go away?
I'm honestly so lost why things need to be so complex now, where just not having a single device causes so many issues

Google Authenticator backs up to to your Google account nowadays. Aegis has a back up feature too that it will nag you about if you haven't backed up your data. You have to be a complete retard to have lost your auth app access.

No. They're still better than fucking email 2fa because if you lose your email address, you are locked out for life. You can't back up a gmail address, but you can back up your authenticator keys. Not with google authenticator though, I use aegis.

Most normie apps sell your data so at this point I think the best defense you could have is unironically writing your stuff in pencil on a sticky note or a real life notepad.
The average internet zoomer is afraid of leaving their house so anything in your physical house is safe. If the state busts into your house thats a different can of worms but they have backdoors etc anyway so whatever.
If I get hacked somehow then I'll worry about it then. Hasn't happened yet.

>>108504739
the one thing I like about msvc is that it just works with address sanitizer and vcpkg.
mingw gcc does not support address sanitizer, but clang does (llvm-mingw).
Clang-cl requires /MT /MTd for address sanitizer which is annoying (you don't need to rebuild vcpkg unless a library uses the C library).
Clang has ubsan (it does a lot of things) which is kind of neat since it converts __builtin_unreachable into an error unlike msvc's __assume(false).
In C /C++, Debug builds usually don't mean "Debug This". It just means "generate debug info".
Msvc has better sane Debug defaults in cmake / VS projects (RTC is similar~ to ubsan but asan is 100x more useful).
gcc/clang will not enable warnings by default...
Also you can avoid cmake by using VS projects and it works with vcpkg. And clang-cl works in VS.
Vcpkg is ideal for windows because it will copy DLL's for you (personally my issue with mingw is more C++ related, since in C you don't need any DLL's since mingw just uses msvc's C library. You could statically link BUT I like DLL's).
Also note that on mingw/linux, all your functions are public. You need -fvisibility=hidden, but now your debugger wont work at all with optimized code.
On MSVC (and clang-cl) you get no info on a "Release" build". So you can't even use a debugger. cmake's RelWithDebInfo is close enough but it should also have /OPT:REF to reduce size...
Also linux has a lot of thread debugging tools (valgrind/thread sanitizer), if you are not using threads, there is no point to using linux. Dr Memory is identical to valgrind (asan does not check uninitialized memory bugs, unlike valgrind/dr memory, but it's so slow).
Also asan on linux will detect leaks, which I find annoying since graphical libraries tend to create false positives.
One reason why msvc wont make a pdb file for a release, is probably because it will leak the full path (this is only an issue if you build in your desktop, but I like keeping asserts enabled on release).

to send a bug report/patch you don't need to be subscribed to the mailing list, you just send an email bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org and it will be processed by debbugs (and maybe manually too? the only time i sent a patch it took a few hours to be processed) and then CC'd to the mailing list. i think you can also reply to a report without being subscribed to the list

Freedom to fork things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to rewrite things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to have things not working because the developers have to account for a billion different configurations.
Freedom to incorrectly configure your machine and cause obscure cryptic issues that seem unrelated and impossible for other people to replicate without taking the same steps.
Freedom to have inferior software because the developers can't assert the user environment.
Basically, freedom to fuck it up in every step of the way.

MacOS "just works" because they control the hardware and the software.
Windows "just works" because the user has no control over the entire OS stack.
Linux "works in your machine" because you happened to have a similar environment as a specific developer.

After using Linux for so long I treat so many things as minor inconveniences (like different display/audio protocols supporting different features, how enabling the compositor fucks specific games, and so on) that would never happen on any other OS.

I just don't feel like Linux will ever go anywhere as long as things keep fracturing whenever they reach past a certain size. Having a BDFL in your project seems to work well but I don't know if that's a good solution, it won't stop people from forking your shit instead of contributing to a single effort.

Anon what you're experiencing is Stockholm syndrome. Like a battered wife, you're rewiring your brain to treat every issue that Linux has that no other OS experiences as something good. That is not healthy. Windows users at least have the gall to complain about their OS being shit.
