do any of you still use the pattern to lock your device screens? it's a lot better than using a code and using any of the sensors
>>108901417Mediocre bait
>>108901417My phone is unprotected If anyone ever steals it they will have access to all of my accounts, but fuck it I'm not unlocking my phone 50 times a day
>>108901442just wipe your pattern trail after opening
>>108901417Never use such thing. Always used the complex password.Nowadays I use a portable gene sequencing machine and it works flawlessly for my desktops and workstations.
>>108901477Even if it was locked once phone gets lost or even broken this means I can't even pay my bills. So stupid.
>>108901417the protected apps feature from lineage os requires it
>>108901502Just use pin scramble
>>108901532?????????????????????????just call the company and pay your bill lol? or go to any checks cashed place and pay yur billor go online and pay your billor send them a check in the mail and pay your bill
>>108901477Fingerprint unlock takes the exact same amount of time as just turning on the screen.You are gaining zero convenience at the cost of 100% of security.
>>108901417#7 is possible
>>108902216I'm not giving the tech Jew my fingerprint
>>108901477This. Two factor authentication drove me to disable the screen lock on my phone, it's one less password I have to put in every time I'm forced to go through the re-authentication humiliation ritual.
>>108902306???????????? So you're too much of a lazy nigger to type in 4 numbers, too much of a lazy nigger to swipe a line, and too much of a schizo to store a fingerprint locally on a device.Yea you deserve to be pwned.
>>108902216Not true. If someone bonks you during you walk late night, they will unlock your shit by pressing your finger against the device while you're knocked out.Just a random hypothetical situation when having a code or at least this stupid pattern or a pin is better than a fingerprint.Fingerprint is only for when your screen is already unlocked. As a protection lvl 2.
>>108902344I fully agree with you. Fingerprint is the bare minimum level of security, and really only helps you if you lose your device.But for the anon I was replying to, it seemed like the most frictionless possible option to suggest.
>>108902336but I haven't been pwned, and I fully admit that I am being reckless with my security. Why are (your) panties in a knot?
>>108901417I use a simple Z to honor the heroes that fell in the liberation of the Donbas.
>>108902130how you gonna call them without a phone, you knob
>>108902684I forgot that we each get assigned one phone for life as soon as we're born and it's all riding on that single device forever.
>>108901417I use a 254 character password as well as an open source usb-c solokey to unlock my rooted android phone
>>108901417Yeah I like the pattern lock, lets me input a more complicated, harder to read code than a 4-digit PIN in the same amount of time
>>108902344> If someone bonks you during you walk late night, they will unlock your shit by pressing your finger against the device while you're knocked out.And then what, check my browser history and photos once until it locks again? Bank and password manager have their own locks, changing any security settings requires pin/pattern, reboot requires pin/pattern.You can't have just the biometrics as a key, it's always only a secondary with pin/pattern primary.
>>108901417>1, 6, 8last I tried android did not allow immediate backtracking to the same dot so a pattern must have at most two loose ends
>>108901417you can see the pattern on the screen anon where people have dragged their finger look at your screen same shit works on worn keypads
>>108903354>you can see the pattern on the screen anon where people have dragged their finger look at your screen same shit works on worn keypadst. og alt 2600
>>108902344It's worse than that, if someone wants to unlock your phone they will fucking cut off your finger. I would never use any body part for security. Retina scans are the scariest. Imagine not only losing access to all your accounts but also having your fucking eye gouged out.Much better to have a password, then you can decide exactly what level of torture you're willing to endure before giving it up.
>>108901417>Government can spy on you>FAGMAN can spy on you>Chinese and Russian goverments probably can spy on you too>Phones still INSIST on setting up a lock screen for "security" and "privacy"Humiliation ritual
>>108902130>go online and pay your bill*laughs in 2FA*
>>108902355>Fingerprint is the bare minimum level of security>smooth glassy thing that you touch more than anything else is protected by fingerprintlol. lmao.
>>108902755such is life in glorious chinagweilo pigs wouldnt understand
My pattern is literally a U on the bottom right quadrant. Glowies could get into my phone if they wanted to, why make it harder for myself on a daily basis?I just want to keep jamal out if I ever lose or get my phone stolen
>>108906462I don't even know what level of schizo you're on.
>>108901417Never use patterns
my code is 1337
>>108901417Sure but doing a complicated pattern is pointless, takes a long time and doesn't offer any extra security.
>>108903386Who's going to do that to you? Who's thinking "I want to steal a phone" and is willing to take the charge of torture and maiming to do it in additional to plain old mugging?If you're a criminal, you weigh up the payout of the crime versus the risk you bear from doing it. Eye gouging is way more legal risk for no more gain, realistically.
>>108901477>he can't unlock his phone in a split-secondNgmi
>>108901477android forces you to lock it just like they force you to make an account for their webstore
>>108901417this is the only one you need
>>108907029based
>>108901417not locking my phones at allhave two phones, one only for 2fa which never leaves desk and other one only for calls
>>108902344Good thing FaceID requires you to look at your phone then. And I'm sure someone cutting your head off is the least of your concerns.
