This isn’t meant to “mean” anything btw, just a stupid pun.

    As a security “expert” by trade, Hello’s PIN garbage always frustrates me. Do you honestly think someone is going to put different PINs on different devices? I get the whole “don’t let the password leave the machine” but EVEN MICROSOFT solved that with Kerberos long ago. It’s a solution for a solved problem.

    None of the “benefits” seemed to line up. The multifactor/biometric support is in theory good, at least, but the rest of the copy they give users is useless.

    Use good, unique passphrases on a few things (your computer, your phone, and your password manager) and use randomly generated passwords for everything else.

      Linux can play almost all AAA titles and in many cases the performance is better than on windows.

        I wish this blanket statement was both true and things were as consistently easy and reliable too. Many games run great but with problems that simply don’t occur on Windows.

      It’s been a long time since I haven’t been able to play a game on Linux. I recently moved my gaming PC from dual boot to solo Linux.
