  • I don't follow what you're trying to say here. (The last 2 sentences contradict in my mind)

    Anyway, phone vs this tomfoolery, it might not be more/less secure, just different.What's on paper is all there will be, as it doesn't include the secret for generating additional codes.Phone has that, but also has a screen lock. Whether that is easy to bypass will depend on environment, but after the first unlock, it is at least realistic.Plus you have people like my father who go by "no lock, nothing to hide".

    For immediate exploit, paper looses.For later persistent exploitation, phone looses.

    Also, no one's going to have endless scrolls of codes like this. 2 pages for less than 4 hours. Round that up to 2 hours per page, that would be 12 pages per day, 360 pages per month, 4,380 pages per year.I had to do this, because it was a requirement (they even recommended to print out the password). Actually, they didn't mention 2FA, just to print out the password (and no use of personal devices). This is the best I could do given the environment.

  • Same for banks in Slovakia, but you typically have monthly packages that will include unlimited withdrawals. Say, €7/month.

    But it's all over the place.

  • about as secure as using someone’s SSN for the 2fa

    I'll give you one better. For a certain thing, the university I attend decided to use birth numbers as a password. And that was the only factor.Mind you, in Slovakia, the birth number consists of birth date + random 4 digits.Much safety.

    Anyway, SSN doesn't expire in less than 4 hours.

  • But they'd also need the password.

    Alternative would be disabling 2FA altogether.

  • cupholder.exe

  • Sorry, but the argument above was for a regular user, who doesn't know what Rufus is, who doesn't know the concept of OS, who simply knows thinks the files are saved "on the computer" (while they somehow ended up on OneDrive).

  • No.Password I remember is the 1st factor, a valid code from this list (which depends on time) is the second factor.

    It's same as using the phone, except that here they were precomputed and on paper for some time span. None of these are valid now (well, maybe there is one, it's a bunch of number combinations after all), and you don't have the private key to generate more.Say, you can tell that at 10:02:30 UTC the valid code was 262887, but you don't know what it is now.

    That's the advantage of TOTP, they expire. If it were plain HOTP, I'd only need 1 code at a time anyway.

  • I said personal experience. It could be individual.

    But I am not flexible enough.

  • Still, that's just a theory, needs confirmation by personal experience.

  • February 31st, 24:59 is going to be wild.

  • Just a small note, in uBlock Origin there is a blocklist named "EasyList - AI Widgets" that seems to work fine, at least with Google. It also has entries for duckduckgo.com.

  • Nah, I tried Windows 11. That was more complex.CLI magic to create local account on installation (apparently doesn't work anymore)gpedit who knows what to disable automatic updatesdisable BITS because it was hogging CPUdisable sysmain because it was hogging SSD and CPU

    And then there were still random problems like advertisements that looked like programs which would actually download something upon clicking them (I remember seeing TikTok in the start menu). CPU would idle pretty low... until I connected it to network.
