wenchcoat system:
🍯 Akhra (or Melli to disambiguate), ratel.
🐲 Rhiannon, drangolin.
🦡 Lenestre, American badger.

unless tagged or otherwise obvious, assume 🍯🐲🦡 in chorus; even when that's not quite accurate, we will always be in consensus. address collectively as Akhra (she/her), or as wenchcoat (she/her or plural).

got into it with a twitchguy stumping hard for 2FA.

pointed out that consistent access to a fixed email and/or phone number and/or smart mobile device is a privilege of both wealth and nationality and most systems expect all three; this is an ill-conceived patch atop fundamentally bad systems and we need to rethink authentication from the ground up (or maybe just eliminate incentives to subvert it, but capitalism and empire will probably take longer to fix).

his retort was that he has ten years experience in cybersecurity and in his expert opinion... "people need to get better at recording their recovery codes."

my dude that is literally writing down your password with extra steps. what are you doing. why are you here.

Yeah the "I might not have the same phone number in a year" thing made me very wary of the common methods of 2fa used, while it was the bad years.

I honestly still need to get a real actual phone plan because I'm still on some fucking AT&T GoPhone monthly thing from when I was poor. :V
