Taking the train from Seattle to Portland today to learn, laugh, and vibe at #xoxofest. If you see me, say hi! The best way to recognize me is usually my hair.

@clarity happy birthday! hope you have a great day.

Some people missed this and I think it’s a big deal: the Passwords app on iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia allows you to save passwords without a website! It even allows you to import them from other password managers! When adding passwords, you can specify a website or a custom label, like “Router”, "Passport Number”, or “Garage Door”.

If you try importing your passwords before macOS Sequoia, you’ll run into this limitation. Hold tight—your brighter day will come. :) https://mastodon.social/@maddox/112802975432717333

Google Password Manager? Bitwarden?

it’s going to get worse before it gets a lot worse.

As I sit in my mom’s house without power for the second time in a week, I realize that I’m kind of sick of these “freak” storms we’ve been having.

My mom said to me tonight, “So with climate change we’re going to keep getting more of these?”, and I was simultaneously proud and heartbroken.

I think the fondness that we can accumulate for people who we’ve never met in person is one of the best things.

@clarity See you there!

PSA: The reason people say “nice” in response to “69” is because 69 is evenly divisible by 3.

Would it be a little too extra to bring a tiny roll of electrical tape in my standard luggage to block annoying LEDs in a hotel room? Has anyone done this?

“Google says passkeys have been used to authenticate users more than one billion times across over 400 million Google Accounts since the company launched passkey support in 2022. Google says passkeys are used on Google Accounts more often than legacy forms of two-step verification, such as SMS one-time passwords and app-based one-time passwords combined.” https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/02/google-brings-passkey-support-to-its-advanced-protection-program-ahead-of-the-us-presidential-election/

The beautiful purple button should say “Set up passkey”, but I’ll take it.
