A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is a crazy problem. Even Apple requires you to use SMS 2FA, and does not let you opt out or use any alternatives.
My employer uses this as well and I was locked out (couldn't do any work) for an entire day because their SMS messages were not being delivered.
As a side note, Apple is also the only platform I've ever used that requires you to type your password in without seeing it, which makes using an actually-secure-password really fucking difficult.
I don’t know if this is something that I’ve set up somehow but I get a spiffy 2FA pop up on my Apple devices when I sign into my account. It’s not an app or whatnot but a part of the OS.
Yeah that only works if you have an Apple device signed into your account and in front of you. Aren't walled gardens fun?
