Probably Edding?

Some markers are more permanent than others I guess (I came across some that weren’t really bothered by isopropyl or solvent).

For speed I’d suggest a stencil and some nasty spray paint (the type that isn’t easily removed).

Isn’t that quite easy to remove, unlike permanent marker?

The problem is that public toilets need to be indestructible. The one near my home is constantly out of order because some asshole vandalized it. Restaurants, shops and delis only let customers use their restroom - probably for the same reason.

Tall buildings can block or funnel wind which can lead to smoggy and stormy areas. I assume at least Manhattan will have enough wind due to location and layout. However other cities that have a more medieval layout may have problematic areas. Most cities will do some kind of climate planning, I.e. where do wind and water go, are there any hot areas, etc. Here’s the starting page Frankfurts urban climate plan for air ducts for example. If you google „urban climate planning“ you’ll find tons of examples including NYC.

Yep, that bluesky post gets an F on text interpretation.

Yes

Why not offer a participation trophy called the ‚Noble Piece Prize‘? At his reading level he’ll not notice any difference and no one is going to tell him.

Exactly. Any organization whose MFA doesn’t work on Aegis, I take action to protect myself from their incompetence.

That'll surely end their business. /s

I’m sure they claim that. But I still recognize it as simple incompetence. They aren’t able or willing to hire someone with the Cybersecurity expertise to implement a relatively simple open specification.

Just out of curiosity: What percentage of the population is capable of running Graphene/Aegis? What percentage, regardless of capability, is willing to do so?

Creators of popular OSS regularly warn about downloading their stuff elsewhere or pay for it. How do you think that would apply to any 2FA application?

Now think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that. (love some George Carlin). Given that even (very) stupid people have and need bank accounts: How would you implement an authentication that can't easily be compromised to ripp off stupid people?*

* Let's just assume that you, the lead developer, are not at all "incompetent", quite the opposite. Also take into consideration that you need to keep cost down (hint: That means you want no one to call support because of 3rd party applications!).

Well, they have a kind of 2FA since at least 30 years, long before rolling tokens were all over the place. Their latest implementations are as simple to use as Steam 2FA. If a bank isn’t able to implement a proper 2FA login there’s a ton of other security issues to worry about. Lastly, I think by using their own implementation/app they prevent their customers from using compromised apps.

I don’t know about the US but on this side of the pond banks have their own 2nd factor apps. So to log in to a bank’s website you need an app - quite probably with play integrity.

Earth 2? What do you think they want Greenland for?
