I assume they're going to use it on Apple.com, the same way that they were using backdrop-filter to simulate the frosted glass on earlier iOSes


according to the post, it doesn't exist on Safari


The emoji is gone but the content is still there.


Considering my iPhone alarm still sometimes fails to go off (it just shows the alarm screen silently), I'd be inclined to believe you.


Thanks for that— I though I was going crazy (well still could be I guess) or had some strange habit or gesture I didn’t realize was silencing the alarm somehow.



Whenever I have to wake for something that I absolutely can’t miss, I set 2-3 extra reminders 5 minutes apart precisely because of this “silent alarm” bug. It’s only happened to me a couple of times but twice was enough to completely destroy my trust in the alarm. The first time I thought I just did something in my sleep to cause it, but the UI shows it as if the alarm worked. I’m lucky to have the privilege that if I oversleep an hour or so it’s no big deal, otherwise ye olde tabletop alarm clock would be back.


I love the questioning my sanity before I've completely opened my eyes part. It's like a jump start to my day.


Hah - I also just assumed that I was turning the alarm off in my sleep without noticing. I started doubting it and really wish there was a log of when you tapped snooze or stopped the alarm...

This is too much of a dev feature for apple to implement and there are probably third party apps that do this, but meh


In Chrome Devtools, in the bottom panel, you can select WebAuthn, click Enable virtual authenticator environment, and create all the test passkeys you desire.


I used to use Pixel Bender before I could write stuff in Stage3D instead. Neat stuff!


No examples?


You mean live example?


You can add passkeys for each device (e.g. Windows Hello) or use cloud-synced keys (iCloud, Google, 1Password, probably more)


Something you have: Your phone

Something you know: Your pin

Something you are: Your FaceID/Fingerprint


FaceID and pins just unlock the secure enclave, which stores the password^H^H^H^Hkey on the phone that will eventually break.

So, when you are holding your dead phone, you realize that there is nothing you know or have that will let you into the account (and there never was such a thing).


It means sum, so 55555 would work


got it, thank you!


Elo isn't an acronym/initialism.


It is better if you just imagine that we’re ranking things in order of similarity to ELO (electric light orchestra).


Twitter: -100; Mastodon: zero; Bluesky: 5,000

Yup, this could work


Now I kinda want to hear a heavy metal remake of Mr Blue Sky.


Weezer has you covered.


No need to be coy; it's named after Arpad Elo, the chess player who came up with this general ranking method.


at some point social media posts will put mistakes like this just to bait engagement


Cool story bro.


While we're on the subject, neither is TOR.


Tor is an acronym for "The Onion Router", it just isn't capitalised as such.
