Unlock 1Password With a Passkey: Now in Beta in c/android@lemdro.id

It's much more secure on 'less than trusted' devices and for less than secure people.

Instead of having to type your password in on your friends laptop that may have a keylogger installed, you just type your username in and then do your fingerprint on your phone. That's it; your phone verifies it's you and then transmits the passkey over Bluetooth, so it can't be phished or observed while you type it.

For less than secure people, you don't have to convince them to use a password manager and stop writing their passwords on sticky notes. They just type in their username and do their fingerprint on their phone. It can't be phished so even if someone is remotely controlling a victims computer the damage is limited to allowing access to a single account on that physical computer - they can't take that passkey and use it anywhere else, unlike a password for an email account that's used for online banking as well. They also can't keylogger it and then log in after they're disconnected from the victim.

I (tried to) send you a message, there doesn't seem to be a 'Sent' box on Lemmy so I can't verify it sent successfully. Let me know if you didn't get it.

It's not really meant for soliciting, but Tindie is the closest thing I can think of what you're looking for. https://www.tindie.com/ You could find something in the same ballpark of what you're looking for and contact the person who made it and ask if they would be interested in doing custom projects.

That was probably permanent magnet cards (pre-made credit cards, membership cards, etc) vs re-writable magnetic cards that can be written to with a desktop machine.

A shituation you could say.

I didn't really like Nebula. I signed up and canceled my subscription before I even finished a single video. Almost everything is available on YouTube for free (albeit with ads if you don't have Youtube Premium) and it just didn't feel like they had enough content to be charging $5/month.

Adding a comma or a question mark on iOS is maddening when you're used to SwiftKey.
