I use 1Password as my password manager, and add a tag to each login where I have a specific hardware key registered.

Yep, I recently got Google's Titan pair of keys, and anywhere that supports hardware keys, I was able to register both, and I'm only required to use one to login.

Re:How can you launch a Kickstarter for an Android reader for $10k? on Wednesday April 03, 2019 @03:30AM (#19561490)

A surprising amount of Kickstarters are already funded, or at least, partly funded before starting their crowdfunding. I know of one case first hand that had secured X amount of funding based on the ability to secure Y amount of crowdfunding. So, very possibly that's the case here. Some investors see it as a way to prove there's at least some market for the product.

I was made redundant yesterday, and I've found myself with some free time, and a woefully empty Github account.I published my first npm module today, https://github.com/coughlanio/pocketcasts and I'd like to write a few more to help beef up my portfolio.Any ideas or fun things you can think of?

Why not use YouTube's RSS feeds and use any bog standard reader?

As for the comments that's likely a bigger issue to tackle, especially with how liberal Google is with captchas these days.
