I was confused why the Wi-Fi symbol lights up when I boot my Mac, before I enter the password.I tested this, far away from my Wi-Fi network, and it doesn't light up then.Apple's support pages say "Unlock FileVault using SSH: On a Mac with Apple silicon with macOS 26 or later, FileVault can be unlocked over SSH after a restart if Remote Login is turned on and a network connection is available."...
It uses Peer-2-Peer in the browser and I haven't touched it in a while, but it looks like it still works. :)

Hi HN,This is a site where users can submit content and the shortest SHA256 value of nonce+content among them will make the site display the content. Very basic, without a blockchain. It's a static site with WebRTC and peer-to-peer.Why? I wanted r/place (Reddit canvas where users collaborate on a pixel grid), but with proof of work. This is my progress so far. It's a WebRTC app with peer to...
And when it was enabled there was a nag for Passkeys or password family sharing or something like that. I guess they want people to use that now.

I resubmitted it again because the text content of the submission was missing.
I just finally updated to iOS 17.2 from iOS 16. And now I remember why I usually hesitate with updates:After the update, iCloud Passwords and Keychain Sync turned on by itself. So all passwords and keychain info (I don't know what keychain info encompasses) is in the Cloud now. Apparently it's E2E encrypted, but in some closed source way which I didn't choose.This is a known issue apparently...
If you delete an iOS app (iOS 17 too), not all its data is gone. Keychain data survives re-installation. To delete the app completely, you have to reset your phone (or have a Jailbreak and manually reset the keychain). If you know alternative methods, please let me know.Not sure what happens if iCloud Keychain Sync is on too. Might retain the data forever.I think that's terrible, since apps can...
