Ask HN: What is a secure way to allow 2FA resets?

I have 2FA on one of my web apps. Most users are using Google Authenticator which uses TOTP (Time-Based One-Time Password). On first login, we show them a QR code. We instruct them to save a copy of this QR code in the event they get a new phone or want to install a new 2FA app. However, I am running into a situation where users are not doing this. I can easily enough reset their account to...

Just don't make me use a damn Microsoft live account to login!

Show HN: I made a free iOS/Android app for anyone using Eligius Pool

We updated the site with a video showing video chat!

OK, we have moved to a server that can handle the load. It may take a bit for DNS to propagate for everyone!

We're moving it to a new server with lots more bandwidth!

Very cool. Not sure this was meant to happen, but at one point I did a double jump over a wall and then just started to continuously fall and it never stopped.
We are a team of 4. 2 owners and 2 employees. Our employees are paid hourly. They punch in at 8AM and out at 5PM (give or take time, or overtime if needed). We need to track their punch time to pay them their hourly rate. We also need to track their task time to bill for the work they do. Sometimes they work on things that are internal and are not billed out. Price range isn't a major deal. We are flexible in that aspect. I am actually a programmer and could do this custom, but we have 0 time. We are extremely busy, just hired on a new employee to keep up with work and are looking for a solution ASAP. We use quickbooks for billing and payroll, so integration into that would be a plus but not necessary. If we can't find anything, I will plan on building it. Just looking for something to work NOW! Harvest is great, but doesn't do punch time. Thanks.

Another big difference is how they cook the patties. They only brown a frozen patty. This is why it look thicker. When you cook the patty it looses fat and juices. This makes it look thin.

Maybe on the significant others device, it could have a sort of "defcon" system. To let me know that I should bring home chocolate and keep my opinions to myself!

Yeah! Would be great if it synced so that I could get a "Go" or "No Go" signal!

Was I the only one hoping to see lava hit the drone and take it down?
