I haven’t found this to be the case in practice (IE passkeys are plenty portable). I’ve successfully used passkeys on multiple browsers, OS’s, and apps, all stored using a FOSS password manager (keepass). Any FOSS password manager that is either self-hosted, or syncs, should work just as well with passkeys as it does for regular passwords or TOTP.
Which are those? I haven’t had one that rejected keepass so far.
Despite the attention-grabbing headline, the only negative thing I can find in the article about passkeys are this section:
Attested passkeys7 are the last but most important type of passkeys you need to know about. These types of keys use what’s known as remote attestation to cryptographically verify – using the aforementioned tamper-proof cryptoprocessor that lives in all your modern devices – that you are using one of the several approved passkey managers, and not using a custom one that you vibecoded yourself and which can lie.
This is the feature that means you no longer get to make the calls about your passkeys. Fortunately, attested passkeys are not yet required on most websites.
I don’t see why we should assume this hypothetical is going to happen. There is a lot of different software that supports passkeys (I use keepass for example), and going against the open standard and forcing all their users to use a specific software would basically make them unusable.
Overall every password / login style has its dangers and bad ways to use it, including passkeys. That doesn’t make them “traps”.

141·5 days agoAhhh that makes sense.
One thing that’s still unclear, but I guess its not that important: the article made it sound like the captured DPRK POWs asked to be sent to South Korea (because north korea bad), but more plausibly South Korea just wanted prisoners for leverage and swaps, and had more use for them than Ukraine does. That would explain their desire to keep it from being publicized by elensky.

are usually not regarded as authoritarian
Despite two of the primary liberal countries, the US and UK, genociding entire continents.
The liberal political system of bourgeios “democracy” is a much more effective system at genocide than even fascist governments.

She apparently had this heart attack in July… I wonder why its taken so long for the public to learn about it. I can only speculate that the US imposed a gag order of some kind on Maduro’s lawyers.

Capitalists aren’t going to let you abolish their rule without an organized violence that they will tell others is “authoritarian”.

Doesn’t work, a tiny number of capitalists have more of them, and created a system / rigged game (bourgeois “democracy”) that perfectly serves their interests.

10·6 days agoYou can’t fight against capitalism with violence,
Historically the only way you can fight against capitalism is with violence. There has never been a case in its entire ~400 year history where its relinquished power to socialist alternatives without violence.
