Both are valid here, I think

This is a good encapsulation of why passkeys are having a hard time. There are so many different ways to interact and it’s confusing for the user. There are physical FIDO keys, there are keys you create per device, then there are passkeys that the “device” is a password manager like bitwarden which is cloud based and follows you from wherever. It feels like they offer very different levels of security but do not look very different to the passkey issuer.

I’m right there with ya 😂. They all are IMHO, but society seems to have applied a sliding scale based on how popular a given religion is.

True Value was my first job as a teen. I was beyond useless when it came to actually using the things sold in the store. I lived at home, had never done any actual projects myself beyond a pinewood derby car, and was not to be trusted beyond which aisle something is in.

It isn’t dead?? This ruins my day.

At the end of the day I guess it’s about brand respectability (same reason some religions are cults and some aren’t, IMHO)

This is extremely valuable to see wins on the local level, and that it is getting national press.

It will serve to blunt the years of “socialism = always bad” propaganda that has been endemic since forever. More local wins so we can elect and win on the state and national level in numbers with a mandate to actually get something done.

I’m not one to say we need hellish prison conditions to really punish inmates. I’m all for treating inmates humanely, but the least we could do is be consistent about it, right?

If this is the standard of inmate handling, fine. If there is a disparity of how Maxwell is treated vs how another person might be treated for a similar security level, as what seems to be the case here…that’s a big problem and is rightly being scrutinized.
