In terms of command line editors, vim is extremely powerful and relatively easy to get started with, once you know how to get into insert mode and then save/quit. nano/pico are easier to learn but less powerful, and emacs is probably more powerful than vim, and more daunting to learn. Also, vim is installed on almost all systems, so there’s not really any extra work to get started using it.

This is one of the most sensible comments in the thread. The law is the problem. This is something which should have been self regulated by websites themselves, but Meta lobbied for laws like this so they wouldn't have to police it. The law making this mandatory for everyone when this should be a parental control is the issue.

IMO the benefit and curse is you could fork it, maintain it, patch it yourself, etc if you wanted, but then its a full time job keeping it up to date with changes. As others have pointed out, this is a decisive change, so a fork probably wouldn’t be a solo project, but the bifurcation in development would be a large impact, slowing development in other fixes and features.

Ok, I think I get what you're saying. You mean have a different form input without the password, like how it's done here: https://eu.app.orcasecurity.io/login I guess that's one way to do it, but it's not really intuitive from a user perspective, since the first thing you see is a password field, and then think you don't have access because you don't have a password. This one comes to mind because I have had to tell people to click the tab for the email only field, not email and password.

Not sure I'd take design inspiration from Microsoft of all places. Also https://login.live.com/ has the same workflow email -> continue -> password. Not sure where you're seeing Log in with SSO option.

I can imagine that the sites want to validate that you still have access to the email associated with the account, and asking people to check their settings is annoying, and they know no one will do it. I can also imagine that sites want to know as much about you as possible, don't want you to be using burner email addresses, and are probably selling the fact that your email address can still receive email to marketing firms who compile that info.

This is because of Enterprise Single Sign On. You can try this for yourself by going to https://gmail.com/ and enter the email of a public person at a large org, for example the CEO of Doordash (`tony@doordash.com`). After you enter the email, you get sent to Doordash's employee portal to authenticate. Based on the email you provide, Gmail has to figure out if you need to provide a password to gmail itself or if the email authenticates another way.

Assuming the laptop you're looking to control has HDMI out and USB input for Keyboard and mouse, I think you're right with the KVM switch idea, one that supports USB and HDMI input, and can switch between them between two devices. What I would do is get something which can record HDMI on your main PC. Some gamer devices have HDMI passthrough, which you'd plug into the KVM switch, but you could also use an HDMI splitter to have a feed from the laptop going into the KVM switch and to the recorder on your main computer. On your main computer, you could use OBS Studio to record the video from the laptop.

The linked paper, [“Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog”](https://eprint.iacr.org/2025/1237.pdf) is also a great breakdown of how much the quantum factoring is more of a parlor trick and not practical for factoring RSA Keys, mainly since the prime factors are only a few bits off of each other and from the square root of the number being factored.
