Maybe I meant unauthenticated. What is this, mandatory cybersecurity education!?

Dual-boot questions (but not about Windows)

Background: I’ve been running Linux Mint XFCE for a couple of years now, Windows 10 has been sitting unused on a separate drive but it turns out the one thing I need it for works passably in a VM so it’s time to bin it. I’ve used Fedora Atomic (UBlue) on some laptops and I like it so that seems like a good candidate to replace the Windows install, and Mint can hang around for when I need a “normal” Linux install. Worry: I tried dual-booting them together on a laptop before and I couldn’t get grub to recognise both installs, it only detected the most recently installed one and after an evening of running commands way beyond my knowledge I gave up. I’m hoping that’s just because I installed them on the same disk though. Question: does anyone successfully dual-boot a Fedora Atomic install and a “normal” install? If so then what did you do to set it up and did you encounter any issues? And if you’re feeling extra helpful, do you have any pro tips for setting up shared storage between the two distros or backups for either?

I am annoyed by (but respect) APIs that take it a level further and don't even give you a 403 to say you're unauthorised, they just give you a 404 because anything else would acknowledge that the resource you requested actually existed

I always recommend keeping those backup codes saved in the notes of whatever password manager you’re hopefully using

Wouldn’t this undo some of the security of even having 2FA? If your password manager was somehow breached the attacker would have all your passwords and your 2FA codes, right?
