Ifyou want a slop-free identity manager, then consider giving https://github.com/kanidm/kanidm a look

@dan_lerch@mastodon.social No problem, there has been some progress in that direction recently, but mostly our focus has been on some user-facing changes like account signups.

@dan_lerch@mastodon.social Okay, you might want to follow https://github.com/kanidm/kanidm/issues/1553 then which is our tracker for it.

@dan_lerch@mastodon.social No problem, and if you ever have any issues, feedback, suggestions or want to contribute, you know where to find us!

@dan_lerch@mastodon.social When you say you want passkey login, do you mean "usb security keys" or "the user scans a qr code with their phone and auths from a passkey on the phone?" Yeah, last I checked the freeipa passkey situation was pretty messy.

@amethyst@toots.n7.gg There is a good reason to request the username first with no password input, especially for accounts that dont have a password at all eg passkeys. But the ux can still be done well if attention is paid. In Kanidm we fixed this by having a hidden password + totp field on the first username page, and then we stash those for the next steps so that its all prefilled for you.

Or in meme form, passkeys be like:

Oh to be a little lion, enjoying a hanmock #caturday

Fuck xml.

@peterwilsoncc@aus.social The 64 char limit is to prevent a KDF DOS attack during authentication. Bcrypt limits input to 72 bytes for a similar reason.

@daisy@cloudisland.nz @xssfox@cloudisland.nz @daedalus@eigenmagic.net What you are referring to as Daisy is actually Daisy/Linux

@hackuador@functional.cafe The thing is that even if someone else does something unlawful, the car driver should not have been in a position where that happened. Consider that was a motorbike rider (which I formerly was). If you are in a position where someone does something unlawful and you have to evade and then *hit a bus* you are dead. Literally. Dead. So ultimately as a motorcyclist I was trained to pre-empt and monitor the road as your life is on the line every second - you must build a safety margin at all times or else. Those skills *have* saved my life multiple times. In other words this was an avoidable situation - there was no need for a car to torpedo a bus. The driver of that car was in an unsafe position *before* the former performed the unlawful action. If you are a motorcyclist you would be dead. If you were on a bicycle, you would be dead. So why is it that operator of a nearly 1 ton metal machine is given a slap on the wrist for what *could have been* multiple deaths? Why was the other driver given a similarly trivial slap on the wrist for endangering others. Ultimately my point is that we have a separation in our society where car drivers are given a free pass for highly dangerous actions - we make excuses for the actions that would otherwise be deadly.

@jana@social.jsteuernagel.de the scanning of the qr code sets up a cable tunnel which is proxied via google. So whatever you do on the phone is then sent via google to land on the browser.

@jana@social.jsteuernagel.de Ahh it looks like what happens is that a caBLE tunnel is setup (which btw, still goes via google, sorry to let you know). Then via that caBLE tunnel, your phone can use the yubikey to sign the request since cable is pretty much ctap2-over-noise-tunnel-started-by-bluetooth-qr-magic.

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz I'll do it.

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz look the thought has crossed my mind. And if it was going to happen itd be in a password manager ....

@jpm@aus.social @mike@social.chinwag.org Not even kidding, recently when I tried out OmniOS it kernel panicked on my system and a dev helped me debug it then and there on the spot. Was an amazing experience, and I haven't seen that level of kindness and patience in a distro/os in a long time.

Currently in the problem space I have I think I need to split T into two traits - one for setup and one for the main operations so that during setup the inner type that does impl T can be returned, while still allowing a outer operations of A / B to follow a trait S. That way I can make C that uses A's setup S and returns a B impl T.

@mike@social.chinwag.org @jpm@aus.social @voltagex@aus.social Would be cool, but I'm in Brissy

Count Binface is giving me life, and oh how I wish we had someone like this in Australia.

@hailey@hails.org @xssfox@cloudisland.nz Spittin truths here holy shit

@mike@social.chinwag.org Yeah fair mate. If you ever want to know more lmk, I'm always happy to help out. But generally a pw + totp in a password manager is pretty good in many cases.

@decryption@aus.social Its william at firstyear dot id dot au - I sent you some yubikeys a few years back.

@LapTop006@aus.social @devopscats@toot.cat yeah always happy to help out :)

@ideogram@social.coop There is a gardening service called "lawn and order" around too.

@daisy@cloudisland.nz Daisy.

@mike@social.chinwag.org Solid response. But it is a lot easier to understand as a high-entropy password that is hot-glued into my password manager. But when I use it I can't be phished and a bunch of other attacks just go away. Generally my advice is engage with passkeys on your terms, not the websites or vendors.

At this point, I feel like it's actively negligent to have openssl or gnutls in your project as a dependency.

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz Yeah - facing a similar issue with mirror hosting rn too.

I need some advice on flashing a bare esp32-c3-12f board - with probes I can get a flasher to connect to serial and read it booting, but there are connectivity issues and it wont flash or reset. Pretty likely ive wired it wrong, but there is so much slop these days I cant find the wiring needed. Any help is welcome :)

@arichtman@eigenmagic.net Yeah I love to see all the places that Kanidm ends up in, it's quite fun.

@decryption@aus.social Can you email me about it and I'll help you out tomorrow?

@jana@social.jsteuernagel.de If I recall its based on what browser you use. https://github.com/kanidm/webauthn-rs/tree/master/cable-tunnel-server

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz I connected the strapping pins to the flasher, which I assume should set them correctly.

My partner got a new electric toothbrush and it seems the head has a pressure relief valve so that if you "suck" on the head you bring in air instead. Im struggling to find the design and engineering why this is part of the design. Any ideas?

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz Yeah. I think I probably need to step back and really just re-assert everything is working as I expect.

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz At country scale 6% is *A LOT* of users who missed this alert.

Maybe the bus should have worn high-vis.

@miniBill@mastodon.uno @peterwilsoncc@aus.social That leads to an attack called hash-schucking.
