During the Berlin XMPP sprint, some XMPP developers worked on message formatting. Previously, formatting was done using simple markup (e.g. *bold*), which sometimes leads to unintended formatting and is limited in functionality. We now decided to transmit formatting information outside of the normal text, with optional fallback to markup for legacy clients. We worked on improving the specification and on support in three different clients, including @dino.

New, by me: A federal district court in New York ruled that U.S. border agents must obtain a warrant before searching the electronic devices of Americans and international travelers crossing the U.S. border.
The judge warned that had they ruled in the government's favor, this ruling could have be used to target political opponents, who "would only need to travel once through an international airport for the government to gain unfettered access" to their devices.

Authy is not a good candidate for authenticator apps. Like the big brands, they are trying to masquerade a simple, local program as something that requires a cloud account.
KeePassXC also belongs in the authenticator column. It has built-in TOTP.

This, @EUCommission , would be a fantastic opportunity to ditch Microsoft altogether and embrace some European-maintained open source solution instead for your 40K employees. The EU government depending on non-EU infrastructure is not good for strategic autonomy – and that's on top on digital surveillance by American tech corps being against our data protection laws.

@hbons one time I encountered a credit card payment form that insisted adamantly the ZIP code was mandatory
After a bit of searching I found out there's a "magic" ZIP code that means "elsewhere not in the US" that they're supposed to accept (it might be 99999).
Still extra silly though.
US cards don't use PIN. The US banking industry declared their customers too stupid to remember a PIN.
Note that last time I encountered this was in 2018 as I haven't driven south of the wall since.
@hub they USED to not have a PIN. As mentioned else thread, in recent years the CC circuits have started a "forced" upgrade campaign: in case of fraud (and it's extremely easy with mag band and no PIN) the retailer is not covered by insurance and is responsible out of pocket.
This is making a lot of them upgrade.
But of course there's a giant inertia (and backlog).
@hub @renatoram my bank offered me the option of setting a PIN for my new credit cards. But with 1 exception, I've never used it.
Cards don't just get a PIN code, they also have a priority which can be "use PIN always" / "use PIN only in unattended POS" / various. The bank set mine to "Unattended" which means I can use it to buy things at automated kiosks (like for a train ticket). But if I go to a checkout counter with a clerk, the PIN *cannot* be used, and a signature is required instead.
