You can't say with certainty that you'd derive no stimulation from that, since you have not tried deriving stimulation from it.
The multi-billion dollar entertainment industry isn't there because we need it. It's there because we like it. What we need is to connect with the real world, which is a skill, and as such requires practice.
If you aren't willing to work on your social skills, you need to stay in a position where you don't need them.
The radios would need to have a very, very short range to avoid this. You'd need to know that everyone who can hear you can also see you (and potentially follow you if they'd like a word face to face), which is the accountability aspect that's missing from online interactions.
Yeah, password on its own is weak. Any factor + password will always be a lot more secure than password alone OR the other factor alone, but pairing stronger factors of course results in stronger pairings.
Passkey is a device check (the key lives on your device and nowhere else), so it relies on your device security, even if it's just a PIN...and there has to be a backup option in case you lose access to that device, in which case the account only ends up as secure as that authentication method...which hopefully isn't password alone.
I see that the comment I initially replied to has been edited, but it still reads as though the second factor of 2FA is itself 2FA:
Because passwordless authentication is awesome and needs to be the standard. It's basically just skipping the password and going straight to 2FA, which is the main security behind any account that you've got 2FA on.
2FA stands for two-factor authentication. The typical case you're describing:
Factor 1: password Factor 2: device check, usually
That second step of device verification itself isn't 2FA, it's only the second factor of that particular 2FA, and the reason your account is more secure behind it isn't because it's a device check but because it's a second factor. There's not really a "main" security check in 2FA because having two is the whole point.
I do have thoughts about passwordless as a standalone security measure, but that's not at all what I'm addressing here. I will add, however, that since passwordless can only ever be as strong as the security on your email account...it might seem like enough if your email is protected by 2FA—but not if you mistakenly leave your email logged in on a device someone else has access to, which may sound stupid but it definitely happens.
I'm not defending passwords specifically. You could do better 2FA with email + biometrics, although of course device authentication is only as secure as the device itself—but that's entirely beside the point, which is that there must be two factors if you're going to call something two factor authentication.
If you skip the password then you're back down to just 1FA, it just happens to be the factor that used to be second.
TJ's isn't boutique, though. Before I actually shopped there, I conflated it with Fresh Market for years, but it turned out they were far and away the cheapest grocery option anywhere near me until we got Aldi.
I shop Aldi more now because our TJ's is always so busy, but since they're all store-brand, their prices are still usually on the low side (other than meats).
If this is in the U.S., teachers typically have to buy their own supplies on meager salaries. Watching one kid literally eat those supplies must be pretty demoralizing.
It doesn't sound like they're necessarily his erasers though
It's generally tougher in the U.S. because a lot of our smaller cities were founded post-automobile, post-suburbia and post-shopping malls, and as such they don't have town centers. At best they might have a main retail corridor.
