 Sigismund#0850 | I see | 16:56:16 |
| Sigismund#0850 | thank you | 16:56:22 |
 Badger | Oh Valynor I moved to the 2FA app now | 16:56:34 |
| Badger | did it when online learning got too boring XD | 16:56:43 |
 Valynor | Badger: btw I thought hard about why it's showing the recently expired code, too ... | 16:56:57 |
 Shipp | a bricked phone is a secure phone, I recommend not making it usable as that can only lead to problems | 16:57:03 |
| Valynor | Badger: I think it's likely for those rare occasions when the servers clock might be off | 16:57:36 |
| Badger | and whats the reason about it showing the old one | 16:57:39 |

yes do you have a usb flash drive you are not using? | 16:57:49 |
| Badger | so when might that help then? | 16:57:57 |
| Badger | I presume the server clock as in the 2FA servers clock? | 16:58:25 |
|  [Fe]ic. ඞ changed their display name from [Fe]ic. ඞ to [Fe]ic. ඞ#7843. | 16:58:28 |
| [Fe]ic. ඞ changed their display name from [Fe]ic. ඞ#7843 to [Fe]ic. ඞ. | 16:58:30 |
 Paul97 | yes | 16:58:30 |
| Valynor | Badger: the TOTP 2FA codes are time based and only valid for 30 seconds ... so if one of the clocks is off more than a couple seconds you've got a problem | 16:59:04 |

yes https://rufus.ie/ for burning an iso

You can check out many guides on how to do it but I think it's pretty straightforward
| 16:59:45 |
| Badger | ah hopefully I won't need it, so if the main code doesn't work you use the previous code | 16:59:45 |
| mazerfaker |
only valid for 30 seconds
based

| Badger | I'm curious how the 2FA app and site know which code it wants and all that | 17:00:12 |
 loudzeaciel | I'm going to try Fedora, I've been recommended it elsewhere | 17:00:12 |
| Valynor | Badger: yeah I guess that's the idea behind showing the expired code, too | 17:00:16 |
| Badger | I wrote a review for the app too | 17:00:40 |
| Valynor | Badger: it's simply a hash based on time + a shared seed | 17:00:45 |

I'm going to try Fedora, I've been recommended it elsewhere You got nvidia gpu's? | 17:00:47 |
| Badger | it didn't have a few icons for the apps I use but seems to work well | 17:00:54 |
| Paul97 | alr. so do I just download those on my usb and then try it out? | 17:01:00 |
| mazerfaker | Paul97 and do you have an nvidia gpu? | 17:01:03 |
| Valynor | Badger: you can add your own icons | 17:01:22 |
