☆ Why you should avoid use of one-time passwords sent by text

One of the most convenient methods for mobile phone users to log into apps — and one many companies rely on to grant access — is the one-time password, or OTP, often shared by text. Consumers are being urged to be mindful of the different types of one-time passwords, and the relative security risks versus benefits that each offers. Authenticator apps can still be vulnerable to some types of attacks like "adversary in the middle" but they're still safer than SMS, Allan said. Consider mobile app push for better protectionAn even more secure option for authentication works in tandem with mobile apps on a user's phone. Opt for hardware security key when possibleAn even better option is to use a hardware security key like Yubico.

Mike Epps may be the only stand-up comic alive who’s upset that Katt Williams didn’t insult him. In a now notorious, wildly viral three-hour interview with Shannon Sharpe (59 million views and counting) last month, the comic Katt Williams fired salvos at a festival’s worth of comics including Kevin Hart, Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer. Epps, unmentioned by Williams, said he was jealous. Hailing from Indianapolis, Epps is quick to tell you that he dropped out of high school and spent time in jail. “When I be doing coke,” he says, then slightly stammers and starts again: “When I used to do coke.” Then his eyebrows dance.

NEW YORK (AP) — “The Drew Barrymore Show” will begin airing fresh episodes on Monday but a lot of off-air controversy will be clinging to its typically bubbly host. That's because talk shows are covered under a separate contract — the so-called Network Code — from the one actors and writers are striking. People do not forget it.”Viewers who tune into new episodes of daytime talk shows these days will find a changed landscape. Guests aren’t always the A-listers with blockbuster TV shows or films to promote. But Bill Maher and Drew Barrymore and the hosts of ‘The View’ are not just getting by.

☆ Gen X is late to the leadership table in US politics, prompting the question: Will it ever produce a president?
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-28 | by ( Darren Samuelsohn | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +21 min

By historical standards, Gen X should be in charge of the US by now. Think of them as the godparents of the "Xennials" — those born in the late 1970s or early 1980s who aren't fully Gen X or millennial. No matter whether you deny the 61-year-old Obama is a boomer, Gen X is starting to get up there in age. Michael Ciaglo-Pool/Getty ImagesWhat's the US missing without a Gen X president? "It's like seeing a ghost that doesn't appear," she said of any expectation the presidency would just suddenly open up for Gen X.
