Omg I've been thinking about this... You have to use company provided tooling and they're sure to log every single thought of yours.

Technically i would think so too, but is that how it's implemented? (I legit don't know, but my feeling was always that you had to add them while they're present, especially as there's different passkeys for different sites, to do it offline do you pregenerate 100 keys for each device to assign later?)

The problem here is i want to have more than 1 yubikey, so if i lose it, all is not lost... I can't do that with the current implementations unless i present N yubikeys to every new account i make. Which makes an off-site backup yubikey impossible. With my current yubikey usage with password store, my "offline" yubikey can be brought in whenever i want to decrypt the passwords, including ones inserted while the key was in storage.

Also yubikeys have limited passkey slots (100, 25 with old firmware)

nah, i generally agree with you on single points of failure, i just don't agree that it would go on as long as 2 weeks. 24-48 hours i can believe, but at the absolute worst case I'd also expect anyone with minimal competence to have a plan to spin things up from the latest offsite backup somewhere else. (minimal competence is a big statement though). Even redundant setups can go down altogether from a fatfinger or automation gone wrong (see almost any outage from FAANG)

> stop a solar-storm

never heard of those taking out a data center, but i'm not highly educated on that one.

> A war on infrastructure

government datacenter will be first in line for fuel, generators, etc. A destroyed gov. datacenter would be the start of much more serious things to worry about.

> Just look at the Berlin outage where people had to go to hotpots

yeah, this one _is_ a little embarassing, but people who have to go to hotspots != datacenters

The original statement stands.

I still wish other smart watches behaved like a pebble, the interface was so intuitive you could use it to do the basics without looking at it most of the time.

It's like trying something so good it ruins every other one for you. The UX was just so well thought through i don't know how to explain it.
