So there is a real solution to that problem! Thanks a lot for sharing it

Good point, sadly ios only, I'm on android: https://ente.com/help/auth/migration/authy/ Or do you mean it also works on android but not documented?

I think they allow importing from Authy but only on rooted phones. I missed the train to move away from Authy in 2024 and now the only non-root option is to regenerate the seed from every provider one by one. As other commenters said, rooting my main phone would lock me out of banking apps. I suppose I could find an old phone, sync from authy cloud, root it, and then migrate, but then generating new seeds is probably both safer and faster at that point.

Thanks for the summary. I agree with you about 2FA, but it's still annoying, I was hoping I would find a lazier solution.

Slightly unrelated: is it relatively safe to root android phones nowadays or should I stick to the unrooted standard android? The reason I'm asking is that I'm stuck with authy as a MFA code app, and would like to move to something that has both desktop and phone support, and my conclusion is I'd need to root my phone to get access to the actual MFA seeds (they don't allow exports to keep you stuck in their app).

I was also thinking that this is almost too good to be true

Yeah, apparently

It's partly true: this only applies to consumer cards. That's why many EU banks still offer corporate credit cards with huge cashback etc. For example, revolut offers no cashback in France on their metal cards if you have a consumer account, but up to 1% cashback on the same card if you have a "freelance" account. https://www.revolut.com/fr-FR/metal/

Second thing: interchange fees are not the only fees that your typical store has to pay, the total fees are much higher. I think the EU essentially capped Visa/Mastercard profit in the EU, more than they capped small business fees for card payment.

For those who had access, how does it compare IRL with GLM 5.3 ? iirc both models are similar in terms of benchmarks ?

> Models Are Getting Dumber on Purpose

I know is editorialized, but a more accurate title to this content would be either :

Models Are Getting Ignorant on Purpose

or

Models Are Getting Less Knowledgeable on Purpose

We are already seeing math problems being solved by AI on a weekly basis now. Maybe at some point a breakthrough in math will cause a breakthrough in physics?

It makes me wonder if the model is the limit here or if it's the harness: e.g. give GPT 5.6 or Fable a team of 20 people that can easily interact with the real world and let it do whatever in order to "make a breakthrough" in physics; do you think it would manage to?

good find! This sounds a bit like what Meta was doing with the earlier Llama models?

There is also this paragraph in their licence that is smart marketing-wise:

Yes it's true that it's not super clear whether these prices are permanent or short term promotions. On the other hand, there are so many providers making promotional offerings that you could probably easily switch from one to another should their prices go up?
