"Wiki" normally refers to user-editable sites, while the graph part is normally implied from being a website. Perhaps Wiregraph would be more accurate? Maybe Wireview? These kinds of networking sites are often called looking glasses, so Wireglass might also work, besides the confusion with the material.

Can I use it without installing their software on my smartphone? Question is rhetorical - of course not, and your smartphone also needs to pass Google's or Apple's remote attestation schemes. Good riddance.

Is it really just PayPal left offering a sane online payment service?

Yes, you can. They have an app, but also integrations into bank apps.

That's interesting. In Belgium the pre-integration Payconiq could not do that.

Genuine answers:

- because I like backing up my data, especially credentials

- because I like looking at how things work in practice - you are on a website called hacker news after all

No, the private key is generated and stored client-side, and never sent to the server. Even if that wasn't the case, how I store my credentials is none of the websites' business, and my own hardware should do as I say.

this is so slop-reeky that the note should reveal the prompt used as well!

It's an AI image generator. There's thousands of tools that do this exact thing, and it seems their only "benefit" is infesting search engine image results with their horrible low-quality output.

...

On a related note, here's another great LLM feature Microsoft seemingly failed to promote: instead of returning bits of page content or the description meta tag, the Bing API now gives you utter slop[0] for website descriptions!

It's more than an image generator, and if you pop open the UX, it's somewhat thoughtfully laid out.

Image generator meets editor meets page design.

Will age verification require the use of software I can't view the source of and/or can't patch (due to remote attestation), and presumably only runs on user-hostile systems (Android with Google Services and iOS)?

It's hardly zero-trust in that case.

Off the top of my head, because

- You're just moving your trust elsewhere, this time to a private corporation (whoever makes the CPU / TPM / other "trusted" component).

- This doesn't guarantee voter anonymity the way paper ballots do. Considering the analog hole and the complexity of computers, I can think of a billion ways a motivated and resourceful Mallory could to connect someone to their ballot.

> This doesn't guarantee voter anonymity the way paper ballots do.

You're saying that with a lot of assurance, but in my opinion that's still to be debated. We can build something that will keep at least a degree of separation between the identity that points to a specific individual and the identity that casts the ballot.
