  • Ok. Did a quick read. And I think I mixed my words a little.

    Yes, Active Directory supports TOTP fine.

    But my understanding is rollouts can disable TOTP, and instead force the use of the proprietary scheme requiring the MS Authenticator app (which also supports TOTP) that uses push notifications to the device.

    As is the case with my employer. They didn’t enable TOTP, and I am unable to use the provided MFA QR code with 1Password.













  • Ditto… ish.

    In my dream I mixed up some constraints of the real-world system. I still came up with an elegant solution that would have worked if the dreams constraints were true. Except they weren’t and the solution was useless.

    Bonus was the dream-solution exposed a “front door” so to speak on the real problem and I felt dumb that I even spent 5 minutes thinking about it.



  • Plug a USB-C screen into a USB-C port. Will it work?

    Maybe? If the manufacturer has wired the port to the GPU for DP/HDMI alt mode it might.

    … but you’ve used this display on this laptop before?

    Try another port! Nope, still nothing.

    Maybe it’s the cable? Rummage around through your cables and try a few out. Hope you don’t have any from the 2010s because there’s a good chance they’ll ruin your device.

    The screen works! But performance is terrible, why? It’s running in DisplayLink mode.

    You give up and suffer through.
