Re: [gentoo-user] Google pop3 authentication failure
They flushed all the app password creds and forced 2fa. Need to go through the accounts.google.com login to recover.

My plans to send a load of e2e messages through a mix net just to wind them up. More worried about someone picking my phone up popping the sim card out. Then requesting account recovery from it and plugging it back in now : / sort of defeated the point in having tpm backed devices. How did you even enable the oauth thing ? only had security device or push to an authenticated device available. Then lied and forced enabling sms as a 'recovery' option. --
Re: [gentoo-user] Seamonkey automatic email download after switch to Oauth2
They turned off the ability to use smtp pop3 or imap over cleartext a while ago. They only expose it over tls wrapped ports. Your client wouldn't even be able to get as far as sending it. Also forces SASL which is tldr for echo 'username password'|base64 before sending it. Once you enable 2fa for the account, you can recreate an application password. Funnily enough my old password was stronger than a 16 char string : / all in all they just force reduced password length. Whilst forcing sms verification allowing account take over from sim swapping :'( For the record this is sent from mutt using app password without oauth. --

They only forced turning 2fa on. Once you turn it on click the app password button it generates a 16 character passphrase. Then works exactly the same way it used to. --

Re: [gentoo-user] Reproducible Installation Lists?
emerge -avbk $(tr '\n' ' ' < /var/lib/portage/world) If your doing more than one box binhost / binpkg has a far higher return for alot more effort upfront provided you can live with -mtune=generic.
