Howdy – Windows Hello style facial authentication for Linux
> A note on security
> This package is in no way as secure as a password and will never be. Although it's harder to fool than normal face recognition, a person who looks similar to you, or a well-printed photo of you could be enough to do it. Howdy is a more quick and convenient way of logging in, not a more secure one.Congrats to the author(s) for shipping a library, and having done so for some time now it seems (which is more than I've ever done).Can I ask if there's much of a point, though? Like why bother with the trouble of setting this up if I can just print a photo and have it unlock? At that point you're better off with a very weak and easy-to-remember password, no?
