Allowing Alternative 2FA Methods

I'm asking this of all financial companies I do business with, so my apology for the copy and paste. Any plans to offer alternative 2FA methods instead of SMS or email? May using an authenticator, passkey, or something along those lines?

Creating Projects For Hermes

I hope I used the right flair for this. I come from a Claude Desktop background and I'm used to creating projects depending on whatever goals and workflow I have in mind. I see Hermes doesn't have this. Is there another way this can be accomplished?

What I looking for is to say create a folder called "HOUSEHOLD" and throw everything in there from bills, receipts, budgets, renters insurance, etc. From there I would like Hermes (using Qwen3.5 9b through LLM Studio) to synthesize the info, and parse out due dates (adding them to Google Calendar) or tasks (adding them to Todoist). I would like to have a daily briefing prepared by 5AM each morning giving me an overview (dashboard, report, etc) of what's on tap.

This is one example, but I would like other projects that will reference the HOUSEHOLD project, like project that may need to refer to HOUSEHOLD regarding tech expenses for hardware purchases related to my business, and another project assisting with my relocation to Thailand next year, that may need financial information, calendar dates, etc.

I like the idea of keeping everything local so this is why I'm turning to Hermes.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Can Ravenous Swarm be used to Spread Contagion

Been playing POE2 since the 0.5 release so I'm very new to the came. Playing a ED/Contagion Lich Witch and I noticed that with Unearth, I can spread the contagion to other enemies of the corpses were infected with contagion upon death, which basically allow me to cast contagion and run hitting ED along the way (in clusters of course).

My question: Is it possible to use RS the same way? If so, what support gems would help with this? This would be good to use in farming maps and what not. Thoughts?

Bought two MacBooks from Best Buy. Got a sketchy verification call. Never again.

Ordered a MacBook Air and a MacBook Pro, paid through PayPal (PP Visa). Shortly after, I got a call from someone claiming to be from Best Buy's Purchase Verification Department.

The rep started asking questions that immediately made me uncomfortable: Why was I buying two computers? My wife's name. Her date of birth. Our home address.

I told her repeatedly that I wasn't comfortable answering those kinds of questions, especially in an era where data breaches, identity theft, and phone scams are rampant. She just kept pushing, saying it was "standard purchase verification." I hung up and blocked the number.

Here's the kicker: the email from Best Buy saying my order was "selected for verification" arrived 30 minutes AFTER the call. By that point I was already at the store picking up my order with zero issues.

I don't know if that call was legitimate or a scam piggybacking on my order. Either way, Best Buy's verification process, if that's what it was, is wildly invasive and poorly designed. You shouldn't be calling customers and demanding sensitive personal information over the phone with no way to verify who you are.

Won't be ordering online from them again.
