> uhm, are you saying its not possible to require an actual password to unlock osx?

uhm, are saying that i'm saying that? if so, please show me where i said that. thank you



no, thats why i was asking, as i was not fully sure what you meant


what im saying is that i dont want to type in a long ass password all the time

and biometrics have "legal problems" as stated above

a pin or allowing touchid to automatically be disabled after a period of time or computer movement ("please enter password to login") would be greatly appreciated

as it stands now, i have biometrics disabled.


seems reasonable
