That is terrible! I can't use my very pretty "retirement machine shop" for the same reason.
I hate cell phones, but I can see by very large phone. I'd prefer authentication via email.
Not being able to use your machine shop is even worse. I don’t miss my cell phone at all. I would have ditched it long ago, but since I had a 90 mile commute to work, and a 90 mile return trip home, I had one for emergencies that might arise on the road. Thankfully I never had any. But it was worth having for that reason.
