Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.
And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export your tokens.
If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.
Tuning Intel Skylake and beyond for optimal performance and feature level support on Linux:
Note that on Skylake, Kabylake (and the now cancelled "Broxton") SKUs, functionality such as power saving, GPU scheduling and HDMI audio have been moved onto binary-only firmware, and as such, the GuC and the HuC blobs must be loaded at run-time to access this functionality.
Enabling GuC and HuC on Skylake and above requires a few extra parameters be passed to the kernel before boot.
Instructions provided for both Fedora and Ubuntu (including Debian):
Note that the firmware for these GPUs is often packaged by your distributor, and as such, you can confirm the firmware blob's availability by running:

Update 04.04.2020: Please take a look at many of the forks of this gist or comments, where people have updated or improved upon the code. I have not needed this in a long time, which is why the original document has not been updated and the code probably does not work. Stay secure and only copy and paste code that you trust.
There is an increasing count of applications which use Authy for two-factor authentication. However many users who aren't using Authy, have their own authenticator setup up already and do not wish to use two applications for generating passwords.
Since I use 1Password for all of my password storing/generating needs, I was looking for a solution to use Authy passwords on that. I couldn't find any completely working solutions, however I stumbled upon a gist by Brian Hartvigsen. His post had a neat code with it to generate QR codes (beware, thro

#Purpose: Colorized man pages, with random themes seeded by | |
# the command and/or section. That is, every man page | |
# has its own consistent color scheme. For example | |
# man tar is always yellow, green, and blue, man less | |
# is always pink, blue, and yellow, etc.(on zsh, anyway) | |
#Note: Colorization will differ between bash and zsh, since their | |

#Requires: bash or zsh(may support others), and perl | |
#Setup: Name it .mancolor.sh, source it in your bashrc/zshrc, |
