To figure out if your email addresses are part of a known breach. Also, start using a password manager (https://bitwarden.com)
A good alternative to Bitwarden is KeePass/KeepassXC btw
A good alternative to keepass is a self hosted vaultwarden btw. (compiled from bitwardens opensource code iirc)
I agree. But I think is much easier for people to use KeePass compared to self hosting Vaultwarden
Vaultwarden is not compiled from Bitwarden’s code, it’s a separate project and codebase but designed to be compatible with Bitwarden’s API.
Bitwarden is open source and you can self-host it but IIRC it’s a bit more complex and resource-hungry than Vaultwarden.
They have totally different design goals which is why Bitwarden is more resource-hungry and more complex to deploy. Bitwarden can scale up to large use cases such as companies with hundreds of thousands of employees (it’s what they run on the hosted version, after all), whereas Vaultwarden is designed to be small and light for home use cases where you almost always have <10 users total.
I agree, I do this and it works great.
Nothing can beat passwords written on paper though
Scissors can.
So I will write them on a rock, instead.
But paper beats rock
I was talking about digital espionage, assuming one is not stupid enough to record their offline passwords digitally
But rock beats scissors. What if paper has an alliance with rock to be protected from scissors in return for paper not covering rock?
Physical access can. Indentations on the below page can. Fire and moisture can. Someone looking over your shoulder can.
I found keepassium for the work phone and I was in love that I could keep a separate db with my OTPs under a password and backed up.
Then I left that job and had to split my OTPs. Vanilla keepass for droid will gives me the OTP values for gitlab etc, so it’s good there, but Vanilla keepassium for Android has no camera/QR->OTP input that I have yet, one that works like keepassium does and is all compatible down the line. I’d love to keep using it to maintain the existing separate keepass OTP db I have.
Do you (or anyone) know of a good combo for droid that gets
- keepass
- backup to box/gdoc/etc
- qr for OTP
In one final package? Does XC do it in a way we think may be compatible?
Keepass2Android does all that on android. It natively supports Dropbox, google drive, one drive, nextcloud, pcloud, and mega, plus you can use WebDAV or sftp. When editing an entry, the totp setup has the ability to scan qr codes with the camera. Plus, the whole thing is free and open source.
They even have a package on F-Droid, though that build lacks the built-in support for cloud syncing (due to F-Droid restrictions prohibiting binaries, I think).
I’ve used this app for years on android, paired with various cloud sync options as providers change their restrictions and capabilities. On desktop, I use keepassxc.
Hm i switched from KeePass to Bitwarden because the latter lets me use my passwords on multiple devices and as a Firefox extension that enters my credentials at a shortcut.
Can you elaborate why you think KeePass is better?
I think it’s more flexible. Also, due to the databases just being normal files you can sync them with syncthing between your devices.
In my case I run a NAS at home on which they’re stored so I don’t need to sync them. I just open them directly from the NAS.
I do all of that with Keepass, for what it’s worth.

All this does is return a page of memes when i search
Spoiler alert: Yes. Yes it has.
Is this really that useful though?
I pretty much just assume that I’m getting pwned regularly.
Obviously the password manager advice is very useful.
Is this really that useful though?
It’s very useful if you don’t use a password manager and/or reuse passwords.
The most useful part about it to me is the API. You can tie it in to Active Directory to blacklist all hashes that appear in any breach, plus expire/force a password change if any user on your domain uses a password that has been in a breach. It completely eliminates that vector from threat actors immediately.
So yeah, I would call this intensely useful.

This trick alone makes my Lemmy addiction pay off. Thanks for even suggesting such magic is possible. Adding that as a task after my samba-AD rebuild this very f’n week.
👍
So who has the highest score? I’ve got 21 on my OG email and 13 on my primary 🤣
30 on my OG and what use to be my primary up until a year ago.
and if my Email is part of any kind of breach, is thier something else I should do beside changing my password ?
PS: I do have 2FA activated already
Use a unique password for everything. I recommend bitwarden
Thanks

It’s a place to share links to interesting or unknown sites, old style websites, personal websites, link collections etc.
Fantastic list, thanks.
That’s a great list, I have bookmarked a bunch of those entries, Thanks for sharing it.
What is different about your links that i can’t click on a single one? I’m on mobile and touching them does nothing, but i can click on others’ links.
I don’t know. They’re formatted the regular way
They all work fine for me but I’m using Connect.
works fine for me on Memmy iOS
I can’t seem to click this
I will spend a good amount of time on those sites! Fascinating!
Nice list, thanks

I use this to cut through the bullshit of Prime Day deals or Black Friday. It shows you the historical price of a product.
Keepa.com is also really good
Crazy how I have a bunch of alerts set up on here, prime day started and I didn’t have a single item drop in price.
Also I believe there is a browser plug-in for this as well to make it even easier to use.
I’ll also come in just to mention the android app “TryCamel”. Being able to conveniently add things when on mobile was a game changer for me.
I wanted to buy a soundbar, looked through all the prime deals and they were kind of meh. Then I checked CCC and saw there was a Sony one cheaper then normal and not even “on sale” or associated with their prime day event. So stupid, but I got my cheapish soundbar.
Same! I find the alerts come at times when there are no holidays or events. Like on a random Tuesday afternoon in the middle of June I get an alert that a game or movie is $20 when it’s been $40-60 the last 6 months. Prime Day comes around and it’s “on sale” for $55.
I literally just used this site last week to set up a price alert for a purchase.
Noticed via their chart that the item I wanted to buy (an air purifier) went on sale every few weeks from $340 to $199. I set the alert for $200, and the next day it emailed me saying the price had dropped. Saved me 140 bucks which was awesome.
Works for Amazon.ca links as well.
It plots every genre of music on a 2D spectrum (“The calibration is fuzzy, but in general down is more organic, up is more mechanical and electric; left is denser and more atmospheric, right is spikier and bouncier.”)
You can click on any genre and get band recommendations.
Or you can search for a specific band and find other bands plotted similarly.
As someone who doesn’t use Spotify, this is amazing for music discovery. I should have been in bed a while ago but keep finding new groups to listen to.
From the description, this site seems to either be a Spotify research project, or at least powered by Spotify data in some way. It’s not clear to me.
Every Noise at Once is an ongoing attempt at an algorithmically-generated, readability-adjusted scatter-plot of the musical genre-space, based on data tracked and analyzed for 6,259 genre-shaped distinctions by Spotify as of 2023-07-12.
Personally, I cancelled my spotify account and moved to a combination of Plex and Tidal, but this project is just too cool not to use.
Maybe this will help.
I LOVE “dissolved girl” but I’m not as Gaga about the rest of the band’s material. That sultry style cut with that music tempo is amazing.
It’s like Finger Eleven has their their one massive departure track ‘paranoid’ – all good, but very different.
I’ll be checking this in the hopes it’ll match a track and give me more sexy molasses for my brain.
OMG this is awesome, thank you. Except it’s going to consume way too much of my life noiw

Wow the CNN lite thing is awesome! I think it’d be great to set up a permanent redirect to it from the CNN website. Probably will use TamperMonkey and set it up
Wasn’t CNN bought by a Trumpite a while ago?
If memory hold true yes. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/sep/10/objective-cnn-rightwing-week-in-patriarchy
Semi-related is the Boring Report. It’s an attempt to use modern LLM to remove sensationalism and bias from current media headlines.
Was about to post the same exact thing. Good job.
CNN is now owned by a MAGA-loving billionaire. Definitely not a liberal news source at all - hence the many changes happening at a slow trickle.

What DID happen?! Why are there only questions on this site, I need answers.
Edit: Nevermind, figured it out:
The United States abandoned the gold standard. I am guessing the point of this website is to suggest that was a bad thing. There is a lot of debate around the gold standard and most “mainstream” economists have no love for it, so I’m not saying the website is right or wrong, just that that’s what it’s about.
Let’s not forget that Nixon also got the controlled substance act passed in 1971 and kick started the war on drugs.

They link up with your bank account and generate as many virtual cards as you want that are locked to the first vendor you use them on so if say McDonald’s get their card data stolen it won’t be able to charge the card for anything other than McDonald’s.
They also make their money from the card fees so they manage to be both free and not sell your data.
Just don’t use a VPN on their site or they will lock your account for days pending review for “suspicious activity”
I stopped using them after that
Oh that sucks, ive been using a vpn for a long time without issue, i can see why youd stop using them.
That’s strange. From the moment I created my account I’ve always had a VPN on
I have been using them for years and always use a VPN (on my home router) without issue.
You really should state up front that this is USA only
Didn’t know it was, my bad!
You can also set limits per day, month, year. Or make cards single-use. And use random names instead of your actual name if you want.
