1Password Tricks
AgileBits has just released 1Password for Linux in beta, which is super nice! Up until now I had to use the web version, or the 1Password extension in Firefox, when I was on my Linux laptop. To celebrate this, I’m going to share my favourite 1Password trick, which AgileBits incidentally kinda-blogged about not too long ago.
One of the weakest spots in your personal security are the so-called “security questions” that websites force you to enter, and from which somebody can social-engineer their way through your account. Password managers let you store, well, passwords, but you can really store anything you want in there, so why not store stupid answers to those questions? Instead of writing a “real” answer, you can just generate a password, put it in the answer field, and store it in your password manager for later! Simple but effective.
I generally use the word generator in 1Password, instead of the random character string, because there’s a chance you have to speak that answer aloud to some phone operator in the future… “My mother’s maiden name? Why, yes, it’s ‘correct horse battery staple’, sir, thank you”.
I hope it helps!
Hereâs my Chaosium autumn bundle, fresh from the friendly postman! I probably wonât get to the bottom row anytime soon, but I will definitely start reading the top row right away!
Haha, the Pendragon 6th edition QuickStart/preview includes one drawing of a woman knight somewhere on a page and there are a couple people getting angry and âworriedâ on the forums. I shouldnât be surprised but still…
We watched Return Of The Jedi tonight with the kids and one of them named the ewoks âmini fluffy grizzly bearsâ but then changed it to âhamster Chewbaccasâ, and I think that second one is a winner…
Well thatâs it, I delivered my first (quite rough in places) draft of âThe Parchments of Tamâ for the Journal dâIndochine Kickstarter… 27k words of Mythos-infused spy thriller action in 1945 Hue!
Well, it looks like I donât need to think too much about who to vote for in my districtâŚ
I hadnât paid attention lately to the news in France but hey guess what? Looks like the government thought it would be a good idea to establish a curfew in big cities to flatten the second Covid-19 wave. Thatâs gonna go well with French people right? đđ
Itâs framed!
This was an appropriate T-shirt to wear this weekend.
