@musicman Wow. I suppose they'll start wearing body armor or maybe chain mail when they go on such raids. -

When working with family members and personal friends, telling them to use a copying and pasting password manager instead of the browser’s built-in password remembering function (or using the same password everywhere) is a losing battle. It is necessary for a good pwdmgr to have such extensions for browsers and certain other software. -

@mangeurdenuage From what the KeepassXC site says, development in the KeepassX project is nearly dead. Not saying it is true, but there were a lot of fairly old patches awaiting action when I looked. -

I haven’t checked. I’ll look soon. There are also some security risks involved in copying to the system clipboard, which is why finding a password manager that could directly talk to the browser became an issue. -

There's also regular Keepass, (keepass2 in Debian and Ubuntu), but it is based on the Microsoft dotnet platform, so it requires Mono. I try not to install #Mono on any non-Windows platforms (and it really isn't needed on Windows, since much of dotnet is already installed. -

Meanwhile, I still have KeepassX installed, so I think I’m going back to it.
Or, interestingly, there is now a version of Bruce Schneier’s Password Safe in the Debian & Ubuntu repos. I might switch over to that. -

I switched to KeepassXC because of the browser extensions. However, once the extension checks and finds out there’s an updated version of the password manager, it refuses to connect to the old version. I need to file a bug, because I’m not about to install software that is not in the standard OS repositories. -

@musicman I bought some fall-themed Samuel Adams recently. Normally, after a few sips, I sleep like a rock, but I finished a whole bottle and had a sleepless night. I'm getting close to just becoming a non-drinker. -

@mangeurdenuage I remember seeing results from a survey of US news media in the 1980s. On average, they had a very different set of beliefs than the rest of the populace. They also believed they should alter their reports in order to persuade the rest of us to adopt their views. Later, the right-wing got their own media, which did the same thing from the other direction. The … -

NY Post says the NY Mets probably regret letting Justin Turner go seven years ago. He's been a key postseason performer for the Dodgers every year since then.
