pseudorandom name posted:you don’t even have to go to the demon core, there’s a long history of scientists accidentally or deliberately infecting themselves with the diseases they were studying or treating to this day even. I was on a hike with some scientists last year and they were casually chatting about the time they aerosolized a set of brains full of prions and didn’t have any ppe. they were like “mmmm. that might have been a bad idea, but we won’t know for 30 years unfortunately”

At the end of the production step we just used to brush the powder containing all the nanotubes into a plastic tub from the sides of the reactor vessel, obviously tons of it was aerolised during this process though. For protection we taped a bin bag to the opening of the chamber and just tried not to breathe too much in. We were also somehow evaporating about 10 liters of toluene into the lab every day, even though we were supposed to be reclaiming it. After about 6 months of this the Uni suddenly realised what was happening and we all had to go and get our lung function tested, get fitted for full facemasks, and change our risk assessment forms to say that we were going to always use them from now on. I guess I'll find out how bad it was if I get lung cancer in a few decades.

they call it lastpass because it’s the last place you want to see your passwords stored in

i use strongbox for ios and macos, keepass on windows, and sync with sync.com worksforme syncing to ios requires a manual wifi sync, but the amount of new things i sign up for these days is close to zero, so i don't really need to update it that often

https://www.goto.com/blog/our-response-to-a-recent-security-incident quote:Our investigation to date has determined that a threat actor exfiltrated encrypted backups from a third-party cloud storage service related to the following products: Central, Pro, join.me, Hamachi, and RemotelyAnywhere. We also have evidence that a threat actor exfiltrated an encryption key for a portion of the encrypted backups. The affected information, which varies by product, may include account usernames, salted and hashed passwords, a portion of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) settings, as well as some product settings and licensing information. In addition, while Rescue and GoToMyPC encrypted databases were not exfiltrated, MFA settings of a small subset of their customers were impacted. looks like these weren't lastpass backups (yet)

I already encountered someone attempting to cope with stanning for LastPass for years essentially, "Is there a way to force our tenant to enforce new vault passwords to 1/100,000 collision entropy and reset vault passwords that don't satisfy?" buddy buddy it's dead, there is no saving this

you can't shift blame for LastPass's fuckups and cryptographic weaknesses on to the user

Worst case scenario, you miss out on a few rounds of canasta, plus you forwarded the cause of science by three centuries. I punch those numbers into my calculator, it makes a happy face.

Im gonna out myself as an idiot for a moment here and ask a probably dumb question. For the people syncing their keepass are you all using an associated token for the database to restrict access as well as the u/pw? Ive always been shy about syncing since duplicating the database always felt less secure.

ZeusCannon posted:Im gonna out myself as an idiot for a moment here and ask a probably dumb question. I don't bother because I figured that if either device is compromised it's game over anyway but I guess it's an extra prevention against losing the vault file as long as you don't transfer the token between devices over the internet or something but I might be being stupid here and probably should

i used a key file along with a password when i used keepass and i made sure it was excluded from e: correction, i did back it up but i didn't sync it to the cloud in the open or sync it between devices Cold on a Cob fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Jan 24, 2023 |

post hole digger posted:the hits just keep coming in password manager land surprised to see safari vulnerable, for all the downsides of built in pwm they're usually pretty good at not auto-filling the wrong page no? or am i just that naive? ![]()

I'm pretty sure safari doesn't autofill at all, you need to take action to fill the field every time they probably mean that it will still offer to do that and do it if you say yes on insecure pages

haveblue posted:I'm pretty sure safari doesn't autofill at all, you need to take action to fill the field every time ah ok, gotcha. bitwarden also only does it that way, which tends to be more secure according to them, doesn't inject anything into the page then iirc

i still use the base keepass2 client despite not having a windows box anymore, just because it's the only one with the synchronize feature that lets me painlessly sync clients against a kdbx with zero chance of collisions thanks to its synchronize with file feature and changing things now would be more than 0 work ![]() the only quirk i've noticed is tray icon not being there in wayland, but i open it by typing kee into the app launcher anyway

one time in second grade i was whittling, and i wasn't using proper knife technique and i cut the inside of my left leg then a bunch of old men fell over themselves to tell me that if i were a proper wood researcher i would've known better than to cut towards myself, that i was very stupid, and that if THEY had been whittling, they never would have done it the way that i did. oddly enough, many of those men were missing fingers. anyway, they were right, of course, but i still think that event said more about them than it did about me
