And that's the point, a password vault is literally all your eggs in one basket. It only gives security if you are secure across the board.
I won't say which manager I use, but I used a 'tool' on it which cracked my access password in very little time revealing all my passwords. - a bit worrying.
Do I still use that manager? Yes, it's convenient and fits my risk profile.
Have I upgraded my master password? Yes. Less convenient, but is all a trade off.
If I was a higher profile target, my assessment may be different.
Size: height depth width.... Can be easy to miss one dimension. Energy rating - obvious reasons Noise depending on the room it's in Ergonomics - can you reach all the bits you need to... Imagine filling it with your weekly shop. - better energy rating=more insulation=less space. Doors can generally be reversed, but check. Some FFs have two compressor circuits, others only one. Can be important if keeping it in a garage. Do you need a water cooler/ice maker thing? More to clean, more to go wrong. YOUR FRIDGE DOES NOT NEED AN INTERNET CONNECTION Nor does it need funky windows & stuff Self defrost is a must. We spent ages discussing colour, now you can barely see it behind pictures & papers etc.
Think " is this a useful feature for me, or is it marketing fluff? "
Finally, while a fridge should be a long term purchase, is just a box that gets cold. Don't lose sleep over it.
"And nothing was ever heard from him again, except for the sound of Tubular Bells."
That when I grew up I'd know what I was doing and my body would work.
Not really read up on it yet, but can you do serial over Bluetooth? Quick Google gave me this: https://raspberry-projects.com/pi/pi-operating-systems/raspbian/bluetooth/serial-over-bluetooth
There may even be an android app that could help. Suppose it depends on the scope of your project.
Funnily enough I may have to do something with this tech myself later in the year.
Physically? Knees, even though they are the victims of bad feet.
After much thought I feel ID cards have their place, we kind of have them now as places expect you to have a drivers licence or passport to prove ID or age. My problem with digital is that it isn't necessarily secure and by the time it's been done it'll be significantly over budget.
What about people without smartphones? - they do exist, and this scheme will risk marginalising some of them.
I think the scheme needs careful thought. One ID which the different organisations can scan to get data relevant to their needs only. NHS, tax, proof of age, proof of address, national insurance etc. If the card was sufficiently smart it could hold emergency data, allergies/ health issues, next of kin etc.
I'm comfortably into my second half century. In time I'll give up on passports and driving licences. I'll probably give up on smartphones as well (the screen's too small to see easily already). What then? I won't be able to prove my existence via the accepted means. I worry that the digital destitution will lead to physical destitution and isn't something I look forward to.
Digital isn't a panacea.
A physical ID card backed up with appropriately integrated government services rolling out over time would get my vote, but I'm confident it won't happen.
I have tinnitus primarily in my left ear. After seeing the audiologist I was given a noise generator, basically a hearing aid that make a constant noise but doesn't amplify sound. - I go with white noise but other options are available.
The idea is that it trains the brain to ignore the tinnitus noise. Note it doesn't cure the cause but mitigates the symptom. It works very well for me, so much so that I'm getting a second unit for my other ear. The unit also streams from my phone which is very useful in and of itself.
This is in the uk where they're provided free on the NHS. I guess if you're in the us, then you'll have to sell the house, car and kids too afford the initial consultation.
For people like that there's no compassion, regret or remorse, it's either water under the bridge or someone else's fault.
Rolling codes may protect you from a replay attack, but if the attacker is more sophisticated and has worked out the algorithm, then they can send the commands and effectively lock you out.
Is Bluetooth no good? Lots of protection baked in already.
