  • they ran the test on those pw managers because they were open source. that allowed the testers to implement a “dummy” provider on their own “compromised server.” so the results of failing the tests are based on the hypothetical situation of “what if bitwarden (or whoever) had an entire server taken over by hackers”. while the chances of that happening are greater than zero, it would take a lot for someone to completely hijack a server like that

    edit to add-- these tests are one of the reasons these pw managers choose to be open source: to allow 3rd party tests like this to find vulnerabilities, so they can be fixed

    nothing is 100% guaranteed safe, but if you don’t want to remember or write down dozens or hundreds of unique strong passwords, i still would recommend a pw manager





  • i’m not an expert but i use IF for autophagy and gut health. it’s the only thing i’ve tried that worked for me for weight loss. i’m down 40+ lb from a year ago.

    i think a lot of “studies” are ordered up by some organizations that hate intermittent fasting, because rather than replacing one food with another food, you’re reducing the food, period. which means you’re spending less money. which corporations hate.

    so, pooh-pooh on IF

    i just finished eating for the day, will not eat again until tomorrow, and i’ll sleep great because of it
