Comment on Turn Your Terminal Into a Shareable Web Page With ttyd by Jean-Francois Messier

I tried to use ttyp afte rinstalling it from apt-get. I got version 1.7.4-1 under Mint to be more precise. When I first tried to run it, I got an error message in the binding to port 7681 was not possible. Fine, I picker another port, 9595. I got it to work. On the terminal where I started it, it remains under the run of ttyd. At this point, I cannot enter another command. However, when I go on a web browser, port 9595, bingo ! got it. Is this normal and can we start ttyd in the background (&) without any issue ?...

Comment on Update Your Printer Firmware Now to Keep Hackers Out by Arthur

My HP printer Deskjet 4100e is not on the current list, so I don't know if that makes any difference. Also, it is connected only to my PC by USB. It has never and will not ever be connected directly to my router. It was installed via USB when I first got it. However, I was able to download and install it's free ware through my PC browser directly from HP. Am I protected?...

"saving them anywhere else has the same risk as saving them in password managers" That is why I do not use a PM. I keep the list of my passwords on paper (Oh the horror!) Unless one is in a corporate environment or at a location where there are multiple computers, the danger of somebody getting at least a look at a hardcopy password list is greatly overblown. To get at my password list, a bad actor would have to: 1) physically break into my house 2) find my computer 3) know that I keep a hardcopy list 4) search through all my books, notebooks and stacks of paper to find the list Only to find very little information of any use. After wasting so much time, the hacker would be in custody for "breaking & entry" or was introduced to Smith & Wesson brothers Hackers and other miscreants like to do their dirty work in the quiet and solitude of their basement and at their leisure. They do not do well under time constraints...

This article proves how useless, if not dangerous, Password Managers can be. On the one hand they are supposed to make logons easier and quicker but on the other hand, if the PM is compromised, we have to go through all kinds of gymnastics and logon manually after all...

In reply to <a href="https://www.maketecheasier.com/protect-password-managers-dom-clickjacking-attack/#comment-131931">Steve_K</a>. True, if someone gains access to your password manager, you are done. However, that's one downside of password managers and which is why they usually have the latest security measures to prevent that. Aside from this downside, password managers are necessary to follow the basic security advice of "Use strong and unique passwords for each account". It's almost impossible to have strong and long unique passwords for each account and memorize them (saving them anywhere else has the same risk as saving them in password managers). If someone is using the same password for all accounts, they are already putting all their eggs in the same basket...
