Can we send another copy to New Zealand?

Just in case?

Yes! I’ve been to THE mall there. I had a layover in Minneapolis one time, so we stashed our bags and took the train. It was pretty amazing.

Luckily I live in a an area where there are a few decent malls still for me to get my fix.

I completely relate. Grew up in the mall, and worked there in my teens. Was just visiting home and it’s completely dead. There were literally 4 stores open.

Mad me sad.

Thanks! :)

Learn everything you can, about everything you can,
and check out places you can practice your learning like Hack the Box or one of the other platforms.

And go from there!

It is now. When I got into it, I was doing communications, mainly radio and satellite. I had no idea what I was going to do, and as it turned out, computers and learning really struck a chord with me.

I used military grade cryptography in the Navy, but I learned a lot about cybersecurity on my own. All the “puzzles”, and learning new things everyday like new technology, new vulnerabilities, etc.

Now they have specialists in the military and other government agencies that teach it. Although, given the current political climate, I wouldn’t want to be part of that with that.

As much as people learn it in school and the military now, I feel to be really good at it, you have to know at least a little of everything. I like to look at it like a technical jack of all trades.

You’d be surprised how many people there are from all sorts of backgrounds and interests, that had no idea they would be making a living out of hacking.

Long time IT/cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity is all about curiosity and learning. I got there via the military.

E: too soon.

Which VPN are you using? In most cases it works for me depending on the country I choose.

Trump ≠ All Americans

It just seems that way :(

Summary:

Security researchers Sam Curry and Shubham Shah identified critical vulnerabilities in Subaru’s web portal that allowed unauthorized access to vehicles’ internet-connected features. Through these flaws, they could remotely unlock doors, start the engine, and access detailed location histories spanning at least a year. These vulnerabilities potentially affected millions of Subaru vehicles equipped with the Starlink system in the U.S., Canada, and Japan. Upon being informed, Subaru promptly addressed and patched the issues. However, concerns remain about the extensive location data accessible to Subaru employees, highlighting broader privacy implications regarding the data modern vehicles collect.

Probably the MacBook sitting next to the ridiculous keyboard.

Even still… I’ve seen devs do it with equally blank stares.

She would just stare, unimpressed, and lay there like a lumpy sack of potatoes, mocking me.

I’m pretty sure my cat would just flop over and refuse to move.

Soon Xitter/Elon will purchase Truth Social from Trump for all the monies and they will be the same platform, under one overlord.

I have hundreds of passwords, there’s no way I could manage that without a password manager.

1Password isn’t terrible, it’s pretty intuitive.

Bitwarden is another popular option.

Using the same (or similar) passwords for multiple things is a really bad idea.

In my experience, I feel like Apple does a much better job curating and vetting their content, making things a lot more stable. Also, Apple at least tries to care about your security and privacy vs the alternative.

I’ve also given Graphene a (short) try and while the privacy features are nice. I don’t want to spend time fiddling with my phone, and trying to get things working.

Yes, the new iPhones are expensive. But if money is tight, you can still get it subsidized by your phone provider. Worst case scenario, get a slightly older/refurbished iPhone.

Good luck OP!

Edit: I also prefer 1Password, but that is another discussion altogether.

Oh, and you are asking in an Apple community. You aren’t going to get many people giving you reasons to use something else ;)
