    I had to install one of these tools recently because of the notch on newer macbooks, they hide icons that overflow and you never notice it. For a while I thought my apps were error…

    In the UK you can use something like this: https://www.deathnotificationservice.co.uk/ There are a few of these, one official one for notifying the government and a few private one…

    Had the same experience with my dad passing recently, we had access to everything because we know the passwords he uses and he was ok with sharing those with us. Will definitely lo…

    Is the whole idea of syncing passkeys a bad idea? Or at least a less secure idea. Someone explained to me that passkeys are hardware backed, each passkey is stored on device and ti…

    I'm still a bit afraid of doing updates, I always tend to wait for the first minor/patch release before going for it. Things have changed in a big way since 2017 mind you, far more…
