• Can I lock my Mac when an AirTag moves away from it?

  There are ways to do this with an iPhone and/or Apple Watch. Near Lock is one option. Source: over 1 year ago

• An app that locks the mac if it hasn't detected your face in 3 minutes.

  I don't think such an app exists, but maybe Near Lock comes in handy: https://nearlock.me/. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Alternative to Near Lock !

  I've been trying for over a year to find an app that unlock my Hackintosh (and MBP) with my phone or other blueprint when I get near it (and lock it when I walk away).

Character substitutions like ķeepass or ƙeepass or keypass are at least possible to spot if you know the name of the product, but not the full URL. But there are many ways to create lookalike domains that don't change the product name: https://keepass.org https://keepass.net https://keepass.info... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Google announces passwordless by default: Make the switch to passkeys

  > People love to hate on passwords but the reality is that for many circumstances (threat models) they are the best compromise. You can make them more than strong enough (take 32+ bytes out of /dev/random and encode however you like, nobody will ever brute force that in this universe) and various passwords managers solve the problem of re-use (never reuse a password). > And it comes with the benefit that you... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• If you cannot download any books, then you’re on one of the scam sites

  If you have used this combo at many sites (which is of course not recommended) then download one of the available free Password Managers like Keepass, Bitwarden, Lastpass or any others you can find with a Google Search. Source: 7 months ago
