So I've been trying to create more secured passwords now that I have employment where I have responsibility. They require us to change our passwords every 3 months. I used to use the same passwords for multiple sites. Then I used a password manager and got rid of those memory passwords. With this job I don't want to mix my personal password manager with my work computer and I also don't want to remember a complicated 15 character long password to log in every day.

That brings me to my question. I've been using Yubikeys for years. I store a challenge response, use it for 2FA on all sites that allow, and I use it for TOTP on most sites (there's a limit to how many entries in the Yubikey 5). You can also store a password in one of it's two slots. My thinking is this: Is it secure to store a base password that is long and complicated, say 40 characters long with all the characters, and use a different "prefix" for each application? Example: On my banking site I type in "bank" then press the Yubikey to type the rest. Same thing with social media and other accounts. Each one has a prefix and I don't know the actual password. Of course I store all passwords, including the Yubikey, in a password manager that's backed up in the cloud (I use KeePassXC).

Your thoughts? Is this secure or stupid?

After 21 years Rooster Teeth is being shut down by Warner Bros. Discovery, it's parent company. I wasn't too into their work except for Red vs. Blue in my college days but its a shame.

Their track record with these switch pokemon games is forcing me to wait and see how many bugs it will launch with.

Twitter Link I personally like Avalonia and I hope this decision is for the best. But at the same time I don't know the benefits or disadvantages of being part of the .Net Foundation.

So people are exercising the 1st Amendment right in a way that she doesn't like and now she wants the FBI to investigate them. All these politicians are the same. Democrats and Republicans.

For those of you wondering if you can play this on your Steam Deck.

This is what an open-world pokemon game should have been. Not the buggy disappointing mess GameFreak gave us for 2 generations.

For those of you who don't want to use a ChatGPT but want a LLM.

I don't know Romanian law but it sounds like they seized his property without proving it was used in a crime. Let's see how the retrial pans out.

I think I'll try this out. I've played the shit out of Skyrim but that's the only one. I even own Morrowind and Oblivion on Steam but haven't played them. :(

I might pick this up and try it out. I've only played Skyrim even though I own Morrowind and Oblivion.

They're blaming customers for not having good cybersecurity practices instead of themselves for not having good cybersecurity practices.
