  • I ask AI to make me a random password for “x” service. Whenever I need to remember it, I just ask again

    I’ve already seen someone do that, a certain family member. At first I found it funny when they asked an LLM about their WiFi password, which was some gibberish. But it worked. There’s no way something like that would be default across entire product line.
    Indeed, when I asked, I got “I gave it screenshots of everything because I didn’t know what to type where”.








  • That’s my reason for wanting to switch to a password manager. Everything gets some long random string that would be insane to type anyway. Or using passkeys, if supported, though I’ll have to research how that works.

    My biggest problem is backups. I like the method of Aegis authenticator. It just stores some number of past (encrypted) databases. Each change is a new file. This way rsync takes care of both backups and version control. If I accidentally rsync a corrupted file, it doesn’t matter much. And I can verify them with Rhash, just like all files that don’t change (like photos).










    1. Open dialer
    2. Enter *#*#4636#*#* (*#*#INFO#*#*)
    3. Select “LTE only”, “NR only” or “NR/LTE” as applicable or preferred.
    4. In settings, navigate to mobile network
    5. Disable VoWiFi, VoLTE and VoNR

    No more phone calls!
    If there is no 2G/3G in your area, you can just skip to step 4.
    Outgoing calls won’t work either.
    USSD/MMI including settings like call barring and forwarding may also not work (set/reset, existing settings should be fine).
