Password hygiene is all the rage
LastPass Blog announcement of the security incident (https://blog.lastpass.com/2022/12/notice-of-recent-security-incident/)
We talked a lot about password managers in episode 11 (https://www.linuxuserspace.show/311).
Mozilla's pitch (https://blog.mozilla.org/en/privacy-security/privacy-security-tips/your-childs-name-makes-a-horrible-password/).
Brian Krebs has this to say (https://krebsonsecurity.com/password-dos-and-donts/).
You can check your passwords against Have I Been Pwned (https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords).
If you use Bitwarden/Vaultwarden, you can use the reports (https://bitwarden.com/help/reports/) to check exposed, reused, and weak passwords.

Version 110, Firefox (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/110.0/releasenotes/) got the addition to import bookmarks, passwords and history from Opera, Opera GX, and Vivaldi.

Brave is great and cheer from the Great White North, eh!
Thanks Frank!
Eric M. on Youtube says...
Pixar and other animation studios use RHEL for their workstations.
In Podman, the pod comes from kubernetes. A pod is a group of containers that are in the same namespace.
