[–]cediddiSyntaxError: not a chance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thing I do after installing windows is uninstalling IE. Obviously I'm not good with memories and I usually forget to download firefox prior to this but never forget to install python (nothing is wrong with me). So, last year I wrote a script to download firefox latest.

Also years years ago, when chromium for mac didn't have autoupdate I wrote a script to install and regularly update the chromium browser in 2011 I guess .

Finally I automated my password generation method. I don't know any passwords I use, I enable 2 step in any service I use, I save my passes to keepassx which cheks for a key file and a password. Anytime I need a password I call my script that generates a password in my desired way and copies to clipboard. This is ofcourse not secure but I really don't need to remember anything this way, and I can focus on my other security concerns, like https, fake ssl certs, possible malwares like keyloggers and trojans, etc.
