So maybe I'm just getting a lot more paranoid as I get older or maybe it's because my kids are now old enough to use phones or maybe it's because we can't go a day without hearing about some website getting hacked. But I've been thinking a lot more about online security lately and basically how it's kind of backwards and broken for so many people. But I was really intrigued by this headline recently. It said out of Googles 85 thousand some-odd employees, not a single one had been phished. Their accounts had not been compromised since they moved to using these. Physical hardware security keys. So their accounts are safe. I want my account to be safe. I want my kids accounts to be safe. So I went down a pretty deep rabbit hole. I've turned on Google's advanced protection program for my person Google account and that's Google's strongest consumer level system that requires these hardware keys to work. So what are they? What can the...
Hey, today I'm going to give you 18 Things To Know about the new Go Pro Hero 8. I'm gonna go into a little bit of the detail and stuff, kind of the under the covers of how things actually work on these cameras and I'm gonna talk about the good, and the bad of these camera. They are definitely not perfect and there's some things that I love, and some things that drive me absolutely bonkers. Also note that I have a ton of sample footage in this video but I also have a dedicated footage video up there in the corner. That's like the extravaganza of sample footage. Comparisons of four different cameras at once, all sorts of cool stuff there. So check that out as well as the in-depth review that you see on the screen right now. With that let's get into a bit of a freebie that is not included on my 18 Things, which is the pricing on this. The Hero 8 Black is at $399, the Hero 7 Black moves down to $329, the Hero 7 Silver goes to $199, and then they've introduced...
Twitter is said to be working on a couple of new features that could make it easier to manage direct messages and retweeting. The first time someone sends you a direct message on Twitter, it arrives in the form of a message request. You have the option to either accept or delete the message(s), or report or block the sender. And unless an action is taken, the sender does not know if the message has been read. Such requests are segregated in a separate list than your accepted DMs. The microblogging site could soon introduce a new option to let users mute these incoming DM requests. This will take the one-sided chats on to the end of your message request list, making it easier for you to defer taking any further action. As intended, you will not be notified of future messages in the same conversation and you can simply ignore the requests without explicitly blocking the senders. One less reason to lock new DM requests entirely. The feature is not live on Twitter yet,...
