Things I learned lately 29 May

  • When you allow the Google Chrome browser to save your passwords, it now compares your usernames and passwords against known lists of breached login data and tells you which ones were part of the breach. You used to have to do this manually. By the way, if you ARE letting Google Chrome remember your passwords, your Google login password best be strong.
  • In Canada, the Chevy Spark can be had for as low as $9,998 MSRP. 5 speed manual, no air conditioning, manual windows. But it does have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
  • "The stray shopping carts of eastern north america: a guide to field identification" is a real book. Current (used) asking price on Amazon: $208.15 + shipping
  • Canadian e-commerce company Shopify just announced that it will permanently allow all workers to work from home now.
  • The egg came first. Species that were around long before the chicken also laid eggs. End of discussion.
  • CIA agents were known to pass messages to each other based upon how their shoe laces were tied.
