Wow, I can't imagine living somewhere so remote. I wish I was better at meal planning/prepping/organizing, but it's a work in progress. I also want to get into preserving, pickling, etc. I think since fresh food is readily available where I live and I have the privilege of usually being able to afford fresh produce I've lost touch with how to have a "cushion" in case of emergency (which is something I was raised with).
Interesting read. I think something that bothers me more than trying to remember passwords (I have a system) is when an app or website won't let you see what you've typed! It's so easy to make a typo, especially on a phone and nothing infuriates me more than that "wrong password" message popping up when I can't even view what letters/numbers I've typed in before hitting enter.
I still run into arbitrary password limitations (no special characters, 20 character max, etc). I go through the “reset password” process just to see what arcane rules I had to follow, which is enough to help me remember my password so I can log in.
I seriously have to reset passwords every 2-3 days for different websites AND I use a password manager. It's maddening and embarrassing and sometimes it feels like someone is playing a mean joke on me
This is one of the most misguided security features - in some cases in public places maybe. But anywhere else let me at least see what I’ve typed (or as the iPhone does show me at least the last character as I type it).
On iOS you can do this with an extension called Web Inspector. It’s quite literally what the name suggests, albeit more limited than its desktop counterparts.
