  • Best Buy does this all for you for $80, assuming the person is in the US. I expect this is available most places for similar prices though. You can get anything from a BT only unit for $20 online to a much nicer unit with Android Auto/iOS’s thing. While the initial cost might be higher the opportunity cost of your thing being disabled is almost certainly much higher, as this thread’s existence seems to support. $150-$200 well worth it in the long run to do a head unit upgrade.



  • As with most things security it’s about assessing your risk.

    If you’re a granny with a hand full of passwords then a notebook is probably fine.

    I think for most people, who aren’t CEOs, high value employees, or some kind of holder of the keys to a kingdom beyond their personal bank account, a solid full e2ee password manager that’s cloud synced is a nice middle ground of security vs convenience. It beats a post it under keyboard or a notebook left on the night stand.

    For those CEOs, or high value employees then something offline is in order. Or as I’ve seen others note perhaps a combo of full offline and cloud synced for less important logins.

    I recommend Bitwarden as others have here. It seems to be the one that’s come through unscathed thus far and the company behind it seems to be making the right moves to stay ahead of risks. https://bitwarden.com/help/is-bitwarden-audited/


  • Kind of a peripheral to this there are specialized toothpastes that I feel like a lot of people don’t know about. I had some gum issues that also made flossing uncomfortable. My dentist recommended Crest Gum Detoxify which, when used along with regular flossing, got my gums right real fast. Basically one 6 month cleaning period of using the toothpaste and flossing regularly and now my gums don’t bother me. Now I use two toothpastes. Gum detox in the morning and flossing with regular toothpaste in the evening. No more gum problems.
