When I broke a bank (as a teen)

Okay, this will be a story with no tags and no connection to anything else. I just wanted to have fun with this one. This short story is about how I discovered a huge, incredible… standard tool and had fun with it as a teen and how I got a bottle of wine.

Updating to Android 11 - an uneventful journey

How it all started

I have a phone. Surprising, I know. I also like my phone, so much so that I installed TWRP, LineageOS and Magisk. This means I can do whatever I want to my phone, take a full backup and do all sorts of snazzy shenanigans.

Privacy - a dive into courtesy

You may not feel like you need privacy. I know I felt the same way quite a while ago. Maybe you really know why you don’t want people in your private space, but don’t know feel comfortable enough defending your decisions (the question of do you have something to hide? is difficult to answer). This post will hopefully give you at least some ammunition for people who only have the idea of privacy in their subconscious.

Facebook leak - what is it good for?

So, we have another leak on our hands. The lucky winner of this year’s lottery is Facebook! And the unlucky losers are 533 million people. A few days ago it was published for free, and I actually made the effort this time. This post is not about what it means for users, because, as Facebook put it, It’s their fault for putting all that shit out there. I will talk about the version of the database I found and what we can do with it.

Passwords: A hot take

Well, here we are again. Yes, I WILL talk about passwords. No, you will not enjoy this, since in this blogpost, I will discuss my stance on passwords and what we should teach the younger generation to do. Furthermore, we will see why some people refuse to get longer passwords. Also, a side note on my current phone ponderings.
