Should You Use A Password Manager?

Now, you need to keep track of tens, hundreds, or even thousands of passwords! You can reuse the same password, but what if you want to have an even bigger password or be more secure? While, you can use a password manager! But, isn't that more insecure? You just have a big program/extension that you can open up, and it can be opened by anyone? While, if you don't have a computer password, set it now. But then, you can set up a password for your password manager! When you open it, it asks for a password.













Once you type it in, your passwords are there! There are 2 ways that password managers can work. First, a password manager can type in passwords for you. The second way is filling them in. And a password manager can generate THIS good of a password!

So, should you use a password manager? While, how easy is it for you to track passwords? While, you can choose that.

But what password manager to use? While, here is a long list of password managers and browsers with password managers you can use.

  • Google Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Safari
  • Internet Explorer (DO NOT USE)
  • 1Password
  • LastPass
  • Bitwarden
  • KeePass (Only stores passwords on your computer)
  • RoboForm
  • Dashlane
  • Other versions of KeePass do exist
  • NordPass

Now, is it OK to keep the passwords on your computer in KeePass? Most of the time, yes. Now, the weird thing is that the only complete FREE password managers are the browser ones and KeePass. Those are the password managers I recommend. LastPass isn't even FREE! Now, KeePass somehow manages to make databases with 7 passwords in 5 kilobytes. If you had a couple MILLION passwords, you might be able to fit that into less than a gigabyte! But, that is kind of an advantage with browser password managers. But, overall, I don't know what password manager I would use!

My New Computer (Acer Spin 3)

  So recently I got a new computer. So what are the differences? While, this laptop is a Windows laptop, which is new for me. This computer is an Acer Spin convertible, specifically an Acer Spin 3. One thing that this laptop has compared to my previous Chromebooks is that it has a Caps Lock key. So what is in this laptop? This has an Intel Iris Plus graphics card paired with an Intel Core i5 10th Gen processor, along with 8 gigabytes of RAM (memory) and 512 gigabytes of storage. WAY more than I need. So should you get it? Yes. Now, when should you get it? Your choice. You can get it now, or get it when it is not an outside vendor. And I forgot to say, it comes with a stylus. So how many stars do I rate it? 5 stars. And there is also a backlit keyboard, but you can turn that on or off with the F8 key. And you will need to turn it on to turn it off. But overall, the Acer Spin 3 is a good laptop. I recommend this laptop to anyone who needs a good Windows laptop. To actu...
