My experience is similar. I recently bought a USB-C to DC jack adapter from Apple for use on my Pixel 2 phone. The sound on my SoundMagic E10 was flat and mushy. Even though the earphones are "only" rated as 46 Ohm.

My friend managed to upgrade to 11.3 beta without restoring.

(Very bad joke on my part)

EDIT: apparently he did go into recovery but didn't lose his files.

He says you have to go in DFU, press shift and click on update then select the file for the 11.3 beta upgrade.

No, I don't. But I share my password-file over dropbox and my dropbox password is managed by my password manager.

So, sort-of, I guess.

KeepassX. And I'd actually rather handle password-file sharing myself as I'm not super comfortable with everyone having access to my password-file even though it's encrypted. Also the fact that my main platforms are Linux and Android removes quite a lot of options as far as password managers go.

It's also much more costly because the attacker cannot rely on the birthday paradox anymore to reduce the cost per bit of entropy.

Also, it depends on how popular the scheme becomes, you never know! :-D

Every so often, for instance when I am setting up my password manager on a new device I find myself reading the password from one device and typing it on the next. This would make that process much easier/saner. The password is effectively much easier to read in and type back.

Don't you want to generate my SSH keys, while you're at it? ^^

I mean, I understand the idea but I would much rather a short script that I can run locally.

Edit: See answer below. Apparently this is possible. Sorry!

I expected the 'why?' page to explain how (or by who) they are funded/how they make money. I've never heard of these guys before and until they explain that, I have no reason to trust them more than other non-ISP DNS provider...
