xkcd #3109: Dehumidifier

Title text:

It's important for devices to have internet connectivity so the manufacturer can patch remote exploits.

Transcript:

[A store salesman, Hairy, is showing Cueball a dehumidifier, with a "SALE" label on it. Several other unidentified devices, possibly other dehumidifier models, are shown in the store as well.]

Salesman: This dehumidifier model features built-in WiFi for remote updates.
Cueball: Great! That will be really useful if they discover a new kind of water.

My SO is already using keepass locally. Used to be only a paper notebook. Data breach paranoia.

I plan to setup vaultwarden or keepassXC

I use keepass, it's a little more work than many closed source ones, but it's only as online as you want it to be, and runs on anything
