[0:12] 2023, and this is show number 946. Guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, I just had the best Chit Chat Across the Pond interview of all time.
Even Bart, who was on all of the great ones, if you take the area under the curve, Bart's interviews have all been better, but this one interview is possibly the pinnacle of my career as a podcaster.
[0:33] Here's the setup. Have you always figured that astrophysics was a subject beyond your grasp?
In this week's Chit Chat Across the Pond, Nobel Prize winner Dr. Andrea Ghez from UCLA joined me to explain how she and her team proved that there is a supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy.
Now that sounds super nerdy and I love that it's chit-chat across the bottle light by the way, but she does it in such a human friendly way. I mean we're laughing all through this. It was it was just so much fun. Now it's important to note that in 2020 she became only the fourth woman in history to win the Nobel Prize in physics. Seriously, she is a rock star.
Anyway, Steve and I were lucky enough to become friends with Andrea on our circumnavigation around Iceland, and then we got to be with her again on our trip to Antarctica.
[1:20] And to be perfectly honest, we actually signed up for Antarctica because we knew Andrea was going to be lecturing. That's why we chose that trip. So since this was such a momentous interview, We have audio and video of the interview with Dr. Ghez, and I got to give Steve big chops for putting the video together.
So if you follow the link in the show notes, you can go watch her and I talking, but it's the same interview if you just listen to us. So either way you want to do it is going to be great.
There's also a link in the show notes in the episode to go to the UCLA Galactic Center group, where you can look at photos, images, and videos, and even download them of some of the discoveries and the work that they've done.
So, this is the coolest thing I've ever done. Please, please, please go over and listen to Dr. Andrea Ghez on Chitchat Across the Pond, number 770.
[2:11] Now, this is going to be a hard act to follow, but we had another Chitchat Across the Pond this week, episode 777, if I'll get it yet, 771, was Bart Bouchat's on programming by stealth, and we're calling it 152A.
And let me give you the setup on this and why this is A in this case.
Now, I don't always make the time to pre-read the show notes for programming by stealth, but I never regret it when I do make the time. I always tell myself I'm going to make the time, but I don't always do it.
When I do it, I'm always happy, and that was especially true this week.
In this installment, Bart takes us through his solution to the challenge from PBS 151, which was simply to print a pretty multiplication table using the printf command.
We had already written the code earlier in the series on how to do the multiplication, but this was to make it look pretty.
So being Bart, he didn't just make the columns line up nicely, like my solution.
He took it up a notch, and he added ASCII characters that build a nice border and corners around his table.
[3:08] The reason I said it was good I pre-read the show notes is that while nearly everything he explains in this lesson was a reuse of things he's taught us before, the commands, in Bash are so dense, like a single character means a whole lot of stuff, so you cram a bunch of single characters together to make it incomprehensible is the way I look at it.
Anyway, it made it really hard to read and hard to comprehend, and we'd also taken four weeks between lessons, so it made it even harder for me to remember what he had taught us before.
Now, because I told Bart ahead of time that I was going to be stopping him to ask a lot of questions, we decided to skip the one main new topic that he had planned to explain, which is XARGs.
This means that the next installment will start with XARGs as programming by Stealth 152B, using the same show notes that you'll be following for 152A.
Now, I'm really glad we did it this way because instead of you having to listen to a confused and when I'm confused, I get frustrated, the lessons flows much better with me having time to ask the right questions.
Of course, you can find Bart's fabulous tutorial show notes at pbs.bartofficer.net and you can follow this in your podcatcher at Programming by Stealth.
[4:19] One of the problems with jumping straight from an internal combustion engine, also known as ICE vehicle to a Tesla is that Steve and I have no perspective at all on what normal EVs are like to drive or to charge. On our recent trip to Houston to visit our son Kyle, we decided to rent an EV. Even though a Tesla Model 3 was available, we chose a Chevy Bolt so that we could have that new experience. Now the first thing we had to do was change our mindset from making any comparisons of the Bolt to our Teslas, because the Bolt starts to $27.5K, while the Model 3 can run you closer to $70,000.
While they're currently for sale, sadly, GM announced recently that they will be discontinuing the Bolt because they're investing in a new EV platform and have decided to build it out at the factory where the bolt is currently manufactured.
[5:08] Now while the Bolt isn't the most attractive car around, it reminds me of when Rob Dunwood of the SMR podcast said he'd buy an EV when they stopped looking like mushrooms, the car's still pretty comfortable inside. With only two of us, we had plenty of room for our luggage and we do not pack light. Now Steve drove it first and he was super annoyed at the mushy brakes. Many electric vehicles offer something called one-pedal driving. With one-pedal driving, you use the accelerator pedal to accelerate, but when you let off the pedal, the car uses regenerative braking to slow the car down.
Not only is this a much more relaxing way to drive, regenerative braking actually puts energy back into the battery, giving you more range for the vehicle.
It's actually probably one of my favorite things about driving a Tesla, even above the awesome acceleration. I don't think Steve would put them in that order, but I really do.
I love one pedal driving. Now I started wondering whether the Bolt might have regenerative braking so Steve wouldn't have to deal with the mushy brakes.
I took the drastic measure of looking at the user manual in the glove compartment and that identified a button on the center console that showed a foot pushing a pedal.
[6:18] Get it? One pedal driving. As soon as we pushed that button to enable one pedal driving, Steve was much happier driving the Chevy Bolt.
He said it was a substantial improvement in his driving pleasure.
On the Teslas is just plain nutty. My car is 0-60 in 3.1 seconds. I mean, that's crazy pants fast.
So anyway, as much as we tried not to set our expectations for the inexpensive Bolt, it was difficult not to make a comparison. While the Bolt felt more like an ICE car in terms of its power of acceleration, the reaction of the car to pressing the accelerator was instantaneous, which is one of the joys of driving an EV. I mentioned that the one-pedal driving button was on the center console. That's also where the Bolt has buttons for drive, reverse, and park.
Tesla has used what's called the stalk, which is this post coming out on the right side of the steering wheel. It takes some getting used to, but now using the stalk is ingrained in our muscle memory. The result of this muscle memory is that when driving other rental cars, we constantly flip on the windshield wipers when we want to change gears. Now, because the Bolt interface was so weird having these buttons, I found it easier to keep remembering not to use muscle memory, but to reach down and hit those buttons when I wanted to go into reverse or back into drive.
[7:35] Now, when we were done driving with a drive in the Bolt, we actually had to create a little checklist of things to remember to do. This is because when you arrive at your destination in a Tesla, you can simply open the door and walk away. I mean, I pull up to Starbucks, I open the door and I walk away. That's it. Opening the door automatically puts the car in park, and walking away with your phone automatically locks the car. Finally, there's simply no concept of turning on or off a Tesla, it just is.
Now, in the Bolt, we had to remember to push the park button first, then we had to remember to turn off the car, then we had to remember to lock the Bolt.
Luckily, the Bolt would yell at us if we forgot any of those things.
Speaking of yelling at us, when we first got into the Bolt at the rental car agency at the airport, it hollered at us that the charger port was open.
Steve got out of the car and he pushed on it to make sure it was closed, but the car yelled at us again.
He pushed harder, and that time the port stayed closed.
Now it's foreign to us to have to manually close the charger port because the Tesla port cover automatically opens and closes for charging sessions. I've said many times that I don't quite get why people are so enamored with CarPlay. The Chevy Bolt has a beautiful 10.2-inch diagonal screen for CarPlay. The experience of CarPlay for us was much better from that perspective versus the tiny screens on other cars that we've rented. It also has wireless CarPlay.
[9:04] However, the interface is still confusing to us and difficult to use.
It seemed to have a lot of trouble finding locations on maps, which is pretty much table stakes.
We finally resorted to using the search in Apple Maps on Steve's phone first, and then CarPlay would display our route.
I don't know why the car couldn't find things. It didn't make any sense.
I also had trouble figuring out how to see the split screen of maps and a podcast at the same time. I finally phoned a friend and I asked Steven Goetz how to get to it.
It turns out in the bottom left corner of the screen, there's an icon and you have to poke it repeatedly to cycle through various layouts.
I never would have thought to poke it more than once, but with Steven's help, I found out that's how you do it.
Bart complains bitterly about Tesla's maps in Ireland.
I do not doubt that his experiences are legitimate, but we had the opposite problem using CarPlay with Apple Maps.
At one point, it told us to turn into a neighborhood that was near Kyle's house, but it was actually a mile too early.
We obeyed, though, because we didn't really know how to get there.
We've only been there once before. And as soon as we made the turn, it got super cranky and it routed us back out of the neighborhood through I think like seven turns, got us back onto the main drag we've been on before, and then into the correct neighborhood.
I think all mapping programs have problems from time to time.
I've mentioned that Tesla's been known to move things around on the screen with updates.
Most notably, they can't seem to decide the correct location for the garage door opener button so they keep moving it.
[10:33] But one thing they did get right, they moved the speed limit from the far right of the screen to top center, much closer to the driver's line of vision.
I think it's actually like, I'd call it like a third of the way over from the left hand side. It's much, much improved.
But in CarPlay, the speed limit sign is way over on the far right corner.
I suppose if you did the split screen and had the podcast up to the right, that would move it over, but I think it should be on the left.
Why would you put the speed limit way over there? It doesn't make any sense to me.
They really need to change that.
[11:06] Now one of my favorite things about the Bolt is the display in front of the steering column.
I really wish we had that on the on the Teslas.
The display on the Bolt is super clear and sharp. It's just really crisp.
It displays the current range available for driving, and it also shows you the possible variation of that range.
So it kind of gives you like a high low.
In the screenshot I showed, we had 215 miles left of range, but that could be as high as 254 or as low as 176 depending on what you were doing.
And you know, as Steve and I talked about last week, EV range can be highly dependent on a lot of factors, so it's really good to have the visibility to the variability of that range.
Speaking of range, the Bolt showed the average range to be 255 miles at full charge. That's a lot for a $28,000 car. That's really good. Now the Bolt also shows you your instantaneous kilowatts of power usage, and it goes from green to orange to red depending on how aggressive your driving. With one pedal driving on, you also see a little green spinner over a picture of a foot on a pedal to show you when regenerative braking is putting energy back into the battery.
It's very satisfying to get this positive feedback in a very non-distracting way.
[12:22] Now that I've talked about all the happy happy joy joy that is the Chevy Bolt itself, let's talk about what it's like charging with today's American charging networks.
We have two competing standards, and I'm putting those in quotes, for fast charging.
We have CCS, which is the Combined Charging Standard, and that's used by most vehicles other than Tesla's.
Tesla's recently rebranded their proprietary network of chargers.
They now call it the North American Charging Standard, or NACS.
CCS chargers are huge, they're heavy, and their cables are really thick and unwieldy.
We'd heard a lot of stories about problems of charging with CCS in the U.S., and that's one of the things we hope to understand more intimately by driving the Bolt ourself.
Before we get into our experience of charging with CCS, let me explain first what it's like to charge a Tesla so you can see how different our experience is.
[13:17] You drive up to a Tesla supercharger station, you back into a stall, you pull the charger cable out, and you press a button on the handle.
This opens the charger port on the car.
You plug it in.
You get in the car and then you watch Netflix. Now when you buy a Tesla, you buy it online, so you create an account and you add a credit card.
The supercharger will bill you on that card that you have in their website for any energy you use charging your car at a supercharger.
The only time we've needed to open the Tesla app was at one station, the Kettleman Station, where you had to find a double secret code that would allow you access to the rest area where they'd make you a latte and you could sit in cushy chairs, watch TV, and enjoy free Wi-Fi.
We've only found one Supercharger like that so far, but it was glorious.
The Tesla Supercharger stations we visited have a lot of stalls.
I've seen some with as few as 20, and some we visited have had more like 40 or 50.
So we're used to a lot of stalls.
Our experience with charging a normal EV using CCS wasn't quite that simple or easy.
In Apple Maps on the Bolt, we searched for chargers and found that there were four Electrify America stalls at a mall a few miles from Kyle's house.
We drove our car over and all four stalls were occupied.
I did another search and Apple Maps said that there were 11 EVGo charger stalls on the opposite side of the same mall.
[14:43] But Apple Maps said all of them were out of service. Well, we thought, hey, it's a two-minute drive, so let's just go take a look anyway.
We're not quite sure where they got the idea there were 11 stalls because we only found three.
They also weren't all out of service, and so that was interesting too.
Steve had already installed the EVgo app on his phone a while ago, and he had added his credit card to the app, so we figured this would be easy peasy.
The stall we were parked in had a small white box that said EV go on it, and it said tap card here or download the app.
Well, we'd already downloaded the app.
So we opened the app and it had a map. So we searched for our location.
It showed an icon indicating our location and below that it had what it looked like three usernames.
It said Gerald, Colby, and somebody with a handle that was C12189.
Now a lot of these apps for charging have crowdsource information about which plugs are working, how clean the facility is and that sort of thing.
The only button on the screen that we could press said Get Directions. If we pressed that, it would just show us a map with us sitting at one of the EVgo charging stations.
We had no idea how to make the charging go. There was no way that we could see to communicate between our phone and the EVgo system that we were sitting in front of.
[16:01] After 10 minutes or so of quitting and restarting the app and poking the Get Directions button, while standing in 100 degree Fahrenheit weather in Houston, I'm not joking, With the heat index, it was 110.
Anyway, I'm standing out there boiling to death. I finally gave in and I called the customer support number on the EVgo box.
After 5 minutes and 44 more seconds of standing in 100 degree Fahrenheit sun, the woman from EVgo explained to me that Colby and Gerald and C12189 were not users.
They were the names of the individual charging stations.
[16:35] We looked over at the three stations. had little black labels with the names Gerald and Colby under them and the plug we were in front of had a sticker on the front that was basically like what you'd make with your label maker that said C12189. Isn't that the silliest thing you've ever heard of? Anyway, the nice support woman told me to look, for example, under Gerald's name on the app and I should see three connector types. There was Tesla CCS and the phased-out CHAdeMO standard. Evidently, we were supposed to tap on the one we needed under the name of the charger we were sitting in front of.
Well, our little box with a homemade label for C12189 only had the slow charging connector, which is yet another standard, if you will, that's called J1772. That's a slow charging connector. But we wanted to try doing something faster, but I guess they only use their label maker on the slow charging station.
[17:30] Anyway, there was a car parked in front of Gerald, so we moved over to Colby.
And it was out of service.
The good news was that it was nearly impossible to read the screen in the sun that was telling us it was out of service.
Now, I don't know which charger the other car was using on Gerald, but it turned out the CCS charger cable was free, it wasn't being occupied on Gerald.
So we pulled our car right tight up against their car, and then dragged the charging cable from Gerald over to our car, not across their hood or anything, it went around.
Anyway, we were able to get close enough to plug the CCS charger from Gerald into our car.
Now, we only stayed on the charger for 10 minutes or so, since we didn't actually need to charge. This was all for science.
[18:12] Now, I wish I could say that our charging difficulties were unusual, but I've read a lot about how this is a fairly typical charging experience for non-Tesla charging.
But there's good news on this subject for everybody.
The recent Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act provides for increasing the U.S. electric vehicle charging infrastructure, but in order to get a piece of that money, Tesla had to agree to open up their supercharger network to other manufacturers.
The surprising news is that in the last, just the last couple of weeks, Ford, General Motors, and Rivian have all announced that they are switching from CCS over to NACS chargers, the good ones from Tesla. Not only that, a half dozen or so charging companies, as of the time of this writing, including EVgo, have announced that they'll start supporting the NACS standard.
I don't know if drivers of these cars will have a better experience with the same charging companies, but here's hoping if they can at least be on a better connector.
[19:08] After our disappointing experience at EVgo, we went to a brewery with Kyle, and we noticed a sign in the parking lot that said there was EV charging available.
We located the charging station, and although it was only a level 2 slower charger, we were willing to give it a try. The company providing the service is called Gravity, spelled with an I, and it was much easier to figure out how to use it. Download yet another app, scan the QR code, plug the charger in, and tell the app to start charging.
The QR code didn't actually work, but we were able to beat the app into submission without much effort.
We also didn't have to talk to Gerald or Colby.
[19:43] After visiting with Kyle and his family for a few days, we drove over to bother David Roth and his wife for a day. David has an Audi e-tron, which is a gorgeous and luxurious electric vehicle.
As soon as we drove up, he told Steve, park in the driveway, and he connected his level 2 J1772 charger to the bolt, and after a few hours, it was full of electrons.
The bottom line is that the Chevy Bolt is a really good car for the $28,000 starting price.
With a 250-mile range and wireless CarPlay with a giant beautiful display, that's astonishing considering the price of this vehicle and it's got one-pedal driving.
It's really a shame Chevy's going to stop making them, but they're still available for now. Charging outside of the Tesla Supercharger network was challenging.
I know Texas isn't exactly progressive when it comes to going against the oil companies with electric vehicles, but it turns out huge installations of Tesla superchargers have been going into Buc-ee's in the state.
Now, if you've never heard of Buc-ee's, it's the largest refueling stations in the country.
They have massive numbers of gas pumps, but they've started adding superchargers from Tesla like crazy.
With the shift in the industry from CCS to NACS charging, we may finally see the advances in charging in the United States that we hoped for.
[21:03] Hello fellow cast away, this is Tom from New Hampshire at the CNTV previously on.
Allison mentioned about Mastodon and how she enjoys people there and how she likes the interactions.
I enjoy it myself. I think I enjoy it much more than I ever did Facebook or Twitter.
And I've gone through about half a dozen different apps on my iPhone and I found the one I'm going to keep. The name, Mona.
Took a little while to come out, but they got it right and they're adding more stuff all the time, You can download it for your iPhone your Mac or your iPad You can for free that I call it stalk people like what your mother might do on Facebook to you or the grandchildren, And never say a word My mother's been on Facebook for years and she never posted anything, She just stalks the kids in pictures and stuff, If you have one device like I do an iPhone you can pay for pro which is I believe $9.99 it's one time. It's not once a month. It's a one-time purchase You have one phone and you have one message on account. You can do that, That gets you being able to read make posts Boost make lists you can take certain people that you want to follow and pin them to your sidebar.
[22:21] That comes in handy. I work all day long.
If I come home and I know Alison has posted a great article that we're coming back and read, I can go to the bottom of my screen and I can find the tab for pod fee to happen to that and go and go back a few bits instead of having to go back eight hours in my timeline to find things she did.
You could also set up a serious shortcut for people. You want to say, for instance, Alison Sheridan and that would open up her page and I could send her a message for her directly.
You can send audio and video messages. You can attach audio and video.
[22:56] In fact, in the share sheet, you will get a direct message, a direct link to your page, and open up your compose with your name filled in, and all you have to do is tell you what you wanna do and hit post.
If it's an article, you can do it that way. If it's an audio, you can just share it.
It's great, it's perfect.
I like it a lot. Now for the Pro Max, you can get for, and I don't remember how much it was, I wanna say it was $14, it might have been 15.
You can have more than one instance. So let's say you have one for yourself and one for an organization you're with or work.
You can have it on multiple devices, so more than one phone.
So you can have it on your phone, your Mac, and your iPad, if you wanna check them in multiple places.
And they announced today, this being the 8th of June, that they will be coming out with customized sounds.
You can change the sounds for different things soon.
There'll be an update rolling out. Absolutely, I like that.
[23:59] It's fantastic. You can customize your tab at the bottom. So it starts out with 14 tabs.
I've added a bunch and you can rearrange these tabs any way you want.
So I have people from Twitter I follow, followed by blindness ones.
Before the Twitter ones, I have Allison and I have Bart.
So Bart likes to post really cool pictures. That way I can save them to my TV. In the actions, you can select and copy text.
Very easy. So if someone does a picture and then they do alt text for the picture, you can press on the picture and you can easily get the text from the picture, copy it, save the picture, and then paste the text into the caption field of the picture.
If you don't want all the actions, you can hide all the action or anything that you don't wanna see, you can hide.
You can take things off the bar. So if you don't ever wanna see messages, you can take messages off your bar. If you don't want to see what's trending, you're going to take that off.
If you don't want to see communities.
So I'm in Twitter social, so I can tap into that. And now recently they added, you can now also see the main Macedon got social.
That's huge.
Don't know if I'd ever be going in there, but it's nice to know it's there.
If I want to see it flicking up and down, you get to make your major actions.
You can get notifications for anybody. This thing is amazing.
[25:22] I would highly encourage anybody who wants to check out the really cool app Mona from Mastodon, check it out. You won't be disappointed. It's not a waste of money. Go ahead and get it. So remember folks, help support this great podcast. Send her some money on Patreon or PayPal. And remember, stay subscribed. Well, thanks so much for that, Tom. That was a great review. And thanks for reminding everybody to stay subscribed. I love that. Now I've got a few more thoughts about Mona.
I bought both Ivory and Mona because I wanted to support both teams.
Over time, I've been using Mona more, but I can't exactly explain why. I think it's because the boost and reply buttons confuse me on Ivory, but I'm not really sure. So Mona seems to think more the way I think. Now, Tom mentioned the pricing and I want to make sure this is clear. It's $10, for a single device. If you buy the Pro Max version, it's $16 one time. In addition to to giving you the app on all three platforms, the Pro Max version also supports family sharing.
So if you have fellow Mastodonians in your family, you can spread the joy around for only $16 total.
Now, after hearing Tom's review, I realized I'm not exercising Mono to its full potential.
I didn't know you could pin people to the tab bar. I didn't know you can edit the tab bar either. Turns out you can remove and rearrange all of the little icons.
[26:48] One of the reasons I don't know everything about Mona is because it's so customizable.
For example, Tom referred to the tabs across the bottom, but mine are down the left sidebar.
I didn't know they could be on the bottom.
By default, Mona slides a new column to the right when you select a conversation or a, specific person's profile.
[27:06] I know a lot of people love that multi-column view, but I'm not actually super fond of it, so I'd kind of stopped using Mona because of it.
The main thing I didn't like about it was that when you move out of that conversation, it leaves a blank white column to the right that you have to manually drag shut.
I mentioned my dislike of that on Mastodon, and I was quickly informed that you can turn off the multi-column view in Settings.
I changed the behavior to remove the columns, and now I love Mona.
Tom didn't explicitly mention it, but he's a voiceover user.
Mona is beloved by the blind community because it was designed from the ground up with accessibility in mind. It's actually from the accessibility community that I even heard about MONA in the beginning, but as a sightling, I can also give it two thumbs up. A couple of times I've had questions about the MONA interface and the MONA Mastodon handle responded to my questions.
[27:59] This week's hero is the glorious Janet Chesney. She sent in a very generous donation by going to podfee.com slash paypal and picking an amount that showed her appreciation for the work we do here.
She also wrote in the comments, question what is this for? Answer my favorite podcast. How sweet is that? Well do you remember at the end of a couple of weeks ago's show I said that I knew someone out there had been waiting for an answer to a question for a really long time? Well it Well, it turns out it was Janet.
And when I finally answered her, my answer was, I don't know, and she donated anyway.
Well, maybe the rest of you could help me answer her question.
She said she's been using iCloud Keychain and 1Password at the same time, and she wondered if there was any reason not to do that.
She said the 1Password folks had told her it was a bad idea, but they didn't really explain why.
The only answer I could come up with was that it could get dicey if you change a password on a site or service and updated one password but didn't update it in Keychain.
But then again, I don't know, maybe Keychain figures it out.
I don't know. I don't know what Keychain would do with that.
In any case, I wasn't much help to Janet, so if you have any thoughts on that, I'd sure like to get her a better answer.
If you'd like to be cool like Janet, send in your questions, and then when I give you a half-baked answer with no information, head on over to podfee.com slash PayPal and send in a donation.
Well, it's that time of the week again. It is time for Security Bits with Bart Bouchats.
[29:22] Music.
[29:34] And you would think that this is, what is it, the silly season?
Everything's gone to sleep.
There's no pain, no agony this week.
Yeah, it's all gone very, very quiet. It's not free of pain and agony, but it, you know, it's quiet.
Pain and agony light? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. And actually, we get to start off with just a little bit of sort of detail, some follow up from last time, because we were talking last time, we recorded shortly after WWDC.
[30:02] Last time. And so we were full of all the highs of all Apple's cool new stuff. And one of the features we talked about was password sharing in the keychain, which is a big deal, especially since Windows users get to play along now thanks to the iCloud Keychain support in Edge.
Oh, okay. So basically, anyone apart from Android get to play along now, which is a lot more people covered now.
So we wondered how it would work.
And now, of course, Apple have their betas out there. So people like Apple Insider and Mac Observer have been playing.
So we don't have to worry or wonder anymore.
There are links in the show notes to how it works on iOS with screenshots and how it works on macOS with screenshots.
[30:43] But the bottom line is that to play along, everyone needs to have an iCloud account with their iCloud keychain enabled.
Shock horror. Let me slow you down. You did say it, but I want to make sure people know which one we're talking about.
We're talking about the ability to share passwords. So let's say Bart and I both need to share a password to podfee.com or I've got it on podfee.com and I want to share it with him.
I could do it through iCloud keychain.
Yes, or you will be able to. We'll be able to. So we both have to have an iCloud account and we both have to have iCloud keychain enabled. Makes sense.
And we have to have updated to the latest OS's so that we actually have the buttons to push, which obviously none of us have done yet because we don't run betas on our production devices because we're clever people.
But in the future we will. And then the way it will work is that the person who wants to share who wants to initiate the process will make a group inside the password inside the keychain app in iOS or the Mac or in Safari in the Mac, I think.
And you add, you invite people to the group via, basically you get a link that you can message them or email them.
And then you move the passwords into the group.
So to me, that sounds awfully like one password vault. So you effectively end up with a shared vault.
[31:56] Right. And I'm glad they did that because I had this vision that it would be all one-offs.
So let's say you've got a couple who are sharing banks, bank accounts, and you've got three bank accounts knowing, did I remember to do this one?
I remember doing that one, having it all in a group. I think that's a better way to go.
And if you've got a team of people, you could say, this team requires this kind of access.
Yeah. And I think last time, I think I may have said it was password by password because I was confused with the sharing of air tags, which is tag by tag, but you don't have 200 tags.
I had forgotten completely about the sharing of tags until I heard somebody mention it, I think on ATP, the Accidental Tech podcast, that we're going to be able to do that.
And that's going to be delightful.
It is. That is going to be such a nice feature. For a start for us, the one in the Apple TV remote is not mine anymore.
Then the TV will be both of ours.
Well, actually, your Apple TV remote will already know where it is.
You don't need to have an air tag on it now.
Well, yes, but that was so long in coming. I bought a really cool neoprene sleeve that A, makes it grippy so you don't drop the remote and B, hides an air tag, which is really, really.
Right, but you get a free AirTag this way. When you upgrade to iOS 17 in macOS Sonoma, you get a free AirTag, because you get to retrieve that. DyingGraveMindWithTV.
[33:16] Oh, for God's sake, you couldn't possibly put it on a bicycle if it says TV on it, Bart.
Fair point. You're right. You should waste $25 and buy another one because of that.
I wouldn't put it past me. Anyway, yes. So anyway, yeah, so there we have it.
We have some more detail on that. Did they say anything about revoking access?
Would the owner of the group be able to revoke access?
I guess... Would you have to destroy the group? Honestly, I didn't really look for that, so I don't know.
Links are in show notes. I don't know, is the honest answer.
OK.
[33:51] Moving on to action alerts, this is the bit to pay attention to, everyone.
So Apple have basically updated everything because we learned in the I think we just talked about in the previous time we recorded that Kaspersky had discovered exploits in the wild against iOS through the messages app, which were being used by very high end grayware companies, your your NSO group type of people.
And obviously, once the word gets out, you imagine others will start finding it.
It becomes an issue quickly. So it's probably not a surprise that what Apple patched in their update to everything is, in fact, those books because risky found.
[34:32] So we have our taxes and good for everybody. Yes. Update a go go is my quest.
Ken would say. Indeed, or patchy, patchy, patch, patch, as we would say. Which, yes, all of it. And while you're at it, if you're in Microsoft land, it has been Patch Tuesday for the first time in quite some time. No zero days. But that.
[34:52] Doesn't mean don't patch because there are still four critical bugs, which before we had so many zero days, critical was our biggest level of warning. So there's still four of those. So stab wounds, not axes to the head.
Yeah, exactly. The bad guys haven't got there first. But of course, once Microsoft released the patches, you reverse engineer the patch, right?
That's what happens as soon as Microsoft release patches or anyone.
The malefactors, I believe is what we say instead of bad guys these days, they compare the code without the patch to the code with the patch to figure out which DLL has changed and where in the DLL.
And then they basically can very often figure out what it is that was fixed and how to abuse it. So that is why if it's patched before it's a zero day, you're pretty safe, even though there's hypothetically vulnerability.
But ironically, the moment a patch is released, not patching becomes infinitely more dangerous because the evil people will reverse engineer the patch and it will give them a head start on attacking the vulnerability.
So once the patch is out, the race is on.
Patchy patchy patch patch.
[36:02] I know you said that before, but I think that's a really good thing to keep saying forever.
Yes. And they're getting better at it too, right? That's the other thing is the techniques for reverse engineering are not getting dumber, right? This kind of thing you sort of throw AI at as well. I was going to say, yeah. Well, I shouldn't say forever, Bart, just until people stop making mistakes when they write code. That's all the longer you have to do it. Right. And if you think AI gets us out of it, remember that the AI just learns from our our past mistakes, so the AI is a more efficient way of making our mistakes again.
Yeah, yeah. I think the most illustrative example was that Amazon, who tried to use AI to fix their hiring.
So all the human bias would be gone. And they trained it on their training data from their previous HR.
From their hiring?
Yeah. And what they did was train an amazing racist.
[36:51] And sexist, actually. The biggest issue was, yeah, basically gender.
The AI immediately zoned in on the fact that gender was a determining factor, or just baked it in.
There we go, problem solved. We've now baked in all of your past biases forevermore. Anyway.
I was just reading an article about how a huge number of people have been hired in countries that have low income to identify things for the training data.
So saying for self-driving cars, for example, this is a bicycle, this is a car, this is a curb, this is a person in a wheelchair, identifying things like that, and for AR and VR, and all the different things that we're training stuff for.
And the original thought was, okay, when that's done, we won't need those jobs anymore.
[37:41] It's actually the other way around, because it's the edge cases that all matter, is finding all of the edge cases.
Like they gave the example of the woman that was, a woman was killed by a self-driving car because she was not on a bicycle, She was not a bicycle, she was walking a bicycle.
And that had not yet been identified. And so they believe that that job will probably, most likely never go away. Now it's paying like $10 for eight hours of work, and it's boring as you can possibly imagine. Tagging images, basically.
That is what it is, it's tagging of images. But it's employing a vast number of people while we're worried about losing jobs.
There's this fast industry growing of people to do this incredibly boring work.
That's so really, I'm gonna, this is, wow. Well, you just blow my brain a bit here because the conversation keeps on going like, Yeah, but you don't need very many AI engineers.
But that's looking at the elite jobs in AI, not the vast, vast majority of other jobs created by AI.
Because how many people can work for open AI is always the question.
When you try to have the argument that, well, this will make new jobs, yeah, but how many people can work for open AI?
But that's not thinking about it the right way. There's all of the more mundane jobs created by AI as well.
And we'll probably end up with AI being used to find the edge cases that AI knows it needs help with.
But it's still going to need help.
[39:09] Right, right. I'll pop that under interesting insights. Yeah, please.
Since we just talked about it.
Please do. Okay, so, oh yes, while we're warning people, oopsie, we probably shouldn't get distracted in the warnings bit. That's probably a bad idea. Anyway, still in warning land, folks, if you have an ASUS router, ASUS have released an advisory telling you to patch your router ASAP or block any service that is facing the world.
So if you have some sort of world-facing service on your Asus router, block it now or way, way, way better yet, patchy, patchy, patch, patch.
That's always better. Better to patch than to work around. Wow. I'm glad there's a patch.
Yeah. And also, it's good that they're the ones telling us, right? This isn't like security bits or someone saying, you know, or naked security or someone saying, and there's no fix and everyone's doomed. This is Asa saying we have fixed this now update yourself. That's a better message.
[40:05] Now, worthy warnings is our section where a lot of icky stuff goes. I am sorry to say Steven Goetz and all fellow Canadians, you guys need to be on the lookout. UPS, their Canadian website was a bit leaky in terms of information and you could use their portal that's supposed to be for tracking a package. You know the way if you know the package number.
[40:28] Where you can see some information about where it is and tell them you won't be in and that kind of stuff. Well, that was unfortunately leaking out the phone numbers associated with the orders, which meant that you could do extremely convincing phishing attacks because you would have an actual tracking number for an actual package.
The victim was actually waiting on a phone number with the actual phone number of the person.
Right. Just think of how convincing you can be if as an attacker you have that kind of information. So if someone sends you an SMS message in Canada looking for you to pay some sort of a fee or something, be really, really careful that you are not going to a website that's like bloody, bloody, you know, say ups.someotherwebsite.com or any of these tricks they use or some other website forward slash ups.com. You know, these kind of tricks where you're not really on UPS's actual website.
Would it be a true statement that the highest value of this hack would be while those packages that were in transit at the time of the hack are still in transit?
That would be true. A week from now, it'd be less valuable of a hack.
[41:37] I mean, it's got your phone number, but it's got your phone number, so they'll have to change the hacking a bit. But knowing what you've ordered definitely makes you as an attacker seem more plausible. So you may have to change your story instead of saying it's a better package you're expecting. It could be, you know, saying that we've discovered an issue or a safety issue with the package we delivered. Well, and I don't know about you, but I'm not looking at the numbers and knowing which one they are, like ever. And I know there's apps to do this, and I never get around to loading them, or I load them, and then I forget to look at them, and I'm always sitting going, oh look, UPS says blah blah blah blah blah is coming. Wonder what that is. Guess I'll wait and sit around and find out, because you know, it's coming from Amazon, we know that, but I don't know what it is. That's true, actually. I very often get notifications going, will you deliver a package tomorrow? I say, will you? Okay. I'm waiting for one from the States now.
Packages. Oh yeah, yeah, you are probably eight days away at this point.
Eight days! That's actually good timing. I get messages for Steve's too, and so we both go and grab it and fight over whose it is.
[42:47] Well, actually the Amazon app is great because it gives you a push notification telling you what it is with the picture. So that takes a lot of the guesswork out of it.
Yeah, but I have to go open the app and I get notifications in email that say USPS is coming with the package. There's something coming today, I have no idea what it is.
Oh yeah, I definitely get those too. Might not be for me. Yeah, so what Bart's referring to is the company is MIFA, I think, M-I-F-A, is that the company that made the watch bands that you recommended?
Yeah.
[43:18] Yeah, so they came out with an orange NASA logo watch band. Yes.
And so Bart said that is the gift he would like for the work he did did last summer taking over? Or was it when I was in Antarctica maybe?
It was autumn or winter. No, it was Antarctica. It was more recent than that. I'm bad. I'm only half a year behind. I'm not a full year behind.
Just for people to know, I do buy a little present for Bart and Alistair each time. Alistair's pretty good at finding some way that I don't have to ship something, but this was too cool for Bart not to pick. And by the way, I bought one for Steve too, because orange is his favourite colour and NASA. How could it not be, right?
Exactly. It's the tactical band with a NASA logo.
It's like, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. And these aren't available in Ireland, which is why it was just perfect timing, because they were, I think the Mac Observer, you know, say, oh, new cool bands.
And I was like, yeah, I want and they click the buy button and it said, we do not ship outside the United States.
I was like, no.
I want to say it was Mac Rumors.
It was one of the other ones.
It was definitely one of the Mac sites. Yeah, it might have been Mac Rumors.
One of the ones that post, oh, Cultivac. Cultivac, OK.
Yeah, they have their own store and stuff, and they have offers and stuff.
And they're often really cool stuff, but I couldn't buy. I was very sad. Anyway.
[44:29] I sure hope it's the right size when it gets there. Yeah, you can tell it's a light security bits when we're just faffing about talking about about watch bands, but.
Indeed. Now, you actually might like this, Nextory, because you've read, you actually read the entire NIST standard. So the World Wide Web Consortium, the W3C, have brought a new standard to a major milestone in getting it adopted.
[44:53] It's officially a candidate recommendation, is what it has officially become. But that is actually a long way in the process of being formalized. So this is something called Secure Payments confirmation. And this is going to be implemented in browser by the browser manufacturers so that it can't be spoofed by a website.
So basically the website will tell the browser, I need you, the browser, to security challenge the user before making this credit card payment.
And then it will use technology that's under the Fido Alliance, which is basically the same technology that powers passkeys, the same APIs that power passkeys, for you to say, yes, I want to buy this.
And so you'll then have a cryptographic... So this is instead of an SMS or something?
Yes. So instead of having to do an SMS or something to confirm a credit card payment, you will do it cryptographically with the browser providing the UI, not the website, so they can't be phished and stuff because it's the browser UI.
[45:49] So build it into the browser. And based on the open standards from the FIDO Alliance, so there's lots of things to love here, W3C standard, FIDO Alliance, good strong crypto.
And the end result should be that one of the very common avenues of credit card fraud will be nipped in the bud. Now that doesn't stop credit card over the phone and stuff, but again, the more avenues of fraud you cut down, the better.
So this, I really like seeing this as a standard.
I'm trying to think about, I don't seem to get challenged with, when I try to pay with a credit card on a website, I just put it in the old website.
Yeah you're not in Europe. I don't need an SMS or anything.
Yeah in Europe we have a new law that requires strong authentication.
So banks have been forced to implement strong authentication.
So for us at the moment, It involves a lot of faffing about with bank-specific apps.
[46:37] Because there is no standard using a bank, but that's that's a bank.
This is using a credit card on a website.
Correct. So our credit cards are issued to us by a bank or by a financial institution.
The financial institution that issues the card is under legal obligations in Europe to verify every transaction, which means we have to do a two factor off as part of every time we use our credit card on the Web, but because there is no standard built into the browser that involves us having to use bank specific apps or credit card issue or specific apps on our smartphones.
Authenticate for going to a website.
Oh, yes.
So this is why for us this is going to mean it's just going to happen as easily as a passkey instead of at the moment, basically on the website that I buy the credit card, it says, you know, we are redirecting you to your bank and the website redirects and then there's a whole big thing that says now open your phone and then type in this two digit number on your phone and then your phone says, OK, I got that now go back to the website.
It feels like doing 2FA.
Yes.
[47:39] Yeah. So this would be nice. And it also means that chances are you guys will, like with chip and pin and stuff, you guys will sneak over the horrible phase. We'll have gone through all the pain. Skip over.
You guys go straight to the good standard. So, yay. Thank you. Yes.
Speaking of the future, we have past keys being tested by Apple for signing into Apple products.
So the app, the iTunes store, the Apple store, the developer website, iCloud.com, those kind of Apple properties in iOS 17 and Mac OS Sonoma.
You if you're on those betas, you can use passkeys to authenticate those Apple sites.
I last I heard it was rolling out. So you may not see it yet, but you will eventually see it.
That is that is that sounds about right. actually, yes, because it did say starting to test, I believe, is the phraseology I So that certainly sends like they're being careful, careful.
[48:35] I wonder how that's going to work if you're, like, let's say you've got a beta phone.
I have my beta phone sitting right here.
Let's say you've got a beta phone and you turn on the passkey support, you go in and you do that. Does that mess you up when you try to go to the same site from a non-beta website?
No, no. Or a non-beta device? No, because what you have is multiple methods of authentication associated with the one account.
So if you can't have the easy method, then they make you jump through the old multi-factor authentication groups. Good. So I think that's actually one of the biggest.
It's one of the biggest takeaways from the whole passkey thing that I think people need to get into the habit of thinking.
So we're used to thinking there's a one to one mapping between a website and authentication.
Right. I authenticate to this website in this way. But the new normal is that you have many factors of authentication and you will use whatever one is available to you at the time. And so you may have one passkey that is Steve's and one passkey that's yours, and you may have a hardware token, and you could have 20 different ways of authenticating to the one account, and that is the future, is a many to one relationship, and that also means that pass keys is not the scary thing, because you can fall back to the old ways.
And what I imagine is going to happen is that the password is going to go away and the fallback will be we email you a one time code.
[49:57] OK, OK, interesting. Yeah, that's what I think we're headed to anyway.
Yeah, so that's some more passkey development.
And then you just popped into the show notes one we missed two weeks ago when we were all high on Apple's shiny newness.
So another company that is getting closer to a passkey delivery is 1Password, who have now put passkey support into beta, which is actually perfect timing.
If you're someone who uses Google services and you do so cross-platform, well, if you're now using the 1Password beta, you can now have your passkey go with you between iOS and your Android device and your Windows device.
It'll just go everywhere. That's the promise of 1Password's passkey support, is that you get to jump outside of the ecosystems.
I'm a big fan of, for myself, of testing things and living on the edge.
I always get a little queasy when I think about 1Password and the word beta together.
Like if there's one thing I don't want to get screwed up, it's gonna be my password.
So I'm looking at that and I'm jonesing for it, but I just don't know, Bart.
I don't run it either. I don't run it either.
I've still, I mentioned weeks ago when Google came out with Passkeys for authenticating to the Google services, that I set it up and then it said, yeah, you sort of did, but you're not on iCloud Keychain, so it's not working.
It's gotten weirder. It sort of fixed itself. So when I go to sign in to a Google service.
[51:27] My nosilicast at gmail.com is my Google authenticating email, but I used to use allisonatpodfee.com as well because my email and everything was routed through Google.
When I moved it over to iCloud, that simply has no meaning anymore.
And every time I try to authenticate with the passkey, it goes, okay, you want it for allisonatpodfee.com.
And I say, no, use another account, go to my nosilicast at gmail.com.
It says, okay, you've already got a passkey for this.
I say, okay, great, use it. It says, okay, for allison at podfeed.com, and I'm stuck in this infinite loop I can't get out of. But I think sometimes it does authenticate me. It's very weird.
It has not been smooth, let me put it that way. That's interesting.
Somewhere, there's a wire across somewhere. I wonder if deleting all the passkeys and starting over is...
Where is the passkey? So if you're using Apple's keychain, then the passkey is in the keychain, and then...
So the private key is the passkey itself.
[52:27] Am I though? Do we know that that's what I'm using? Unless you've installed something else, what else could be doing it?
I don't know.
This is still in the magical method. If you're on iOS and you're using... I need to do it now.
Oh, but it's got a keychain symbol. Yeah, so it's in your keychain.
I think it just worked. That time it worked. I don't know. It's weird.
I don't know, it's weird.
But I don't want that experience with 1Password, you know, if they're still figuring it out.
I think I'll sit on the bench just a wee bit longer on this one.
There are people who enjoy these kind of things and let them do their thing.
And I'll sit over here and wait for it to be fully cooked.
I like a pie, I want it fully baked.
[53:14] Okay, so that then brings us on to interesting insights. And again, goodness me, I feel like we're on a branding exercise here.
So a podcast that one of our Naseela castaways put me on two years ago.
Well, I wish I was better at remembering who to give credit to, but it was definitely one of our Naseela cast.
I think it might have been Geeko Supremo, but it was definitely in Slack.
I think I'm almost certain it was Caleb who put me on to this podcast years ago called The Change Log. It's very nerdy, very geeky.
And I'd say I have a playlist called Dip In and Dip Out. And they're in the Dip In and Dip Out because depending on the topic I do or don't listen because they're like an hour and a half long shows.
[53:52] They had an interview with 1Password's lead of Passkey Support.
So heck did I listen to that. And it was good to hear that the person herself was just a fun person. She was really good at explaining things. And everything she said chimed with me, sounded right, was sort of in line with my vision of the universe and the future. And I just thought, But OK, this is good.
So it's great to see one password thinking the way they are about these things.
And it's a good interview. And she was a great guest.
So good.
I will definitely, definitely add that one. There you go. It was on June 15th.
For those interested when you're looking for it.
Here we go. And palate cleanser. Then why do you have your podcasting app open?
I think it must be a year and a half, might even be two years ago.
There was a really good podcast from the BBC World Service. It was I think it was an eight part series called The Lazarus Heist.
And that series focused on one single spectacular.
[55:00] Basically malware attack where the Lazarus group from basically the government of North Korea stole a billion with a B dollars from the Bank of Malaysia.
It is to this day one of the most amazing cyber crimes ever.
Now, they were able to recover, I think it's 80 percent of the billion with a B.
I remember that.
Yeah. If there's 10, even if there's 10 percent missing of a billion dollar heist, that's a lot of money that's still missing. Right.
But, of course, the Lazarus group haven't been quiet since. And so the same hosts, including a Korean-American lady who was a journalist in Korea for much of her life, she's one of the main drivers of the show, they have continued their reporting on North Korea, and specifically on North Korea's hacking group.
So season two is, it's not like season one where it was one thing they focused on.
They focused on the arc, basically telling us a story of why, how, how it's been evolving.
Basically, they zoomed out and gave us the big picture view of the Lazarus group, what they're up to, what's motivating them.
Absolutely fascinating. And so many of the stories we've talked about week by week by week.
[56:18] They're all in here, right?
But it puts them together into a cohesive story. And there is a story and there is an arc and the series tells it very nicely.
So I think it's a ten part series this time rather than an eight part.
But it's it's really good. It's called The Lazarus Heist season two.
And it starts off with the story of and I know we covered it.
It was called Jackpotting, where they found malware in ATM machines that would make them just spit out infinity money.
And they had managed to arrange for thousands of mules around the world simultaneously on one day to go to ATMs all over the world and take out money and launder it successfully.
And that's the starting point. I was going to say that would be a lot of money pouring out of one machine to get to 10 billion.
But yes, but they had they had literally hundreds of money mules all arranged through a massive, you know, almost like a drug organisation where you would have leaders in each country who would have hired out people and everyone gets a cut.
But nonetheless, on one night, all of these ATMs all over the world were spitting out money and it was all being collected up and forwarded back to North Korea.
It's really quite spectacular. and that's where they start. And they don't get any more, you know, they don't get less sophisticated from there. It sounds like a great spy movie.
Kind of is. I mean, it is. Yeah, it is, especially for a country that you think of like North Korea, who are not particularly...the average North Korean is not technologically advanced.
[57:42] But the state-sponsored hacking group are. So maybe that's how they funded a lot of stuff there.
Not just maybe, one of the primary drivers for the Lazarus Group is the nuclear program because North Korea is under massive sanctions.
Right, right.
[58:01] And of course cryptocurrency plays a role because of course the North Koreans were very interested in crypto.
Untraceable money. Do you think so? Yeah.
Yeah, fascinating series and BBC World Service do very high quality podcasts.
So they're very well researched, very well put together, very well produced.
Definitely highly recommended.
The Lazarus Group. Sorry, The Lazarus Heist season two.
Cool, that does sound that that actually sounds like something something Steve would like.
He loves that kind of mystery stuff where you've got a lot of crazy plots and things going on.
If you have a road trip coming up, Alison, It's perfect road trip material.
Yeah, I don't think we do. I think we're stationary for a few weeks anyway.
Oh, okay. No penguins, no polar bears?
No, no, nothing until MacStock, and then we're flying. Oh, when is MacStock?
Uh, July, late July. Sold out, believe it or not.
[59:07] Excellent. They are having a digital version, though. You can do a remote watch and all that. So, that is July 22nd, 23rd.
Ooh, that's actually quite interesting. I think there might be an annual leave.
Ooh, that would be fun.
That would be very okay. Cool. This has nothing to do with anything, but I want to tell you about it anyway. When in In the early 1980s, I had an office mate named Barry Ginn.
We sat together for maybe two years, and he's going to be at Mac Stock.
Oh, cool. So, I literally have not seen this man in 40 years, and he's going to be there.
The funniest part is I have a toy that we used to play with in my office when we were talking to each other.
I had a slinky, a very small diameter slinky, with a thing of silly putty in it.
And we used to swing this slinky back and forth. You could do it, like, towards your face, and it was this real weird effect, because if you swung it correctly, it would come close to your face and go away and not hit you in the face.
And we used to play with that thing all the time. I am going to pack it and bring it to Max.
Oh, cool. Excellent. I wonder if he'll remember.
The best part was one day, I came in and he said, Allison, have you tried it with the big slinky?
And I said, no. And I grabbed the big slinky, put the silly putty in it, and swung it and hit myself right in the face. Yeah, that's what happened to me.
[1:00:34] Anyway, sounds like our kind of person. Excellent. I think so. I think so. All right. That's.
[1:00:43] About as late as they get. It is. And I guess we should say that's a good thing, given that it's security bits. So even though it's not the world is ending, if you know, there are still plenty of important updates here. So as always, folks, remember to stay patched, so you stay secure. All right. I'm going to have to wind up the show for this week, but make sure you go listen or watch Andrea Ghez.
I mean, she is so amazing. Did I mention that?
I'm so excited. It's the coolest interview ever.
Anyway, did you know you can email me to tell me how awesome that interview was by sending it to alison at podfeet.com?
If you have a question or a suggestion, or you got a question like Janet that I may or may not be able to answer, send it on over.
Hey, you can send me the responses to Janet at alison at podfeet.com.
You can follow me on Mastodon at podfeet at chaos.social.
Remember, everything good starts with podfeet.com. If you want to join in the conversation, you can join our Slack community, and you totally should at podfeet.com slash slack, where you can talk to me and all of the other lovely Nocilla castaways.
In fact, that would be another great place to tell me what I should have answered to Janet about using 1Password and Keychain at the same time.
All right, you can support the show by going to podfeet.com slash Patreon, or with a one-time donation, like Janet did, at potfee.com slash PayPal.
