      I wish they had a song lookup in addition to the artist lookup. I have so many songs in my “liked songs” list in my Spotify and it gets difficult to try to organize them into moods and flavors.

    12ft.io

    if you see an article online but it asks for a subscription before you can read it, you can put the webpage of that article in 12ft.io and it’ll give you a version you can read without such guards. The person who made it says there’s a special code in those sites that doesn’t block the article for search engines, as doing so would cause the google/bing/etc to block that result. So they just found that code and put it in a webpage for you

        Just don’t be that guy that uses a website to generate passwords. If you’re going to generate passwords it needs to be a trusted utility that runs locally otherwise someone has your password.

          If the website generating the password a) doesn’t know the site/account and b) doesn’t know the username then it doesn’t matter. And c) with 2fa knowing a password doesn’t grant access by itself.

          If a site is decently coded, it would be run in client side scripting like JavaScript anyway. It wouldn’t require anything being sent to the site.

            If a site is decently coded

            This is the crux of the issue. The average internet user, the kind of user going to a random website to generate a password, would not be able to find this out. For all we know, even without the username, a randomly generated password could be saved to a wordlist after it’s generated. That would be pretty smart, since now you have a list of known used passwords that someone went through the effort to generate to secure something more valuable. (Which would refute your points A and B)

            And your point C, not always. By your same logic, you’d be comfortable using “password” as long as you have 2FA? There is always a possibility of 2FA being bypassed through some other vulnerability depending on its implementation. This is why it’s TWO (or multi) factor authentication. In case one factor is compromised, you have another layer of defense. If you use a compromised password (by either using “password” or a sketchy password generator), then you’ve effectively reverted yourself back to one factor authentication. Or zero, if you didn’t have MFA.

            Don’t listen to anyone suggesting otherwise. Don’t use random websites. Either stick to a password manager to generate them for you, or take it completely offline with a dice roll-based generation.

      This is a collection of salvaged original Geocities sites. There must be hundreds and hundreds of random people’s homepages from the mid 90s to early 2000s. Some of them still have working links. The “Hollywood” section is the best because it has endless fan pages of 90s media and celebrities.
