What first world problem did you have today?

There must have been some massive data breach recently because I've gotten about a dozen password reset texts and emails from Venmo over the last few days. Got one from Cash App too.

I haven't gotten any texts or prompts to reset.

Nothing from Venmo for me. Just checked my account and everything looked normal.

I used to get like 30 calls a day saying someone was trying to get into my account on Venmo, usually like 7-8 in a row. I was also getting a lot of emails about it, I have an account but I never used it or added any cards or anything so I just ignored it. Still not sure if it was spam or people actually trying to get in but it made me want to use it even less.

Sucks when that crap happens since you can practice the best security in the world but you're still at the mercy of other organization's security too. I'm on a bunch of haveibeenpwned lists myself and not much I could have done to avoid it.

Woke up this morning, and put my Star Trek playlist on my computer to make coffee and start the morning,

First tune was DS9(3am at Quarks). That's where the select bar was, and it's one of the best tunes ever, so I double clicked it.

I'm in the process of making coffee, and Where My Heart Will Take Me comes on. The Full Fucking Version. My hands are full, and I can't do anything about it.

I don't know what I did to anger the gods, but I never want to do that again.

Nothing is safe in the cloud, unfortunately. Best practices are:

1. Keep data & records backups
2. Use non-SMS 2FA
3. Do monthly password rotations via calendar reminders & use unique passwords for every site

Unfortunately, this is a HUGE hassle, so nobody actually does it lol

I have been getting a ton of spam lately. I get voicemails on the daily from "Google" calling about a password change from my Galaxy S21 (don't own one) and I need to press 1 if it wasn't me. I'm also getting spam emails coming through to my inbox about PayPal password, plus all these texts and emails about Venmo PW reset. There must have been some major leak recently that I'm not yet aware of.

I'm working from home and need to make a phone call but my cat is all being cuddly and purring too loudly.

Made my world famous vegetable bowl, and the baby carrots are ginormous. I like them when they're petite. I don't know why the size is variable. They should be virtually identical due to the magic of modern mechanization. Also the jalapeño could be hotter.
