  • Sure. It can be “less” secure from a procedural perspective because it increases the complexity of the user accessing their info. The more difficult/complicated it is for the user, the more likely of user mistakes exposing their accounts in one way or another. Obviously there are password apps that allow for seamless login (some of those can also be problematic), which alleviates the complexity, but then you have multiple email accounts to manage on some level for the various services and websites you use.

    End of day, if it works, it works, but it’s important to pay attention to your user experience while also taking in to account the various tools (strong pass, mfa, etc) when setting yourself up. If you get annoyed that you have too many emails to manage, you might be more likely to not log out, or not use mfa, etc.

    edit wasn’t trying to say it was WAY more insecure to use separate emails, just that it probably wasn’t necessary if you have different pass and use mfa. Sometimes ‘more, better’ isn’t ‘more-better’.


  • They’d only have all account info if the passwords were also the same and you didn’t avail yourself of 2fa/mfa. It’s better to have different strong passwords/long passphrases and use mfa. Separate email accounts become their own vectors for account hacking, not to mention that any personal security scheme you have that becomes too complicated with multiple accounts to juggle is it’s own security problem.






  • I haven’t. I’m at 300 hours or so and actively avoiding completing the main story like I always do with Bethesda games. I’m aware of NG+, but don’t know exactly what it is. I’m content to base build and dick around for now. There are a couple quest lines that are bugged so I’m waiting on patches to continue them. I have a couple of outposts that have the game crashing bug when you try to open your scanner, so I’m waiting on a patch to continue those. I’m at a point where the QOL issues and the mounting number of bugs directly affecting my play are going to see me putting SF on the back burner for a few months until some real patches are released to address all this stuff. Still dig the game and look forward to completing it when its improved and they support the work of modders better. …in answer to what you were asking… Tldr: I haven’t completed the main quest. I personally don’t care about spoilers.




  • …as I’m thinking of it, they could do an early-ish mission that has the player connect the storage at the lodge to the storage on the ship. Later they could update that as they began building outposts. Ffs, there could be some BS in-game, story reason that the player finds a piece of experimental tech that uses a type of the space-folding technology to link the storage containers…

    edit and to answer your actual question, I’ve seen some decent YouTube videos that talk about outpost building so you don’t waste your time screwing up. Search beginner outpost starfield



  • Vivaldi tab management is pretty great. Vivaldi is designed for power users that always have a ton of tabs open. There are a bunch of other features as well that I use regularly, but I could see that it might be a bit of a learning curve for those that just want to install a browser and immediately know where everything is. There has been more than a few times that I discovered yet another efficiency using Vivaldi and felt like I was getting more from it. Definitely a browser for someone willing to spend time configuring it for their use case. Keyboard shortcuts ftw!
