Lee hunts down a Linux clipboard and screenshot tool, sparking a discussion of the PrintScreen key, ALT and SHIFT options, and a recommendation for Flameshot. Joan brings the biggest topic of the day — password help — which opens up a wide-ranging conversation about NIST's updated password guidance, built-in browser password managers, Bitwarden, Proton Pass, NordPass, and why longer passwords or passphrases beat complex ones.
