I couldn't praise it enough of how easy it handled all passwords. [1Password](https://agilebits.com/onepassword) wasn't cheap, but was worth every penny. If you never used this sort of apps before, it basically remembered all your passwords and filled for you via browser's extensions with one shortcut (command + \) for OSX. When you registered a new account, 1Password could generate a random password for you and then save the password automatically. Everything sync'ed with Dropbox and there were apps on both Android and iOS. Mobile version was free to read all your existing passwords--no editing allowed though. I didn't use auto-fill passwords in their mobile apps though since it only worked in their own webview. If you asked me, desktop version was the one. You needed that in order to see how good it was. The rest was to support it.

I had tried LastPass too, but I prefer 1Password still. There were promotions every now and then, around 20%-50% off.

I had XBMC and BOXEE, including Boxee Box. I used to try [Plex](https://plex.tv/) long ago, but I didn't particularly like how Plex worked. However, this era, mobile devices were ubiquitous. It was troublesome finding apps that just worked for every codecs. Plex handled everything like a boss.

If you paired Plex with [SickRage](https://github.com/SiCKRAGETV/SickRage), then you'd got a much better Netflix or Hulu.
Plex was free, but if you'd like to support them, you could pay for Plex Pass with a bit more feature like offline syncing on mobile devices. I had Plex Pass, but I hadn't used their extra features much since I prefered to watch things online anyway.

For Plex server, it didn't need much. Any old computer would do the trick. Intel i3 could handle 1-2 transcoding active clients with ease, but if you planned for more clients, you'd better off with Intel i5.

[Authy](https://www.authy.com/) was the only mobile-centric apps since it was for two-factor authentication. I used to use Google Authenticator back then, but dropped all 2-factor since it was pain in the butt when changing to new mobile devices or having many mobile devices. Authy fixed all that with multiple devices syncing on both iOS and Android. Since I found Authy, I'd enabled 2-factor authentication for every accounts possible. I knew it would not be a problem regardless of which devices I hadn at a time and it's free.
