KeePass flaw allows retrieval of master password
DotNet offers the SecureString class to keep a string encrypted in Memory, but as long as the OS does not natively support this concept, the only advantage is that it resides in memory for a shorter time, the disadvantage is that SecureStrings are easier to search for.
- System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient is not recommended anymore; what is the alternative?
-
Bitwarden PINs can be brute-forced
Note the KeePass's resistance to the attack mentioned depends on the security of .NET's secure string, which, here's what Microsoft has to say about it (https://github.com/dotnet/platform-compat/blob/master/docs/D...)
As for KeePassXC, last I checked it didn't even bother.

Ever Find A Dead Man's Switch On A Network/Domain?
TIL. Looks like the deprecation note recommends MailKit.

Disabilities and Windows Passwords
Well of course, but it does have to be passed to the module that generates the hashes AD uses in the first place. And as I said, the standard password reset screen is bound to store the password in plain text somewhere as well.

Embedded logo in HTML email sent from PowerShell
This won’t help you with your question, but I figured I should warn against using send-mailmessage.

API pagination help?
Some of the reasons for not using Hashtable or other non-generic collection types are outlined here. That's why Microsoft doesn't recommend their usage in new implementations across all of its API documentation.

And if you really want to be secure you need to something better than a SecureString: https://github.com/dotnet/platform-compat/blob/master/docs/DE0001.md

macOS for your daily driver? Got a M1 MBP running parallels at the moment. Tips? Tools?
Did a real quick look around which you've probably seen already, but brew install openssl will probs give you OpenSSL 1.1 and looks like https://github.com/jborean93/omi / https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSWSMan/2.2.0 was updated to tell it to look for 1.1 vs. 1.0 on OSX.

What's One Thing that PowerShell dosen't do that you wish it did?
Have you considered a fork of the WSMan lib I've worked on that's distributed through the PSWSMan module. It replaces the builtin WSMan lib(s) to fix a whole bunch of problems that I've mentioned here https://github.com/jborean93/omi#changes-from-upstream-omi. It makes the Linux -> Windows connection through WSMan so much easier to use and fixes one of the fundamental problems the builtin WSMan lib has with HTTPS, no certificate verification.

Enter-PSSession from Debian to Windows
The WSMan libs provided on Linux for PowerShell are quite troublesome but ultimately I've found that only Kerberos works properly which can be difficult to set up on Linux correctly. I've created a fork for this library which can be found under my omi repository. It fixes a whole bunch of issues with the provided library from PowerShell making it a lot easier to use. To install it you need to run the following as sudo

Connect-IPPSSession using PS Core 7.1.2 on macOS not working
Then after you close and reopen PowerShell the new library is now used for any WSMan operations. You find find out more about this fork on https://github.com/jborean93/omi.
