EAT GIRL Mac OS
As noted in a tweet by Lemi Orhan Ergin in November of 2017, there apparently is a big security issue in the Users and Groups area of Mac OS X High Sierra (it doesn’t appear to happen in earlier versions of Mac OS X).
I remember how stable System 7.6.1 felt, the new UI overhaul in Mac OS 8 which felt so modern, the rocky initial transition to Mac OS X (I ran 10.0 on an iBook and found it to be so unusable I switched back to Mac OS 9 and then went to Mac OS X again with 10.1) that was then resolved and became a solid and fantastic OS. This is great for Mac OS since I’m able to store the e-mail database on an External HD. I have a 2018 Mac Mini with 256 GB SSD. Since storage on the “home” SSD is precious I was easily able to (via aliases) store music and photo files an attached external HD. Get more done with the new Google Chrome. A more simple, secure, and faster web browser than ever, with Google’s smarts built-in.

Here’s the gist of the problem that Lemi Orhan Ergin found:

“We noticed a *HUGE* security issue at MacOS High Sierra. Anyone can login as “root” with empty password after clicking on login button several times.”
Fortunately, there is an easy fix until this gets patched (which may have already happened in the upcoming Mac OS X 10.13.2 beta). The fix is to assign a strong password to the built-in root account by following the instructions given by Apple here. In essence, you have to perform the following steps:

You can also set a password with the Terminal by typing in ‘sudo passwd -u root’ and hitting return.
