          Vaultwarden is not compiled from Bitwarden’s code, it’s a separate project and codebase but designed to be compatible with Bitwarden’s API.

          Bitwarden is open source and you can self-host it but IIRC it’s a bit more complex and resource-hungry than Vaultwarden.

            They have totally different design goals which is why Bitwarden is more resource-hungry and more complex to deploy. Bitwarden can scale up to large use cases such as companies with hundreds of thousands of employees (it’s what they run on the hosted version, after all), whereas Vaultwarden is designed to be small and light for home use cases where you almost always have <10 users total.

        Hm i switched from KeePass to Bitwarden because the latter lets me use my passwords on multiple devices and as a Firefox extension that enters my credentials at a shortcut.

        Can you elaborate why you think KeePass is better?

          I think it’s more flexible. Also, due to the databases just being normal files you can sync them with syncthing between your devices.

          In my case I run a NAS at home on which they’re stored so I don’t need to sync them. I just open them directly from the NAS.

        I found keepassium for the work phone and I was in love that I could keep a separate db with my OTPs under a password and backed up.

        Then I left that job and had to split my OTPs. Vanilla keepass for droid will gives me the OTP values for gitlab etc, so it’s good there, but Vanilla keepassium for Android has no camera/QR->OTP input that I have yet, one that works like keepassium does and is all compatible down the line. I’d love to keep using it to maintain the existing separate keepass OTP db I have.

        Do you (or anyone) know of a good combo for droid that gets

        • keepass
        • backup to box/gdoc/etc
        • qr for OTP

        In one final package? Does XC do it in a way we think may be compatible?

          Keepass2Android does all that on android. It natively supports Dropbox, google drive, one drive, nextcloud, pcloud, and mega, plus you can use WebDAV or sftp. When editing an entry, the totp setup has the ability to scan qr codes with the camera. Plus, the whole thing is free and open source.

          They even have a package on F-Droid, though that build lacks the built-in support for cloud syncing (due to F-Droid restrictions prohibiting binaries, I think).

          I’ve used this app for years on android, paired with various cloud sync options as providers change their restrictions and capabilities. On desktop, I use keepassxc.

        Is this really that useful though?

        It’s very useful if you don’t use a password manager and/or reuse passwords.

        The most useful part about it to me is the API. You can tie it in to Active Directory to blacklist all hashes that appear in any breach, plus expire/force a password change if any user on your domain uses a password that has been in a breach. It completely eliminates that vector from threat actors immediately.

        So yeah, I would call this intensely useful.

    It plots every genre of music on a 2D spectrum (“The calibration is fuzzy, but in general down is more organic, up is more mechanical and electric; left is denser and more atmospheric, right is spikier and bouncier.”)

    You can click on any genre and get band recommendations.

        From the description, this site seems to either be a Spotify research project, or at least powered by Spotify data in some way. It’s not clear to me.

        Every Noise at Once is an ongoing attempt at an algorithmically-generated, readability-adjusted scatter-plot of the musical genre-space, based on data tracked and analyzed for 6,259 genre-shaped distinctions by Spotify as of 2023-07-12.

        Personally, I cancelled my spotify account and moved to a combination of Plex and Tidal, but this project is just too cool not to use.

      Maybe this will help.

      I LOVE “dissolved girl” but I’m not as Gaga about the rest of the band’s material. That sultry style cut with that music tempo is amazing.

      It’s like Finger Eleven has their their one massive departure track ‘paranoid’ – all good, but very different.

      I’ll be checking this in the hopes it’ll match a track and give me more sexy molasses for my brain.

          Should I be concerned if they are recent downloads? I dunno much about this but some are as recent as half a day ago.

      This is terrifying. Is the only way to block this information to use a VPN?

        Yeah, use a VPN and make sure it and your network settings are configured properly. I’m running my stuff in a docker image that’s already preconfigured to prevent IP leakage with VPN support.

    Without endorsing these liberal American news outlets,

    https://text.npr.org/

    https://lite.cnn.com/

    Ad-free, js-free, tracker-free, bs-free news articles. Just text. Honestly, it’s a bit of a shock to me that these even exist.

      CNN is now owned by a MAGA-loving billionaire. Definitely not a liberal news source at all - hence the many changes happening at a slow trickle.

      Wow the CNN lite thing is awesome! I think it’d be great to set up a permanent redirect to it from the CNN website. Probably will use TamperMonkey and set it up

      This is great. Reminds me of a late night show that used to be on in the UK featuring minimalist techno played against a backdrop of stock 60s and 70s space race footage. It was called The Trip for those that remember it.

          The Trip. I thought it would be hard to find because there’s another much more recent, much more popular, but entirely unrelated show with the same name, but it turns out some legend made a playlist of them!
