Vaultwarden isn’t actually susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks, since the passwords are encrypted and decrypted on the end device. But some relevant metadata do go over the connection so it’d better have TLS.

Right? 😂

How the mighty have fallen. I got my OnePlus One in 2015 with CyanogenMod preinstalled (although I reinstalled the vanilla OS after, and rooted it easily). Enshitification indeed, no brand is safe.

No, I think they should ignore it and let the British government do what they will. Again, they are not bound by UK legislation. Similarly they don’t block Chinese IPs because of censorship laws over there.

I’m not an expert but I feel like organizations like Wikipedia that are not based in the UK and do not do business in the UK shouldn’t fight or comply with this nonsense. If the British government instructs ISPs to block access to Wikipedia, let them, and see the uproar it generates.

Does it actually happen to people? All servers I worked with both had a back door (or two), and someone at the data centre (during work hours at least) you could contact in an emergency.

Matrix, with the Element app on phones.

Full disk encryption with LUKS. Don’t really see much point in a TPM for booting my personal device, although it definitely has use cases and I don’t know what’s backdoorsy about it.

Interesting, I’ll keep it in mind next time I have to deal with this problem (hopefully never but who knows).

A few years ago I was in contact with researchers that were developing an AI tool to parse PDFs (I think they didn’t care about converting to editable formats, but extracting data), from their material I got the impression that it’s extremely difficult to do right using traditional algorithms.

It’s a curse because it’s used for things other than what it’s intended to. It’s doing a good job representing printed material, but unfortunately people very commonly expect it to be something more akin to a word processor file.

I know the pain. While there are definitely solutions that work sometimes, there’s just no “one size fits all” that I’m aware of. PDFs can represent text very differently internally.

What I did for one project where extracting the text produced a complete mess was to convert the PDF pages to images and then OCR them…

Hate? Digital decluttering feels really good, for me anyway.

No. But funny how people interpret posts in their own cultural context. When reading the post just literally, it’s clearly about polygamy.

To my knowledge it’s not supposed to differ.

If you trust that the client (which is open source) is doing what it’s supposed to do, security-wise I don’t think there’s a difference between self-hosting and using Bitwarden’s service.

No, you don’t need to trust the VPS provider. The VaultaWarden password storage is encrypted, and the master password is never transmitted to the server. The passwords are decrypted only locally on your device.

I read it in my head in his voice.

For files I just use WebDAV that’s built in to Apache. It’s really not fancy, but does all I need.

I use RoundCube, I think it’s one of the oldest solutions out there, and is pretty good (and not ugly as of a few years ago).

My thoughts exactly 😂

That’s very unfortunate but hopefully you developed skills that will help you in your future career.
