Printing printers.
Like the other commenter said, typically websites are less locked down.
It’s simpler to sandbox the browser and prevent unauthorized software from running than to block out most of the Internet and deal with complaints all day about the web restrictions
I also use aYubiKey in VaultWarden but the key is not used to generate the encryption keys, only the master password is, so you don’t get that added security and benefit of the encryption keys rotating every time you save the DB.
You sure can.
But that’s not perfect.
Often businesses will lock down their computers to prevent unauthorized software from running at all, not just installing.
Ok that makes more sense lol
Ah, I couldn’t find that option.
I can add custom fields to an entry but I can’t designate them as “protected”
Of course I also thought at first that you couldn’t attach files but I guess you can, they just didn’t seem to transfer over from my KeePass DB
I’ve had some trouble with NextCloud as well. For me it just feels sluggish and bloated.
Someone in another thread here said “NextCloud can do everything, but it doesn’t do anything particularly well” and that seems to mirror my experience with it for the most part.
Of all the self-hosted containers I’ve set up NextCloud gave me the most trouble
I’m using randomly generated 64-character passwords with upper/lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols.
I prefer not to manually enter them every time.
Also someone could find and photograph your notepad and then all your passwords are compromised in one go.
and there even is a „no phoning home“ version that strictly runs locally.
Shouldn’t that be all the versions?
Why would a password manager app that uses a local database need to phone home?
I have both set up right now.
Things I like better about KeePass:
KeePass doesn’t use the cloud, you don’t have to worry about the server getting compromised or going down because there’s nothing public-facing to hack. You always know where your password database is.
KeePass lets you encrypt the database with not only the master password but also using the challenge-response from a YubiKey. That means every time you save your DB the encryption key is rotated and the DB is actually encrypted by two authentication factors.
While both can add custom fields to an entry, I like that KeePass has the option to set fields as protected so their contents are hidden like the passwords.
Things I like better about VaultWarden:
Convenience.
You can log in to your VaultWarden account on any device from the browser. KeePass requires some software to access the DB.
The VaultWarden companion software is just better. It just does autofill better. KeePassXC/DX work well but just not as well as the BitWarden software.
Other thoughts:
Syncing passwords between devices with KeePass requires 3rd party software like SyncThing. If you break/lose/etc your VaultWarden server you could lose all your passwords with it.
Always make/test backups.
Yeah this is probably my biggest.
Device which things can be hosted on a local server and which are best on a vps
If anyone wants to see your shit they can install something on your telephone pole that can supercede a VPN anyway.
False.
My WireGuard VPN uses pre-verified encryption keys and all data between the nodes is encrypted with them.
Nothing (whether put there by the cell carrier, public wifi provider, or some gang member who climbed the telephone pole) can decrypt that communication except the devices which already have the keys.
I’m not sure what makes you think VPN security is moot, but you are misinformed.
Using a VPN is always more secure than not using one, particularly if you control the server on the other end.
The only time a VPN wouldn’t help is if your device itself is compromised at which point you have other problems than a VPN anyway
Check out tailscale (or headscale)
It lets you connect those devices without necessarily sending all data through your home network when you are remote. (Though that is an option along with many other great features like ssh authentication)
It also uses WireGuard for the backend which is more secure and efficient than openvpn.
…at several vendors, this was just the first one I pulled up.
You’re looking at a month or so wait for delivery at the most if you order now.
Yesterday they still had first batch available so maybe other vendors still do too.
I don’t think the pi5 will suffer the same availability issues the pi4 has
That’s quite an understatement.
It has:
There’s plenty of stuff I would have liked to see that didn’t make it, but there definitely a lot more to it than an RTC and a power button. For $60 this is not a bad SBC at all.
I would have liked to see normal HDMI connectors, 2.5G Ethernet with PoE included, and higher RAM options.
More PCIe lanes would have been nice too but probably unlikely given the price point
Kopia is my favorite by far!
It’s super fast and has tons of great features including cutting-edge encryption and several compression options.
It has a GUI and is cross-platform.
It can do both cloud and local/network backups.
That includes locally mounted disks, SFTP, rsync, or any network share/etc accessible from your machine as well as many cloud options.
The de-duplication stuff is also killer. If you upload the same file (or chunk of data) in different folders or even from different systems it will map them to the same backup storage potentially saving you a ton of storage space.
It also uses a rolling hash system so if you modify just a handful of megabytes from a 25GB file many times, only the megabytes of changes will need to be backed up to store the version history. You do not need to store 25GB every time you modify that file.
There’s a ton of other goodies as well!
And it’s all FOSS!
I use it to backup to an external hard drive, a NAS, and to Amazon S3. You can configure multiple repositories like that and have them all run at the same time (subject to their individual scheduling policies of course)
Yeah this is one of my pretty peeves.
When I ask you for the logs I don’t mean cut out the one or two lines you might think are relevant.
Please provide the entire log file unless instructed otherwise.
I have no reason to believe the bits OP removed were relevant. In fact it sounds as though none of it was. But that’s not always the case and support people or the actual developers are just as capable of using the search function in a text editor to locate the relevant parts of a log file as anyone else is.
Please provide the entire log, this “helping” concept causes now issues than it solves, trust.
Haha nope not KDE-related afaik!
Just a great FOSS project.
Did I mention it’s also ridiculously fast?
It quite noticeably out-performs any other solution I’ve tried.
I really love Kopia.
I mostly use it for cloud backups but it also works great for local/network storage as well.
It’s really fast and efficient, supports cutting edge encryption and compression algorithms and the de-duplication and file-splitting features will let you generate frequent snapshots while costing you minimal storage.
Snapshots are also effortless to mount and it even supports error correction to protect against bit-flipping and other long-term storage risks.
It’s also cross-platform and FOSS.
De-duplication prevents duplicate bits of data from being stored twice. Even if they are different file names or even synced from different systems.
The rolling hash/file-splitting means if you modify a 25GB file and only change a couple MB then only the changed couple MB will need to be stored. This means you can spend a month modifying small parts of a massive file thousands of times and avoid storing a new 25GB file thousands of times to archive those changes.
Oooh thank you!
Can’t believe I missed that
