Dyskolos

And what is it with my attitude? To have a strong opinion?

I remember the times where we didn’t have a tiny computer with us all day to be reachable. And if I’d be lonely because i don’t give a rats ass about WA, fb and the likes, that’d be indeed lonely but not due to that

I use both. Windows for the domain, backup, Video-surveillance, emby and some other critical things, and linux for proxmox and a lot of diverse vms. Mainly ubuntu lts.

It’s not a religous thing, it’s a pragmatic one. Best tool for the job

This is sadly the exact reason it will stay like this. People can’t reach me because i don’t use WhatsApp? Well bad luck. Use a better app or just don’t. I can’t reach them because they only use WA? What a bummer but so be it.

As long as people install WhatsCrapp because some distant aunt still uses it for the xmas-greetings, it will continue to be #1.

I dunno where you got that shit, but i never suggested to use a file or whatever. I’m keepassxc-user.

That is actually a good idea. I’m not using one rn as i only manually transfer it. Might be worth considering. Thanks

I don’t know. You wouldn’t really need it, if you’re concerned. If you’re fine you can just C&P or even let keepassxc use it’s auto-type. So no addon needed. It’s just more comfortable. And you can never have security AND comfort. Security is absolutely always uncomfortable.

Even IF there was a quantum-safe-cryptography, doesn’t change the fact, that your most private stuff is in a cloud and you have absolutely no idea what the future might bring. And if i have anything in the past decades in the IT, then it’s that there is always a past-past-something.

One can’t hack into where there is no path into :-) Also, whatever you COULD do in the future, a version of your passes where you didn’t do it, already was in the cloud. It’s not like you delete a thing there and it’s totally gone forever.

Yes. The easiest/most reliable is syncthing. Yet there’s the online-component which is inherently vulnerable. Depends on how paranoid you are.

Encryption won’t last forever. The moment Quantum-computing will be a thing, all current encryption will be pointless. Depends on your level of paranoia and planning for the future 😁

With keepasscx YOU have the password-file. Period. You know what’s been done with it: Nothing, as it doesn’t phone home except update-checks. Which you can also disable.

With the browser-addon you’ll get the same result but with control.

Don’t. It’s not in your hand is the simple reason.

My advice is keepassxc. Got a ff-addon that does basically the same. But you have your password-file under your control. And do backups!

Didn’t know Mexico was as backwards as the US :( I guess my view of Mexico was too romantic and to be scratched off my bucket-list. I’m sorry man :(

i’ve had the joy of experiencing my life partner deported

him?

Depends… We’re all interconnected on some level. But i don’t care anymore.

I’m truly sorry to hear that random Internet stranger. Why don’t you follow him if i might ask?

I don’t

This. Still one of the best.

Sorry, but religion has nothing to do with beliefs. Why do people always mix those? There’s also a difference between stealing for hunger and joining a drug cartel. You join a religion and take over their “beliefs”.

Religion is for the mentally handicapped who can’t think for themselves but need a group who tells them what to think. So they feel “connected”.

Besides that intermixing of terms, you’re not wrong. Have a belief. We all believe something, even if it’s nothing. I even love talking about people’s beliefs. As long as they’re in no cult (or religion), as i don’t want to interact with those. It’s like talking with a plant.
