Usually a lurker.Maybe I should've just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment...

If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.

  • If my Do-It-All-Room counts:

    (Greetings from my breakfast table lol.)

    Assuming I had an apartment with 2-3 rooms (meaning a hobby and/or living room + bedroom) I would probably only put one in the bedroom as a spare TV.But I would not buy a new one just to watch more screens.

  • The Jellyfin has an official Telegram channel which I use as the newsletter.Besides that, the selfh.st newsletter usually highlights the more popular projects if such an issue arises.

  • Civ6Lets get to war

  • Sweated before or was at work: Evening nightNeed to be extra fresh/clean: Morning shower

  • The neon green in Germany is usually anything.We have those as high vis vests for car issues.But we also have yellow and orange

  • The world doesnt only exist within the US timezone ;)

  • They could use it to provide energy for the residents in closer proximity to it (in winter)That's what some are already doing.In Germany I heard about an indoor swimming pool using datacenter heat energy to heat their pools.

  • Have seen the Benn Jordan video?

  • But un a radius of 6 mi? That sounds a bit high.More close to a city with lots of concrete to store the heat.

  • Are you bwhind a cg-nat? That might explain why they might claim that

  • Way higher volume of politic related posts.Also reduced post volume on other topics

  • Two reasons (personal lore. No proof) why they arent doing it as much:

    1. Reputation (high failings = Low sales volume, higher returns, decreased reputation)
    2. Higher vlume of returns. They arent cheap.And if they say "free return" they just charged you and every other order 20 cents more to compensate for the 10 returning packages of 100 shipments.Nothings free.
  • Ey Eve, bet you are too scared to try this apple.

  • Great. Replace partial closed source with closed source.

    Task failed successfully

  • The concert sure was a blast :DAmd the tree was blooming atm

    Edit: too bad you asked this one week too early.I was about to visit the construction site for Stuttgart 21. The infamous construction site for our train main station.

  • What is it with the US and doing landmarks in ridiculous sizes?Quite funny but also weird

  • Recently: A tree :)

    Recently-ish: Carpenter Brut concert in Stuttgart, Germany

  • Natural disaster -> no longer can access everything you have online

    Meant as a negative to cloud vaults?

    In that case: Bitwarden (as an example) can work offline and records can be exported from it.

  • You need to turn down your suspicions.Can't ask questions without drawing the wrath of some users here...

    Anyway:I thought about it but in the end went with Bitwarden just because it's convenient and didnt feel like entering the security minefield.Same was for pictures (kept them on my PC and that was backed up to another drive) and E-Mail.As my gear improved I started to use Immich.E-Mail is still outsourced as I can't and don't want to deal with getting put on spam-lists and having to deal with getting of of it (had the pleasure of getting my domain already marked by google safe browsing).

    The "gotcha" about conflicting (as you put it and trying to infer further bad faith conversations) was more about edge cases biting you in the ass.Not fun having to search accounts if you expect them to be securely saved in the vault but not being there.

    Anyway, the point of my question was to understand why people use a cloud service for this when it can be easily done (and be safer) than relying on a 3rd party cloud. From what I can tell it's "convenience".

    That's mine and being under the assumption a corp that is specializing and programming a security product is probably better at it than me.And so far the behavior from Bitwarden after being audited and their current breach-history gives me enough faith for now.

    They had some oof-moments like master-password are used to encrypt the vault and weak encryption protocols with weak encryption parameters on topBut they werent enough to start a transition elsewhere.
