I found this comment on what happened by dani-garcia, one of the main devs:

The short version is that around 8-ish years ago, Bitwarden changed the way the vault items were structured, and Vaultwarden added some backwards compatibility fields to ensure both old and new versions of the clients worked.

These backwards compatibility fields were supposed to be a temporary measure, but for at least the next three years the clients still required them, until we eventually forgot to keep track of them. At some point between 2021 and today, the clients stopped requiring these backwards compatibility fields, but Vaultwarden was still sending them.

This wasn’t a problem until Bitwarden decided to use the backwards compatibility fields in a completely different way, which caused the clients to crash.

I feel like they said private servers for “Minecraft” when they meant “Warcraft”. Not that I agree with them, but at least pirate wow servers make sense to be against.

It will take a long time and while it runs it will use a lot of resources so the server can be bogged down. It is also a dangerous time for a NAS, because if you have a drive down, and another drive dies, the whole pool can collapse. The process involves reading every bit on every drive, so it does put strain on everything.

Some people will go out of their way to buy drives from different manufacturing batches so if one batch has a problem, not all of their drives will fail.

The way striping works (at an eli5 level) is you have a bunch of drives and one is a check for everything else. So let’s say you have four 10tb drives. Three would be data and one would be the check, so you get 30tb of usable space.

In reality you don’t have a single drive working as a check, instead you spread the checks across all of the drives, if you map it out with “d” being data and “c” being check it looks like this: dddc ddcd dcdd cddd

This way each drive has the same number of checks on it, and also why we call it striping.

When you are running a server just to store files (a NAS) you generally set it up so multiple physical hard disks are joined together into an array so if one fails, none of the data is lost. You can replace a failed drive by taking it out and putting in a new working drive and then the system has to copy all of the data over from the other drives. This process can take many hours to run even with the 10-20 TB drive you get today, so doing the same thing with 140 TB drive would take days.

It still has problems. Mainly you need to get power out there and the heated exhaust water can mess with the ecosystem.

I remember there was talks about a floating data center in the ocean.

My son had to edit a video for a project in high school. I installed kdenlive for him and he had no problems figuring it out, and it did a great job.

I live in Seattle and those girls look like they are about to go to a club and not school to me. Granted in my area if I, as a man, wear a shirt with buttons on it to the office I feel like I am dressing up.

I have read that modern servers have np. Bots you can add so you can do dungeons and stuff. I haven’t tried myself. Would love to find a guide on how to set up a Linux host.

I would look into Tailscale based on your responses here. I don’t know what your use case is exactly but you set TS up on your server and then again on your phone/laptop and you can connect them through the vpn directly. No extra exposed ports or making a domain or whatnot.

If you want other people to access the server they will need to make a TS account and you can authorize them.

I remember being thrilled with a 20 meg scsi hard drive I got as a kid.

I mean that is already a problem, if you ask a question you have to be ready for the answer to be a mismatch of version conflicts.

But that is ok. ChatGPT is a tool that can either help you or hurt you. I like to think of it like a power hammer. If you are doing a roofing job, it can help you get things done faster compared to a manual hammer, but you still need to know how to build a roof to get started.

ChatGPT is great at helping you organize your thoughts or finding an answer to some error message buried in some log file, but you still need to know what questions to ask and you need to be ready for it to give you a stupid answer and how to get around that.

I recently switched my instance from gitea to forgejo because everyone said to do it and it was easy to do.

The option to run one cable to the monitor, or reversely charge your laptop with one docking cable.

Maybe you could use this to daisy chain monitors and power them all.

I understand how the public key encryption works when you are messaging person to person. Does anyone know how it works with group chats?

I forget a password I created yesterday but I remember that 7 digit number as if my life depended on it.

It can be forked by anyone, but what is already out there will always be there.

And how does this hurt all of us who use it for open source projects?

In Spaceage you can.
