I heard about it on Behind the Bastards iirc. Absolutely horrifying, like, in addition to the abuse of minors: some sort of breeding kink, he envisioned having a mansion full of women carrying his babies to term.

The deeper you go with this the worse it gets - both about Epstein himself and how many people were in on it.

And floods, apparently. Can’t find it anymore, but there’s a pic where a Waymo got stuck in a flooded street right under a sign saying “don’t use when flooded”.

But of course the inhuman aspect is worse.

I don’t think Bitwarden is a terrible choice. That said, I share the author’s concerns in general.

How much does a non-selfhosted password manager cost? Weigh that against the cost of remote-mountable server storage, you can simply put your database there.
(Both costs can be 0 btw)

Marginalia provides one of the few complete alternative search engines, i.e. not based on Google/Bing search results, btw.

The outward appearance might not be your style, but they make good points, provide facts to support them and most importantly, they remain polite about it.

I personally think the article is worth reading, at least until just before the last chapter, in which the author outlines their own convoluted ideas. And that’s where such things belong: in the last chapter.

only to settle on another SaaS

Do you mean Vaultwarden? AFAICS they do not “settle” on it, but they do argue that it is much lighter in almost every respect. And since it is Bitwarden compatible the comparison is valid.

Frankly, I think most people just got salty because of the javascript overlay which I found pretty funny; a mild prank and a good demonstration of the power of javascript.

What’s with the downvotes? The article makes good points, and brings them across politely:

• it’s a $100M for-profit company
• it’s heavy (compared to Vaultwarden, a Bitwarden compatible Rust rewrite)
• its code base requires proprietary MS libraries and other esoteric (seen from the POV of a *nix user) stuff. I might have summarized this one badly, just read the chapter, it’s not long.

My guess is people are salty because

• they use Bitwarden and don’t like to see it criticized
• they got upset by the javascript overlay which is hilarious imo. I certainly got rick-rolled for a hot second.

FWIW, I don’t serve my password database on the www at all. It sits on my own server and I can access it with all my devices, but the software to do that is local only.

Within political markets, those related to military or defence actions show the clearest signs of widespread information asymmetries.

Damn. The implications.

I mean, we knew this already but it’s still good to get some proper research on it.

It’s virtue signaling

So, fewer workers, more energy consumption, less secure end results - to help beta test Skynet and accelerate the end of the world.
