I've been off social media for a while because I've been building. Private stuff, so I won't post about it on #nostr. But I have to #AskNostr one thing... What species bird is Big Bird? Yellow, small wings, clearly an i eater...

I have gotten complaints about needing a "password reset" (as in, the users password to get into Vaultwarden itself), but only from fellow sysadmins who have to write down all the collections they have access to, delete their entire account, reinvite them with those same permissions, wait for them to accept the invite and then confirm their account. We only use it for organizational passwords, so no data is lost, but it's still a cumbersome process.

I agree that there should be nostr clients which support passkeys. At the same time, my experience has shown me that non-technical people are fine with usinf Vaultwarden and most of them started to really like it after they get a browser add-on. Would they personally run a Vaultwarden server? Absolutely not. But if it's hosted for them, it seems to strike a good compromise.

Yeah, that's why I tested a aexond board. It's unlikely that two of them would both bad in the exact same way. I bought another unit from a different vendor and we'll see if that works on a battery.

Wow, what a day! One server couldn't write EFI vars because it ran out of space. Another server randomly had a BIOS go so bad, it couldn't even get boot to where I could get to the BIOS menus. This was 25% of my storage cluster. A critical 0-day in GitLab (unauthenticated) An auth bypass in ceph that requires not only key rotation, but changing the authentication algorithm because the vuln is a design flaw, not an implementation issue. Everything is back online and secured now, but damn, that was a 💩 storm.

It's a NiceTOTP and the board is a nice!nano (nRF52). Specs say the board is expecting 3.7V from the battery. Battery voltage is good. Don't get 3.3V on the CPU power rail woth the battery. I need to follow the traces and see where it is supposed to go and how far it gets. I just had to take a break because I was getting frustrated the other day.

Do what you got to do, but please don't make fake product images. I want to see what I'm actually getting when I shop, not an artist's interpretation of what that product might look like.

It works over USB power, but not with a battery. I tried with a bare Nice!nano and LiPo battery, with nothing else soldered on, and was able to reproduce the issue. It's behaving as if the battery lines don't connect to the rest of the board. Seems unlikely that I have two defective boards. I checked the polarity so many times, it's maddening. I don't get it. Nobody on the internet seems to have ever run into this either. I can't even.

This is the sketchiest prototype I have ever soldered together. #electronics #diy

Goodbye A/I https://sabot.media/post/ai-shuts-down I'd never heard of them before, but it does seem concerning.

Color code your ethernet cables based on which network they're carrying. E.g., blue = LAN, black = DMZ, etc.

Remember, if someone didn't buy those pizzas all those years ago, bitcoin wouldn't have a monetary value. Using it is what makes it useful. But, yeah, Steak 'n' Shake is greaseball food I still enjoy it from time to time none-the-less.

Straight wins the game. I'm going to cheat a lil' and have it on the rocks
