I use KeePass (Keepass2Android, KeePassXC, OG KeePass, and KeePassium) for everything. Been using KeePass in general for 20-ish years.

Recently, I decided to export all of my passwords from Firefox, Chrome, and Edge, import the data into my KeePass database under their own folders, then delete everything from the browsers. That way I can move entries that weren’t already in the database to their respective locations in the database hierarchy, delete duplicates, and change insecure passwords.

The database is hosted on my phones (work and personal), laptop, gaming PC, and a server at home, all synced with Syncthing. My work laptop also has Portable KeePass that accesses the database via WebDAV to my server.

I do the same thing on my laptop and gaming PC. My only beef with KeePassXC is that they refuse to implement WebDAV, despite the OG KeePass having it. Otherwise it’s fantastic.

Misleading as fuck. The Timeline feature never went away - it’s just device-only.

Ah, this makes sense now. I was wondering why it hadn’t been updated in a while, that was my only hangup.

Tell them to suck it up and deal with it. ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

Ah, ok, I get the general idea now. UCCU uses this software, too (you said you worked for MX, which is based in Lehi… I also work in Lehi 😅), but I gotta be honest - I’m not a huge fan of the mobile app. It just feels like a PWA. But that might just be UCCU’s implementation, so, IDK.

Thanks for the explanation though!

The whole thing 😅 how do I know if my bank uses MX?

Can you elaborate on this some more?

I have several NFS shares that host multiple docker volumes. So yes.

There are root apps that can limit battery charge level. If you have an older phone that’s rootable, I would look into that.

The VM eats through the battery, that’s the only hangup I have with this. Otherwise that’s a fantastic idea.

Just remember the KISS principal: Keep It Simple, Stupid

Keep the NAS as a NAS, and I would honestly trim down everything else into a clustered hypervisor setup (like Proxmox) with dedicated VMs to run each stack. That way if you need to take a machine down for whatever reason, you can migrate its VMs/containers to another machine, with minimal downtime, so you can do whatever it is you need to do with said machine.

Full disclosure: this is what I do. I was in your shoes before.

Oh I’m always doing something with it, it’s basically my winter hobby haha. I’m currently building a “new” NAS out of an old HP Proliant G2 case (from like 2002) and 7th gen Intel hardware, to replace the current Mac mini/4-bay Sabrent DS-SC4B. Still gonna run OMV on the new NAS, because OMV is awesome; but the USB connection between the Mac and drive station is cumbersome and risky.

I used to do that, but I have a bad habit of over-tinkering with the underlying system. Having Proxmox as a base where I can spin up VMs and LXC containers to fuck with to my heart’s content is far more ideal in my situation. Plus, my entire cluster - NAS included - pulls 100-120 watts.

It’s best if a NAS remains as a dedicated NAS and nothing else; I would build a separate machine to tinker with, and share the appropriate folders on the NAS with whatever service(s) you’re running. That way, if you’re experimenting and fuck something up, it doesn’t take your data with it when it goes down.

Chest freezers are very efficient. Ours is usually full, so it stays nice and cold unless you leave it unplugged for like a week straight.

I am curious to see what the PC’s power usage looks like when I switch to Linux…

What is WAF?

Yeah, I never expect a financial ROI for hobbies; the ROI for that is nothing more than my own enjoyment.

Yeah, my power bill is pretty reasonable already, considering my large family plus all the electronics I run. I just like seeing what everything is doing as a matter of curiosity.

The bedrooms, including my entire master bedroom suite, each have one 15A circuit. No more. That’s how most duplex townhouses are. The lights are currently those damn CFL lights, so they aren’t exactly difficult to dim - CFLs almost do it on their own when they’re close to dying (which these ones are).

That, and it’s a rental house.
