   I created `prs` which solves a lot of painpoints I had with pass and other clients. It is compatible with pass and uses the very same store. https://github.com/timvisee/prs

   Awesome work! At Qdrant we do this at scale. Store billions of vectors in a cluster of any size. Also in Rust which turned out to be an amazing choice, and fully open source. It uses various features to keep things performant, such as vecto

   That's weird! A force refresh (CTRL+F5) doesn't work?

   That MDN page has a lot of noise and is not straight to the point. I guess that may be a side effect of JS though.

   Firefox's QuantumBar is amazing stuff! One of the main features why I'm sticking with the browser. Makes it super comfy. Some time back I wrote on it as well, along with some extra goodies: https://timvisee.com/blo

   I use container tabs in Firefox to mitigate this. I have a "Garbage" container which unauthenticated YouTube. When I search something that I suspect will affect my feed in a bad way, I'll open it up in the container. The same

    Not fun! Using a custom ROM? I'm running LineageOS with minimal Google Apps.

    I still use my OnePlus 5 which is now (almost) 5 years old! It has 8GB of memory with Android 13 and a custom ROM. It's still faster than some phones that are released today. I agree though that some apps are extremely resource intensi

    I believe iCloud uses Google's cloud as storage backend.

    This is exactly what I meant, and isn't something "accidental".

    This is the same browser that did the opposite before: injecting their own referral parameter in links.

    The article mentions secur{e,ity} 8 times. Seems excessive. This will be secure for sure! /s

    Containers are fantastic! Must have when developing/testing webapps with different user accounts, using a few containers. Miles better than juggling with other browsers or incognito mode.

    The difference is that you'd also have to own the password store, rather than having to know about the hashing algorithm (which is open).

    No! This is bad from a security perspective based on entropy. Passwords generated here still have the exact same entropy as the input secret. In fact, you might even decrease entropy based on the length selected. Entering a website, usernam

    Thanks for mentioning prs [1], dev here! :) Yeah it definitely meets those requirements, being written in Rust, supporting pass, TOTP, Tombs amongst other things out of the box. Though its CLI is slightly different than classic pass. That i

    I experience the same. I mostly stopped with web development because of this, and get a lot more satisfaction out of static pages, because it is so simple (and fast!).
