I would love to.

Please build trains or stop blaming me.

My guy, the line is a status symbol one earn by paying bonuses up front or letting their company pay.

There is no greater good here. Line cutters aren't somehow immoral.

If everyone boarded in logical patterns of staggered odd window even window odd middle even middle odd aisle even aisle boarding, with no pairs or groups allowed, you'd be on to something.

But it falls apart the moment you look at how it's actually done. Status and rewards, and seat class, then whatever is left. Cutting in line because you didn't spring for an $80 seat upgrade that amounts to "better" padding in the headrest and 1 extra inch in your legroom is insane.

An online database is still a file ultimately. A SQL or other DB file stored in a webserver, accessed through a web interface.

Vaultwarden, etc, are the same, only the database file is less directly visible IMO. Keepass IMO is simple. The DB in a bespoke format, stored outside the application.

You could put the vault in system32 and name it "trustedinstaller.log", and if someone saw you had keepass they wouldn't even know where your vault is.

Given the number of well documented breaches of online password vaults, I would much rather do a private device to device sync via syncthing and keep it out of webservers.

Syncthing is encrypted transfers.

The database is encrypted.

And you can set it to not use relays for data, only matchmaking between your own devices.

So it's an encrypted file, encrypted again, and sent directly from an IP you own to an IP you own.

F-Droid syncthing-fork is still actively developed and had a patch in the last few weeks.

So hopefully this isn't the end.

Keepass vault synced over syncthing.

I keep not regretting it.

He defines that as wanting to be in control of the project so long as he has the passion to work on it solo. But it's somewhat implied that if he had to let it go, he may open source his work. I can understand that. DrO was one of the primary and most prolific Winamp plugin devs back in it's heyday as well. So if you ever used Winamp itself (closed source) you have already trusted his code on much more vulnerable OSes, imo.

I feel like he's earned the limited trust this requires.

Kairosoft titles are typically $5 to $7 dollars. Tons of Dev and Tycoon style business builder titles. Most are fantastic.

The speculation is wrong.

If your hobby is making Paper MachΓ© Owls, and one day Hobby Lobby calls you and threatens to sue you in criminal court for millions, or you can silently stop your hobby?

Unless you have millions to burn, you give up your hobby, because it's not worth ruining your life over.

Well, given the very unorthodox nature of it as it is today, I don't know that Dr0 can legally open source it until he's finished replacing literally all legacy functions with new code, even if they wanted to. But I can understand your position.

Replacing native Winamp code with modern code with frequent updates by one of the most prolific classic Winamp developers.

It's fantastic.
