Keepass is exactly that. Basically all the client side parts, and the database is a single encrypted file that you can sync however you want.

Exactly. LLMs don't understand semantically what the data means, it's just how often some words appear close to others.

Of course this is oversimplified, but that's the main idea.

This!! Wendell is the best! He actually started designing his own KVMs because the ones on the market didn't have all the functionalities/support.

The ones that monitor torrent to sue people are lawyer firms, not the government.

Public transit in NY moves literally millions of people per day, so the chances are still pretty low.

My bank's app has way less functionality than the web version, but it's used as a second factor to auth some operations, so I have to use both.

That was my first thought. Since when boycotting (aka not choosing) something is illegal?

Maybe find a middle ground, like sharing the hosted service with just one or two persons, like a close friend, family member, etc. Could be someone you live with or that you can give VPN access to your network. That way is more private and mainly for your self, but also has some sense of doing it for others to motivate you.

There was no version control at all. The company that provided the software was really shady, and the implementation was so bad that the (only) developer was there full time fixing the code and data directly in production when the users had any issue (which was several times a day).

I was hired to implement a CRM for an insurance company to replace their current system.

Of course no documentation or functional requirements where provided, so part of the task was to reverse engineer the current CRM.

After a couple of hours trying to find some type of backend code on the server, I discovered the bizarre truth: every bit of business logic was implemented in Stored Procedures and Triggers on a MSSQL database. There were no frontend code either on the server, users have some ActiveX controls installed locally that accessed the DB.

Same here. Now my router/AP does it automatically.
