I can still connect via Tor on Phoenix.

Good morning ✌️🧑

Vaultwarden using docker. The hardest thing is setting up https, but it mostly just works out of the box with BitWarden apps. You also need to make sure you keep backups of the data folder.

Now I have it running as a tailscale service, which is the easiest solution to the https problem.

Security > Privacy

Be unassailable in plain sight.

Happy Rest nostr:npub16as8gepztj9tvyx6n9y4h3cv3gaytgpl3g32jhcxlj6mcss72uaqjwg2tf dont forget that red string as a way point for your Lucid dreaming bro.

✌️

Man, I didn't recognize you for a bit there πŸ˜‚

Good night ✌️🧑

I've been converting some JavaScript math into Rust math and I gotta say, I like Rust math a lot better. Hopefully as WebAssembly, it'll be a lot faster too.

I proved and coded the math a long time ago though, and I'm glad I wrote extensive tests for every little thing because I don't know how any of this shit works. It just does.

It's a social platform for artists, photographers, writers, etc. to post their work. It's been around forever. My sister started her career there by doing commissions for people.

Nowadays there are other places people post their art too like ArtStation and Pixiv.

My problem with it is simply to do with what I said. If I want privacy, I'm not sending data about my transactions to everyone on the network, no matter how anonymous it is. Metadata fingerprinting will eventually kill your privacy.

I'd rather have the guarantee of a payment on Bitcoin no matter who knows about it than the risk of Monero eventually dying because it traded off too much security and decentralization for base layer privacy.

It's a matter of my time preference in the end. Monero is catering to a group of people who want higher layer functionality now and is making trade-offs to do it. I don't want those trade-offs, so I'm willing to wait for privacy tools to be built on Bitcoin, which has the strongest base layer. Perfectly good privacy tools and techniques existed before Bitcoin, so it's not impossible to remain anonymous if you absolutely need to.

Privacy has to exist where no one can see what you're doing. Transactions done on-chain have universal visibility, so naturally, transactions done off-chain will have limited visibility, and therefore more privacy.

The general idea is to construct an on-chain transactions such that many transactions compressed into it. Side chains and lightning work on this principle.

Privacy doesn't always have to be trustless. You can gain privacy by getting someone else to do transactions on your behalf. Exchanges and eCash mints work on this principle. The lightning network provides a trustless way to get others to transact on your behalf too: if you send a payment through an intermediate node, you can gain a bit of privacy.
