@marcoarment up, and whilst not a huge for a year, it's not something I can say I support - as it seems to be only targeting their family plans (we didn't get an email for our team account for @bloominbeads)
They're VC funded now, not some tiny indie dev anymore. Honestly, I'm disappointed, plus the 'AI naming' thing.
@jsbilsbrough @marcoarment @bloominbeads Time to find an exit. It starts there and the goes to everything. VC funding. The end of fun

@marcoarment You’re lucky.
Bitwarden increased the price by 100%!
From 10 to 20.
A year.@pax0707 @marcoarment their language was even more passive, the email I received simply had the subject "Your Bitwarden Premium renewal is updating", so I almost didn't notice the price increase... the second sentence was "The price is updating to $1.65/month, billed annually". Though it added that "As an existing Bitwarden customer, you will receive a one-time 25% loyalty discount for this year's renewal".
$20/yr seems a bit steep just for U2F key support. $10/yr felt worth it.

@marcoarment I recommend Bitwarden, and you can host your own using Vaultwarden.
@scottag @marcoarment I just learned about Vaultwarden this afternoon (guess why!). Does it look like a good idea to run on a local Raspberry Pi 5 (running NextCloud)?

@buck @marcoarment you mean the Apple that pushes F1 movie ads to your wallet?
@danieldk @marcoarment That's the one! 😕

@axby @pax0707 @marcoarment If you only use Bitwarden for that feature, yes, that seems like a steep price hike *. A big notepad is cheap, and it might serve you better if you have no interrest in the more advanced bells and features you get with a basic subscription.
Or you could use Keepass or Lastpass. They’d probably pay people to sign up these days.*I ,apart from using it, have no affiliation with Bitwarden in any way.

"Updating", huh? What a word choice. I wonder in which direction it's updating!
@marcoarment I can understand that wording for services that are actually making structural changes. For instance a hosting provider charging by minutes instead of bandwidth.
But just raising the price? Nah.

@Izng @pax0707 @marcoarment I forgot about emergency and shared access, I do appreciate those somewhat. But I’d rather store my TOTP secrets separately (I actually use Keepass for that). Are there any other great premium features I’m missing?
Hmm and it looks like U2F key support is included in the free version now, I don’t think it was 2 years ago.
I don’t want to cancel because Bitwarden has been great and I want it to survive, but it seems like the free version would meet all my needs.

@odin @rickscully @marcoarment Bitwarden is a thing. And their free plan is enough for most
@davidbcohen @rickscully @marcoarment My 1Password plan doesn’t renew until this fall, so I plan to look at other options before then

@marcoarment I “updated” my 1Password price to zero. Thanks Apple Passwords!

@axby @pax0707 @marcoarment My fav feature is the ability to on the generate “masked email addresses” using Fastmails api. Much like on iCloud, but on better mail servers.

@Izng @pax0707 @marcoarment ah, I guess I've never even looked into that because I pay for a domain name (slightly cheaper than Bitwarden premium after the price "update"), so I can get anything@{my domain} forwarded to my main email inbox.
It is fun to sign up for services using {service name}@{my domain name} as the email, though it can get awkward when dealing with a real person who wants to confirm your email address.
I have yet to catch any spam from these aliases, though.

@marcoarment I don't mind the price increase but the "AI name suggestions" thing combined with the admission that they're vibe-coding the app at this point might push me over the edge to just doing apple's Passwords everywhere. At least "Apple Intelligence" has an off switch.

@marcoarment well. Don’t leave us hanging!

@marcoarment I had the same thought

@marcoarment I’d be happy to pay it if it meant the Safari plug in unlocked properly more often than 20% of the time.

@marcoarment Holy crap. I haven’t received any email, but I’m subscribed through Apple (with a v7 migration discount they offered a couple years ago), so I checked my subscription status… +125% increase in my case/currency.
Thanks for the heads up, now I have a couple months to evaluate alternatives!

Marissa Nadler - Strangers (2016)
Sono passati due anni da “July” l’intensa e tempestosa estate disperata di Marissa Nadler. In questi ventiquattro mesi molto è cambiato nella vita musicale e personale della cantautrice americana. Un matrimonio, con relativa tremarella e infiniti ripensamenti. La rinnovata, ritrovata sobrietà. Dopo essersi messa alla prova... https://noblogo.org/available/marissa-nadler-strangers-2016

La narrativa del Black Mirror agentico
Un distopico e virale saggio di una società di ricerca finanziaria immagina un'America del 2028 devastata dall'AI: iper-produttività, intermediazione azzerata, distruzione dei lavori da colletti bianchi. Una narrativa di paure antiche per mercati con vertigini

24 febbraio 2022, quattro anni fa. Il leader russo Putin ordina l’inizio delle operazioni militari in Ucraina e segna una brusca escalation del conflitto russo-ucraino che in realtà è in corso dal lontano 2014.

L’impronta del vittimismo bianco nella politica di Trump in Africa
@news
La politica degli Stati Uniti di Donald Trump nei confronti del continente africano è stata segnata, in questo primo anno di presidenza, da una sostanziale continuità col primo mandato. Al governo americano, oggi, l’Africa sembra interessare relativamente, e più per le idee, le immagini

Learned that Ken Boak has died. A nice man who created the Nanode (self-assembly Arduino-like), was super into retro and minimalist computing, and who indirectly re-ignited my interest in LEGO. Here’s a blog post that mentions him and Nanode, from way back in 2012. https://andypiper.co.uk/2012/01/16/makers-creativity-learning-lego-ftw/
