• Ask HN: Why do people use Password Managers?

  And the best part is there are solutions already that do this: https://keepass.info/ Does it work on Android or iOS? - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Why do people use Password Managers?

  The key difference here being that this is two way hashing so passwords can be decrypted. In reality, there are a lot of attack vectors like MITM, event logging or sometimes straight up storing data in plaintext. Through these hackers can generally get passwords of all users of these services. So, why don't people use local password managers? Just a txt file encrypted with "master password" should be pretty... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Google-hosted malvertising leads to fake Keepass site that looks genuine

  When you're at a point where you're relying on a display name to make security-critical decisions, you've already lost. Character substitutions like ķeepass or ƙeepass or keypass are at least possible to spot if you know the name of the product, but not the full URL. But there are many ways to create lookalike domains that don't change the product name: https://keepass.org https://keepass.net https://keepass.info... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Google announces passwordless by default: Make the switch to passkeys

  > People love to hate on passwords but the reality is that for many circumstances (threat models) they are the best compromise. You can make them more than strong enough (take 32+ bytes out of /dev/random and encode however you like, nobody will ever brute force that in this universe) and various passwords managers solve the problem of re-use (never reuse a password). > And it comes with the benefit that you... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• If you cannot download any books, then you’re on one of the scam sites

  If you have used this combo at many sites (which is of course not recommended) then download one of the available free Password Managers like Keepass, Bitwarden, Lastpass or any others you can find with a Google Search. Source: 8 months ago

• Is ultracopier still the very best in terms of open source alternative file copying/merging tool ?

  I used robocopy on a slow network to transfer many gigabyte of data; properly configured with retries and everything worked great. Don't know about your merge needs, so take a look into it and do some tests before actually running it. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Is copying the best way to transfer large amounts of files?

  If you're copying a ton of files that vary in size, using a command prompt robocopy with the multi-thread parameter can make it so you are copying multiple files simultaneously and max out the bandwidth of whatever connection you're using (usb, SATA, ethernet, etc). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Game data to new PC

  This would probably work well. Oblivion mod managers edit load order by modifying dates on the files, and I'm not sure if dragging-and-dropping would keep that info. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Migrating file servers - Robocopy syntax question

  Yes, /mir also deletes files and directories that have been deleted from the source. Here's a list of the switches. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Robocopy Hell - Copy data without NTFS permissions

  My friend you helped me big time. I was able to test more and the U flag on /COPY was the culprit here. Which isn't a huge deal for me so using /COPY:DAT worked great. Turns out this is the default switching for /COPY anyway according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/robocopy. Source: almost 2 years ago
