This isn't even the first time an iPhone has had this exact issue.

My usecase required a GUI. I was trying to have a mini PC connected to my TV to watch live sports games in a web browser (pirated streams). I was getting micro stutters with a raspberry pi, which made sports unwatchable.

Because they shouldn't be in a server room. There are extremely expensive, very sensitive components in there. You can damage millions of dollars worth of equipment if you don't know what you're doing.

Oh, got it. That makes sense. Though if I remember correctly, Bitwarden makes a local copy for you, so even if your device doesn't have internet or your backend is down, you should still be able to enter your passwords, just not create new passwords or sync new passwords from other devices.

I have only been using Vaultwarden/Bitwarden for a short time, but I haven't had any issues thus far. My house is pretty resistant to power outages (solar + 12 hour battery backup for whole house with no sun), but if something happened with my ISP, obviously there's nothing I could do. I haven't tested that case yet. I probably should, though.

Option 3 sounds amazing because it gives you the control of option 1 with the ease of option 2. But… unless you’re the kind of person that enjoys hosting their own email server you really don’t want this option. Fun in theory but not so much when you realize you now have a 3rd job.

I currently host Vaultwarden and use the Bitwarden Android app and browser plugin. What does this have to do with a mail server? I don't host a mail server and it works fine for me (tried to host a mail server, but got blocked by ISP and would need a business account to request them to unblock it, which costs double what I currently pay for the same speeds).

I wish you told me this two years ago before I bought one. It was just too underpowered to work for my use case. I was expecting like the power of a low/mid range smartphone.

It was 10x more expensive, but I got a steam deck for my usecase, which involved real time video decode for live streams of sports games. Raspberry Pi kept having micro stutters that made watching sports impossible.

The music anime was called Given. I highly recommend the first season, but they followed it up with a movie that I didn't like at all.

That's likely exactly what it was.

My guess is that they just don't care to spend the time on it when the majority of people wouldn't even notice. But of course those of us that would notice would really appreciate it.

As a guitar player, it equally irritates me when the person "playing" the guitar has clearly never touched a guitar in their life. Similarly, when an actor is actually playing it, I really appreciate it.

Off topic, but I once walked in while my wife was watching some anime where the guitars were all extremely accurate, like down to what tuning pegs they would have had for the era the guitars were from. They must have motion captured all of the guitar playing from when they recorded the music, or at least took video of their hands, because they animated it perfectly. Down to the tapping parts and everything. It was jaw dropping. I made her start the whole show over from episode one so I could watch it.

I was watching a show recently where someone was writing code, and it was actually C++ code. I actually did the exact pose in the meme.

Of course, he was writing it inhumanly fast, and he always seemed to be writing the start of a new file. But I liked that it was actually code and not just The Matrix-style jibberish

I own a raspberry pi 4. Every time I try to use it, I spend half my time trying to fix the stuttery/non responsive UI by fucking with the compistor and such. And then I give up.

I eventually got a new gaming PC and turned my old one into a Linux server, and haven't really touched my Raspberry Pi since.

That's exactly what this thread is about. When companies don't provide that as an option.
