I don’t feel a particular high after working out, but I feel better than when I don’t do it. It’s not a “whoohoo everything is great” feeling, just general contentness and a good mood.
I don’t get a lot of that in the gym. The gym is boring as hell, and my solution to burning calories without getting bored to death is watching Netflix on those cardio bikes. I’m not getting any enjoyment out of the activity itself but it passes the time and I still get to feel the mood improvement after I’m done.
Status symbol. That, and many people are horrible with their devices. They drop them and scratch them, crack the screen, chip them.
They abuse them and load them with tons of apps. Fill up the phone with videos and photos. The battery holds less of a charge because many people use their phones as computers and will constantly be cycling it dead 3 times a day or more.
Apps update and use more resources and space. They could just clean up their phone, do a reset, and have a case for protection but choose not to and just buy a new one.
Sometimes I’m loving the workout and feel like I’d be able to workout for hours on end and other times it’s not as enjoyable and I just want to get it over with.
But what I do enjoy is being able to see myself progress. Looking at progress pictures over the months/years and seeing growth, as well as being able to lift more than I ever have before. It never fails to make me happy.
I came here looking for Tremors. I was scared of the floor for weeks lol. Now it’s one of my favorite B movies (and the sequels up through 3; Burt is just too good of a character)
Although like everyone else, Event Horizon was watched when I was too young for that level of horror.
I’ve put Vaultwarden online and have configured it to backup over the network through duplicity. Updates are automatic (I have a cronjob that just does docker pull/stop/rm/run without checking the error codes). No downtime so far!
It’s been a while since I’ve used the official Bitwarden server, but Vaultwarden is pretty much foolproof. It’s one of the easiest programs to self-host that I’ve come across.

Ah, you like living on the edge 😛
I don’t trust automated Docker updates… There can be breaking changes between versions. I don’t want my Docker containers to automatically break themselves :D
It’s a testament to Vaultwarden’s update policies, not to my amazing server practices!
You’re right that this is a terrible idea and it will inevitably bite me in the ass, but keeping up to date with a dozen of self hosted services is a faff and I’ll accept the 15 minutes of docker fuckery to revert the updates if it means I don’t need to remind myself to perform server maintenance.
The official Bitwarden server: 2-4GB of RAM, mostly because of the SQL server and all of the separate containers. Probably at least two CPU cores to prevent one process from lagging everything out. 12-24GB of storage.
For Vaultwarden, the Rust reimplementation of the backend server: I don’t know, about 128MB of RAM? It’s using about 40MB of RAM on my server. It’s using about a minute of CPU time per hour for my install. Storage requirements are “the size of the docker container plus some database files”.
Both: a TLS certificate (Let’s Encrypt) and as much free space as you plan on sending through their encrypted file sharing service. Also the storage and configuration for your automated backups, of course.
Vaultwarden isn’t audited and it takes longer to get all of the features because it’s a hobby project and not an enterprise company. Bitwarden is set up to easily scale to whole company/whole enterprise usage. Vaultwarden is set up for “you and your family” scale which probably works fine for larger scales but I don’t think it’s set up for it out of the box.
How do you make the sever available via the Internet? Do you host it on a cloud provider (e.g. AWS EC2)? or do you self host on your own bare metal machine?
You can just open a port in the firewall/port forward a local server if your home ISP isn’t shit. If it is shit, you can run it in the cloud somewhere. I wouldn’t go with Amazon, they’re terribly expensive for hobby projects (who needs multi zone failover for a personal hobby project), any $5 VPS provider will do. Just make sure to install updates automatically so you don’t need to keep a close eye on maintenance and you should be golden.
Alternatively, if you don’t want to expose your server to the internet, you can set up a VPN server on your cloud server and only expose the password manager to your VPN. Wireguard is relatively simple to set up for this purpose, but tailscale (and whatever the self-hosted tailscale server is called) makes things even easier.
A cheap <$20/year VPS is sufficient to host Vaultwarden. No need to spend several times that. My Vaultwarden installation is only using 120MB RAM, so a 1GB RAM VPS would be more than sufficient. Take a look at RackNerd, HostHatch, GreenCloudVPS, and the other top providers on LowEndTalk. RackNerd’s latest sale has a VPS plan with 1GB RAM and 14GB SSD storage for $11.38/year: lowendtalk.com/…/boom-boom-4th-of-july-deals-come…, but I’d personally go with the 4GB RAM and 75GB disk for $47.88/year, since self-hosting is addictive and you’ll find plenty of other stuff you want to host.
I would trust the absolute bottom of the barrel services with unimportant things like blogs, but I don’t want my password manager to be hosted there. It just feels too sketchy to me.
Given the prices of these VPSes, you could get two or three with different providers and have a warm standby in case of any issues.
RackNerd is legit though - a real company with a physical office. I’ve had some VPSes with them in the past, and only got rid of them because I wanted to consolidate a few things.
I find working out to be an intensely boring experience. I ended up doing martial arts to stay fit because the work out ends up being incidental and the activity itself is engaging. I recommend trying something like judo or boxing depending on whether you would be more comfortable with grappling or striking.
It still need features. 85 issues about enhancements on GitHub approve it. But it does not mean it will be complex. If everything will be done right performance would be nice.
