1Password vs BitWarden

Jump

  • I'm using a combination of KeePassXC on Windows/Linux, KeePass2Android and Syncthing for database synchronization, plus a Yubikey for 2FA. Granted, it's not a setup I'd recommend towards non-tech people, but it would take a lot before I'd switch:

    • Works completely local, so I never have to worry about being locked out for any reason.
    • Despite that, I still get the benefits of online synchronization through Syncthing.
    • KeePassXC has by far the most powerful autotype functionality, which is a big timesaver since I often need to type passwords into non-browser windows.

    The last point in particular was a dealbreaker when trying out Bitwarden/Vaultwarden a few years ago.

  • With Nixxes doing the port and the wealth of details they're providing here I really hope that this will finally be another AAA game (I'm interestested in) that just works out of the box.

  • Two things I also like to do is changing my Youtube bookmark to https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions and adding the following two filters to uBlock:

     
        
www.youtube.com##.ytp-endscreen-content
www.youtube.com###related

    This basically makes it so that I only see videos from channels I'm actually subscribed to, without having any content pushed on me from the algorithm.

    • Why do video game devs tie game mechanics to framerate?

    Jump

  • A big problem with an unlocked framerate is the physics system, which you can generally solve in two ways:

    1. You tie the physics to the framerate. Problem is that this introduces all sorts of weird behavior, caused by rounding errors and frequency of collision checks. For example, objects could start glitching through thin walls if their framerate is low because collisions are checked less often.
    2. You run the physics at a fixed internal interval. This solves a lot of problem with the first approach, but also means that you have to put in effort to mask the fixed framerate through interpolation/extrapolation if you still want to keep the actual framerate unlocked.

    So Wolfenstein New Order probably went with the first approach, made sure their physics system stays stable within a certain FPS range (30-60), and then locked the FPS beyond that.
