  • The TOTP feature in Bitwarden works, if you paste in the whole otpauth:// URI to Bitwarden’s Authenticator Key (TOTP) field. The URL specifies that the hashing algorithm should be SHA256. If you just import the secret= value into Authy, it probably defaults to using the SHA-1 algorithm, which may be why the codes generated by Authy don’t work.

    SHA256 is more secure than SHA-1, which I guess is why Lemmy has chosen to use it for its 2FA feature.











  • Presumably they mean that the CPU resources are over-provisioned, meaning that the virtual CPUs allocated to VMs have to share a smaller pool of physical CPUs. If the VMs have a lot of idle time, this can work well, but if your VM suddenly needs more CPU, the processes on your VM might need to wait for a physical CPU, as physical CPU cycles that would normally be available to you have been “stolen away” by processes running on other VMs.



  • Has anyone noticed any parallels between this Reddit situation and what the Wizards of the Coast tried to do with their Dungeons and Dragons franchise? In both cases, a lot of the value to the business is brought about by community contributions. In both cases, the companies try to spring surprise charges on other businesses working within the ecosystem with a ridiculous fee structure couched in very strong language, making those businesses completely non-viable. In both cases, the user base ends up revolting and moving towards alternative “platforms”. How did it work out for WoTC in the end?
