Years ago, you could - I’m not sure what the situation is currently, but it would be extremely weird if they had removed this possibility entirely. You could see if the official command line tool does what you need. At least there seems to be an option to change the password.

Ok, great to know. Nuance doesn’t cross internet well, so your intention wasn’t clear, given all the uninformed hype & grifters around AI. Being somewhat blunt helps getting the intended point across better. ;)

You can play with words all you like, but that’s not going to change the fact that LLMs fail at reasoning. See this Wired article, for example.

I have to disagree with that. To quote the comment I replied to:

AI figured the “rescued” part was either a mistake or that the person wanted to eat a bird they rescued

Where’s the “turn of phrase” in this, lol? It could hardly read any more clearly that they assume this “AI” can “figure” stuff out, which is simply false for LLMs. I’m not trying to attack anyone here, but spreading misinformation is not ok.

Or, hear me out, there was NO figuring of any kind, just some magic LLM autocomplete bullshit. How hard is this to understand?

If the reason for you wanting to avoid bitlocker is incompatibility with linux, you might want to reconsider. It’s been many years since I had drives with bitlocker+ntfs, but they worked reasonably well back then with dislocker, so perhaps check that out before considering alternatives.

You might want to remember that he has done more to advance open source software than perhaps any other person on this planet. You don’t get to take away someone’s achievements just because you don’t like them…

You can use LUKS for something like this too by mounting a file through a loop device and then using it like any other disk/filesystem. For more details, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_a_non-root_file_system#File_container

Analysts: “Is this ‘car’ in the room with us right now?”

Musk: “I have concepts of a car.”

Frankly, I’m baffled to see such negativity here and in the github comments.

Sure, winamp could have handled this better and just referred to the release as “source available” instead of “open source”. Then again, calling it “open source” is not that far fetched and is likely only going to annoy those who want to find fault in any case.

It’s almost like “open source” has become a religion unto itself, with fanatic zealots defining what is and what isn’t acceptable - I kindly ask you to stop that bullshit, we have enough of these already.

Having source available is infinitely better than not having it, so let’s keep that in mind. Obviously, this doesn’t mean that people cannot give constructive criticism on how to improve the situation, but most of the shit on display here make my eyes roll hard enough to cause strain: https://github.com/WinampDesktop/winamp/issues/6
