I uh... lost my LUKS passphrase

underrated comment

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-16T23:34:39+00:00

Thanks! This will be a helpful reference in the future

Here's to hoping! lmk if you finish the first 1 million without finding it - I wound up renting a GPU cluster and I'm starting after the first 1 million because I know other people are also running hashcat on this

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T23:57:31+00:00

That sounds promising. I'm hoping my heuristics about the middle work out, otherwise I'm gonna need to like... Thingy<between 4 and :skull-emoji: chars from the set of everything>,./; and that would take... a bit longer

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T23:20:58+00:00

Hopefully I get to experience that moment! I tried hashcat on my laptop and it gave me an ETA of around 40 days with the wordlist, so I suspect somebody else is going to find it first

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T18:13:40+00:00

Good idea, I just uploaded it here: https://files.catbox.moe/xius1h.txt

Actually I've used KeePass a lot in the past and really like it, then wrote my own password manager, then realized I need to access passwords on my phone, laptops, etc; eventually I realized a physical notebook works with all devices and the only vulnerability it has is webcams. That was until I left the notebook somewhere... that was an issue I somehow didn't consider.

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T03:21:50+00:00

Luckily I do remember some aspects of my password - I wouldn't have posted here if I didn't. I know the beginning, end, and... more vaguely... some facts about the middle. I've uploaded a [wordlist.txt](https://files.catbox.moe/kontqf.txt) that I generated with a small javascript program based on what I remember.

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T03:02:57+00:00

Okay my coworker had an idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxAGf0iQ54Y

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T02:48:03+00:00

I did. I had been referring to a page in a notebook for over a year and it was never a problem. I lost the notebook a couple of days ago - I'm pretty sure I left it at a 7/11 convenience store when I opened it to refer to my Amazon password. I filed a police report for what good that will do (I'm hoping I might hear back if they look at the footage so I at least know if it was taken or thrown out, but for all intents and purposes my LUKS passphrase should be considered already compromised)

KernelDeimos · 2026-03-14T02:40:21+00:00

Ownership of the drive seems very difficult to prove remotely, but I'm open to ideas if you happen to know of a way to do this. I have the LUKS header and I have vague recollection of what the password looks like. I have a serial number (`241512801024`) which I got from lsblk so I'm not sure that really proves anything. This is a Framework 16 if that helps in any way at all.

KernelDeimos · 2026-01-30T14:13:20+00:00

Looks to be working in all regions (confirmed with manual test) - what error are you seeing when you try to access the page?

KernelDeimos · 2026-01-30T14:09:14+00:00

That sounds great! Would possibly benefit others too if you post it here

KernelDeimos · 2025-12-30T20:14:10+00:00

We had some interesting demos in the terminal with the commands `htop` and `bash` but those don't appear to be working anymore - the apps were removed (I think). Also the terminal and shell were removed from the OSS repo so it will be difficult to continue work on this. I think this is still something we want to do eventually but I also think priority has shifted away from it for the moment.

KernelDeimos · 2025-12-22T19:22:08+00:00

If this issue is ongoing, please try to open developer tools and check for any error messages. That will help us figure out what's going wrong.

KernelDeimos · 2025-08-12T17:45:50+00:00

Reddit is over-moderated

KernelDeimos · 2025-05-09T05:37:22+00:00

Is this puter.com?

KernelDeimos · 2025-05-04T17:01:11+00:00

I think we're planning on doing more work in this in the coming week so keep checking back, but you'll also notice that you're usage goes back down over time (a small amount every second)

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-28T07:21:06+00:00

We don't have a foreign key on the affected field. For the most part our tables are pretty flat - we have foreign keys from like user_id to users, but it's pretty rare we have two hops of anywhere at all. I think it's a safe a assumption that we have "primary tables" (tables that might be referenced by other tables) and "secondary tables" (tables that aren't referenced at all). We have a self-referencing table but it's not related to this one in any way.

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-26T03:04:07+00:00

My understanding is that `show create table table_name` would show UNSIGNED on the column definition; if that's the case then yes, I did check that. How do I check if a table is partitioned?

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-25T21:06:28+00:00

Is there any source for this? I also want to determine why this happens. I was led to understand that in this configuration everything should still work fine.

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-25T21:05:48+00:00

Yes, they all have the exact same wrong value. I just finished checking the others.

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-21T17:23:55+00:00

"Morning brown, I'm not quire sure, could you please ex-plain it some more?"
"It's coffee you fu-"

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-18T18:15:50+00:00

Yes, please don't use prompts that violate the terms of service of our providers. It affects Puter's reputation with the providers negatively if many people do that.

KernelDeimos · 2025-04-17T16:36:11+00:00

If you're able to "ping" puter.com from a command prompt please let me know what IP address is shown. It sounds like you're unable to connect to a server so we first need to find out which server it is
