Appreciate and upvote every reply to my comments/posts if I can detect any effort being put into it; even if I think you completely missed what I tried to say or strongly disagree with your opinion.

Occasionally I cannot resist shitposting, hyperbolic, ironic, sarcastic or populist rhetoric; no /s

  • [solved] cannot Boot Debian from USB

  • seems to involve disabling secure boot, not happy with that. will cause more paranoia 😬

  • [solved] cannot Boot Debian from USB

  • like i said, i tried mint, does not work from that stick, only tails works. what i want to achieve is not much:

    • create files that i cannot decrypt in my windows, even if i have the keys or the password, which i both dont have. (already done in tails)
    • run this one single app on a secure usb, so when my windows or phone have a virus/stolen/lost, this app is not there and not in danger.

  • Appreciate it a lot, thanks. What Distro would you recommend running from a USB?

    Beside security concerns about stuff that I don't understand, my only real needs are:

    • Kleopatra (to generate keys and passwords my Windows will never know about)
    • And this fucking App that will not connect to the internet on Tails.

  • ProtonMail voluntarily offers Assistance for Real-Time Surveillance

  • basically.

    even minimal metadata for example from signal contains

    Message dates and times

    Message senders and recipients (via phone number identifiers)

    From these 2 pieces of information, its possible to build social graphs: who talked to who, and when they did it. Also, who's in a group chat with who else.

  • On unexpected keyboard i need to swipe the enter key upwards right and it opens sayboard 😸

    thanks for bringing my attention to this!

  • Could you explain how to "pair" them?

    Unexpected keyboard also has a voice dictation button, could not figure out how to make use of it.

  • Thanks, appreciate it. And just to be clear, i found this article on the internet and thought its interesting to share with a community who claims to care about privacy; it was not meant to be a slander attack or anything, and I remain like 80% sure that youre not CIA 😜

  • yes replacement and improvement, but unexpected keyboard is true innovation. I really like it but for diacritics and "special letters" its just not as good. to type â for example i need to hold a, then select the letter, whilst in unexpected keyboard I just need to swipe a upwards right.

    oh I will say it again ... those two apps need to have a baby 😅

  • Proton blog: Are security questions terrible for account security?

    Jump

  • no they are not, just another stupid article from proton. nothing stops you from saying that bwE0FpHb5iPzMZiismyeiTIWhoB*#V8SaD0F3R*SeH was your first pets name.

    proton however stops you from disabling otp after setting up multiple security keys, they stop you from putting a pin on your drive app and they stop you from using an +4 digit pin on your mail app.

    but yea, the potentially insecure thing they dont even offer is the biggest concernn here 🤦‍♀️
