I used support@protonmail.zendesk.com and they did not take long to respond. thanks for the help
thank you for the e-mail, I tried again and could not find that piece of text on thr page
Support e-mail
Can anyone share a Proton support e-mail?
I've just tried to find an answer on their new support page and I'm baffled by the whole experience! Specially the fact that, after not finding the answer I was looking for, I cannot, for the love of some dog, get to an address I can e-mail with the question
It was the same kafkaeske experience I've had with shitty services with shitty websites where, after looking for your particular situation, you end up choosing 'other' just to get pushed to the begining of this shitty flow
"Faster assistance is just a few clicks away" - what the actual fuck?? wrong path, man
ROM image download location
When one downloads a new update through the built-in updater, where does the file get put? I'm having trouble during the automated update process with the latest TWRP, and would like to do the dirty manual update
you're right. but I didn't expect everyone to have the opposite impression of what I had at first glance
am I the only one who understood this as the dude claiming the burguers flippers being the skilled labour, as in, trying to show solidarity?
the main way i get music files (320kbps mp3) is through the Soulseek network, which many commenter have mentioned. what has been left out is the best client to get into that network, that is free and open source software, which is Nicotine+. it work on any desktop OS
torrents are still valid but you won't find many artists there
I wouldn't call it a "scam" just manipulative marketing
the difference?
yes, they do (redmi the same as other xiaomi phones) and that's an important thing I left out.
I did create an account long ago with an alias email that i've used for the unlocking of several phones' bootloader. it also requires a phone number for "verification" when you start the unlocking process, so for anonimity you'd need an unregistered burner phone number
so it does leave a trace in their books
in case you go for a cheap new phone, around here the best option are some Redmi ones. recently got a Redmi Note 9 and slapped LOS on it for a friend, for about 170€. since none are very recent models, sometimes I had to spend a good time searching for them in shop stocks
i was still on the outdated OpenBoard, this is great. i'm using it right now
Banner graphics
I picked OpenTTD for the weekend and scoured BaNaNas and could not find the add-ons with the graphics that are being used in the banner of this community.
I managed to find some better 8pp trees, with "U&Trees" by Ufiby but I'd like to find those ground tiles and bridge graphics
Awnyone knows what's in use there?
there is a fork with proprietary dependencies removed called Signal-FOSS, whose repo you can add to F-Droid if you decide to trust it
Laser printer for small office
I'm looking for a new laser printer for a small office but I don't know what to get
I don't know what to trust around online reviews but am looking for something that will be as reliable and durable as possible for a small office that will print a couple dozen pages on most days, and less so on the others
I'd rather spend above average just to have it be reliable and durable, as stated above. If it could be on the smaller size it would be preferable since space is a concern
So I thought about asking here for recommendations. Thank you
Cable crimpers and networking tools
I'm in need of a cable crimper and some other network tools like a tone gen/probe, cable snipper/stripper, and I'll probably also get a cable tester, for a couple of jobs I'll be doing soon
So, I'm assembling a basic toolkit to install the physical network parts, and I'm asking here for recommendations on mid and high quality tools so I can decide on what to get
As one should do with tools, I'm ready to spend a buck (or euro, in this case) to get good and durable stuff, but these days looking for reviews online is a marketing shitshow, so I thought I'd come here to look for recommendations and try to find someone with actual practical knowledge and experience
Any advice is welcome!
Invidious dragging to a halt
For some time, trying to watch videos on Invidious or Freetube has been a pain. It has been oscillating day by day but now I get like 3 seconds of video for 8 seconds of loading time
Some days ago I saw a notice on top of the webpage in some Invidious instances stating something like "Youtube is trying to impede frontends"
Today i tried going to youtube.com and enabling some requests on uBO and videos loading freakin' fast
Is anyone getting the same?
SSH protects the world’s most sensitive networks. It just got a lot weaker | ArsTechnica
Novel Terrapin attack uses prefix truncation to downgrade the security of SSH channels.
> "The Terrapin attack is a novel cryptographic attack targeting the integrity of the SSH protocol, the first-ever practical attack of its kind, and one of the very few attacks against SSH at all. The attack exploits weaknesses in the specification of SSH paired with widespread algorithms, namely ChaCha20-Poly1305 and CBC-EtM, to remove an arbitrary number of protected messages at the beginning of the secure channel, thus breaking integrity. In practice, the attack can be used to impede the negotiation of certain security-relevant protocol extensions. Moreover, Terrapin enables more advanced exploitation techniques when combined with particular implementation flaws, leading to a total loss of confidentiality and integrity in the worst case."
> “Although we suggest backward-compatible countermeasures to stop our attacks, we note that the security of the SSH protocol would benefit from a redesign from scratch, guided by all findings and insights from both practical and theoretical security analysis, in a similar manner as was done for TLS 1.3.”

When teachers across Germany walked off the job in 2009, many knew they were violating a law barring strikes by government employees.
Pre-emptive Threads defederation
Should sh.itjust.works preemptively defederate from Threads?
Threads is the not-so-new reddit-like twitter-like public forum platform by Meta, the same commercial company behind internet behemoths like Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp. They're working on ActivityPub integration so that they can bridge (federate?) with the fediverse. As far as I know, the focus is on Mastodon instances, but in the future that could include Lemmy instances too.
Some have raised the question, worried about the future of the fediverse or even claiming that it goes against its definition.
What do you think should be done?
EDIT: correction
EDIT.2: The Vote is on! Go make your voice heard. You have until Friday the 29th.
what's the status on Threads
how can i know the de/federation status of the instance? IIRC the instance subscribed to an auto-defederation program to auto exclude bot instances and such. is there a way to distinguish these from the manual defederations? like exploding heads, or hexbear (i thought we were defederated from them but i've just seen the old posts from their users here on /c/main)
i'm asking just to have a way of knowing wich parts of the fediverse are hidden from view, since it's not obvious to me
also would like to know if there is a plan on the instance about threads? i've scoured The Agora but found nothing. wouldn't mind creating a discussion there
EDIT: just found the answer to my first question on another post: https://sh.itjust.works/instances
Mull and Android WebView
for anyone using Mull on Android, since i'm using it that the webview i see in apps like Feeder seems to be using Mull, although when checking the implementation in Dev Options, it does look (from logo and name lol) like normal Chromium webview
!screenshot of Feeder app showing Mull context window
what's really going on here, and how could i have properly checked it myself?
EDIT: vain attempts at posting inline image instead of link to hoster
EDIT2: thanks to noodlejetski@lemm.ee with the image thing (dumb me thought [] was that rectangle character you get in some fields where that character is not recognized ಠᴗಠ )
ProtonMail in F-Droid when?
since i've read this community was created by mods of r/ProtonMail and chose to uncritically believe it, this is the closest we are to an officially lemmy presence, so...just to make sure this question is in every ProtonMail forum:
ProtonMail app on F-Droid when???
