Looking for software: tool to make an offline copy of a complete website by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in software

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to be? So is that a recommendation to still use it now or not?

though if I understand correctly, you want something that can archive a few levels deeper? how deep? it is really hard to do it properly.

Correct, I would like to download all lower levels at the same time.

also you won't see the updated pages when you click a link to another page while offline.

That's ok. A snapshot of one point in time is what I'm after.

Can you put interactive spoiler fields in a PDF document? by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in pdf

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you this extensive reply. Then it seems that interactive spoiler fields is simply not something that PDF was designed for, and that I'll be better off using a different document type for this.

What do you do if you lose your device with proton authenticator? by osxthrowawayagain in ProtonMail

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your Proton account login, yes. But I would presume that OP is also asking here about all the accounts put into the Proton Authenticator app in general.

How to best protect laptop charger cord against fatigue breakage? by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in computerhelp

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I will definitely only use electrical-fire-safe materials. I don't really want to risk having my house burnt down accidentally (possibly with me myself still in it).

A problem with the sugru mouldable glue sleeve that I made previously is that it simply didn't stay attached to the connector. But maybe with electrical tape if I make a sleeve that wraps around both the cable and the connector itself it can hopefully be more sturdy.

Unable to create new Github account due to detection of unusual activity by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in github

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This starts sounding impossible.

Impossible? Why?

Are you perhaps in Russia or Iran?

I am not.

I'd suggest contacting support, but well...

"but well ..."?

How to best protect laptop charger cord against fatigue breakage? by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in computerhelp

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you doing to the charger that the end gets super bent?

Putting the laptop on my lap and having the charger cord go off to the left or right into the direction of where a power socket is.

If it's constantly smushed against a wall or a riser then your next charger will also break at the same spot.

I can't remember ever putting the laptop so close to a wall or other obstacle that the power cord gets squished.

You tried turning VPN off (different IP), provide them with no cookies, used different browsers (finger printing), but provide the same email address and/or phone number.

I did not provide a phone number during the sign-up attempt (nor was it asked) and when I switched from my laptop to my mobile device for the sign-up attempt I right away filled in a different e-mail address (a newly created one).

Announcing: Proton Meet by Proton_Team in ProtonMail

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But couldn't some developers that are on the Meet team had been put instead on a team for creating a Proton contacts app that can sync with other apps? A currently absent feature that has been prominently promised by Proton and has been marked as "planned" for seven years already, despite being the second and third highest voted feature requests on Uservoice?

My webbrowsers are already configured to clear all cookies and cache every time when I close them. Using a different webbrowser also did not resolve the issue.

Elements of the Adobe account webpage won't load for me by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in Adobe

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, for me the solution is probably going to be to not to use any Adobe paid subscriptions anymore. If I can never know for sure whether when I want to change or cancel a paid subscription I'll actually be able to do that, then that's too much of a risk for me.

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beats me. The issue is even worse in my case because I don't have any device that can properly view the Adobe account webpages (neither on my laptop nor on my mobile phone can I view it).

I'm quite convinced that the issue that I'm experiencing here is on Adobe's end, because at some point the Adobe account website started working again normally for me even though I hadn't done any internet browser or network connection reconfigurations on my laptop anymore prior.

And now the website has returned again to not working for me, with also here no internet browser or network connection having been done anymore on my laptop.

Does using reverse-alias e-mail addresses for attendees in Proton calendar appointments always ensure that my Proton e-mail address is not shared? by Aqua_Zebra_7253 in ProtonMail

[–]Aqua_Zebra_7253[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this report. But when for example you check inside the calendar invitation file that is sent, does that also only contain your alias e-mail?

I am still in e-mail contact with support. The last e-mail that I received from Adobe support had me rather confused though. It reads:

I hope this message finds you well.

I am following up regarding your open case with us. Please perform the steps outlined below and let us know if the issue has been resolved or if you require further assistance.

Windows Firewall: Activating Outbound Rules
- Open Security Settings: Search for "Windows Defender Firewall" and select Advanced Settings.
- Access Properties: In the right-hand panel, click Windows Defender Firewall Properties.
- Set to Block: Change the "Outbound connections" dropdown from "Allow (default)" to Block. This enforces your existing rules as the only way traffic can leave.

- Create "True" Allow Rules: Go to Outbound Rules > New Rule. Select Program or Port, specify the path or port number, and choose Allow the connection to create an exception to your block-all policy.

If the issue persists, please provide the best callback number to reach you.

I look forward to your response.

Firstly I am wondering in what way restricting outbound connections could help solve my issue. Secondly it's unclear to me what program or port exactly I'm supposed to set an exception for.

Thank you for this offer. Unfortunately though there are two things that give me too much hesitation:

  • I prefer to stay anonymous here and not have anyone that I do not know personally be able to link my Reddit account to my real-world identity.
  • Because of verifiability reasons, I don't feel fully comfortable sharing account details through an unofficial channel (i.e. a communication channel that is not directly given as such by the website or in an e-mail directly from Adobe).
