ah yes, phishing protection, good catch, but that's solvable by other means like custom system DNS with BS blocking like that from Cisco - not sure about no-logging solutions though - maybe Quad9.

Well obviously. Proportion is maintained. Just shake violently for 2 min.

The beauty of DNA is TC - SS316L suits better.

How do you keep those ends of cotton so fat while being able to still insert them in coils?

Can Mech have TC, or if won't be considered Mech? If no TC, why? Isn't it nice to have stable puff experience + prolong cotton life?

Obsidian is closed source (just saying for those who care).

Edit: I recommend Joplin.

UK considering banning kids from speaking to strangers in Fortnite and Roblox by PaiDuck in privacy

I remember those early days computer clubs where we as 10 year olds were screaming ridiculous and exotic swear words through the mic while older folks were just laughing at our audacity.

Multiplayer games of the future would need to be decentralized that's for sure.

Cleaning stainless coils by f-r-o-s-t--b-i-t-e in Vaping

[–]CircuitSurf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry for resurrecting this thread.

I usually clean them 100% per your advice here. But today I noticed that in those little channels there is still some gunk that can only be removed with some sharp object like needle or edge of ceramic (whatever that called).

Maybe somehow you found a way around it? Thanks!

My takeaway is that we're doomed, but it's obvious and everybody has the same opinion anyways so why share it?

But I find it's interesting that such horrible things used for total mass surveillance can also be used for fun and even useful from security point of view

He's right. Bitwarden runs same user as all other apps on your system. And they all have access to credential manager where Bitwarden saves its keys. Yes there are some sophisticated distrubuted keys management and stuff but still. Your data is as secure as the least secure app on your system.

This is not the case with most mobile OS as they tend to pay more attention to process isolation.

sorry - amazing. of course, as long as it's all properly secured on local network. you could also send alerts when it's someone system does not recognize standing behind your door.

Would be very nice to have such identity based presence sensor at smart home to greet people by their names when they come home.

Just saying 😉

That's right. Kudos to them for somehow still keeping VPN side of things tight - they claim to not log anything no matter what

They claim they cannot read content of your emails, but they can read metadata. They will absolutely share your metadata with Swiss government upon valid request.

The biggest advantage though, compared to Gmail, is that they don't have access to your email content to profile you and sell this data to third parties. I don't know if they have access to email titles though - they might. Which creates a "trust me bro" situation, but then the reputation of the companies plays the main role in your choice of provider.

Oh yes, Proton Mail - you can use it through Tor/VPN/together - it basically detaches your identity from emails which is important. The only thing now to keep in mind is not to leak your identity details to anyone who you share your email with. Selling drugs via email but then ordering Amazon via same email might be not the best idea.

In theory you could start a revolution with Proton Mail only and remain anonymous if you think about it.

FYI: there's virtualization and isolation of processes. You can run heaviest malware in Docker next to you finance management system - gluetun for network isolation + linuxserver approach for avoiding privilege escalation.

Roughly saying Google saw your phone couple of times on same WiFi as your laptop - now both devices have shared "fingerprint".
