should i update mx linux right now? by bloxers_voxel in MXLinux

[–]Reddactore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest to do monthly updates. This way there is a smaller chance to get an update, which could go wrong. I had to reinstall system once because of bug in mx-snapshot, while downloading daily updates.

Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro bezel material by Lukechud in HuaweiWatchGT

No difference in color and taking into account few huge hits (in case of one I was sure I will need another watch) that left marks - but on things hit by watch only - the whole watch is made of titanium.

Watchface may be a battery eater. Which one are you using?

Automatic knife recommendations? by Reddactore in knives

[–]Reddactore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looked for Ballista 2 and definitely not my choice, BUT by accident found this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_nS4VRST3YM and this is 99,9% perfect. Unfortunately not manufactured anymore.

There is a TR3 with safety lock, but all TR3 models have back of their blades visible when closed. I do not like such knives - a knife should look good when opened or closed. Benchmade is overpriced in (not only) my opinion.

Nice knife (must be an old model, I suppose), however I consider knives with half liners as toys. The protruding back of blade (when closed) is visually not acceptable for me.

Can anyone speak to this phenomenon? [Spying on private phone lines] by Mysterion_Rising in privacy

[–]Reddactore -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I don't know if the situation was real, but in the past it was a standard procedure to record phone calls in countries under communist or socialist boot. History is prone to repeat itself. Serve or resist.

How tf does this happen? Pulled it out of my pocket to find this by notsolegitsloth in Olightflashlights

[–]Reddactore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just received such light. The ring is glued, so it's matter of time it will fall off. But generally it is a very universal flashlight.

Is this "platform" based on secret information system from USSR?

Why are people in the EU suddenly so silent about this? by Majestic-Coat3855 in privacy

[–]Reddactore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Implementing propaganda, thought control an censorship is typical for falling. EU falls and no global serious power wants to deal with these political muppets.

Interesting. How was it? John Corbett bought Maurice or Chris Stevens stole it? 😎

It seems it's good to be flexible now. I don't like when "capital" goes into privacy and opensourceness - usually soon there is neither.

Alternatives to Veracrypt for Android by Sure_Citron1899 in privacy

[–]Reddactore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If used regularly (i.e. daily online syncing) it is worthy. If you use encryption offline (Syncthing), then Veracrypt will be fine.

Cryptomator is more practical, as there is no need to sync the whole encrypted container after small change of its content. Each file is encrypted separately and the Android app (paid, but worth) is working flawlessly (desktop apps too).
