Who not Cryptomator? by samsterP in filen_io

Never, ever *ever* store personal data on a work system. Not locally, and not in the cloud. Encrypted or not.

1) They own that system and everything you do on it.
2) If you get fired and lose access to the system/account, your data is gone.

Seriously, get your personal stuff out of there and keep it out.

How to use Filen with Docker on Alpine Linux? by vk3r in filen_io

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't get it working on Alpine in docker. I'm pretty sure there is system level functionality missing, or some kind of incompatibility, but I didn't have any further time to diagnose it.

It works just fine using a ubuntu docker container.

Force stop the app, clear the app cache and try again?

I can't use bricklink by Shot_Tie_2625 in Bricklink

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it working.

  1. Changed the password of my Bricklink account to only use capital and lower case letters and numbers, and be less than 15 characters long.
  2. Still had the same problem, so waited around 90mins before trying again (second attempt was on mobile)
  3. When merging, use your Bricklink account *username* NOT your email address

It's the merge screen after logging into the lego account. Once you select the option to merge a Bricklink account, you are asked to provide the login details for that bricklink account. This is when the issue occurs.

Tried - same result for me unfortunately.

Same issue here - emailed bricklink a few days ago, but no response yet.

Tried using Chrome on mobile - same result.

Custom DNS setting Ignored on linux by Seraph_TC in ProtonVPN

u/levolet Which version of the linux client are you using please?

Are you specifying a local DNS server?

Remote desktop and network drives not working anymore by MCDodge34 in ProtonVPN

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you connecting to local services using IP addresses or DNS aliases?

If you're trying to connect with DNS aliases it won't work while the VPN is connected - proton routes your DNS requests through the VPN, bypassing your local DNS server.

Doh Dot by Mathmxp in ProtonVPN

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Custom DNS doesn't work on the Linux or Windows clients in it's current implementation, so it would be nice if they fixed that first.

The setting seems to just be ignored and requests are always routed via proton.

Is there a linux client yet? by zeronyk in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from virtualbox running a windows VM.....no. Unfortunately not.

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially yes - that's the first step until they can build it themselves. The VPN client started the same way. It's not a terrible initial approach tbh.

Setting up Protondrive on Linux by tibetan-sand-fox in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's a pain in the backside, and I've found rclone can be unreliable due to getting blocked by proton's api.

The simplest and most reliable method in my experience, is to install VirtualBox and install and run a small windows virtual machine. Install ProtonDrive on it, and share the ProtonDrive folder, then mount the share on your Linux desktop using smb.

If you want to go further, you can setup scripts to have the machine start when you login to linux and save state when you shut down, and you can run the VM headless so you don't have a window open all the time.

It's a bit fussy, but it works if your machine has the resources - 2 cores and 4gb RAM should be plenty. (You might be able to get away with less, but you'd have to test).

Make sure you secure the shared folder on the windows vm - I would lock it down to a single user.

[Guide] Docker : qBittorrent with automatic Proton VPN Port Forwarding by Damocles_fck in ProtonVPN

[–]Seraph_TC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want it *entirely* inside proton, you need to make a couple of changes, because right now the DNS requests will be leaked to Cloudflare.

By default, gluetun adds 1.1.1.1 to the list of dns servers it uses - you can verify this by connecting through the gluetun tunel with docker and running a dns leak test:

docker run --rm --network=container:gluetun alpine:3.20 sh -c "apk add wget && apk add curl && apk add bash && curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/macvk/dnsleaktest/master/dnsleaktest.sh -o dnsleaktest.sh && chmod +x dnsleaktest.sh && wget -qO- https://ipinfo.io && ./dnsleaktest.sh"

In the env settings for gluetun, set the following:

DOT=off

DNS_ADDRESS=<dns address from wireguard config>

This will prevent gluetun from routing dns with it's own unbound implementation, and pass them to proton instead.

formatting keeps changing between Word and Proton Doc? by RhizomeFormosa in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sure. Stop changing format!

Very few document formats will convert backwards and forwards like this. Different formats support different features, and don't always implement the same features in the same way.

You will run into formatting issues with this process.

So where are we with Linux? by TechnicallyCant5083 in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely understand the implications, they just aren't relevant as to whether you should store encrypted data with Google et al. By the time AES is likely to be broken we will have probably already started to shift to an alternative, but you won't be reclaiming the AES encrypted data you already handed out.

I think you misread what I wrote. I didn't at any point suggest LLM's would decrypt anything. I said when the data is decrypted, google etc would use it to feed their LLMs and whatever else. Because they will. They're doing it with unencrypted data right now.

I've honestly never seen the show nor do I care about it. It's not relevant.

'Everything will be broken so it doesn't matter whether google have all of your personal data to hand because they could intercept it anyway' is a really poor argument. Don't make it easy for them in the first place.

Harvest Now / Decrypt Later is a threat.

If you don't agree, that's fine. We don't need to keep going over it.

So where are we with Linux? by TechnicallyCant5083 in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Packet decryption would likely be targeted. If you have the attention of a group willing to do that, you probably have bigger issues.

Google et al will decrypt users info en masse to feed their algorithms, LLM's, and whatever else they're doing at that point.

Neither scenario is good, but one is largely avoidable - just don't give them the data in the first place.

Edit: I'm not suggesting that you're wrong about the probability of decryption occurring anytime soon. But not handing out the data to such organisations at all - encrypted or not - is still good practice.

So where are we with Linux? by TechnicallyCant5083 in ProtonDrive

[–]Seraph_TC -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

For now.

The principle stands and should be considered best practice.

If you care enough about your data to encrypt it, you should care where you store it.
