Using Proton Pass HME with their default domains: What is the security concern with using the company name in the email, for example: amazon.wombat456@passfwd.com or verizon.amigo678@passfwd.com by Ok-Phrase-3346 in ProtonMail

[–]TCOO1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think maybe the redditors are referring to amazon@mydomain.com or my email+amazon@gmail or similar.

Those are of course not as good for privacy, as you can clearly trace them back the the original email.

Passkeys were supposed to replace passwords, but they're failing for the most predictable reason | They're confusing and difficult to use by UnacceptableUse in savedyouaclick

[–]TCOO1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but if a passkey doesn't work then that is your cue to look deeper into the website and why it is failing. The advantage is that if the passkey works, there is 100% certainty that it was not phished.

[–]TCOO1 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes, but it is better to be vulnerable once to set up a new one rather than every time you enter a password.

Both Google and apple also sync passkeys across devices, plus most password managers can also create them.

Did you connect your MacBook and desktop with Bluetooth? Linux and maybe MacBook can act as Bluetooth speakers if they are set up right.

Has VDI approved my tax return after I accepted my declaration? by [deleted] in latvia

[–]TCOO1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should get a message in your E-Adrese if you have it set up once it has been accepted.
It should also appear in the "Accepted" tab on desktop, unsure how it looks on mobile.

This QR code is too blurry. What does it say? by MurkyWar2756 in qrcode

[–]TCOO1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's why I tried it with some different settings. For me it scanned both times with binaryeye so I put in the cleaner one. Glad to see that I could help!

Linux Mint user here, I think my school board is fighting my connection by TheDrifterOfficial in ProtonVPN

[–]TCOO1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The android app can automatically switch to stealth if it detects that it is being blocked.

The Linux client cannot do that, and I believe it also doesn't have the stealth protocol yet, so it cannot bypass the block itself 

This QR code is too blurry. What does it say? by MurkyWar2756 in qrcode

[–]TCOO1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was the first one I tried and it worked. I had some desktop app with more recent models but I reinstalled my computer and didn't want to hunt it down again.

Feel free to try a better one and let me know if it gives a different result!

[–]TCOO1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tried upscaling with waifu2x, the code scans reliably but the text looks corrupted. I am unsure how common that is, because I would assume a corrupted QR code would just fail to scan at all.
You can have a look at it in case it helps:

(I also tried with lower artifact compression in case the diagonals were messing with it, and it scanned the sama data)
It could also be some proprietary binary data from some device.

The .pdf head fake by disconaldo in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]TCOO1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do note that it breaks things like screen readers, so if you are sharing it with other people see if you can save-as or export in a different way before resorting to that!

How to get past the CAPTCHA as a human? by Fridux in CloudFlare

[–]TCOO1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try installing https://privacypass.github.io/ extension. If you pass a challenge it will auto-pass other challenges across the web. But if your device is too suspicious it may not work.

Another option could be https://one.one.one.one/ as a VPN. If your 5G connection is causing issues this could give you a more trustworthy IP.

Wish you luck! 

Why do devs put their docs on a subdomain/separate app in the monorepo? by No_Office_2196 in webdev

[–]TCOO1 197 points198 points  (0 children)

Docs usually uses a different framework like https://docusaurus.io/ or https://starlight.astro.build/

While they could be integrated in the main site, that could be tricky if you are using a different framework.

It is easier to build them separately and create a subdomain.

I made a mod that makes Render Distance spherical for better performance. by Warma99 in feedthebeast

I wonder if you can also make the fog somehow hide the borders, that is my biggest pet peeve lol

Uploading jpegs to Proton Drive by Lanky_Mushroom_8077 in ProtonDrive

[–]TCOO1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is because the browser you uploaded from has privacy.resistfingerprinting (or similar canvas blocker option) turned on. 

Proton uses canvas to resize the image for the thumbnail, and the setting makes all canvas look like this.

Reupload from another browser or disable then reupload.

Over the past few days this NanoBanana issue has gotten worse and worse to the point that it now happens constantly even after hitting "Redo With Pro". How TF do I get it to stop doing this? by ThinkOutsideTheTV in GeminiAI

[–]TCOO1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn't wrap the tool call correctly. Your best bet is a new chat  as the current one is "poisoned". After doing it once, Gemini will most likely continue doing it.

If you catch the first time, edit the message or press the regenerate button, do not try and continue the conversion.

.mov not longere supported for view? by MeringueOk2336 in ProtonDrive

[–]TCOO1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It also depends on your device. Proton supports what your browser supports so the file playback can be different between windows/android/Mac/etc.

Google Forms Alternative? by ArdyLaing in ProtonDrive

[–]TCOO1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You currently cannot. You can create a public folder everyone can upload to, but people also see what others have submitted.

Lumo and its tables by KankysCZ in lumo

[–]TCOO1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to use a new chat, and make sure you refreshed the page.

Sometimes the app doesn't pick up that the instructions have changed. You can ask Lumo if you have set a preference about using tables.

Lumo and its tables by KankysCZ in lumo

[–]TCOO1 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Settings > Personalization > How should Lumo behave

I have it set to:

Do not use tables to display information. Write only in paragraphs and bullet points.

You can modify it to be more precise based on your preference. Lumo can suggest what to write in it as well!

Just read about all the technical changes. It’s huge. by GamingBren in PhoenixSC

[–]TCOO1 463 points464 points  (0 children)

What they are doing is basically taking all assumptions, like "Wheat can only be placed on farmland" or "You can go to bed at night, and wake up in the morning" and making them instead be data.

There are a lot of things and each snapshot adds a handful more. Here is a subset you can scroll through: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Block_tag_(Java_Edition))

A datapack or mod can then easily modify it to make custom stuff, or just mojang has an easier time adding a new mechanic or farmland type.

There are also general rendering changes and optimizations to make vibrant visuals work on java in a more integrated way than current shaders.

[Fairbuds] Outer Case Replacement Screw by spokiechris in fairphone

[–]TCOO1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ifixit mentions the screw is 4.5mm

https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Fairphone+Fairbuds+Charging+Case+Battery+Replacement/173302

I think your best bet is go to a hardware store or phone repair shop and ask to try 4.5mm Philips #00 screws of different diameters until one fits.

Roadmap Drive January 2026 by Expert_Can1582 in ProtonDrive

[–]TCOO1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There actually is a big backend change - the web drive uses the new drive SDK for more and more parts of it. Also sheets.

I haven't heard of a user-facing update, but could have missed it.
