Is there anything unsavory about ProtonMail?

For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they’re on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google...

MangoKangaroo,

My experience has been fine. If you go into Proton Mail with the understanding that you’re doing it to stop Google from data mining your email, and not for the sake of truly private/anonymous email, you’ll have a good time. The aliasing feature is super nice as well.

MangoKangaroo,

Based on the reading I’ve done, it doesn’t really seem like one exists - it’s just not what email was designed to do. I’m not an infosec professional, but that’s the impression I’ve been given by others in the field.

MangoKangaroo,

I’m mostly just protecting the mountain of old stuff in my archives that I’m too much of a digital hoarder to delete. ;D

a lack of sender authentication is another one

This one is a nightmare. We spend bucketloads on DMARC shit in our department, only to still have loads of issues with email spoofing.

MangoKangaroo,

A bit of an anticlimactic ending, but it’s still nice to see Team 0% achieve their goal.

Android users who have a keen eye for design and detail, how is the whole stutter/lag situation? Esp. after a few years of use?

I haven’t used an Android device since my last one, the Galaxy S8. Beautiful hardware, beautiful design, but it was plagued with animation stutters and dropped frames. I switched to an iPhone and an iPad around 6 years ago. And the animations were buttersmooth. It was almost unthinkable to achieve such a fluid interface on any...

MangoKangaroo,

I’ve had a pretty smooth experience with both the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 7 Pro.

MangoKangaroo,

Dare I say things are going better this week? I’ve still got little worries, but I’m at least functioning normally again. I had my first electrolysis appointment today. News flash: having your face electrocuted hurts. I’m hoping I can get some numbing cream from my doctor so I don’t have to dread my appointments in the future.

Doxxing and callouts on Beehaw politics

Hey folks. I just want to check in with the community about a post that was recently removed. My intention is absolutely not to create drama or stir anything up, but I’d like to make sure you all understand my reasoning for removing the post. Also, I’m aware that I’m not as good at articulating these kinds of things as...

MangoKangaroo,

I usually stay away from the political content for the reason you mentioned, but I figured I’d chime in and say I think this was a good decision. Stonetoss is a piece of shit, but there are plenty of other places on the internet for posts like that to happen.

MangoKangaroo,

Maybe not your speed genre-wise, but Final Fantasy Tactics has a version for the PSP. Goated game.

MangoKangaroo,

Gemini figures this is a rough-skinned newt, taricha granulosa. The Wikipedia images look about right!

MangoKangaroo,

I don’t think this is a lizard, but probably an amphibian? Looks like the salamanders we used to catch as kids.

One of my friends pointed this out after I posted this. I don’t know the difference. 😭

MangoKangaroo,

Gemini mentioned the possibility of those as well, but the habitation ranges I saw made me second-guess whether either could be correct. Either way, definitely a little dude. :D

MangoKangaroo,

Too late, it already grew hair and started a nation-state.

MangoKangaroo,

All done! Glad y’all got things sorted. :)

MangoKangaroo,

Fucking hell, 2+ years to get a diagnosis? I’m sorry you’ve had to go through that, and I’m glad you’re finally going to be getting the meds you need without going bankrupt in the process. Still rooting for you and Meghan. :D

MangoKangaroo,

I’m miserable. I’m seriously hoping that my happy pills will start putting in some work soon, because I haven’t been able to eat or sleep for two weeks now. I do have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, so I’ll hopefully be able to get some answers to stuff that’s been bothering me.

MangoKangaroo,

It’s been a combination of new and old body image issues that I’m having to reconcile. I’m getting through them, one day at a time.

MangoKangaroo,

Are you doing personal file storage, or is this for backups from a server? If it’s the latter case, and if your use case would benefit from deduplication, you could just stay on Backblaze and use something like Duplicacy (available as a free CLI app or paid web UI) to deduplicate and encrypt your files. This is the approach that I use for my homelab. The only issue you run into is that, in the case of Duplicacy, you have to use the CLI or web UI to restore your files (and god help you if you lose your keys).

MangoKangaroo,

Y’all already know that I’m staying with Beehaw wherever it goes (so long as I’m not the only one!)

MangoKangaroo,

I’m happy to announce I lasted about three weeks without antidepressants before running back for them! (I am not having a good time.)

MangoKangaroo,

I’m rooting for you, both in your hobbies and in your dating. :D

MangoKangaroo,

idk what it says about me but I’d probably destroy that dish

MangoKangaroo,

The consequences of straying too far from spawn got less interesting.
