Telegram adds option to let users report content on app two weeks after CEO Pavel Durov’s arrest After almost 2 weeks of CEO Pavel Durov’s arrest, Telegram will start moderating private chats as well.

this all seem confusing, there’s no such thing as “private” chats on Telegram, only secret chats which are E2EE, well even their encrypting is questionable

Web rendering engine written in Rust

you’re so beautiful 💕🏳️‍⚧️

I’m so excited about the “private space” feature

I heard from people who have tried both Void and Alpine, that Void is much more easier to use as a desktop OS while Alpine is more suited as a server OS…

Thank you, this answer covers it all :D

but if they want to get at the data they’ll just pull the HD and run code-breaking software on it on and entirely different super-computer. TPM won’t help you at all in that case.

You make it sound so easy and doable, but the reality is that without meeting certain conditions such as the existence of the original TPM chip, a brute force attack will render the data irretrievable… And even if I’m wrong in the last part, that would still be a pain in the butt for the attacker… and it’ll buy me time… like you said … belts-and-suspenders

This doesn’t sound to me as if you’re concerned about espionage

Because i don’t have second chances, which is why I wish there’s way to erase everything by entering a key combination… somehow… Idk… like Android has that…

I guess I’ll just add them to my mental list of companies to avoid.

😆 mental ?! I already have my list in my browser bookmarks

VC funded, not exactly a community project, I’m skeptical, and worried about it’s future

It’s my go to messenger, idc about the crypto stuff, it’s just a way to reward volunteers who use their servers for all the mathematical conversions, and I have been thinking of running a node myself, to make the network more decentralized

It has some downsides though, you can’t send larger files than 8mb, and if you lose your recovery phrase, you’re compromised, and you can’t edit messages

I used to tell people to use Signal or Element, but I noticed many can’t even sign up, Session just generates a random ID for you, and voila…

Oh, I never heard of this one before, it certainly meets the criteria, I read the documentation to understand it more

yes, the developer seem very opinionated :|

Idk if FDE is enough, what if the attacker can modify the boot code to capture the decryption keys and other stored passwords ? as far as I know this is exactly what secure boot protects against, it checks the validity of the boot code using the TPM chip, if it’s already there, why don’t most distros use it ? instead you’ll see that secure boot is greyed out in the Bios ( which means it’s not supported )

and yes, I did lock down the Bios too, with a different password

Edit: I’ll check EndevourOS documentation, Mint is cool but it doesn’t adobt newer standards or newer kernels ( newer kernels are just much more secure )

Storyboarder ( but I haven’t tried it yet ) it seems geared towards 2D animators

these 20 people are awesome :D

Sketchup is paid software, the web version is free but extremely limited

I have used Sketchup for more than 4 years, and after looking around for Alternatives to use on Linux, the only thing that can do the job is Blender, it’s not just for animations and 3D printing, in fact blender can do anything you can imagine, if not by itself, then by the addition of addons

Out of the box, Blender doesn’t behave like Sketchup, but it can do so by enabling some preinstalled addons ( like Archimech, Measure it, Precision Drawing Tools, Stored Views, Auto Mirror… Etc ), also there are free and paid addons on the Blender Market

For modeling Blender is waaay more powerful than Sketchup ( but SU is much more simpler and I find myself using Addons - in SU - for the stuff I can do in Vanilla Blender directly )

For Printing: they both suck ( in a paper printing use case ), if you wanna print in Blender you’ll need to export to a 3rd party program like Inkscape or LibreCAD, or use an addon

Sketchup printing is just painful, save a view, save the file, fire up Layout, import view, then print…like why ?!!

Piped and Libretube stopped working for me, they’re requiring sign up now, it’s sad :(
