@EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu, what’s up with this? It doesn’t seem in any way justifiable.

6·2 days agoIt would be trivially detected by widely distributed standard forensic software including the non-Premium variant of Cellebrite able to run on a laptop.
By “duress profile”, I mean that if user has enabled a “duress profile” feature in Settings, then entering the duress PIN would:
- Erase (the encryption key for) all profiles and storage outside the duress profile; then
- Unlock the duress profile.
So, how would forensic software detect that the unlocked profile is a duress profile?

107·2 days ago@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social everyone seems to be clamouring for the same thing: add “duress profile” to the roadmap. Keep up the good work.
On 18 Jan 2025, before Proton and Mullvad CEOs came out in support of the far right, Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) recommended:
Mullvad (Sweden)Mozilla VPN* (USA/Sweden)Proton VPN (Switzerland)- Tunnelbear (USA/Canada; owned by McAfee in USA)
- IVPN (Gibraltar)
- Windscribe (Canada)
I’ve crossed out the first three, since their CEOs support fascists. (I don’t think Mozilla’s CEO is fascist, but Mozilla VPN uses Mullvad under the hood, so Mullvad presumably gets access to the bulk of Mozilla VPN users’ money and connection data.)
Nym is not on the list, so presumably didn’t meet FPF’s requirements.

TheOnionWasRight@sh.itjust.works•The Onion was right about high-speed busses replacing high-speed rail
1·6 days agoI’m all for extra public transit, but 140mph on a bus (not a guided bus) sounds highly unsafe. 70mph is more realistic.
Kinetic energy rises with the square of velocity, so a 140mph bus would have 4x the KE of a 70mph bus.
- 70mph crash: dangerous but should be survivable for seat-belted passengers.
- 140mph crash: probably fatal to everyone on board and anyone in its path.





I overlooked this line from the docs:
I should have done
sudo apt install libgd-dev libusb-1.0-0-devbefore attempting compilation.
