^ Cannot find that particular domain on any of the Apple-specific filterlists I know of*, but app.adjust.world/com/io/net/etc variations are blocked by most of the stricter filterlists** like OISD-full and 1Hosts(Pro), so it's more of a general-purpose domain not exclusive to the Fruit Company. I do...

Oh, another year. Let's all just default to being 80yrs old. Easier to keep up, and also a good excuse to forget.

Happy Barfday, Le Wuxinator.

Seems like the dnscheck.tools dev added more DNSSEC tests. Even checks for ED25519 now, the supposed "future recommended default" or whatever. Big guns like Cloudflare, NextDNS or Quad9 support it already obviously, but I'm surprised AhaDNS supports it as well. Colour me impressed.

^ If you take the time to go through your router logs (or use something like Wireshark), and cross-ref the connections with timestamps (helps if your router supports VLANs and you segregate your devices with them) and NextDNS logs, you'll likely notice some connections not picked up by NextDNS. Some...

Been testing this out over the last few weeks. Good DoH provider with customizable filterlists; https://blitz-setup.ahadns.com/ No DoT though, so for system-wide filtering on Android you'll need an app for it. If just for browsing you can set the generated DoH url string in your browser's Private/Se...

This arrived: https://www.discogs.com/record-stores/ Hence, I placed an order for a couple of records at my favourite store here. I know, it's not via Discogs, but still supporting the indenpendent stores like early 2000s (which is when I got my first salary and I actually started buying records fo...

I tend to shy away from the typical DJMag/MixMag/RollingStone featured electronica producer/DJ, not because I'm a hipster, but mostly due to most of the output being way too shallow/generic sounding. Anything they claim to be "innovative" I've somehow heard a decade ago, for whatever reaso...

^ Since you're into the privacy thing, here's a tip; take out referral bits from the links you share, as they can potentially be used for tracking. I read about their rebranding. Seem to be marketing themselves as a GSuite alternative, just without the data gathering. My personal opinions of Proton ...

Oh yeah, we had this thread. Since y'all on the F-Droid shift, may as well plug Infinity. In my eyes, it's the best looking Reddit client on any platform. Especially useful for folk like myself who just browse without an account. On the other hand, this keyboard I'm using on Android, OpenBoard, kind...

Useful knowledge in case you get on the wrong flight and end up in China or Iran or something.

Good luck with the exam results, btw.

When my FP2 dies, I'll probably move to a phone more reliable on the security/privacy side than this. But is there such a phone though, and would it matter? If you're deGoogling, then wouldn't device compatibility with the ROM you intend to use outweigh whatever privacy/security state the stock pho...

Gekko, I suspect you'll love this. Dubby, smokey, sumptuous NY style deep house.

If you manage to find a download somewhere, please hook me up. I'm making do with the measly 128kbps yt-dl rip for now.

^ I suspect it's combination of 1.technical incompetence, 2.cost and 3.wanting to cover their own asses 1. Because politicians/CEOs/marketing are the ones making the final decision 2. Because politicians/CEOs/marketing are the ones signing the cheques 3. Because it's easier to blame everything on Go...

Preface: I've been away from Android for a long time, so a lot of this is as new to me as it is for you chaps. @Ivan If you're using a deGoogled ROM and can do everything you need via F-Droid* then there is no reason for you to install microG. Reason some people use microG is for apps they need that...

^ DivestOS is supposed to be one of the better ROMs out there. They follow proper security practices (unlike LineageOS) and generally do a good job with blocking/limiting most of the beacons built into the internal chipsets, according to what I've read. What's the reason for banking being harder? Bo...

^ Ah, good to know. Either way, Mullvad's pricing structure doesn't try to sucker you into long term commitments, so you can pay monthly and cancel if it doesn't work for you. I recall you had some issue (which you sorted) with your uni's Cisco/IPsec network a few weeks back. If you need to use Mull...

Just the last 7 days, didn't even use it that much. Basically: 1Hosts Pro – (oisd + Lightswitch05) = Google and Facebook trackers built into SDKs or libraries used by apps, plus maybe some Google/Samsung location services. https://hostux.pics/images/2022/05/13/Screenshot_20220513-192255_Bromite3443f...
