My mom says I'm very important ... so I'll assume this was a state actor

But yeah, this is most likely. I changed my settings to lock faster with a longer pin

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 13 points 9 months ago

Yeah. Definitely setting that up now haha. They used my phone to call my contacts, so I don't have their number

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 6 points 9 months ago

Graphene has and emergency dialer, but you can't call my contacts from it.

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 20 points 9 months ago

Fingerprint and pin code. They left the phone at a store nearby and I went to pick it up

I'm running Graphene on a Pixel 6. I lost it and someone opened it somehow and called two of my contacts to give it back.

I'm a bit confused how this even happened. When I got the phone back, they were going through my contacts. I checked app usage stats and they went through a banking app (not missing money), maps, signal, etc.

Is there a way to figure out how they even unlocked my phone?

My kid [3yrs] speaks the local language with his other parent (separated. 50/50). and English with me (my native language). I speak both and my kid knows this, so I can't hide it.

He speaks the local language well, but English is a struggle. Comprehension is 100%, but he only speaks random words. He mostly speaks to me in the local language. Where we live, he will learn English in school, so I'm not worried about that.

I've tried various things to get him speaking English, but it's a struggle.

Are there any strategies that might work?

I didn't see this on any privacy guide, but with minimal work, you can have a cloud drive that's accessible from your phone and laptop.

Basically setup Rclone mounted => Rclone crypt => Rclone + Backblaze. Dump all your files and it works like a normal cloud drive. Android Rclone client is here https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync/releases

Round Sync let's you setup Cronjobs so you can backup all your photos or whatever automatically. I have a job that syncs all my photos to my drive every couple days.

I store a lot in Backblaze and it's <1USD/mo. I can provide details if there is interest.

If they didn't sell us back our water, what would we do?! Install pipes and do it cheaper without plastic?!?

"Under the terms of the bill, encrypted messaging apps would be obligated to check users’ messages for child sexual abuse material."

Good job UK. You broke WhatsApp. Now try Signal or GPG. Oh no. Look. You can't. Honestly, pure dumbfuckery.

I oppose child sex abuse, but banging your head against a wall will not solve it.

I'm preparing to file a complaint that may result in retaliation. My company might try to lay me off to make me go away. What should I do to prepare?

I'm currently,

  • collecting performance reviews
  • evidence that they are not planning to lay me off at the moment
  • evidence to support my complaint

Anything else I should do?

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah. This is literally just to simplify the questions of why do I have multiple boy/girlfriends. It's not like I can hide that from my kid.

The alternative is to let them think I'm cheating, which is what other people in my kid's life will tell him.

It's no different than trying to answer the two dads question.

I'm in the market for books that normalize poly parenting. I have the Red Stroller for normalizing different family types (eg. single parent, gay, interracial).

My child's other parent (separated) is very conservative and my family is too. I'm not trying to "push" poly, but prepare my kid mentally/emotionally if people say shit about me. I still have several years before I would need to come out.

For example, ones that implement these guidelines? https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/guides/linux-hardening.html

Alternatively, packages for Fedora that would set this up automatically

Where I live, Google Maps is the only mapping option.

Is there anyway to download the route as .ics to add to Proton Calendar?

I'm particularly interested in highlighting the scientific method or historical method. Preferably with short episodes of ~10min and not too flashy/magical.

Any recommendations?

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 25 points 1 year ago

Utter bullshit. I only use these services for academic publications/books (fiction I just get from the library).

Academic articles are paid for with tax money. Fuck private control over tax funded research.

I called some people I'm seeing partners, but got scolded by a friend because I guess partner means a relationship that's more "serious". My friend suggested calling them lovers.

I'm emotionally involved with all my people and I care about them. I just get an ick from labels and relationship ladders (abusive family).

I'm looking for a word that's unassuming, but clearly says "I'm not single" so I can easily be honest with monogamous people.

Any suggestions? Lover sounds a little too much like cheating.

I read things like "70% of emissions are by large energy companies". It often seems to be followed by claims that individual action is insignificant.

The logic seems off because if everyone stopped buying from those companies, then the emissions would be gone. Or in effect, buying from those companies buys you a share of the emissions.

Is there a good breakdown of the emissions? What percent is attributable to the consumer? Am I missing something?

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 13 points 1 year ago

Personally, I think we should plan for hot world and try to reduce emissions. I have very little faith in decarbonization efforts.

I have connections to inner energy company circles that work in renewables. When they get drunk, they openly admit to green washing. Unless governments seriously address this with sanctions and legal actions, it will never happen.

It's like clogging your toilet. Unclogging it sucks, but it's your fault. I don't see this being fixed without serious uncomfortable painful corrective action. Governments don't seem interested in that.

Or she/he's young and made a dumb decision.

Your post on the other hand shows that you are rash, judgemental and quickly offended. You are too emotional to rationally understand humans and their ability to make mistakes.

That's meant as satire, but probably not a good idea to insult strangers we don't know.

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago

As long as the abuse unethical companies, I truly don't care. Good for them. Just don't do this at places that make a difference

What are your ways of finding the poly people in your local area? Do you have a community and meetups?

I'm trying to run my work profile over VPN. The best thing I've found so far is external GL.iNet router and put my phone on airplane mode.

Are there any better solutions?

[-] Dislodge3233@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

Can't speak for all countries, but some countries like Estonia, identity is stored via asymmetric certs that can't be downloaded off your card. The only thing centralized afaik, is the authority cert. If that gets compromised, all signatures require a trusted timestamp, so you can easily invalidate signatures made with false or compromised certs.
