I will say, not too long ago there was some question if I had setup a WhatsApp account with my number due to some emails I was receiving. Not wanting to install the app and unwittingly create an account just by checking if I had one, my wife created a group chat with just her and my number, sent a message, and then we saw it get marked as read by all. Which in an E2EE system should not have been possible without me having the app setup. so I did go ahead and wiped an old and setup the app to make sure I was in control of any account for my number, and I did then receive that group chat. But still, very sketchy.

An e2ee group chat would need every member to have every other member’s public key. So for 5 people, your client would sign with your private key and send 4 unique messages encrypted each with 1 other person’s public key. Each of them would decrypt their copy of the message with their private key and verify the signature with your public key. So I think what arcterus was saying was that employee who requests access to a user’s messages then becomes just another member of a group chat, but the UI just doesn’t show it as such. Every message you send is then secretly encrypted, on your client, with their special public key and sent to them to be decrypted. That would still be E2EE.

depends on the person.

Neat. So we should be able to see this from other manufacturers, too.

what’s PID?

the short route home

Please cite the legal mechanism that Obama and the Democratic Senate minority had available to them to force the confirmation of Supreme Court a nominee in 2016. Please be aware that Obama did nominate someone for that vacancy. In fact he nominated someone the Republicans themselves name-dropped as a good option. They methodically and purposefully prevented over 100 judicial nominees from receiving a vote, because they held the majority and there was no legal way to get around it.

he’d have some 'splaining to do.

yeah, very satisfying clicks when snapping components back together. licensing would be a smart move, I think.

For mail, Fastmail is a.much closer replacement to GMail. It’s the only provider I found that supports the same “Send as” feature that GMail has. It works with standard IMAP/JMAP/SMTP. I wish the Android app was separated into separate mail and calendar apps, though.

A problem common to Proton and Fastmail is they don’t feed into the system content providers for calendar and contacts, so that data is isolated from other apps. Fastmail supports CardDav and CalDav, though, so you can use CALx⁵ DAVx⁵ to get that sync.

Neither of them integrate Maps with their calendar.

Proton famously has no real offline mode at least for calendar, and the calendar app has no search (last I tried).

Proton Pass doesn’t let you specify a match algorithm so if you have separate logons for different subdomains (foo.example
com.and bar.example.com) it will show you all of them.

As others have mentioned, Proton has been spending time developing apps nobody asked for, like a crypto wallet and AI bot, instead of addressing popular user requests such as the aforementioned “send as” on mail, alternative domain matching in Pass, offline/search/maps in Calendar. They did just recently announce that they’re working on a Linux Drive client, they get credit for that.

That overtime goal by Poulin was top notch!

God damnit

do you get some kind of financial kick-back for linking with these janky-ass URLs or something?

I enjoyed it, but the planned sequel with Sam and Quora would have been more satisfying.

I had not. I was able to login to that with Chrome on mobile to store a passkey in Bitwarden. But I guess there’s some issue with Firefox+Bitwarden on Linux with passkeys, because attempting to login that way on desktop just gave me a prompt for fingerprint scan (don’t have). But the other methods button gave me the QR code, and scanning that from my phone opened the login link in Firefox mobile (which hasn’t worked at all thus far) which then opened Bitwarden mobile for the passkey, and that succeeded to login on the phone, where I could then enter the code and approve the login.

What a shit show. Big thanks for your help!

Thanks. I know Bitwarden can store passkeys, probably other password managers too.

I don’t seem to get a prompt to create a passkey anywhere. I tried logging out and back in on the mobile app, and logging into the site in Chrome on mobile.

Alas, it only worked once. This is incredibly lame on Sony’s part. I don’t see any links buttons to login via mobile, where does that show up for you?

Impeachment is the House voting to put the President on trial in the Senate. The Senate is then to hear the evidence and vote whether or not to remove the President from office. Trump was impeached twice but the Senate voted partisanly to keep him in office both times.

😑 Just installed chromium on desktop and login works with that. super lame.

Firefox mobile (android) and desktop (linux). I just tried a user agent plugin on desktop to try spoofing as chrome for linux and chrome for windows and still couldn’t login (though the error screen changed to just “something went wrong” with all the form fields gone and no code.
