@app4soft No. As explained below, Android 6 no longer receives security updates for WebView, meaning that it is impossible for Privacy Browser to provide a secure browsing experience on API < 24.
@app4soft I would be non-trivial to maintain a legacy version of Android System WebView that incorporated all the security fixes that Google no longer wanted to backport to unsupported versions of the OS.
From a big picture perspective, I would recommend that if you are using Android 6 and care at all about your privacy or security, you do not browse the internet with any browser or use any apps that connect to any web services in any way.
@app4soft For those who have any real security concerns, the oldest version of Android they currently ought to use under any circumstances is Android 11 (API 30).
Sorry for my question. But I have tested your browser and Mull browser, I had installed Ublock origin for Mull browser (Android). And I started to test both of them on youtube, the result Mull browser blocked all ads, but Privacy Browser couldn't. I still saw ads (short ads) on youtube while Mull browser blocked all ads completely. Can you explain the problem to me? Thank you very much for creating the good and privacy browser.
@jkambber I personally use NewPipe a lot, and I like the way Privacy Browser makes it easy to open a specific video in another app like NewPipe or SkyTube.
"Neanderthal tools might look relatively simple, but new research shows that Homo neanderthalensis devised a method of generating a glue derived from birch tar to hold them together about 200,000 years ago—and it was tough. This ancient superglue made bone and stone adhere to wood, was waterproof, and didn’t decompose. The tar was also used a hundred thousand years before modern humans came up with anything synthetic."
Remember those unwarranted warnings about juice jacking in airports from public phone charging kiosks at airports and other venues? The misinfo isn't just repeated by the FCC and other government agencies. Security snake oil companies like Osomprivacy (osomprivacy.com) also do it. This email promoting the completely unnecessary "privacy cable" even cites an article I wrote 2 months ago explaining why juice jacking is BS. When I pointed out to him that he was spreading misinfo, he only doubled down. I will be staying as far away from Osomprivacy as possible.

I see a backlash against this, at least in what people say on sites like Hacker News, if not in the decisions we actually make in our projects. For some of us, the ideal server-side web app is a single binary that can run on a single server using SQLite, and will likely never need to scale beyond that.

During #pridemonth, as always, we stand with the queer community.
Many queer & trans people use Tutanota to protect their privacy. During #Pride2023 we can all show our flag as a sign of solidarity and support - which is important right now. 🏳️🌈
Tutanota is also built for (and by) trans people & we will continue to fight for our rights to non-discrimination, privacy and freedom! Trans rights are human rights!
Support your local queer organizations and happy #pride 🌈
Once upon a time, there was a community called Little Details on LiveJournal. It was a place where fiction writers of all kinds could ask for help with their fact-checking and research. It was a huge, amazing resource before the collapse of LiveJournal took it down.
I recently decided to try resurrecting it on Dreamwidth. It's now open and ready for questions. Come check it out, and boost if you're so inclined!
@menelion Isn't live journal still a thing? I know basically no one uses it now, but I was able to read through someone's old posts only a couple years ago.
Médica de familia desde hace 25 años y activista, fue expedientada con una sanción de diez meses de suspensión de empleo y sueldo, acusada de dos supuestas irregularidades en la contratación de personal, extremo que ha desestimado la justicia.
#AudioMo At around 11:30 PM on June 1, 2011, my partner and I went to the 86th floor observatory of the Empire State Building. This is a (not particularly exciting) recording of us getting checked in and going from ground level to the 86th floor in an express elevator. Once we got there, it was very windy, so that part of the recording is pretty useless, and not included here. Recorded with an Olympus DM520 and Panasonic WM61 microphones.

Today, we have a #testimonial in Greek from Vagelis. While we don't have a translation of Vagelis’ testimonial, he sent us this message to accompany his recording: “I am sending you this message, so that you can see how much NVDA helps me in my daily life. I recorded a windows voice recorder to show that NVDA is helping me.” It means so much to us to have our users from around the world share their experiences with us. Thank you Vagelis for sharing how NVDA helps you in your daily life! #NVDA
Jonny Greenwood says he had to “unlearn” elements of Western music theory during the making of new album Jarak Qaribak: “There’s times where you have to really step away and not impose what you think is a major or minor chord on something” musicradar.com/news/jonny-gree…
#AudioMo In the late afternoon hours of August 5, 2010, we had a pretty gnarley summer thunderstorm coming through in Greensboro, NC. That's all well and good, but what made this funnier was the ice cream truck driving up and down the street playing Christmas tunes while all this was going on. When it played Silent Night, I lost it, because, well, it was anything but that. I recorded this with an Olympus DM520 and Audio Technica AT-822 hanging out of a bathroom window.
#AudioMo: I was going to #Hamleys with my wife and children on Jan 13 2019 when the road was literally inundated with motorbikes. We'd just left the underground station and were walking toward the shop. The noise here is amazing, and I'm glad I was able to capture it.
@x0 @MariahL Yeah. It has a little less fif when it has more air. Or, at least it did. No idea about it's state these days, though it's still around, I think. That was recorded in 2005. He put air in it the next day, but my recording of that is kind of broken.
In a few weeks I'll be talking about #XMPP and building open ecosystems, at FOSSY in Portland, Oregon: 2023.fossy.us/
As well as an entire track of XMPP talks, there will be a booth and various members from the XMPP community present. It's been a while since the last US XMPP get-together, so I'm looking forward to meeting lots of friendly faces, old and new 🙂

Hi everyone! Can anyone who depends on a screen reader read this for me and tell me if it works? I'm making a tutorial on how to make a Roguelike for my blind accessible game engine, so just wanna make sure it's in a good format! It will have informational and instructional content split up to hopefully make it easier for screen readers to find what is needed. Download .txt sample file here!
Hmm. If it's just text then I'd say just the usual stuff. Try to avoid ascii art. I'd even go as far as to say you don't need to explicitly point out how many lines are in each section. Just put a double line break and a heading for the next section and that should be good enough.
@talon Good point! Instead I think I'll just number each header, so that way if there is an issue it's as easy as saying "Instructions 9 doesn't make sense"
@pax @talon Remember this is very early and the main purpose is to gather feedback to make sure it's accessible and usable. But check it out here! ericbomb.itch.io/the-unseen-rp…

For added security, turn on Screen Lock by storing your password in the Tutanota app. Then go to Settings > Login and choose your Unlock method. When Screen Lock is enabled, you’ll be required to open Tutanota similar to how you would unlock your phone – by entering your PIN, password, Touch ID, or Face ID.
@ayeayerobot You can create custom inbox rules that will sort e-mails from specific senders into pre-selected folders. The feature also supports other fields like subject, recipient, header content etc. You can even enter regular expressions for the value!
@ayeayerobot I don't see the difference between manually adding the server's domain to a “contact group” and manually adding the server's domain to a RegExp, to be honest.
Anyway, perhaps @Tutanota might consider adding such a feature. 😉
@pixelcode That's the problem I have with most other email providers. I want to group servers together so that I can just add the server to a group and have my filter apply to that server automatically instead of creating an entirely new filter.
@ayeayerobot If you want to sort e-mails from different senders into the same folder, you'd have to enter a fitting RegExp or create multiple inbox rules, I guess.
Though, when receiving an e-mail you want to have sorted automatically, you can also click on the sender to create an inbox rule (the field type and value will be filled in for you).
let's take a moment to appreciate the absolute mastery of this guitar solo I was lucky enough to witness last weekend. As a secondary point...these stereo mic headphones sound pretty bloody great. 100 points if you can name the guitarist or the band lol.
@FreakyFwoof they're a PITA to deploy sometimes and I've noticed that Just Press Record has a bit of an on-and-off track record when it comes to detecting them but they do sound good.
@Friendica Support Wie kommt "Das Ende" in meinen Stream (Unterhaltungen Deiner Kontakte --> Neu Empfangen)? Bis gestern konnte ich weiter scrollen. Besteht da vielleicht ein Zusammenhang, dass ich diese Nacht für einige Stunden nur einen Beitrag in meinem Stream?
Ich kann das hier nicht nachvollziehen. Bitte versuche einmal ein komplettes Neuladen (Shift+Ctrl+R oder Ctrl+F5 oder ähnliches), um das Javascript neu zu laden.
Galaxy S10e, Android 12, and yes. Seeing the same thing. If you go into notifications then two-finger pull down again though to quick settings, brightness reads properly.
@FreakyFwoof here is something even stranger. if I flick down to change it to 0 percent, as you saw in the file it doesn't stay. if I go back into it, it is back to that strange number. if I doubletap and hold, and then slide to the right and then release it stays, but as I am sliding it, talkback isn't reading the new setting.
@FreakyFwoof see if you can change yours by just flicking down on it, and taking it to 0, then back out, and go back in and see if yours stays or if you have to do like I do and doubletap and hold, then slide to the left. you don't get sounds you are sliding it, nore do you hear a new percentage letting you know you are down to 0 percent or any percent for that matter.
@FreakyFwoof It's Samsung. I just picked up the nearest Android device which is a Nokia 5.3. It says "Brightness level, 0%, slider." Different control and it's accessible.
@FreakyFwoof @simon I really think it is a samsung issue this time as like I said in the audio file on the pixel 5 you double tap on where it says "brightness X%" and then you flick up or down to put it where you want. after you set it where you want, you just press the back button, and it will tell you what the brightness is in percentage, and you see it actually takes when you set it without having to doubletap and slide to the left or to the right.
@FreakyFwoof Have I ever said thanks for indirectly recommending the S10E? It is a very nice phone. I suspect you'll like the Zenfone as its successor if the S10E becomes unusable and you still want Android. It's .1 inches larger and the only nice feature it's missing is an SD card slot. But somehow running an old version of Android doesn't seem as bad as running an old iOS, and this one works well, for now.
@simon I love the thing. I think when it released it was ahead of it's time, just even now the formfactor is perfect, the functionality is all there. NFC, decent enough cameras, headphone jack, Micro SD, lesser speakers than modern iPhones but still you can hear stuff if you need to, I personally like the mics in it way better than my 13 pro when recording in stereo for example. What's not to like?
@FreakyFwoof What's your favourite recorder for it? I've been meaning to do a microphone comparison. I have way too many old and slightly-less-old Android devices lying around.
@simon I'm using HiPixel audio recorder. It's free with ads, or remove ads for not very much. I used it free since March of 22, but this year paid to remove ads because I like it. The interface has a few unlabeled buttons but easy enough to get around once you know what you're looking for. Can record in flac too, which is great for me. I use it for long recordings at gigs, outside, wherever. And of course it can do stereo.
@FreakyFwoof Too bad about 24, but recording in FLAC and having an SD card in is an especially nice combination. Now we just need some way to get binaural / wearable audio into the phone.
@simon I just use my ambeo headset with the s10e, works fine. I'm using Anker Lightning to USB-C adapter. Not all Androids are made equal as you know,which means that some phone just won't support this. Samsungs do, as theyh have a real driver and audio stack, as I hear it.
Easily make brilliant Spatial Audio recordings with SonicPresence® binaural microphones. Compatible with iPhone, Android, Mac/PC, and XLR devices. Ideal for musicians, content creators, and filmmakers. Designed and built in New York City.
@queenslight @FreakyFwoof @simon This seems like one of those things I briefly looked at and went, oh, ok, another one of these, and didn't look too closely at it. Does anyone know what microphone capsules they actually use?
Tech Specs and audio demos on the SP15C (for 150 USD), can be found here:
sonicpresence.com/products/sp1… Would I buy them over the Ambeos which I bought for $50 USD though? Considering said USBC to lightning adapter went down in price (link below), I myself would not bother, unless someone didn't have the Ambeos at the start. a.co/d/a3JLoJb
@queenslight @FreakyFwoof @simon Yeah. I saw that, but naturally, it didn't really tell me what I wanted to know. I didn't really expect it to, either.
True. That info might be only able to be gotten from them directly, or a YouTuber who's reviewed it thoroughly (though most reviewers seem to be focused on the other mics mentioned because of the price being cheaper.
With that being said, wishing more YouTubers would actually 'use' them.
@queenslight @FreakyFwoof @simon The self-noise of the Primo M272 capsules is significantly better, but you'd need to convert them to a smartphone thing if you care about that.
Professional sound on a shoestring budget. Primo EM272 microphone capsules are affordable, ultra low noise, highly sensitive, omnidirectional capsules that compete with microphones costing thousands of dollars. US Shipping Only.
"Year-to-date, 5.3% of the Earth’s surface has experienced average temperatures that are a local record high. In addition, none of the Earth’s surface has been record cold year-to-date."
@ppatel Rostov is also in the south of Russia, which is a slightly different Russia than Moscow. Hence, potentially, the lack of resistance! I would not celebratethis! :)
