Fact Check: Real Photo of Osama Bin Laden Meeting with George W. or George H.W. Bush?
“Oh dear!!! Who's on the left?” a post on X exclaimed about the alleged photo of a clandestine Pentagon meeting with the terrorist mastermind.
We've updated our TROM Videos too. Now Peertube has more cool features like the storyboard - you can hover with your mouse over the seekbar of a video and see thumbnails. Pretty nice!
We are currently generating the thumbnails for all of our videos (may take a while to finish), but any new video uploaded from now one will have this feature.
You can also add chapters to your videos and more. Awesome job @PeerTube !
From now on we will post a "must watch" documentary from VideoNeat on our Peertube's homepage - videos.trom.tf so make sure you check that out and subscribe to our VideoNeat channel - videos.trom.tf/c/videoneat/vid…
This year we will try to focus on the content for our TROM Videos and bring new creators, plus create new videos ourselves too.
So please, if you can, help us here tromsite.com/donate/ - we only need 160 more people to donate 5 Euros a month to support TROM forever.

Updated our TROM Files to Nextcloud 28. Biggish update. We had to remove the following apps tho, since they were not compatible: files_3d, files_markdown, metadata, video_converter, extract. Whenever these are available for Nextcloud 28 we will enable them.
Take advantage of our TROM Files files.trom.tf - you get 10GB of storage space and access to better tools than Google's Drive. All trade-free.

Fact Check: Male Spiders Sometimes Use 'Random Trash' to Attract Mates, Hoping Females Won't Notice
"Giving gifts tends to increase males’ likelihood of mating," a spider scientist said.
In this situation it's so absurd that people have to buy the forest to keep it alive or pretend to be hunters. It shouldn't be like that at all, it shows how rigid and fucked this system is. Carpathia is awesome organization and they came up with such creative ideas, but it's sad that in order to keep something alive you have to buy it. And you don't buy it for yourself, that's actually will benefit everyone. absurd... #fucktrade

But I fully agree that scrambled PIN pads should be more common, that helps a lot against someone just glancing over.

in reply to Nils • • •P.S. I very much agree that it comes down to your own personal threat model. E.g. I haven't bothered having a password lock on my phone since the dawn of smart phones, and very grateful for all the time and hassle that saves me. But then I hardly ever use a phone, and don't have anything critical like email connected to it, so the risks involved are rather less that for most people

in reply to Rokosun • • •It seems only somewhat more secure than gesture unlock.
It might trip-up video analyzis or surveillance unfamiliar with it, but two captures seem like enough to have a very high probability of identifying the commonality. Depending on user behavior, a single observation could be enough.
The best option, I think, would be some HMD as the sole active display.

in reply to Rokosun • • •I wonder though, how many videos would be enough to crack your number and location down. Maybe even as low as two, if you overlap the pictures and see where are the numbers right before unlocking...

Yeah if you got recorded on video and there are multiple instances of it then you might be doomed. Randomly spacing the numbers each time could make it harder maybe, but IDK..... It's not perfect for sure.....

in reply to Rokosun • • •The AOSP-based custom OS GrapheneOS has PIN scrambling, which makes these attacks a bit harder and also improved fingerprint unlock security.
Highly recommend looking into the project because it has many amazing security features on top of AOSP, and is one of the few custom OSes with actual security researchers developing significant improvements.

I'm aware of GrapheneOS, and I'd definitely try it out if I can get my hands on a pixel 🙃
