MarkG<p>I got some call from a random number. It was a guy who claimed my number had dialed him. I assured him I had made no such call. He didn't believe me. He felt I was a telemarketer, and as such, invited me to meet him so I could get the "beating I deserve". I politely declined his offer and bid him adieu.</p><p>But, I share his displeasure with telemarketers. And I note that frequently they come from what appears to be local numbers, even if it's clearly from an overseas caller. So, I do wonder if my number was actually portrayed by a telemarketer to this gentleman. Does anyone know how such a thing may work? And what can be done to prevent such a possibility?</p><p>I checked my phone's settings, and found that my phone is encrypted. But, I also found, under "credential storage", that a whack of oddball entities are listed as having "trusted credentials" (see image -- it goes on much longer than the screenshot). Anyone else have a similar list? I note there is the option to "clear credentials", but I don't know if this is wise to do.</p><p>I use LineageOS 22.2 (Android 15).</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tech</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>android</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/lineage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lineage</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/credentialmanagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>credentialmanagement</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/telemarketers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>telemarketers</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/phone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>phone</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Mobiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mobiles</span></a></p>

éric 🚲 🇪🇺 :emacs:<p>Rummaging around (for an unrelated reason) I found my old Google Nexus 9 tablet (with keyboard). Coincidentally, it turns out that I could actually make good use of it in the very near future so I tried to get it going again. What else are weekends for? 😉</p><p>Well, after struggling with Google and its "play" store for several hours, I gave up fighting Google. Instead, I successfully restored the tablet by installing Lineage OS (version 16 aka Android v8). The Google apps did not install for some reason but who cares? I have F-droid, termux, muPDF, openssh, and Emacs!

DigitalInfinity<p>Ich habs endlich getan! Ich hab heute mein Samsung Galaxy S10e umgeflasht auf <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/lineageos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lineageos</span></a> <br>Also eigentlich hab ich n baugleiches umgeflasht, weil ich n Angsthase bin.<br>Klar: rtfm und step-by-step aber... Ohne Probleme...<br>Aber jetzt hab ich hier n Handy, das 2023 vom Hersteller aussortiert wurde mit einem Android 15 drauf. Und das rennt! Google-frei... Ohne nervige "we want all your data"-Popups... <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>privacy</span></a> <br>Dachte, irgendwas wird nicht gehen oder so aber nein. Tut alles bisher... Alle Messenger schon umgezogen, jetzt noch die anderen Apps und dann lege ich das "alte" Handy zur Seite...</p><p>Bin jetzt echt n bisschen baff, dass das so gut läuft.</p><p>Werft eure alten Handys nicht weg!</p><p><a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/freesoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>freesoftware</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/fsfe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fsfe</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/upcyclingandroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>upcyclingandroid</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/lineage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lineage</span></a></p>
