Glad to see we still work on Lynx!

Now all I can think of still to test is my G4 on Tiger. Once I'm home…

If TenFourFox no longer works, at least you know you can use Lynx now!..

The connection of this website has been verified. No Certificate Transparency information was supplied by the server.

Your connection to deskthority.net is encrypted using a modern cipher suite. Further this page includes other resources which are not secure. These resources can be viewed by others while in transit, and can be modified by an attacker to change the look of the page.

I have the https:// at the beginning of the URL, but no green lock appears. It just looks like a piece of paper. I am using Chrome.

Google has this to offer on the subject: Your connection to the site is encrypted, but Google Chrome has found something on the page that could be unwanted images or ads. We suggest you don't enter private or personal information on this page.

So any page with images (which is most of them) is not to appear secure to Chrome?

Edit: I DO get the green lock on the spy.php page, but almost all other pages do not have it.

I knew this would happen :)

@elecplus this is normal on a forum where some sources could come from external (not encrypted) locations (eg: images). The bottom line is that THIS site is encrypted and all crucial data is secure.

And this is exactly why the WHOLE internet should switch to HTTPS

Google does not want people use the bot.
:o

Instead, people should use their Google Docs.

Do you endorse DuckDuckGo? I've been using that for longer than I realized ducks were a thing on the Internet.

I'd like to use it more, but it rather sucks compared to google. :(

The key is to use it by default. And when you don't get what you want, add !g to your search term to run a secured session with Google. Or !gi for Google Images specifically. I find it easier to use than Google itself, let alone the tinfoily sense of anonymised goodness!

It's not that, it's google options such as only show results from last year/month/week/day which I use frequently to filter out old crap.

Ducks are like chickens. Their balls are tucked up by their spine. Lookup how to make a capon, you will see what I mean :twisted:

wondering if using a 4096 dh key would bring the key exchange to 100. Haven't tried it yet.

We've switched to auto-renewing Let's Encrypt certificates for SSL.

How hard was that to get set up, if you don't mind me asking...

Nice! Do you plan on proxying images/external sources, so that all traffic is encrypted?

It's trivial, check out acme.sh: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh
