Crime, penetration, crime, penetration, crime, full penetration.

That's where I met him ;)

Sorry for my super late reply to the thread...

Doom 1 is the one that will always hold a place in my heart. The family PC back then only ran at 25MHz and Doom required 33 so my Dad would bring his work laptop home for me to play on. No headphones but it didn't matter, it was such an impactful experience for me as a kid and I'll always remember it fondly.

I got to meet Jon Romero a few years back too - they say you shouldn't meet your heroes but he is definitely an exception. Super nice dude and he blocked out a full hour on his calendar to just chat with me.

It's ok, just select "Accept all" - their 172 (!) partners are "trusted"

I think that's a great metaphor and great advice. When it dawned on me that I don't have to react it was actually quite relieving. It's never easy, but it doesn't have to be so hard.

It's a well intentioned law to protect child sex abuse victims and the law needs updating to cover this scenario. I think it's more an example of the ineptitude of the Irish government than anything.

Thats a completely different scenario and frankly, you're being dishonest putting that forward as an example of freedom of expression being blocked.

I've come across a few sites that require one upper case, one number and one symbol (from a short list). Not at least one of each, no no, precisely one of each. One site even forced the password length to be exact -_-

It states everyone else will wear a mask too and he will remove his during his deposition. Like it or not, the courts require in-person attendance.

I once had a user whose PC would freeze every time they tried to see their desktop. Like, you minimise something full screen and the PC would freeze for a few minutes and crawl while the desktop was in view.

Turns out they had more than 4,000 items on their desktop.

That day I learned where Windows puts icons that don't fit on the desktop (it stacks them all on the first icon's place, lol). And this wasn't even the problem they called about! They were just grumpily blaming Microsoft and working around it for years.

I guess my point is computer illiterate/belligerent people will find a way around the problems they cause and just blame something/someone else.

Just think about the potential, any combination of fruits could be a controller. This could spell the end of non-produce controllers.

Well then I'm wrong 🤷‍♂️ I guess Apple don't like him getting so big. Good luck to him, he'll need it.

What? No, obviously not. I'm just responding to the article you posted where they ask him not to use their trademarks. I've seen lots of 3rd party repair shops use the Apple logo which is what gets the legal team on you, I assume this is what's happening here.

He's acting like they're trying to shut him down whereas in reality they want him to stop using their trademarks.

This is only news because he's got a big social media following.

You can't use trrademarks of other companies without their permission, who knew 🤷‍♂️

RE email clients, I think in the personal space it's much more common to use the web app these days. I find the inverse is true for the business space. What desktop client do you use, out of interest? I've been a long time commercial Google user but want to move away and will likely switch to a desktop client along with that change

IP address and domain name can both be used for email reputation purposes. If you self host on a cloud provider that isn't strict enough on outbound spam, for example, then you might find your sending IP gets blacklisted by virtue of being in an IP range with spammers.

Oh god, I bet that UI looks at least ten years old D:

The speed sounds good though!

Though with 250k sites their IPs would at least have a sizable reputation, I was referring more to private email servers that aren't big enough to generate much of a reputation being auto-blocked by the Gmails and Outlooks of the world. Again I don't have experience with this, I'd just read somewhere that it's a growing problem with the big providers only granting any trust to email services above a certain size and therefore reputation.

I was actually referring to big email providers treating private email servers as spammy solely by virtue of the fact that they're not sufficiently known to them. I had just read somewhere that it's an increasing problem that may become self fulfilling. What I read might have been hyperbolic :)

Thanks for the read, I'm always interested to hear about people's experiences with self hosting.

How is your deliverability? I've heard private servers are often blocked outright by the big providers but don't have any first hand experience with it myself.
