I'm trying out Purely Mail. Unlimited email addresses across unlimited custom domains.
I have a cool setup where I have setup an email account at service@service.mydomain.tld, but it's setup as a catchall for *@service.mydomain.tld (and allows gmail-style tagging). This means I can fill out service forms by inventing addresses on the fly like LemonadeStand+Signup@service.mydomain.tld and the email shows up in one unified inbox, the subject line will include [LemonadeStand], and the message will have the flag 'Signup'.
Too true. Since the Republicans can't organize a speaker of the house at the moment, I imagine we'll see a lot of pie-in-the-sky style legislation come through Senate Democrats in the next few days. It will look great to have a bunch of action on the books to please their most extreme liberal elements for the next election cycle, but with the deadlock in the house, there's little change any of it would become effective law.
They should do something … but do it quietly, so you don't have to hear about it again?
Discussing the issue with parents doesn't count as doing something? Have you considered that they are doing things and of the various avenues they're pursuing, the part that hurts most is explaining the problem to their own parents? People who should have been on their side from the start?
And what exactly to you propose they do? It seems like the current system is designed to exhaust prolatariat to the point where action is too difficult, and then crush anyone who tries. At least they're posting memes to keep the memory of a better world alive.
I work at a Managed Service Provider for IT and we have a ton of GPO policies that are labeled "VIP", which is internally understood as 'there's no reason for this policy to exist except that someone in power demanded we create it'. Many of those policies are dialed down to a single or small handful of people.
Yes. Absolutely 100%. Canonical has a pretty solid track record of acting like a corporation.
Can't speak for @StarkillerX42@lemmy.ml, but I was happy with Ubuntu when they first started - they took the best of open-source, put it in a nice package and then put money into improving it. It's just over the years they've drifted away from that and slowly have been replacing stuff with their own in-house stuff. At this point, they're sorta Microsoft light. Maybe harmless today, but only because they want to look better than the competition.
If that alone weren't sufficient reason to be skeptically pessimistic, enshitification is trending, all corporations seem to feel that now is the time to turn the screws. Can't blame a guy for expecting bad news generally in this environment.
Between Microsoft's open source Vulcan enhancements and Valve's everything else enhancements both being contributed upstream, "Wine required" doesn't have quite the same punch it used to.
Just get a bulb pre-flashed work either Tasmota or ESPHome. (ESPHome integrates well into home assistant, Tasmota is otherwise a bit more well rounded, but they're both great)
I'm pretty sure @randon31415@lemmy.world was trying to create a simplified example. To include a generic autistic tech we can modify the example to "40 people making 10 things an hour. A clever autistic person comes along and writes a computer script that improves efficiency. Now 19 people make 20 things an hour, the autistic tech makes 5 times as much as one of the original people and has the specialty job of maintaining the script, the business owner lays off 20 people (4x of their pay compensates the tech) and the business owner pockets the other 16x as extra profit"
The 19 people still employed don't get any more pay for their extra efficiency, nor do they get any more time off.
The 20 people who were let go at no fault of their own now apparently don't get to eat or live or have any kind of security until they reeducate themselves to a new line of work.
The autistic tech doesn't understand where their additional pay comes from, but is happy to get rewarded well for their good work.
If questioned about why the 20 people needed to be let go, the business owner will blame the scripts efficiency instead of their own decision to pocket the money.
However, to answer your question directly: it does not matter how many new jobs or specialty positions are created - if the net pay available to workers is reduced and the net jobs workers can fill are reduced, some workers are destined to get the short straw.
I love how he implies multiple times that his own pay increase was 'based on performance', implying that he deserves it because he's done well, when workers' collective performance is literally the metric his performance is measured by.
I think Ubuntu is a for-profit company. I think System76 is a for-profit company. As a rule, companies tend to respect other companies in ways they don't respect people.
I think it's more likely that System76 will rebase to Debian than Ubuntu kick them off, but if Ubuntu really starts pulling out the brass tacks, I don't think System76 will show any loyalty.
In other words, I think Ubuntu benefits from counting all the Pop!_OS users as part of the Ubuntu family (at least statistics wise), that they'd be killing a golden goose by trying to evict them, even though they'd obviously prefer them to use Snaps.
Many phone/cell providers provide a method to send voicemails to a third party, if you setup call forwarding (busy or unanswered, don't set unconditional) for reference, this page covers how to do that for T-Mobile
Ahh, so this isn't a processing issue it's a data access issue.
Frankly, if you can't access the raw data of your voicemail inbox, probably no third party developer can too. This means that the only way to implement such a tool would to be to work with the voicemail provider. If they're a for-profit company, they probably have no incentive to make the data available unless there's a big moneybag involved somewhere in the exchange. That's probably why no such tool exists.

I hope this pays off your student loans.
