Slowing down enough is the same thing than being unavailable. Imagine someone is sending you 1000 text messages per minute from different numbers all over the world. Your phone handles it fine but you have to manually read every single message to check if it’s spam or something important. By the time you reach that one real message where your crush asked if you wanna hang out, it’s way too late and they already asked someone else.

I’ve had a good experience with mailcow. It’s not the most lightweight tho, and spins up quite a few containers.

Obviously I’m not a lawyer but I don’t see what law they could use to shut it down. All it’s doing is accessing publicly available data via a proxy. It’s not like it’s exploiting Instagram somehow.

If they wanna stop it, they can do what Twitter did and start requiring an account to see almost anything. Personally I suspect Meta is slowly going towards that.

Awesome! Got it running and seems to work well. Also I love the CLAUDE.md file you got there in the repo 🐈

Most browser compatibility issues come from JavaScript, not HTML/CSS. Unless you want to support ancient/dead browsers (like Internet Explorer or non-HTML5 browsers), it’s very likely there won’t be any issues.

MDN has a compatibility table for every HTML tag and CSS property. For a simple static site I would just manually check there.

Sadly I don’t see what they could have done. I don’t think international law would have allowed them to intercept the plane even if they had wanted to. It would have been a very interesting situation tho if the plane had a problem and would have been forced to make an emergency landing in one of the three countries.

Sure, but I would still argue the bathroom light switch should be located, I don’t know, next to the bathroom door? And most definitely there shouldn’t be two totally useless switches there.

I don’t think I would like to work for a company that struggles this much with light switches…

I think I was asked this very question in an interview once. I think I answered something along the lines of ‘If you have a light switch like that here in the office, the first thing I would recommend is calling in an electrician to change and move the switch to the correct room. Why would you have a light switch that controls a light in a different room and apparently two switches that do nothing??’

Got the job.

Seems they updated it to ports 1024 - 65535 which is only marginally better. Meaning someone at Nintendo put some thought into it and still decided that this is the best guidance they can give…

The level of categorization they do is kinda crazy. Looking for some barefoot woman wearing jeans? (241 images) Or maybe interested in churches in Ecuador photographed in 2007? Of course they have that! (45 images)

One of the first settings I change on any new system is to make the cursor green. Seems to help enormously with this.

I’m not in the loop about dot world moderation policies, but I think it’s good to try to move communities away from the largest instances regardless. That way one of the large instances going offline one day won’t have as big of an impact.

I chose one from this list: https://github.com/forwardemail/awesome-mail-server-providers?tab=readme-ov-file#vps-and-dedicated-mail-server-provider-comparison-table

I recently set up the whole stack (Postfix, Dovecot, OpenDKIM) on a VPS. I wanted to do it from home, but my ISP won’t provide a static IP or open ports 25/465/587 for consumer customers, no exceptions.

It took me about two days to get everything working, but most of that was because I went in with very little knowledge of how email even actually works. If you’re looking for a learning experience, I’d say go for it. If you just want a working email setup quickly, I wouldn’t recommend it.

I haven’t noticed any deliverability issues so far. Just make sure you have SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and PTR records all set correctly from the start.

Finally took the time to watch the first season of HBO’s The Last of Us. I watched the first episode on Friday evening and then binged the rest over the weekend.

I never played the game, but I know the basics of its plot. I liked the story for the most part, and I think the amazing cast saved it on parts where the writing was a little meh. I’m not a big fan of the ending tho, seemed very rushed.

I’m still contemplating whether to watch season two next, given it has received far less favorable reviews.

The Shining

Android wants to automatically add a “.” to the end of a sentence if I double space too fast

If using GBoard, that can be disabled in settings. I don’t know anyone who actually uses that feature, I don’t know why it’s enabled by default.

Depends on how strict the rules are. If I’m allowed to grab my camping gear, theoretically I could last a long time. But strictly speaking, it’s not something I can just grab on the way out, and obviously I would need to pack it too.

Assuming the first scenario, the next immediate issue would be water. It’s very hot here right now, so I would need to find a reliable source of water, and fast. Realistically, initially my only option would be to drink from lakes. Without a water filter, there’s always a risk of contamination, but I could start boiling my drinking water once I get a fire going.

The second issue would be food. I know nothing about hunting, and I’m a very inexperienced fisher too, plus I don’t have any gear for it. My only options would be berries, and maybe trying to make a crude fishing rod out of a tree branch and string and hoping to get lucky. I don’t trust myself enough to touch any mushrooms unless it’s an absolute last resort.

In the long run, I think food would be the biggest problem. Most likely I would starve to death long before winter. If I somehow managed to sort out the food situation, I could try to find a protected spot for the winter and gather tons of firewood. My thickest sleeping bag is only rated for -10°C, and it gets as low as -30°C at least once each winter here, but with a fire and a sheltered spot, I think it would be survivable. But then again, food would be an even bigger issue during winter.

6:30 Alarm
6:30 - 6:45 Check messages, news, weather forecast, Lemmy, etc.
6:45 Actually get up
6:45 - 7:20 Shower, get dressed, eat something light, brush teeth, leave the house
7:20 - 8:00 Walk, ride bike/e-scooter, or drive to the office, depending on the weather and mood

During the summer, if it’s warm outside, I skip the shower and instead pack my swimwear to take a quick dip and swim at a beach located on the way to the office. During the day, the beach is normally packed with way too many people, but at 7am there’s usually no one there and especially not any screaming children.
