   The mail protocol is plain text so it’s not difficult to save emails as individual files. I had such setup some years ago for a company. Emails were stored in one folder per week, each email in its own subfolder with attachments extracted a

   Taxing the super-rich might be admirable from a jealousy point of view. But I do not think it will change any government spending capacity. Some numbers for the US. The richest 400 people owned a total of 4.5 Trillion USD in 2023 [0]. The U

   There is also something like this with belts? I wear my trouser belt always in the same direction and remember (being much younger) once someone said it was the female way. Never give it much thought now but seeing this article I remember t

    (2022) 'Native GPS precision/resolution in Civilian mode is 30m; a 5 minute average can improve that to 5m'. My iphone 15 mostly shows an error of 15 - 20 m inside and 8 - 12 m when I go outside. Never tested staying outside

    No battery, so I assume it is rather power hungry? The Sony solution seems much more appropriate for walking around freely (and no noise). Neither solution really captivates me, even though I am currently in Asia with a heatwave. But then a

    I assume this script runs on the server. I was building Go projects on the server as well, a vps where I have several things running. At some point I noticed that larger builds severely effected the other websites. So now I build locally an
