I can't stop rolling my eyes at all those big promises.

I would love to know more about how this got discovered and figured out. I can imagine some sysadmin pull their hair out, thinking they've got some infected system, but then find out it was some bug with their terminal emulator.

I still have my Windows 95 installation floppies. It was a phenomenal operating system at the time, but I don't miss it one bit.

LOL When you spend 8 hours a day around folks and become friends with them, it's natural to miss them when they leave. It's OK if you don't have any meaningful relationships with your co-workers, but, to me, that sounds unhea

It's a shame the Indiana one is blurry. I wish I had a better one to put up there.

Apologies if you already know this, but pipelining has existing in SMTP for decades now. You can see if an SMTP server supports it when using EHLO (instead of HELO). Trying 74.125.202.26... Connected to smtp.google.com. Escape chara

I like what the author is saying, but I want everyone to keep in mind that how we send email is mutually exclusive from how we read/create email. You can solve issues related to one while not dealing at all with the other. For example,

I've never heard of a company that wants their employees to move slower.

Was it a donation? Or was it an investment?

Actually, it was the other way around. Cingular bought AT&T Wireless, which was _not_ part of the original AT&T at the time. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT%26T_Wireless_Services

Looks like SimpliSafe became aware of this problem as far back as at least 2019 and made a blog post about it. https://simplisafe.com/blog/jam-detection-update

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC data lives in TXT records that must stay there forever; otherwise, you'll have problems delivering your email.

I remember attempting to run Windows NT 4, but it lacked a lot of hardware support. Windows 2000 Professional fixed a lot of that. I consider Windows 2000 to be the first stable AND usable (for a desktop) version of Windows.

That would be me! I remember the times before September 11, 2001, when I could show up at the airport about 30 minutes before my flight, get through security (which was locally operated -- no TSA), get my boarding pass at the gate, and boar

I'm sure there will be some good books coming out about it in the next couple of years that will shed light on what actually happened.

I think "lucky" is the better word here. He was lucky because he was able to get all of his money out of the bank while he could. Maybe he knew something was happening before others? Maybe he was just able to move faster? ¯\_(ツ)_&

I would love to see the capitalists held accountable for the way they treat their workers, but I believe their decisions are primarily dictated by profits, regardless of what they say. Hard questions can surely be asked, but once you weed t
