You were already paying $2/mo for one of the "legacy" GandiMail premium 50 GB mailboxes? Yeah I can see how this looks much worse from that perspective. Your price is going to triple if you switch to the new premium mailbox.

These docs look like they apply to the legacy mailboxes, check the article about MFA and you'll see how limited it is. This is the biggest thing I hope they fix with the new system. In my Gandi portal I don't yet have an option to

Probably no reason, they said forwards will remain free. Hopefully that includes aliases as well, I've got a wildcard alias that is awesome to use. How do you know they're adding Sieve support? The email just says "Better ant

Yes - when the first wave of emails hit EU users several months ago, I complained on HN that I'd be fine with paying for GandiMail as long as I had 6 months notice or whatever. The email I got today was pretty clear and no-BS, it says

They changed the formula for Pyrex glass many years ago and the new formula is inferior to the old one. Somehow I doubt the current incarnation of these companies has much at all to do with their origin.

NorthernUI (a mod for Oblivion) allegedly can add full gamepad support, they have a lite version that does this without altering the vanilla UI: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/48577

It's not humor in general that's disliked, it's seeing the same few dozen tired references that it's seen as normal to repeat ad nauseum on more social media type sites like reddit. That said, Office Space is my favorite

Kotaku does not really belong on HN. They didn't even mention teddit or libreddit.

Yes, that's exactly how it works, and yes, I install my banking app this way. It's not an issue from my perspective but I can see why Google doesn't like it. I don't have a Google account and am unable to obtain Play Sto

Looks great! Evokes "Thunderfox" moreso than "Thunderbird" but that appears to be the point, and it works well. I especially like how the round envelope fold is contrasted with the background enough to be immediately rec

Discord has these exact same problems, arguably worse because the echo chamber develops behind closed, un-indexable doors and crawlers can't archive any content before the moderators censor it. If clearnet can't see it, it's

I think the future of the Internet will contain a lot of "Join <expired Discord invite link> to download!" so I hope the Reddit model prevails. Discord communities are regressive in that they're not indexed by search en

Yeah this seems wrong, from the link it appears they definitely WILL delete YouTube videos: > Starting later this year, if a Google Account has not been used or signed into for at least 2 years, we may delete the account and its contents

It's decent competition for sure. Significantly higher spec versus Deck on paper but they are pushing the envelope for powerful x86 machines in this form factor. Seems like you can melt the battery extremely quickly if you try, since

Nintendo would like you to think so. Depends on jurisdiction I suppose. Not in very many places. Emulating other machines isn't illegal, Switch is no different.

This is the reasonable middle ground, I think. No outright refusal, nor blind acceptance. Instead: separation of powers and reasonable barrier to entry. Dumbphone + stationary desktop PC would be much better for kids than a smartphone + tab

How does namespacing work on IA? "archive.org/details/htewypc" is a pretty conspicuous URL.

Cat's out of the bag on this one. You will never get all the guns back, not without running a very real risk of instigating civil war. Ms. Jackson Lee thinks the real cause of the problem is "guns, guns, guns" - I say it&#x27

I'm almost finished with "My Tiny Life: Crime and Passion in a Virtual World" which is largely set within the murky unreality of LambdaMOO. I'm not sure how exactly the timelines match up, but the book definitely contain

I can also decide to walk out of the room, check my phone, ignore the ads, etc The problem with this part of your argument is that it ignores free will, and conflates morals with ethics. Blocking ads is a moral imperative for me, because I

Tell everyone you know about Firefox, uBlock Origin, and SponsorBlock. Get them to install and use it. Work an IT job? Push ad blockers out to any customers who don't outright refuse 'em. If everybody blocks the ads, advertisers w

I thought blogspam meant low-effort, SEO-optimized articles found on websites trying to sell you stuff. Small opinionated blog posts referring to other blogs are not really blogspam although I can see the comparison in an offhand sort of wa

This is not a sensible or technically sound thing to do. It is purely irrational. Win7 is already stuck on Chrome 110/111(?). You are not gaining much by doing this, and are assuming significant risk. Even if specific portions can be q

This is a very fair question - it's worth noting that appealing Google's decision to include you on the GSB list can be done without a Google account. The other stuff the author does with Google Search Console isn't necessary

This was my first thought as well. The ELIZA I am familiar with is nowhere near sophisticated enough to have this sort of effect. The article says "ELIZA, the name given to a chatbot that uses OpenAI's ChatGPT" I guess collid

Ctrl+F "content" -> 31 matches. I disagree with your diction which makes me doubt the overall veracity of intent here but good luck with your efforts to promote differentiation.

Yeah, no, I agree with you. For other, less blatantly slipshod efforts, run by less blatant grifters, it might have been a faux pas to immediately point and laugh. Assume good-faith, and all that. But for this? Cryptobros running bookkeepin
