Using an SMTP relay sounds like a great idea as it would cut down on the number of moving pieces the home sysadmin needs to worry about when running a mail server. Does Mailgun support TLS between my outbound SMTP and the Mailgun relay? And

Generating more interest in the concept of running your own mail server is a great thing. The four part Ars Technica series on the topic [1] is the best and most comprehensive guide to setting up a mail server. I think a more hands on appro

Cool, glad you mentioned this! I've used namecheap for a while and never noticed this feature! This will save me the trouble of having an outside service for DDNS. For anyone else looking for this feature, log in to namecheap.com and c

The blog posts, comments, and tweets aren't really what provided the direct pressure for him to resign. Far more likely that corporate partners, donors, etc. called the remaining board members or anyone else of any influence and told t

I was disappointed to find my new Lenovo Ideapad similarly loaded down with crap. Spent a few hours just installing nonsense.

The article says that "privacy is a fundamental right". Are you saying that anonymity is also a fundamental right?

I was tentative because the direction that two centuries of case law has taken the bill of rights often surprises me. Thanks for the link. I googled for a bit to see if there had been a decision by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court,

Is DD-WRT really a secure alternative to stock firmware at this point? It seems as though development has stalled out on it. For example, I have an Linksys E2000. The "recommended" build on the DD-WRT wiki page is 14929, which is

I had similar problems with Tomato on an E4200 -- it would reboot itself every few hours (noticeable when the wifi would disappear for a minute or two!). My guess is there was some kind of lockup, but a watchdog had enabled to reboot it whe

This makes sense! Can you give a pointer on how to set up the alerts you mentioned? (home sysadmin here)

DX sold me a 2 amp USB charger that fried my raspberry pi upon first use. I won't take that chance again.

Agreed, this works great for notes, lists, etc. I keep notes in text files in my Dropbox -- on desktop, I use vim or SciTE, and on iOS I use the PlainText app to read/edit them.

The trademark applications are for Mod, Windows Mod, Office Mod, and Microsoft Office Mod. This makes "Mod" look like the new consumer brand to replace the less favored "Live". Speaking of branding, whatever happened to

In #5, Schneier says "For public-key cryptography, 2048-bit keys have same sort of property; longer is meaningless." Back in September, he issued a new public key of 4096 bits[1]. 1. https://news.ycombinator.com/it

Why isn't the advance button be in a fixed position? Why make the advance button's position dependent on some other dynamic element, like the text length in this case? This makes going through the slideshow very tedious. Fascinati

I am also using the iOS Mail app. I tested using an outlook.com account -- no leak. Then I tested using an account on a personal email server that I set up recently using iRedmail on a VPS -- it leaked! It showed both my external ISP IP add

Another annoyed iPhone reader here. Normally the Safari "Reader" button would light up in the URL bar and I'd use that to read the article without distraction, but it didn't for some reason (content not properly marked up in the HTML?).

Jobs' harsh criticism reminded me instantly of the 2003 email from Bill Gates trashing Windows Movie Maker, the Microsoft.com website, etc. [1] It also reminded me of presentations I've given that have "gotten out of hand". I've found it's

You may or may not consider it a "major next-gen UI", but I'd throw Ubuntu's Unity in that list as well. While I'm on the topic, I love the way Unity consolidates system bar, app title bar, and app menu bar. This single screen real estate s
