The other day I setup a postfix server in my VPS, which I intend to use with mailman3 to have some mailing lists. It was a bit of a pain to set up, but nothing too difficult. The worst part was setting up DKIM and SPF. The thing is, I const

That’s a problem that has already been solved in various ways by existing cryptocurrencies. For example, NANO was premined and then distributed via a faucet that required solving CAPTCHAs. Other cryptos just award holders more coins, or use

Until you’re forced to download the FB App Store for Facebook apps, the Epic Games store for theirs, the Google App Store for Google applications... It’s not true users who don’t want to side load have zero skin in the game. The entire ecos

I don’t think they really try. Tim Cook has pretty much accepted he isn’t Steve Jobs from the beginning, and takes little stage time.

What do you mean by “semi-custodial”? You’re not giving anyone the keys to your address. It’s nothing like a bank.

Some of this problems are (in my opinion) actually advantages. E-mail’s latency makes it so people write longer, thought out messages, instead of spamming very short messages. This makes for a different kind of communication, which is bette

What about the device you’re writing this from? I bet it was assembled by the same kind of labor. This isn’t limited to “Apple customers”, so don’t act like it is. It’s currently impossible to buy a good performing smartphone that has been

I don’t think heating quality or insulation is a problem for most people in central Spain.

Why is paying for a watch that collects your data weird to you? Your phone also collects your data and I bet you paid for it too. Also, the watch collecting your data is kind of the whole point.
