I tried to use F2B and https://voipbl.org on a small 1 core + 1 GB RAM vm and it did not work out very well. I'm pretty sure iptables was crashing because there were so many IPS to block. Your mileage may vary. Probably nee

A spammer is going to get blocked and then have to send another letter ad infinitum. It's not financially feasible to do that. The respondent should also have evidence available to prove that the spammer is acting in bad faith (if they

I guess you could try to go for the tortious interference angle: I have a contract with the customer which involves interacting with them by email. Customer uses EmailCompany. EmailCompany unfairly blocks me from emailing customer. EmailCom

Not the person you’re replying to, but I’ve been running MIAB (mailinabox) for business and personal since 2016. I haven’t seen any major issues with deliverability but YMMV. You have to register with all the feedback loops. Once you do, yo

What problem did you have? I had an issue getting an RoR project running on NixOS, but it was just a lack of understanding. I needed Ruby 2.7.4 for the project, which is not available in current nixpkgs. Instead, I just imported the nixpkgs

I can only guess what you mean by this. If it's that people can't get enjoyment out of eating plant-based food, you're wrong. And if it's that people will have less enjoyable lives because they can't eat meat every

That's a great point. I can get a can of black beans for $0.50 (and dried black beans for even cheaper). I can get a chicken breast for ~$2. The black beans still net 98g of protein. But I also get an additional 500 calories more than

That’s not an argument against dedicating existing cropland to human food production. The GP isn’t talking about pasture and rangeland. Just the huge amount of cropland used to grow feed for animal ag. And while we’re at it, let’s reform th
