You're first point is well made, however I don't have any other choice when I communicate with an Apple user. Everything is so siloed these days. The lack of federated protocols harms us all. You're second point is irrelavant

RCS is a carrier standard. It does not support end-to-end encryption. No one is suggesting that Apple stop allowing Apple users to communicate via iMessage. WhatsApp and friends are not baked in as the default messaging app in the domina

They are #2 globally, behind Samsung. 15.2% of the global smartphone market to Samsung's 20.8%. They are #1 in the US, 47% to Samsung's 34%. That is a dominant position. Apple would be wise to avoid the appearance of abusing t

There is nothing stopping Apple from implementing RCS. They can continue to go their own way with Apple devices, and support RCS for interop with non-Apple devices and for users who would rather not route their messaging through Apple. Tha

There's plenty of blame to go around, the regulators have failed.

God I hope so. Burning fuel for nothing but bureaucratic red tape seems horribly unethical.

It works for us. Our daughter's room is probably the most decorated part of our our home. My wife loves gardening, but has found new hobbies. She doesn't share my enthusiasm for minimalism, but she has embraced it and is also h

I am in my 30's, am married, have a first grader, I love to travel but don't get the chance much these days. I agree with your points, different tokes for different blokes, just wanted to share my experience.

I have drastically minimalized over the last couple years. I sold my stupid big house, now I rent. I got rid of most of my stuff. I have minimal furniture, empty walls, I started biking everywhere instead of driving. I am much happier.

100%, maybe Apple should be compelled to support standards when they choose not to for anticompetitive reasons.

The destination carrier determines the maximum allowable size an MMS attachment can be: Tier 1 Carriers -- Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T -- all MMS content up to about 1 MB. Tier 2 Carriers allow MMS content of 600 KB. Tie

A /80 prefix is equivalent to 65536 ipv4 Internets. Not so brute-forceble.

I run BIND on the router at each site I administer. The router gets a real domain name and is the authoritative nameserver for that domain. isc-dhcp-server is configured to assign a publicly routable IPv6 to each client, and update the BI

I do that too, but the masked emails are more disposable.

Fastmail is fantastic, so glad to be off gmail. I've been enjoying the masked email feature. There really isn't much competition in this space, fastmail get's it right: clean, simple, fast. I wish I could self host something

Syncthing is p2p, a relay is supported for when both clients are behind NAT on different networks. It supports local network discovery, but the use case is different. It's for syncing files between your devices, not one off transfers.

SLAAC works well and wouldn't without a >= 64 bit subnet. In a typical /64 assignment, the ipv6 equivalent of the 32-bit ipv4 public ip is the 64-bit prefix , I think squaring the address space is appropriate.

While I generally hate comcast, xfinity has good ipv6 support. It may be an issue with your router configuration.

If you can modify the firmware to rw this region then you can modify the housekeeping code to leave that it alone until there is no more free space. Furthermore some reserved regions nay be completely unused until you have failing cells, wh

Greetings fellow Hoosier. It has been my experience as well at west coast conferences, some people think we are all from some redneck farm in the middle of nowhere. I think the close mindedness says more about them than us.

Sure, but the sim doesn't have access to the main CPU, main memory, storage, or sensors (without help from an app which can just as easily leak data without help from the sim) I fail to see how it compromises security any more than an

I think you misunderstood my point. I meant that the percent of deaths understates the suffering of our species.

There are fates worse than death, and so much in-between.

You can configure postfix to relay emails to certain domains through a 3rd party SMTP service like SES. The MS domains give all of us the same problems, there is no other solution.

I do too, gmail is not a problem at all, but I have had the same static IP on AWS for about a decade, reverse DNS is mandatory for deliverability. My problem with Gmail is it is difficult to filter SPAM coming from their servers. My biggest
