I still use the Kermit client almost daily. Enterprise network gear still has serial ports (most still defaulted to 9600 baud!) and have an old laptop running MS-DOS and Kermit in my staging room to quickly configure remote access. Boots in

Quad9, like most global DNS providers uses anycast to provide redundancy and low latency. My connection to them still terminates in Chicago. If my DNS queries are answered in the US, surely they are under some type of US Gov authority and r

I have been looking for something exactly like this. I've tried some other apps as a place to collate and organize PDFs but haven't found anything. This looks really promising.

My city went to one to pay for water, trash pickup, etc. It's a horrible experience to use. It takes longer and is less efficient than just logging into a modern website and paying.

Cool. I'm not the one who originally posted the question but had the same one upon checking out the starting page. Great idea, something I would be interested in signing up for, but too much plastic at this point.

I'll have to look into OTR+XMPP. I was hoping for something straightforward for non-technical folks to use as well. Any recommendations on clients? What I meant by iOS/Chrome is that you currently can't setup the desktop (Chr

> Just what sort of obscenely restrictive firewall are you behind? Many companies block outbound on non-well known ports, for various reasons. tcp/443 is almost always available though.

There's a lot of people saying "don't use btsync for sensitive data" and rightfully so. What are some alternatives that are considered more secure?

I've actually owned that phone. It really, really does not work well, even for just calls. My battery life when using it was atrocious. Also, send/receiving texts was a very difficult task.

I don't see GPG/PGP integration. I have been looking for a lightweight, multi-platform offline capable IMAP client with good GPG/PGP encryption for awhile now, and nothing seems to quite fit the bill.

I'm a bit surprised there's no discussion yet about PGP/GnuPG (GPG). If we all encrypted our mails would this be such a big deal? No. Is client-side encryption difficult? Not really. I think there's a big market for a desktop email app that
