I've been running my own email server for around 7-8 years and just setup a new email server on a DigitalOcean vps earlier this year using "Mail-in-a-Box". That's about as easy as it gets but it still requires some work

There were cars back in the 70-80s that had adjustable shoulder belts that allowed you to lower the height of the belt where it's attached to the door jamb pillar behind the seat, but it's been a long time since I've seen a c

I've been watching Dr. John Campbell videos for awhile now and he does a good job of going over studies and explaining them in laymen terms. Definitely worth keeping up with him.

I agree the report was a quick and dirty one that didn't have anything close to a real studies data to jump to any conclusion but the headline feels misleading too because it implies mask do not work, which is also not the case. What w

If they're not paying the city for it then they're giving it to them, but that doesn't mean they're not paying for it. The idea that there is no "pay to play" going on in local politics is absurd. But the publi

My ezinvoice suite of apps has a simple "Expense Accounts" and "Reports" app that creates charts with monthly and yearly expenses. I can't say it's the "best" app but it may be worth taking a look at.

NOAA has the data to do that so it's certainly possible, but their app already does it and is very good, and so are many others. This is an intentionally minimal approach I took and I made it mainly for when I am outdoors hiking, campi
