Enough with this "hard to solve" nonsense; email has been around since the 70s. Google, Yahoo!, and Microsoft are f*king it up, that's all.

If you're not on the contact list of a personal gmail account, it's nearly certain you'll land in spam if you cold contact them. Happened to me so many times; sending a mail to the person sitting next to me who I hadn't

That's actually good. Sendgrid & the rest are excluded from the paranoid gmail, m$, etc spam filters, while small senders suffer from being sent to spam immediately. There should be no exceptions.

God, I miss holo. It was so much nicer on the eyes. "Dark Mode" is... ugly. I'm glad it exists, but it's still uglier, than holo was.

Absolutely love the design!... but... it's not a progressive option, which make it a big, bad nope for me.

Aral: you go rounds and rounds to reinvent ideas that are solved, and it's been like this for years. You could join any ActivityPub based project; even start one; build a Matrix client with a web frontent; dig into Scuttlebutt; start w

Yay. I wonder when someone will pop up on Github, demanding "user" to be renamed, because it's pejorative due to that context.

RE not found evidence: I always imagine what would have happened if we were to start with biology based tech. A few centruries, and poof, nothing left. Now, put that into a million years perspective...

The built in php -S can run WP just fine, albeit without url rewrites, aka nice permalinks. One still needs a mysql server though.

200x SALARY is never OK. Give them stocks. If they do a good job, they get a lot of money. But not in salary; that's simply mad.

The fact that there are ceos who get paid 200x more, than an employee, is already outrageous.

Does a 1% compression jpeg _supposed_ to be distinguishable from the orginal? Probably not, until it goes into a 4m x 3m print. MP3 does the same to sound that jpg does to colour: those similar enough become one. And it also cuts off the &q

EVERYONE can tell 128kbp vs FLAC if they listen even a bit. 128kbps was always bad, especially if it's an old upload. 320kbps (which is ~Spotify 'extreme') vs FLAC is a different story, you do need some reasonable (read at le
