They're picking up the pieces for 69 billion. Your analysis makes it sound like VMWare is falling apart. Going by price it suggests it is going from strength to strength no?

Absolutely. Description is now advocacy.

What's the feeling about Khat? I don't know the numbers in general but I was in a specific region and saw that many Muslim men there were quite addicted to it. Is it actually Halal?

My wife had serious back issues. MRI showed multiple issues with lower discs etc...surgery was being pushed strongly. She wasn't keen because her sister's surgery had not really helped much. She found Dr Sarno. To this day I'

Presumably there is a transitional period during which the new DKIM key becomes active and the old inactive. Will some legitimate mails fail verification during that period?

I think it's pertinent information to know. I found their comment interesting.

The single most important piece of information is missing: how long did they stay in the hotel? Update: 2 weeks according to another site[1]. That seems like a very short time to turn out another 100+ pages of a book... [1] https:/&#x

I read the original with interest because it describes very well the absurdly crap systems the world has become infested with and which many of us on this site have become complicit in making. People are spending vast amounts of time fiddli

The Apple money is on escrow I believe so we may yet be forced to accept it.

Do they also issue allocations as part of membership? I didn't mention them because I'm not aware if the same "free" allocation is made in those RIRs.

Join RIPE and you may get a /24 allocation though the wait time varies https://www.ripe.net/participate/member-support/become-a-mem...

It's not an excuse. It's a fact. Just read this thread. Thousands of flags of totally innocuous material by accident by scores of users. Including myself. Or maybe you think I subliminally love flagging articles concerning improve

Well I just found out that somehow over the years I had flagged 30+ totally innocuous items. So I've unflagged them all. They were more like things I would have been interested in rather than upset by. So I guess I was flagging instead

Office365 does the exact same thing. I think to the majors once email crosses into their systems it becomes an object of their own that is no longer an email as such. They may partially reconstruct it for you as a courtesy...for now.

I'm surprised they don't own their own IPs. In the email world I would say that's quite important. Seems a tad casual to say "luckily they are willing to lease them"...

I think something weird is happening but I think it's what Hofstadter stated in the interview. The ground under his work has shifted massively and he's disturbed by that and that is affecting his judgement.

We get to spend an average of 500ms with each email in terms of scanning. Obviously some things may spend a much longer time but we keep it to the minimum. Absolutely email is not intended for time sensitive Comms but absolutely it is used

I work in email security. If we even delay some emails for 5 minutes+ we're going to see significant customer response. Systems are designed accordingly.

People have kind of figured out that an appearance of calm, rationalism may also conceal extremely strong feelings. One has to have an open mind. It's not inherently more rational to calmly accept all social changes brought on by techn
