I don't think the goal is that every non technical person can host their own mail infra. But most people who can run a server should be able to setup OpenSMTPd with the DKIM filter and Dovecot. It's much easier than configuring po

If you're talking about the child safety, it's unrelated to door locking. It prevents children from exiting the car before an adult can ensure it is safe to do so. Mostly to prevent the child getting run over by a passing car, or

All modern cars have been locking the doors for the last 20 years or so, as far as I know. At least here in Western Europe. The door handles still work from the inside, they mechanically unlock the door unconditionally, meaning nobody can b

Interesting, I suppose it can work because male hymenopterans (ants, bees and wasps) are haploid, so the queen doesn't need two copies of the "foreign" genes to produce a male of the other species but just one copy, the one t

That's not especially ironic though. In doing that Europe avoids the pollution associated with shale gas exploitation. The gas itself isn't different once it is extracted, so it doesn't matter if the imported gas is shale gas

I have a keyboard and monitor somewhere in a closet. That's also what we do at work with our "real" servers. I'd say it's needed about once a year at most though. Servers don't just fail to start, normally.

OpenSMTPd + Dovecot is extremely easy to setup and maintain. For my parents, I registered a domain on OVH and they use the free email accounts they come with. So that's an independent, ready to migrate, email account for about 8 euros

It actually happens quite often in France coming from right-wing politicians. Strikers are "hostage takers", demonstrators are "vandals", etc. It's all part of the theatre to discredit opposition.

You don't have to drive 60 mph there though. You can use your judgement. I'm more used to France's 90 km/h countryside roads (now 80 km/h for most of them) but it's the same, sometimes you can only drive 70 o

I measured it a while ago (well, 11 years now) and both France and the UK made the cut[0]. France has much more margin though, IIRC no single territory becoming independent would make the sun set on France. [0] https://ssz.fr/

Acceptable by the person who wants to die. That usually means not too painful, and not causing more stress than necessary to the persons you care about. Wanting to avoid pain is very much not a reason to seek therapy, what an absurd thought

Belgium didn't phase out nuclear. They decided that someone in the future would handle the closure of the nuclear plants, and when the time came and no replacement plant had been built, we just kept the nuclear plants running.
