I'm pretty sure the recovery process for backblaze includes them decrypting your files on their infrastructure and then sending to you. Or something like that. I did a ton of research into the different options recently and didn't

Would it be possible to handle email addresses with the + trick? E.g. you can supply your email address as foo+bar@<domain> and mail sent to that address will be routed to foo@<domain> by some providers like gmail and protonmail

That's incredible, thank you for sharing and making a quality kickstarter and apparently a quality product! Honestly if you showed me your product in CAD or injection molded and asked if it could be useful 3D printed I would have guess

As an adult, this is exactly what I want. So tired of the unrelated drivel youtube recommends. I will gladly watch a few favorite channels all day but youtube wants me to either watch "similar" channels of 5% the quality or "

As sibling comment says, I'm not sure I see the value over a counter edge (though clearly refilling tubes is one point) But I want to say WOW to your kickstarter video!! I was not expecting that level of testing and engineering to go i

I'm guessing it's some mix of subtle marketing (product and career opportunities) and a genuine interest in a healthy community of sharing useful knowledge for the benefit of everyone. Possibly also the people working on it are su

Agreed and I'm not the type to be like "well I've got nothing to hide" but the reality is email is a requirement for modern life and I'm guessing nation states can intercept my plaintext mail in places besides the s

I'm not going to get into the meat of the drama here but I do want to say, and I hope the protonmail team is reading, the value of protonmail for me isn't even in protecting me from state actors and whatever they're proud abo

Have never heard of this brand, where are they popular?

I like the article and totally get it, agree with it to the extent that agreeing makes sense here. I do want to defend patagucci real quick. These puffies are legitimately incredible over a wide range of temps. I can comfortably wear my dow

Ha! Totally forgot the Switch is USB-C, I just moved and realized I left both of my chargers in my previous apartment and now both laptops are dying, but I have the Switch!!

I have a USB-C only Lenovo (well I guess it has USB-A but I never use it, I'm all in bluetooth/USB-C) and a latest gen Mac Air. I've got a USB-C charging cable for each, a dock at home and at the office that is USB-C (and man

Wow significantly better, I was at 30/5. I had tried lower settings (I think 10/1) at some point and logging in again was hilariously difficult so I stopped messing with it out of fear. 15/2 is beauty. Thanks a lot!

Tangent (or OT), something I've been struggling with as a new macOS user, how do I get keyboard repeats working? I understand they removed repeats so that a long press can offer accent characters. I've done `defaults write -g KeyR

I took calculus at the same time as advanced placement physics in highschool. Calc was taught dry and contextless, I wasn't doing well. Then we started learning calc in physics, and wowee it made so much more sense, would you believe m

I think the author does a pretty good job of highlighting that there are imperfections and shortcomings while eliding over those details. They may have slipped up in some places such as your quote but I'm definitely not concerned of an

Because your comment is not contributing. Linksys produces and advertises a "best of the best" router with inbuilt alternative NAS feature that not only is so poorly maintained that it's insecure but also unusable by modern O

How is the internal culture today? We all know the horror stories of one/two years ago but I haven't seen anything in what feels like a long time.

exactly. read 2 pages of a book. play with your pet for so little time that it gets pissed off at you. ditto the kid. code long enough that you manage to remember what you were doing yesterday and then immediately forget...

If you're a techie, young with no family, and you want good culture, good climate, good outdoors, and good job prospects...the valley is hard to beat. Yes I know about droughts, we can debate all day if the culture is good or terrible,

I see plenty... often times it's more corporate focused but frequently it's about how those corporations interact with the government/society in ways that implicate government/society as well.

To all you who think this idea is unfounded or dramatic, remember that this is the entire point of FOSS. Whether this idea holds water is irrelevant, it's aligned to FOSS and it's strange that they don't appear to care or hav

I'm out of the loop here, someone elaborate? I know about MS etc but is this a reference to B&MGF?

Ah interesting. I totally hear that. Your idea of a beginner is someone in a mature environment though, I guess my thought when I read your previous comment was a total beginner starting from a blank slate.

Can you expand on what you think has become difficult and what you recommend now?

But that's exactly my point. Antifa is definitely a bad thing, but it is literally a response to the other side. If right wing extremists didn't exist FIRST, antifa wouldn't exist AT ALL. If nationalist extremists don't

We live in a globalized world, there's an argument to be had that nationalism in the cheery light you just presented it as is no longer such a good thing. I'm of the opinion that the very concept of countries is inherently violent

I think the point the article was trying to make was that what the CEO tried is classically delusioned thought processes from a rich privileged person. His business experience was not applicable to the situation but he thought it was. And i

Everything about this is great, I'm not a big video watcher but I just sat through that whole thing it was gold. The selfie direction flips, the interjections from you in another setting instead of chopping the video (both funny but al
