If you're worried about privacy, I hope all your contacts use GPG. Practically none of my contacts know how to use that. Practically all of my contacts use Gmail and Outlook.com. That means all of my emails will end up in Google and Microsofts hands anyway. I'm sure they will build shadow profiles on me (especially since I'm a former customer, using the same domain alias on my new host as I did with them).
That being said, I recently switched to https://mailbox.org (they have a very good reputation). Mainly because I love the web UI it's an awesome service and I get CalDAV and CardDAV that works beautifully.
I found that mailcow is a bit too heavy on the requirements. Instead I've started using mailcow (https://mailcow.email/) which runs a mail server in docker.
It's a bit less of a hassle to actually start up and keep maintained.
It's their right now, but in "life + 70 years" it could have been an incredibly valuable cultural heritage in the hands of the public. Now the game will die when Blizzard chooses to stop adapting the game to new platforms.
You seem to confuse 'cars with old technology' with 'old cars', though I am not sure how "cars with '50s technology" could have led to that confusion.
Anyway, these are not even close to being the same. I was talking about the fact that the new cars being sold had ancient technology.
These were not "feelings". I mean, they were selling cars with rigid axles that would screech when turning corners. My dad (who worked for both US and German carmakers) explained other details to me about the engines, about fit-and-finish etc., but it was also painfully obvious for a layperson like myself.
I missed what point your anecdote was making. I think the adjective 'new' would have made it a lot clearer. And there was no verb in your original "sentence". I guess your point was that the US was like a developing country in 1981 because new cars were sold with 50s technology? Do you still fell like that is the situation today? I thought you were trying to say the US is/was like a developed nation because of the age of the cars on the road.
I don't have a feel for what the worldwide car technology situation was in 1981, I was a few years from being born.
Don't you find that your surfing is a configurational nightmare? Using uMatrix was doable, but I finally gave it because it always interupted my browsing. Adding NoScript to the mix would probably drive me insane. Do you have any special techniques? :)
It usually only takes a moment to configure uMatrix for any given site. However, adding NoScript into the mix means that, each time I allow a new script or group of scripts, I have to refresh so that previously unallowed external requests can be made and uMatrix can register them. uBlock is usually not a problem and I usually don't have to touch it, but sometimes I have to let a request or two through.
Sometimes it's absolutely infuriating when I have to spend 5 minutes configuring a new site before I use it, incrementally configuring and reloading, but my anger directed isn't towards my addons. It's directed towards the shitty website that requires a thousand external APIs to function properly.
When it's bad enough, it's a sign that I don't need to be using that website. After all, what is the point of having three layers of blocking (not counting my other addons) if I just let everything through anyway in order to use the site? I also don't allow any third-party cookies and that is non-negotiable for any service.
If it's absolutely critical, as in work-related or I cannot find my information elsewhere, I spin up a thinly-provisioned untrusted VM to minimize my exposure to malware and spy/tracking agencies.
All of this effort is completely pointless if you let yourself get pixeled[0] or pinged with APIs like Google AJAX. And it's pretty much currently impossible to avoid getting pixeled entirely.
Until we fix the major security holes that allow beacons to track us, it's all just intellectual masturbation when we use these tools.
What I would like to see is an addon that intercepts all images and provides them as a tree to allow whitelisting of images, and a caching system similar to Decentraleyes[1].
Sorry for going meta, but I find it very odd your comment was dead, as your GP post was not.
I've been seeing this quite a lot in the last 2-3 months, perfectly reasonable comments that are [dead] for no discernible reason; could this be trolling or a form of botting?
If it's too much bother with NoScript making the page work, it probably wasn't worth wasting any time on it in the first place. So I gained time instead of lost!
If I recall things right this had a built in email list management. I had acquired a CSV of all the student and staff addresses. While I was goofing around with this I accidentally sent out a to a really strange email to everybody (but it kind of looked like it was addressed to them because everybody was in BCC). Next day at school was terrible.
To add to that, try enabling omemo across 4 different OS (Andoid, iOS, MacOS and Linux) and you'll want to burn all of your devices. Messages showing up on some devices randomly or not, etc. nice thing in general and I really like the idea of xmpp, but not exactly user-friendly for non-technical folks.
