Been using tuta with like 3-4 domains for years. It works fine.

Getting your own domain so you can keep an email address and move providers is the actual right move. Sounds like that’s what you’re going to do.

This probably factors into the resurgence of vinyl.

Speaking as someone who has gone through several of them from several brands… All the robot vacuums are scams anyway.

The batteries wear out quickly. They are consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The brushes wear out quickly. Also consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The filters eventually become clogged and render the device unusable without replacement. Also consumable and not covered by warranty.

And honestly I would be willing to put up with all of the above if they did a good job vacuuming, but they don’t and won’t.

While I agree with your sentiment… millionaires and billionaires should not be lumped together. This conflation is actually a super useful tool for the billionaires (and mega millionaires) to use when convincing the middle and lower economic classes to vote in their favor.

Realistically, millionaire today basically just means homeowner. As ridiculous as it sounds, a million dollars is not an “enormous” sum of money in today’s world.

Billionaire is something different entirely.

Better to say “super wealthy” or something like that.

“Sorry, disc must be scratched”

You could try an hdmi audio extractor and pipe that into a raspberry pi with the appropriate hat and run a real-time volume normalization dsp then run from the pi to your sound system or BACK into some hdmi encoder.

Probably run into major issues with delayed audio though.

Have been happy with Tuta

I’ve had several brands. I’m sure none were privacy respecting. But beyond that they’re all crap. They all break down and end up requiring near constant maintenance. They also don’t do a very good job of vacuuming.

Better off getting a half decent vacuum (extra points if it uses bags because… Bagless is fucking stupid) and for little clean up jobs get a manual sweeper like some restaurants use.

Yes that’s a concern with all of them, Apple TV included.

That’s what I’m using now and I like it.

Not sure if it’s a factor for you but roku tries to phone home a lot more than anything else on my network (or perhaps my firewall just catches it more than other devices and apps). Otherwise roku is pretty good.

Nvidia shield tv is better though. It’s the best set top box. Made even better by replacing the default launcher/ home screen (android TV default launcher now has 2/3 or more of the screen taken up by ads or “recommended content” which is just ads).

Big.

Absolutely agree

Oisd.nl

Feels like what happened with android tv.

Be careful when setting up either of these as the default DNS service in your home network

So any DNS based blocker is going to have the same problem. I can report though that adguard home with the default blocklists and adding in the oisd big list hasn’t broken anything. It isn’t until I start adding keyword/regex based blocking that stuff starts breaking. And then it’s mostly streaming apps that break. They have gotten smarter over the years about what to do when they can’t find their ad/tracker servers.

Destiny 2 right? They’ve had BattlEye on there for quite a while now. Kinda sucks but there’s no way around it.

WW I was over a hundred years ago. My point stands that only considering 15 years is a very myopic view on the region.

Can THIS conflict he traced back to biblical times? (By the way, it may even be selling yourself short to stop at Moses… but that leads to the question of how back do you draw the line of relevance…) no of course not. Realistically, while I’m inclined to look back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, there’s no one alive today that was alive at that time. 1 or 2 generations later can you expect everyone to forget the events of the past? Maybe not.

It’s a really classic example (maybe THE classic example) of violence begetting violence. Unfortunately the violent tendencies and hatred are institutionalized. It’s clearly not an easy problem to solve, but I’m fairly certain that violent terrorist attacks against civilians is not in the running for a solution.

EDIT: just to add, going back a thousand years takes us to the time of the crusades, during and after which there were Arab attacks driving out non-arabs… and Arab attacks against other Arab factions (not blind to the fact that all Arabs are not a monolithic group).

Going back a little further you have a history of violence and discrimination against the Jews and Arabs (and pagans and other people) by the Roman’s. You can see how hard it is to find a stopping point in the history of violence in the region.

So yes while the CURRENT conflict probably only tracks back a hundred or so years, the history of conflict in general in the region goes back thousands of years (probably 4 thousand years but im not sure there are even stories, much less even somewhat reliable historical accounts that go back much further than that).

Yes surely 1917-1948 was a time of peaceful bliss…

I mean I’m not gonna waste my time trying to educate you on this but you’re wrong. Go read some books, watch some lectures, listen to some podcasts.
