🤷♀️ I was using mutt for both smtp and imap in 2002, don’t know how long before that it worked — but at least since then.
… what? mutt can talk imap and smtp natively, I don’t know what else you need to qualify as an “email client”
That’s actually a good point. I’m a TUI guy as much as the next one but I normally use full screen terminal and tmux instead of larping the 90s.
Deeply respect the hustle - I was also X-free in the early 00s - but I wonder what is the advantage of going raw tty instead of full screen terminal in a wm
Why alpine instead of mutt? It must be some 20 years since I least heard about pine or any of its forks
I mean I guess that’s sound advice if you don’t need to, I don’t know, print?
You are technically correct (I know) but I would argue that distros that come with a certain DE usually have their experience built into it. Sure you can install gnome in kde neon but don’t expect anything to work, if it does it’s mostly by accident.
This is true for distros that cater to “simple” users that want to install and be productive of course, not for those like Debian or arch which cater to users who want to build their own experience.
Apple and wait for Asahi Linux to finish their driver support 🫠 don’t know what to tell you man.
I have never tried framework laptops - maybe they’re glorious, maybe they’re junk - but of all the laptops I tried Apple are the only decent ones hardware-wise (and software-wise too if you like osx).
I don’t know who else makes decent laptops nowadays, but Lenovo isn’t it, and most likely won’t be.
Good luck hoping for anything about Lenovo, they’ve gone down and down the shitter ever since they “split” from IBM.
No I don’t own a framework nor plan to do so, I’m just an average IT guy who is forced to choose between Lenovo and Mac to work, and after the third garbage laptop in a row bit the bullet and got the Mac. I also own an x200 and a t430 that i was in love with - nothing to do with the present day latrines masquerading as computers.
Screw Lenovo really. Hope for some decent competition to framework (I hope for that too, they are currently the only ones in that niche) but don’t hope for it from them.
I have never watched it and probably never will- I’m sure it’s a great movie but the twist is one of the most spoiled in internet history :(
Nothing is ever truly original, everything you create is a remix of things you encountered after they are processed by your subconscious. And that’s ok. Even if your song will end up to be very similar to another one it will be your own spin on the musical “idea”. Go for it

It’s not that hard™
That was exactly my point. Blocking instances because “that way my content can’t be seen there” doesn’t make sense, because it’s trivial to bypass it. Yes, even a screenshot will do the job if nothing else, so why talk about protocols in the first place?
Somebody (maybe you maybe not, can’t check while replying) said that blocking instances was useful so that “my content doesn’t get seen / shared / pushed / etc to people and instances I don’t want”. That doesn’t make sense because of the line above. If you need clarification on who are those people and what are those instances ask them, not me.
I hope I’m somehow conveying my message. If there is a subtlety in the subject that I didn’t catch feel free to help me understand.
And what’s stopping these people and these instances from spreading that content using just the publicly available link? Instead of just clicking “share” they’ll have to open an anonymous browser window and copy paste the link from there, the horror!
Isn’t “protecting content” on a public platform kinda moot?
I feel you (or your family). Call me whatever you want but I really like the algorithm, I get exposed to so much stuff I wouldn’t otherwise. 90% of my subs are channels I found through YouTube suggestions.
The missing recommendations for me is the main reason why I’m still using youtube instead of freetube, that and watched videos being synchronised across devices.
In the time before ubo fixed the popup I would browse yt on the browser, get recommendations and copypaste urls into ft.
For me it’s multi account containers.
I’ll be honest, I do research companies and aim for ethical employers and all that, but
the job market is fucked, techies come a dime a dozen nowadays - anything you apply to the competition is fucking fierce so you can’t really afford to be picky
I care about how ethical my employer is, but not enough to be chocked in debt or live paycheck to paycheck without affording a single luxury in my life. I’m talking “eating out once per week” here, not yachts.
Disengage, mostly.
I’m good at tech stuff but I hate 99% of the work that I’m good at, so i just treat it as the revenue source that it is and try not to think about it too much.
If things in my life had gone differently I may have had to mine coal somewhere to get my paycheck, so overall it isn’t that bad.
The idea of getting paid to do stuff I enjoy is buried there with the rest of my youth delusions.
Best of luck my friend
