I had the V1 from very early days. It wasn’t flawless but it was easy enough to use for my spouse, and worked with most email clients which proton does not.

https://www.thehelm.com/ Helm used to be a turnkey self hosted email service. https://proton.me/mail Proton is a privacy focused (still work with LE for criminal investigations) email service.

This is Reddit. The /s is always needed.

Aren’t people great! /s

Proton, the now dead helm, and other email providers who aren’t google provide catch all or wildcard addresses for a low fee. It’s not easy for the non tech savvy, but if you are then it’s trivial to configure.

You can also add a + tag inline such as email address+companyname@gmail.com and it will be auto labeled.

How do you propose doing this without bombs, boots, and bullets?

That was my experience in Shannon’s airport. Manual trans, which I can drive, but was on the opposite side so left handed shifting plus rock fences and busses left me on a white knuckle drive to Galway. I didn’t sleep on the flight over from SF. Ireland was great, but I should have gotten a hotel, slept, then gone to Moher but it was a work trip.

Pick a selection of the top books right now and read the inserts description. Find a library and check some out. If you don’t like the book try another genre or author in the same genre. Or. Look at the shoes you enjoy and try something there assuming it isn’t home renovation or baking.

Well me hearty, when 98% of the market defaults to you that’s a monopoly. Businesses and the government largely aren’t on the others. Government shouldn’t use a private monopoly of a platform (twitter and YouTube for comma and google for finding info)that isn’t neutral for official communication.

It’s obvious we won’t come to a consensus, but it’s been nice having a discussion that didn’t include ad hominem attacks or bring up certain mustachioed men.

Good day!

But you can’t really go somewhere else in most cases. It’s a monopoly. Kill 230 or carve out these monopolies and you get a more free market approach.

Fox shows don’t get section 230 protections. Your examples do.

Not when they claim they aren’t and are allowed to donate funds to political candidates. In an age where whatever google returns to your search on the first page is the truth it does matter if they filter topics, ideas, or statements that aren’t illegal and don’t indicate that it’s biased or an ad. It’s 15 years too late to compete with google as a search engine, 10 years to late for YouTube, and probably already too late for a small chrome competitor. gmail is the odd exception and you can replace it trivially. They are a monopoly just like bell and should be broken.

Not if you claim to be a platform and not a publisher.

But in this specific case, if they knew masks would be in short supply they could have recommended cloth coverings as a placebo that wouldn’t actually be harmful. The government is demonstrably not infallible.

What is good for humanity as a whole isn’t the same as what is best for any individual. Why should the government get to tell me to expose myself to a virus with an initially reported mortality rate that would have resulted in death carts in the streets. If the government told you to take six six cylinder revolvers, load one round in one of the three pistols, and randomly select one to play Russian roulette with would you do it? The early reports of dying from covid were worse percentages than that.

Please remind me why I should trust anything I’m told by a stranger without verification on my part. Especially when the statement is obviously wrong.

The current format with companies claiming 230 protections and then taking actions they shouldn’t get protected for can’t continue. Something needs to change but it’s probably not happening from the legislative branch at a federal level. The amount of things that got people throttled or banned but ended up being true in the past three years is unacceptable. You can disagree with an opinion but the platform shouldn’t be banning things that aren’t illegal and still get 230.

Animal populations fall in major cities as they are built. I’m kinda shocked it wasn’t a bigger drop. I leave my pastures I alone most of the year and just mow paths. Most of the year I only see a few of birds other than eagles, hawks, and the like, but in the winter smaller birds flock to the feeders and I get hundreds. Most people can’t not use the land they own. I’m not sure what the answer is for cities. Pesticide use probably isn’t helping. In the agricultural areas I think that is much more important in the US. https://ocm.auburn.edu/newsroom/news_articles/2020/10/141359-miao-bird-study.php#:~:text=When%20birds%20eat%20the%20pesticide,decrease%20birds'%20abilities%20to%20reproduce.
