Even for the technically literate, running a mail server is an ongoing nightmare. If you think it's easy, you're not doing it right.

Why are you searching for a solution to a problem you don't have?

There's nothing wrong with systemd.

Doesn't the US have a constitutional amendment for this (maybe even the first one)?

I'd think the "originalists" would be all for this.

Pro birth, not pro life.

Hurricane Electric have a free tunnel broker that is super simple to set up if you really want to get on the bandwagon.

Though honestly I'd say the benefits of setting it up aren't really worth the trouble unless you're keen.

My problem is with the influence that a hostile foreign state actor has with TikTok.

Google is an independent company; I'm 99% certain their motivation is to make money and I'm confident their algorithms are tailored purely for engagement and profit. Whilst I'm sure they have some back room deals with US intelligence organisations I suspect that it's a case of providing data vs providing influence (though I would not rule it out).

TikTok is controlled by the Chinese government. That's not up for debate; if you have an entity in China it has to work that way. Imagine the damage they could do if they actively decided to increase, for example, messages of reunification with Taiwan in their algorithm by just 1% on a global scale. That frightens me and I'm not convinced it isn't happening already on specific topics of concern to China's foreign policy.

And that's putting aside the amount of data that the Chinese are getting without even exerting any influence. They can likely discern worldwide sentiment on a range of topics and adjust political posture accordingly.

I'm not saying Google is perfect. I hate social media in general for the way it's warping the zeitgeist. But I personally consider TikTok to be a huge threat to the world.

Your comment is painful to read.

I'm not from the US, but my understanding is that the democratic party only want one thing? Namely the continuation of subsidies for health care for the less fortunate (not undocumented immigrants).

Given the US is the only first world nation without Universal Health Care, that doesn't sound like "a bunch of shit" to me.

My current total comp puts me in the top 1--2% for my country (based on reported incomes). The difference between the billionaire class and me is massive; I still have to budget for my bills, expenses etc.

That said, I am fully aware that I'm in a privileged position.

I grew up in government housing and suffered malnutrition as a child because my single working mother couldn't afford enough food. I worked my arse off in school and was lucky enough to be eligible and accepted into a scholarship programme for University; I would not have been able to attend otherwise.

Since then I've had relatively good career opportunities and have taken advantage of them. I tried hard and continue to do so because I know what it's like to not have enough.

I think that I worked hard to get where I am. I do not consider myself rich (where some people might understandably do so), but I know what it is like to be wanting.

Despite my hard work, I do not in the slightest think that I got to where I am based purely on bullshit like grit and determination. I have absolutely taken advantage of opportunities in front of me, but I was lucky to have those in the first place. I think I deserve to be where I am, but I also think plenty of others also deserve it and are deprived of the chances that I got by pure happenstance.

Yes, you have to work hard to change your lot in life, but to say that hard work will solve everything is ludicrous.

I'm entirely on board with a living wage, UBI, and anything else to make things more equitable. No one should have to worry about feeding their family. And I'm happy to pay more tax to make that a reality.

You could try using the DNS challenge instead; I find it a lot more convenient as not all my services are exposed.

I'd say more likely to be able to declare a capital loss on taxes.

Hypothesis

I'm assuming you're in the US.

Do non profit or cooperative insurance companies exist? They would seem like a less evil option if available.

Have you considered that killing people's children (directly or indirectly through forces like starvation, lack of medical care, etc.) might be one of the best recruitment motivators for Hamas?

I'm from Australia.

Some spiders are absolutely bros.

Others seem to exist only to fuck you up.

Once you know the difference you're fine, but I don't blanket assume that every spider I find is a friend.

So, uh, a modern (not US) prison cell?

What industry do you work in? Or of more relevance: what industry experience do you have?

I strongly recommend Mullvad. Exceptional performance, wireguard support and if you're really paranoid about anonymity you can literally send them money via post.

Name and shame the airline.

I fly a lot for work, internationally most of the time. Haven't seen this in many years.
