Self hosting receiving mail is honestly, pretty straightforward, all things considered. Setup your MX record to point at a server you control, configure software to save messages however you want. Perhaps the most complicated step is wiring up certbot or similar software to get your SSL certificate for your mailserver. A Debian Linux system, apt-get install postfix; apt-get install dovecot will get you nearly 90% of the way there.

Depending on your preference. there are docker containers that can do 100% of the process too, with all sorts of nice bells and whistles. If you don't care about sending email, you can skip DKIM/SPF/DMARC. (though, if you are never sending from your domain, check here: https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/dns-records/protect-domains-without-email/ -- there are some entries you can add to DNS to make sure everyone else knows)

Make no mistake, this is not just greed but a form of control. Once they suck all this stuff into their training, they will control access to it by means of cost or just prompting the LLMs to not go into some topics

Windows Latest previously reported that some Windows 11 PCs ship with malware built in that not even a clean install through the wrong region setting can avoid, and Microsoft told us at the time that they were aware of the behavior and looking into it. 3 years later, the company still hasn’t closed the door on OEMs using their own update pipeline to push ads.

This is supposed to be literally the selling point of a gated app store -- they app store owner makes sure the apps available do not do anything negative to the user. If it fails this basic function, then why put up with it?

This thing is impressive in its feature set. That it’s a self contained wad of python is doubly impressive. I (unsubstantiated) worry so much that there is just a litany of issues hiding in it, being such a broad multi protocol system. But on an internal protected network, huge for a group of friends to share stuff with.

The author has an impressive demo server with lots of good content too.

The article is written in a very terse style, but it does mention the dam happens to be (a) south facing, and (b) above the fog line, so it can produce in the winter when fog covers the lowlands. It also mentions that there is a bit of an albedo affect -- the snow reflects some of the sun back up to the panels.

Some drop shippers/manufacturers-on-demand will report to amazon lowish inventory, knowing full well they can get a backorder filled in a day or two, and get the product to you within the same time frame. Or do it the other way -- report that they have way more than they physically have on hand, but can make/backfill within their deadline -- so their listing rises to the top.

There are so many games going on from all the players.
