The problem with this is trust. If you could seamlessly migrate like this, there’s nothing to stop someone faking a long post/comment on their own instance, making them look very legitimate and then migrating that account to a trusted/legitimate instance.
Then using that for spam/selling block chain etc.
People are the reason we can’t have nice things.
How you can have an article talking about the history of email and it not be about Ray Tomlinson, I just don’t know. Wait - now I know: This person looked up the Wikipedia article on the smtp protocol and decided Mr. Postal was the pioneer of email.
The conclusion is completely incorrect, also. About the only correct thing was that reputation is important for email transmission.
No: you can’t just set up an smtp outbound server on your home server and expect the world to trust you. For good reason: we’ve had decades of trojans and viruses taking over home PCs and sending spam. Your ISP declares its “home” IP ranges, and those are immediately not trusted.
That doesn’t mean you need to use a big email hosting provider. If you set up on a business IP range, configure your DNS Correctly with declared mx and spf records, the world will trust you (until you demonstrate that it can’t).
Millions of businesses around the world do this.
As I intentionally filter out as much US politics as I can, this has come out of nowhere for me.
Australia has a couple of really simple things baked into its electoral system to resist something wildly unpopular like this from getting in power:
I know these are total non-starters for our American friends. “You can’t make me vote, that’s against the constitution or something”.
Surely opinions on this are going to vary wildly? Lemmy is full of people installing graphene and de-googling, while I’m happy with stock Android on Pixels with a custom launcher. Samsung, Sony and Asus all have serious devotees as well.
There’s also different responses depending on what you want in a phone. Some people want smaller than 6", others must have a 3.5mm jack. Some want SD storage. The camera is vital for me, but most of my colleagues don’t really care about the camera.
How would you sift through all that for a “best” one size fits all phone?
I’m not sure whether this is actually a cool guide, or how an Australian thinks of US regions. But this map mostly aligns with my impressions of the USA. So, it may well be a pretty good guide.
I do.
But the skin tone thingy matters to some people and I fully support that, too.
I am typing this comment on a Pixel 7. I have had it for nearly two years and I have never experienced these symptoms.
The only app I can think of that doesn’t load in under a second is Asphalt Legends - and that’s because the app takes a week to load on anything.
I am very satisfied with this device, and doubt I’ll be upgrading to Pixel 9. I have no reason to upgrade.
