I think I'm becoming utterly disillusioned on tech stuff lately. I'm hugely aware of the "you like stuff you grew up with" and "you have less patience for stuff as you age" biases, but even so...
Streaming is shit.
Searching is shit.
Researching is shit.
Shopping is shit.
Troubleshooting is shit.
My phone is shit. Autocorrect, touchscreen keyboards, Bluetooth, AI, Android Auto, Spotify, all shit.
It's not even capitalism or consumerism, I'm just tired of arguing and fighting with things I own.
@unspeaker hardly useful in this form, but here it is: https://github.com/RyanWelly/lisp-in-rs-macros 😄

Someone called a SWAT team on a guy while he was streaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIEwcTKUFCA
And some blame… Rust devs. I feel genuinely sorry for this dude, but pinning it on crustaceans is just too funny 🤣
Does anyone still use Outlook.com for e-mail?
Because I still do for some things and now that MS forced OAuth2 on everyone, something has to be done to keep fetchmail working.
AFAIK there is a patch that adds experimental support to fetchmail directly, but from what I read about it, it's still quite flaky.
I wonder if this thing would get it done: https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy ?
@fl0_id @jwz compromising on principles means you don’t have them. Which means you’re left with no way to distinguish yourself from a crowded marketplace. Which means you’re competing with price. That works poorly when your competitor is a free loss-leader establishing a moat for a different, related business (not even looking at said competitor’s financial ties to Mozilla). So with principles and price off the table, how is it competitive at all? Mild technical differences, and branding. Might as well have folded up shop instead.
I stopped receiving #ProtonMail notifications a few days ago on my #Android phone.
I went through the settings, reset my notifications, even uninstalled and reinstalled the app while clearing the cache/data, and still didn't have luck.
Eventually out of desperation I changed my "Private DNS" from `dns.google` to `dns10.quad9.net` and interestingly it started working again 👀
I'm not saying #Google blocked ProtonMail, but I wouldn't put it past them at this point

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
