half my posts are stupid nonsense, the other half is just gross. occasionally i say something insightful about tech or finance. it's a real gamble, but what else is this platform for except to send stupid ideas into the void?

It may be part of the AccessibilityPub spec, but nobody has written that protocol yet

How much RAM do you have in your dev workstation/laptop?

feld,
@feld@bikeshed.party avatar

@pervognsen 16GB but I do a lot of work over ssh on my dev server where I have 128GB of RAM, plenty of CPU, a couple TB of NVME storage and like 100TB of spinning rust

MAC PEOPLE, HEAR ME NOW.

I have an old iMac from a friend that had a dead harddrive that I was able to replace pretty cheaply and has worked fine ever since, though it's topped out at an old OS.

I got another iMac from a neighbour suspecting it may be a harddrive issue as well, which could be an easy fix.

BUT, with both of these stopping at much older OS's that don't get updates any longer and won't run more modern programs, the question came up today...

@reay yes, it exists. Look up Hackintosh and Clover, maybe there's more modern key search words

I will warn you if you want to connect an Apple account please make a fresh one for these because weird things can happen when "unsupported" devices are on your account. It caused my friend a ton of headaches

feld,
@feld@bikeshed.party avatar

@reay yeah it was causing all the other devices to get logged out (hard lockout for weeks -- Apple support told him he had to wait it out), unable to use purchased software, etc

I just came very dangerously close to falling for one of those "wrong number" text scams, because this one by coincidence used the name of an actual relative with the correct area code for their state.
They fucked up when they sent a picture of a hot Asian woman and not an elderly Italian woman though, so A for effort, but no dice.

@delta is it supported to self-host an email server for Delta Chat and have functional push notifications with the iOS app?

feld,
@feld@bikeshed.party avatar

@delta Fastest and simplest option would be Stalwart which gives you everything in a single binary. It's all written in Rust. Backend can be as simple as Sqlite or RocksDB

The speed and simplicity of this stack (vs the overwhelming complexity of configuration for Postfix/Exim/Sendmail and Dovecot/Cyrus) is incredibly alluring

Stalwart will do everything for you except your DNS configuration. Yes, it even handles your TLS certs.

https://stalw.art

edit: and I wonder if JMAP would be beneficial for Delta Chat too...

feld,
@feld@bikeshed.party avatar

@delta I think the guts of it are really in this python script, right?

https://github.com/deltachat/chatmail/blob/main/chatmaild/src/chatmaild/notifier.py

I see the configuration mentioning self.filtermail_smtp_port and self.postfix_reinject_port which could mean this is receiving the mails before they are handed to postfix as a pass-through SMTP proxy?

Wait... it has been many years since I've used Postfix and I think it had a feature for spam filtering where you pass the mail to the spam service and it gets injected back into Postfix. Is that the functionality you're leveraging?

I wonder how else this could be done... ideally without involving some SMTP proxy for duplication / retention purposes (these exist, but... silly to require everyone rearchitect their email setup)

feld,
@feld@bikeshed.party avatar

@delta actually I like the idea of building an LMTP proxy for this purpose as a middleman between the MTA and the IMAP backend. That kinda rules out Stalwart but would likely expand the capabilities to almost every other email setup.
