I’m aware most ISPs do not allow for port 25 to be open for email use outside of business licenses, but at what level is that controlled? Can I get around that by owning my own router? Owning my own modem or ONT? Or is this just a thing they mystically control further up the pipeline that a relative layman such as myself...
Your ISP controls what ports you can access using one or more firewalls and traffic control devices somewhere past the point where you connect to their network.
They can block whatever ports they want. The only way around this is to use a VPN, which creates a tunnel directly from your device to a remote server to route traffic. This still goes through your ISP and whatever firewall they have but does so over a port that they (probably) don’t block. They can’t see what ports your web or network requests are using so they can’t block it directly.
Depending on your technical know how and what type of router you have, you could set up a VPN at the device level (PC, phone, etc.) to send just requests from that device or at the router level which could send all traffic from your network through the VPN.
It’s important to remember when using a VPN that the VPN servers can still see (and potentially log) all of your traffic, even if your ISP cannot. You still need to find a VPN service that you trust to not monitor your traffic.
Looks awesome, I think the color is great! It’s hard to get a perfect color match, so if you can make a note of what product was used you can talk to the stylist the next time about trying something else to get closer to what you pictured in your head.
Go for it! It’s a bit cliche to talk about how “liberating” it can feel to change up your hair, but only because that feeling can be so real. Especially if it’s something you haven’t done before. Make sure you talk to the stylist about how to take care of it (shampoo, conditioner, etc.) to make sure the color doesn’t fade. Good luck!

Here’s an better archive link to the story for anyone who gets a subscription popup on the azcentral site.
I think this is great for the kids that can take advantage of it and a great use of the school voucher program. It would be good to see this in areas like the southeast US where governers are pushing for limiting LGBTQ+ rights instead of against.
EDITED to include a better archive site link from the Wayback Machine.
Hey thanks for letting me know about that! I use adblock everywhere so I didn’t know that site was an ad nightmare. I’ve replaced the link with one from the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine that (as far as I can tell) only has a single pop-up.
I think this idea could be true for some businesses, primarily those that only use their endpoints (laptops) for simple documentation tasks and/or as gateways to web-based tools. However, in addition to “user demand” there needs to be an adequate business case ($$ savings) plus enough technical knowledge on the IT implementation side to made the move. I’ve worked in shops moving from a large Microsoft Windows footprint to Apple products and it is not always an easy transition, even with tools like Jamf.
Since companies will still have to rely on a Windows- or Linux-based backend (on prem or cloud) they’ll need admins that can handle integrating those macOS and iOS devices into their MDM systems alongside the Windows systems. There are also a lot of users out there who may have no experience with using a Mac, either for personal or business use, that will need re-training to use a Mac laptop. Both integration / transition of systems and users will introduce delays and downtime into a company’s business processes, increasing the cost to transition.
None of the above is a reason not to move from Microsoft to Apple, but it’s definitely not a simple process and that can lead to slow (or no) transitions for large businesses, no matter how many users ask for it.
As @interolivary said, it’s not a you problem. It sounds like you’re using the PWA for Beehaw since you click an icon to open it. I’ve had this same problem on mobile using PWA (Chrome and Firefox) but not with desktop browser. I’ve also not seen this on the mobile apps I’m trying out (Voyager and Jerboa). From the symptoms it seems like closing a PWA session clears the browser cookie that’s being used for session persistence.
Try just using it from the mobile browser; I have not seen this issue it on Chrome or Firefox on Android and I expect that Safari on iOS won’t have the problem either.
This week is starting out complicated. I have a ton to do for work and absolutely no motivation to do any of it, so I’m having to spend more willpower than I’m used to just to get started. I’m coming off of a bad weekend mood-wise and really feeling the “want to run away to a cave and live there forever” vibes, which is also taking effort to move past.
One thing that’s cheering me up is planning out the details of some house changes for August/September, which hopefully will end up going well. Visualizing the end result is giving me something positive to look forward to.
I don’t have much to say that might help, except that I feel what you’re saying. Many times I’ve been at a place where all I can do is look at my emotions and think “what the hell am I supposed to do with this?”. Nothing like not knowing how long you’ll have to wade through the swamp or what’s going to help you get out. Sometimes all you can do is keep moving and be open to what’s coming in the future.
Burnout is absolutely real, though I had a vacation a few weeks ago so I think this is just due to not having enough downtime to myself over the weekend. It seems like the older I get the more distance that I need from people in order to recharge.
I think that sometimes the burnout is internal, rather than in relation to something external like my job. It’s also hard to separate the DGAF mood from other stressors like lack of sleep (something my video game habit has not helped with).
I finally got the opportunity to watch Asteroid City. I am a long-time fan of Wes Anderson, but none of the people around me share my joy in his movies so I have to gush about it online....
For me it wasn’t so much the dialog as the overall emotional content and context within a few of the theater scenes. I honestly can’t remember much of the dialog that stood out to me, but I mostly enjoy Anderson’s movies for the vibe I get from them.
The mannerisms of the Edward Norton playwright character reminds me of someone that I knew in the past, and I think it made more of an impact on me because of that.

I would absolutely choose this mode without any shame. I already spend plenty of time in “Story Mode” difficulty; I don’t care to spend hours of frustration trying to hit just the right dodge pattern for a boss because I no longer have the finger dexterity that I did when I was 20.
I’ve been using it for the last day or so on a separate account and I like it so far. It’s a new app and there’s plenty of stuff planned for it, but the ability to open comments in a separate column instead of another tab is fantastic. There’s already a request for light mode in the repo, which is my biggest issue right now.
For anyone like me that has a more “cosmic consciousness” type of spirituality. This is (so far) my favorite adaptation of the original short story by Andy Weir.

The Being in the Way podcast has been putting out official recordings by Alan Watts on a semi-regular basis for about two years now. I like listening to his lectures as his take on Taoism is fairly down to earth and practical, rather than esoteric or excessively religious.
I also second the recommendation of PhilosophyTube on YouTube. I’ve been a fan of that channel since nearly the start, and it’s been cool to see the improvement over time in both the presentation and substance of her videos.
While many creatives may spend time rubbing out or digitally removing mistakes from their work, the animator and illustrator Sakshi Jain welcomes them. In fact, she only believes a piece of hers to be complete when “a mistake effectively becomes part of the artwork”....
Because climate change is already a do-or-die political issue and Republicans are on the “die” team, so if you actually care about the world being on fire vote for a Democrat.
That’s the argument from the piece. Nothing new, interesting, or likely to be persuasive to anyone whose mind is not already made up on the issue of climate change.
