Try setting up a personal email server in 2024 and tell me afterwards how fun the experience was

Half plausible, but honestly I’m more inclined to lean into Occam’s Razor and believe there’s no conspiracy and the CEO just got AI mind worms, which is an epidemic right now

Simple Gallery got removed when people found it had non-FOSS Google libraries linked in while checking the Fossify rebrand/rework, just export your preferences and import them on Fossify Gallery (BE AWARE: There’s a bug in some launchers when an app uses custom icons like Simple Gallery and Fossify do, which breaks them, you’ll notice it if you import the preferences and you can no longer launch the app and have to uninstall/reinstall it to be able to even launch it again, in that case edit the exported Simple Gallery preferences and remove the icon line)

As somebody who has been there before, it’s 100% possible to use email for notifications and have that fully scriptable, but given how extremely stringent email providers have become over the decades and still getting tougher as we speak, i would very much recommend not depending on email for this. Ideally you’d have multiple channels in case one fails for the REALLY vital stuff, but at least you should have one that is not email. There’s many:

• One of the various ways to generate push notifications that have been mentioned in the thread
• Chat messages, people have mentioned using Telegram, Signal or others, and some of those have desktop version too
• Yes, email, but not as the only way, you don’t wanna stop receiving notifications because Google just decided your IP is spamming and is bouncing all your alerts
• One of the various cloud notification things like the AWS ones mentioned (pretty sure all the cloud providers have their own version)
• Something like a monitoring service or self-hosted server (I’ve used Zabbix in the past and like it, although this is FAR more involved)
• Text messages? This will depend on services on your area, here they’re so rare i never consider this option
• Others i can’t think about right now (need more coffee)

Whatever you do have in mind that ANY of these can fail, so if there’s anything truly critical be sure to both have a way to know if one notification system is failing, and to have a plan B to receive notifications/alerts even if one is down. Depends on how critical stuff is of course, for tests you don’t need triple redundancy or whatever, but for the service the company’s income depends on you don’t wanna have a system that stopped working and you never knew.

Gave a quick check, and it costs more than twice the price to buy it in EU, everything from Pine64, for some reason, odd, will look at this in more detail later at some point in case i missed something because the idea of an open, not locked, not tracking your every move smartwatch is appealing, but that doubling the price thing is a minus.

Have read the novels out so far (3 volumes officially translated), and I’d say it does

Really like what they did with the fake OP, at this point we have very much established the setting, the main players (the main character with her rare light magic and the 3 main potential love interests), and the fact that this is a game OUR main character used to play in her former life, really like that they gave it an opening complete with in-game captures (you can notice the moment they switched to in-game captures by the pixelation in the battle scenes). Then suddenly we switch to our gal as that’s done. From now on the main 4 should be secondary, and the next episode should be interesting as her quiet life is solidly derailed, to her annoyance an our benefit 😂

Heh, this is interesting

On one side I’m partly sad that he’s stopping those, but on another respect, he earned it and more!

jherazob, 5 months ago

That supports the opposite of your argument

The thing is that this is NOT what the marketers are selling, they’re not selling this as “Buy access to our service so that your products will be higher quality”, they’re selling this as “this will replace many of your employees”. Which it can’t, it’s very clear by now that it just can’t.

There’s software that browses to the homepage of a site and starts traversing it all, saving it all in the process
