I used to work with a Michael Hunt. Brilliant guy and normally pretty chill, but woe betide anyone shortening it to it’s diminutive form. I accidentally called him Mike once and he literally never responded to me again.

Hahaha. A rented Opel was what came to mind for me as well. Followed by Plymouth Crossfire and Chevy HHR.

That reads like ChatGPT used reddit comments to flesh out the “article”.

They strip the part after and including the plus. And yea, that’s exactly what is done. People need to stop assuming malicious actors are dumb and incapable of reading an RFC.

Its also VERY poorly and haphazardly handled in websites. Often they won’t let me create an account with it. Or I will be able to create an account using the alias, but then I am left unable to login.

Maybe someone spoofed the From field on some spam, using their email address. Thereby marking that From address as a spammer. I’ve seen this happen both ways.

Tell us you don’t understand how the “From” header works without telling us.

FYI, that is really just a text string. Most providers don’t let you change it, but its not exactly hard to falsify. People are largely ignorant of the fact that email mostly isnt trustworthy. Spammers abuse this ignorance constantly.

In order to send email as another address, gmail requires you to verify the address by sending you an email there first. AFAIK, they never re-verify, but that’s the main weakness I see.

I’d’ve gone with rednecks. I think the stereotype is closer (for a certain segment.)

This should be an automod copypasta any time a post mentions AI

I mean… dry from… water. And often enough that I have many bags of silica packets that I reuse. Obviously.

edit: I spend a lot of time outdoors. My gear tends to suffer if I use it and then don’t dry it before I put it away. I dont enjoy taking out some gear to use only to find it corroded or molded. Silica helps that. And for my needs, it is cheaper to reuse silica packs than it is to buy and run a(nother) dehumidifier.

Keeping things dry. Mostly electronics and machine parts.

Meta should release a product called Static. Because that company is a fucking metastatic cancer.

Hey it’s me. I’m the guy with a bunch of bags of re-baked silica packets. I’m sure I’m in a minority, though.

I know the admins have unquestionable integrity (they certainly pretend as much) so surely they are going to retroactively pay every user who contributed their benchmarks for free. Right? When should I expect my first royalty check?

they were headed downhill loooong before NFTs became a thing.

You mean “Postgres”?

edit: huh. both my clients have spoiler tags, but both are apparently broken. I can’t decipher what Lemmy wants me to do for the markdown to fix it, probably the client not displaying it right.

edit 2: yeah, it looks correct on the default browser interface, but both apps I use (Boost for Lemmy and Eternity) fail to render a spoiler.

When I used to rack and stack servers, many moons ago, we would always connect them to a switch with LAN only so we could use SSH/SCP to harden them before they got exposed. This was for .gov stuff that would get attacked instantly.
