@eta Or if we're being ecological you know, and healthy, the live rosin in bulk.

@eta Honestly, where's the weed vapes? It's not complete without it.

er, I meant to say impossible vs implausible.

Anyways, I would still be interested in supporting your email server monthly. I have to warn you, I might be an annoying customer, but I might also be able to help you diagnose and fix issues, and make the system better.

@tty

with cyberia's email server nullhex.com, I have used a 3rd party service called glockapps to help test broad email deliver-ability across a lot of providers -- I just looked at their site and it looks even more gross and corpo / catering to spammers than it used to ... so I wanted to check to see if it still works at all.

Yes this is a very much "hold your nose" situation, but I found this tool to be helpful.

Interestingly, today I have learned something:

Microsoft now spammfolders non-allowlisted domains instead of outright /dev/null-ing them. Hey, that's a big improvement!! difference between the possible and the implausible I suppose 🙄

If you are curious, this is what the output for our server looks like:

@tty

Hi, kira. I'm interested. I have some questions about the service:

Did you ever manage to get the ability to deliver email to Microsoft email properties like Outlook? If so, I'm curious how you managed that.

Do you have a continuity plan? How many people have access to the Registrar account for the domain name of the email server, and to the email server itself ?

I always wanted to do email myself but to be honest I'm still working on building up the infrastructure and capability to be able to support it in a way that I would feel is replicable.

@KimCrayton1 I agree! I have been telling people that i think I'm racist for a long time. (And then trying to explain what you just explained in this thread)

I don't like this situation 😣 But I agree that acknowledging it is much better than trying to stay comfortable by ignoring it.

@reese T+048C? Lol

@austin

thick stews/curries have some base ingredient which is the reason why they're thick.

If you're talking French food, you would start with a roux. That's butter and flour cooked in the bottom of the pan until it browns. Then the liquid is added while folding and stirring to try to minimize lumps.

If you're a American vegan punk, you might make your curry out of squash. boil or roast a butternut and huck it in a blender with some olive oil.

Others may use full fat yogurt, coconut milk, mashed tubers, mashed legumes, etc.

Powder mashed potatoes can be a quick fix maybe ?

And then there's cornstarch which I would view as more of a last resort or a final slight adjustment at the end.

A small amount of corn starch is added to a small cup. Cold water is mixed in until it's fairly homogenized and there's no lumps. And then the mixture is poured into the hot soup while stirring.

@handle I just first try rolled "kinda awake viper chap" Which sounds like it was not randomly generated, but it actually was

🐍🎩

@handle I solved the "how do you generate a secure password" problem by just writing the code myself.

Obviously, that's not something that the average person can do, but I hope at least that I'm improving the situation by publishing my result.

Sometimes I don't even use that thing though. I just think up random words. it will be some word or weird train of thought that comes from something that happened that day or from a news article that I saw that day. And after I choose a word, then I start over and try to find another separate source of something random to choose a word based off of.

I'm sure that this produces slightly less entropy than a dice roll would, but honestly, I don't think it really matters. I don't think anyone brute forces these kinds of things.

@handle Diceware is for encryption key seeds imo.

Guess and check style passwords, like a debit card pin, don't actually need to have that much entropy in them. They just need to not follow obvious patterns and to be unique. And unfortunately, they also need to be flexible enough to adhere to whatever stupid draconian password policy will be forced on the user.

If I was going to teach someone one thing about passwords, I would probably teach them Password Manager + paper backup. Am I cheating? Is that two things? I don't know. If I had to cut it down to one thing I might choose paper.
