Ayo. The country that has

  • a stifling work culture
  • zero tolerance porn laws
  • full blown internet censorship
  • chaebols
  • harsh punishment on even the softest of "drugs"
  • miniscule support for new families

is definitely not authoritarian.

It's okay. With the childbirth rate they have currently, they don't have to worry for much longer. Let's just squeeze the last out of the current generations.

Very high demand trade. Same as roofing, plumbing. Edge case.

You set up the forwarding in google, not proton. You mark the forwarded emails in your proton mailbox. You forward the emails to your proton account until you changed all the sources that you care about from your google to your proton mailbox. Then you turn off forwarding.

Google never gets any more data from you except your protonmail address.

It's more like WhatsApp or messenger (pick your poison on which one I am referring). Fairly lightweight. No useless features. And I think there's an F-Droid version, running as Molly.

I've just tried it and whoa! Whole new world.

I work on an application that went through multiple iterations of UIs. Each superseded the previous one and a new admin UI was built into them. The oldest one was using Flash.

Occasionally I still have to drill down through four layers of "open legacy UI here" to get to some obscure, long forgotten setting. Manipulating shit with half-working elements in a VM running a flash-capable browser. Day to day I just go back one iteration though, because the admin UI has everything I need there. Unlike the latest iteration.

Some day we play on killing off the flash UI version completely. We already have planned workarounds in place to manipulate those obscure settings through endpoint calls. Won't be missed. But I'd miss the second to last admin UI that has everything where I need greatly.

This is what ms is killing off now. A good UI in windows where you can find everything. And all it'd have taken to make it better is give it a robust search functionality. No one cares about going back and forth in convoluted loops between sleek UI pages. People that care to manage stuff in windows at depth will be forced into shallow shit.

The mini sweepers work just fine in both Toronto and Montreal. Heck, in Montreal they clear the bike lanes even in the winter, often better than the roads. Additionally the local bike share is open 365 days a year now, they are equipped with studded tires between November and April.

Curious to hear about your experience.

Strap between toes is the worst feeling ever. No thanks.

Why is it important in this day and age to learn about memory management? That's like saying it's important to learn cursive, when it really isn't.

Dilettante here. How hard or easy is it to switch back and forth between X11 and Wayland?

Curios, what sets Vivaldi apart so much in features that makes it hard to switch to Firefox?
