I've been reasonably happy with Runbox. Decent features, pricing, and servers in Norway. The webmail isn't great, but I don't really use it. If you must have encryption, I think the only option is Tuta.

Cutting videos with copy can result in some weird playback issues if the cuts aren't on keyframes. For manually cutting up videos, I use LosslessCut, which I think uses ffmpeg under the hood and is really helpful for finding and cuttin

Come on, I think you're just looking for things to get upset about (and not engaging with the content in any meaningful way). Assigning specific (and colorful) names to scams/cons has always been a thing. See - Pig in a poke http

Hardening is absolutely not what crowdstrike sells. They essentially sell OS monitoring and anomaly detection. OS monitoring involves minimizing the attack surface, usually by minimizing the number of services running and limiting the abili

A video call is excessive, but a phone call seems fine, even good. Far better than just being ghosted after many hours of interviewing.

Seems like this may not have been an outage, but intentional while they worked on fixing a longstanding vulnerability. https://threadreaderapp.com/scrolly/1734802168723734764

I mean everything is copyrighted anyway. It's harder to give up copyright than to keep it, so the main point is despite copyright protections, most companies do not publish their code publicly at all. For code that has to be pushed to

I use OpenSUSE a lot for both desktop and servers, and it’s great. The biggest downside though is that it probably has the least friendly and helpful community of any Linux or BSD distro I’ve ever used. Questions on their forums are frequen

I don't see how this proves anything. This isn't how human languages came about, there's a lot of conlang content online, and this doesn't describe a complete language anyway.
