They did not. They bought postini. Before then spam was really, really bad on gmail.

Anyone that was around while Reddit was growing will remember that there were few subreddits to begin with. I think fediverse needs that to happen before expanding.

I don’t know how to fix it. Maybe sub-feddits need to be pruned if they aren’t thriving. Maybe tags in titles would be more helpful until they have enough content to warrant their on category.

A lot of the responses are offering an all or none response. The issue isn’t OP wants to block all memes posts, they just don’t want to see them as often.

This is an algorithm/fedi issue I suspect. It would require curation.

Since fedi isn’t really about that, the only option is to downvote.

Downvote shitty memes.

Pay for that?

$. Almost every reason for shutting off boils down to lack of financial support to keep it running.

Yeah Singapore has good public transit options but it doesn’t handle everything.

Many people own cars though and the certificate is transferable and is part of the car loan, so it mostly becomes a monthly cost.

If you’re trying to show off in Singapore you have multiple cars in your own garage, including an old super car and an suv you use to drive to your boat club where you can take your boat out for the day.

As long as I can still make my character look like a 65 year old gender fluid meth addict I’ll play it.

If I wanted to do this today I would use iTunes and an old iPhone as the mp3 player. I would use an old laptop to rip, or iTunes to purchase.

I manage storage systems as part of my day job. i think you would be happy with a simple direct attached storage device. You’d need a storage controller card and a storage controller. These are usually enterprise-grade items so they might be expensive. I suspect there are SATA options but SATA is pretty slow.

QNAP and Synology are decent for what they offer, if you like the idea if turning it on, setting up an account, and then having access to both native and an easy 3rd-party store with no fiddling needed then they are a good idea. You can also setup an iSCSI connection for direct-attached storage over the network.

It’s used for out of band management. With the correct hardware items (nic and gpu) it’s called vPro. With the proper certificate and supporting infrastructure it can auto-enroll into a management service such as SCCM. It allows companies to remotely view logs, bios settings and other items. With vPro it can include a complete remote KVM solution.

You can disable it from most UEFI settings interfaces without worry of causing other issues.

Sadly that looks more like a parts car to me, but getting it running and stopping makes for a good flip.

It’s the websites with ads that heat up my phone so much it hurts that are the problem.

I just looked they have a service called “alternative port 25” that addresses this issue.

Honestly though, once you start adding up costs for these workarounds you have to wonder if it’s easier to just get a business internet circuit, cloud security gateway, or just host the email online.

You can use a port reflector service. No ip.com might still offer it. Basically forwards anything incoming to their ip on port 25 to your ip and whatever port you specify.

I’m not saying 120k is great, but I’m suspect that a timing chain slipped off at 150k with obvious signs of impending failure. Maybe the local mechanic they took it too wasn’t following the recommended inspection interval? Most shops only care that you replace your nearly new oil every 3k miles and sell you $50 wiper blades. I’ve never had a non-dealer pull out a factory maint schedule.

Does your insurance have a Teladoc? Call.

I’m pretty sure I read the chain on genesis engines gets replaced at 120k if applicable.

Google accomplished their goal of increasing internet usage. Where ever they threatened to go the local isp suddenly got their act together.

I’m suggesting local government 1)provide a baseline service and 2) treat last-mile delivery like a utility. In the pockets of the US where local government or utility provider is also an ISP, I have yet to hear of people being upset with it. It’s usually something crazy like $15/mo for 500/50 speeds that comes out of your water/trash/electric bill.

I’m not saying what they are doing/did is best. I think it’s been mishandled for decades. I’m just saying this is how the government “thinks” and why cost overruns and corruption is often lower on the priority list.

I’d rather the service providers be threatened with local government ownership if they mishandle the deal.

In fact I think last-mile delivery should be provided by the local government and be subsidized by taxes to some extent. Residents should have the option to use public funded internet with baseline bandwidth targets, have the ability to choose a different ISP that’s managed at a local colo going over the public wires, or choose a last mile isp using their own private wired or wireless infrastructure.
