And I still don't understand how people enjoy it...
Their fairy tale books says animals exist for humans, so good luck changing their minds.

Re:Thunderbird to add automatic encryption after 21 years on Friday March 31, 2023 @07:35AM (#35385491)
My last company used S/Mime, but it required a dedicated appliance on both ends and a key server to provide the public key from the sending appliance to the receiving one. It's complicated and not practical for most people, but it worked quite well and is used by some big orgs.

That said, the bigger issue is how messages are stored at rest. Basically all the major email providers support and use TLS at this point, which is plenty strong enough for most mail in transit if you're only worried about the body of the message.

I think we need to worry about mail at rest before trying to make in transit encryption stronger. What's the point of anything stronger than TLS in transit if GMail can just read the full unencrypted message?

Those are not regulated. I think you missed the point.
Please elaborate.

Though I typically use rsync these days, FTP can be useful for copying files to and from a Linux server when the client is a Windows machine.

I for one would prefer civil rights. The most dangerous people I have ever met were cops. I can protect myself from the individual non-state backed fascist.
I don't think that follows as well as you think.

If the primary goal is survival based primarily on efficient use of energy. A lot of evolution is about organisms becoming more efficient by adapting to their environment. So then keeping unnecessary junk around is inefficient and we would expect orgasms that lose to would benefit and out breed the others.

Why not just use the default instance? I believe it's already filled in (or at least mentioned on the page where you enter one) if you go to their website and follow their links.

We need to do both. Change is coming, no stopping that, but how much change we can effect.

You could just use ZFS. I like butter, and maybe keeping your Metadata on a different raid level helps, but it torched my aray a couple times so I switched and have had no issues.

Someone watched Mythbusters...
The main problem with the police union (in the US) is that they have been able to repeatedly stop officers who have done horrible things from being fired or even truly punished (paid leave is not punishment).

I think it's pretty close to perfect at this point and is a million times better that the interface they had when I started using it nearly 10 years ago.

Make sure you put a filter on the outside of your house if it is hooked to the cable system so you don't create feedback and screw everyone else around you who are using the cable system.

I thought that was funny too. Also, after following a link below I wonder if it has to do with this.

SDF Public Access TWENEX

TWENEX.ORG

In 1994 we contacted Texas Women University to try to resurrect their DECSYSTEM-2065

I was not aware of it either, but it appears to not be able to do as much from the discription.
