STARTTLS on port 110 is was a very common configuration. So you wouldn't tell anything in the logs from simply the port number.

Fear not! It's entirely possible the category was chosen by an AI. Editorial automation would probably reduce the error rate here.

I still can't believe Russia didn't figure out their Chinese tires didn't really fail because they didn't "exercise" them enough

Mouse-over your name to the upper right, select "Options", then under "Layout" uncheck "Icons" and save. No more Borg Gates, No more DEC logo. One less thing to get worked up about.

It's only that now, roughly 25 years late, even the dimest of dimwitts in the political sphere have noticed that proprietary software is shitty by design and expensive and thus plan to move to FOSS rather than continue spending trillions of Euros on software that experts have downloaded for free and in better quality from the intarwebs for decades now. One should never say never I guess.

It's only by coincidence that that software (mostly) happens to come out of the US. Which is totally beside the point of why FOSS is gaining traction anyway. FOSS from the US will certainly be part of that transition too.

He can't hear you over all the WINNING!

Doctor Jesus, anyway...

It's not most authoritative. It's most common. Now you learned another thing about dictionaries today! You're a winner!

Are the nukes in reality with us? For a value of "us" that does not include you.

Not sure why you're in here with that when there's a whole discussion about it elsewhere but: They publicly made statements that the software would continue to work. They then later edited that page and changed the printed publishing date to the revision date but the internet archive came to the rescue as usual, which is why all the corporations want it destroyed.

Since they made a public promise that it would continue to work, that opens them up for lawsuits even in the USA. In Europe as well as a number of countries elsewhere, what they did was illegal regardless; here in the USA it's only illegal because they did a bait and switch.

I'm sure attacking them is wrong because it's not necessary. I'm also sure he isn't doing it for the right reasons. Also, after we blew up those allegedly narco-trafficking boats, when the death penalty is not even the punishment for that in this country, nobody should believe we aren't the terrorists.

You don't understand how the dictionary works.

Merriam-Webster's website states that one of the definitions of robot is "a mechanism guided by automatic controls", e.g. a robot airplane.

Now I'm going to explain something that your mommy should have explained for you when you were very little: all of the definitions in the dictionary are valid, not just the one you like.

I will also accept "stupid".

Precious snowflakes can't have what they want, so they show their opinions don't matter by staying home.

Sure, why bother diverting the arrow headed for your eye to your ear?

The only way we're getting a real third party option is if we get a real voting option. I don't see a route to ranked choice voting in this country, but it is "the" solution.

I don't disagree with your assessment of the Democrats. I disagree with your assessment of the value of voting. When lots of people vote for the Dems, politics tends to move leftwards. People who want to stomp their feet and demand change now but who aren't willing to pick up torches and pitchforks are. stupid. fucks. who. are. sabotaging. all. of. us. If you won't actually do something substantive, then at least vote.

So yes, at best not voting because you cannot have the candidate you want is lazy. At the very best.

Well, really that was corporate-speak for "... confirms that, if we don't respond, Apple's Neo is going to steal a huge chunk of our current customer base."

We recently bought our daughter a Neo. I've used it, and it seems pretty nice... but (compared to the various Mac laptops I've used/owned over the years) I found I got annoyed by the non-backlit keyboard more than I expected.

I would be curious to see whether one can easily load Linux Mint onto that Dell. It might make a really nice portable Linux laptop, if everything worked.
