Just a quick add: even for my self hosted services, I configure Postfix with Mailgun for SMTP relay for alerts and whatnot just to ensure delivery to my external mail provider.

Edit: a few words for clarity

Just passing along what I've read many times: that self hosting email can be difficult. Particularly sending, because the large providers tend to treat email from less known sources with more skepticism (such as by marking as spam), even with properly configured SPF and DKIM.

And if your server is down, you may miss any incoming mail for the duration. I don't know if other providers would try resending after a period of time if the receiver is unreachable, but I doubt it (just an educated guess).

I love self hosting services but email is something I've decided not to touch with a ten foot pole.

I dunno, they're eyeing you like YOU might be on the menu before long.

This hits close for me in a slightly different way.

I kept up with very few high school friends past college, but one was my best friend who, to my knowledge, is straight. We regularly exchanged messages, and even though we were geographically challenged (he moves around the country/world a lot), I fell harder for him year after year.

About 18 months ago (14 years we graduated from HS) I finally expressed my feelings, shortly after we got together in our hometown for the first time in a while. I received no response and haven't heard from him since. He's not homophobic and the worst I expected was some temporary awkwardness, so I was totally unprepared for that.

While the crush has mostly worn off because of this, I'm still devastated that I seem to have lost my longest and best friend. So mine isn't so much a story about one who got away as it is being spurned by one I trusted. I'm a bit bitter right now but I do hope to reconnect with him some day.

+1 for Fastmail.

I've been using it for about 3 years. I'm on the Standard plan (middle tier). It's $4.20/mo. per user when prepaying for 3 years and ranges up to $5.40/mo. for monthly billing.

Not sure if there's a (practical) limit on domains or aliases, but I have 7 domains and a few aliases plus a wildcard. Includes 30GB of storage per user.

I read "server" as computer server and was really confused...

For pizza, I love Pizza Wizard for Detroit style (which was new for me in the last year) or Mr. Shoes for a more traditional style. Joe's Brooklyn has good NY style thin crust.

Calabresella's has great sub, salads (pasta, potato, etc.) and desserts. Also DiBellas's for subs.

Naan-tastic is a local Chipotle-style Indian place that I love. And for some spice, The King and I is a Thai place that can make some dishes that knock your socks off (if you convince them you can handle more than typical white guy spice).

That's crazy. I'm interested to hear the story of the guy at the front desk. It seems like he picked up the phone, but he wasn't in a rush to either help the woman or call the police. He was more concerned with that monitor.

I really like the lighting in the second photo.

While I love the first two for their almost psychedelic quality, I don't know that they fit here for a banner. But I'd love to see them...somewhere. They have almost a gamer quality to them.

I like this , but I see what you're saying about the backgrounds. I think it would look great with transparent backgrounds so they'd blend in with the theme.

I haven't read it, but thank you for sharing. I've placed a hold for the e-book with my library.

The "collapse" of the government in a parliamentary system means the government no longer commands the confidence of a majority of the (typically) lower house, in this case the House of Representatives. Nothing immediate happens, although the prime minister may (or may not) resign, a "caretaker" government takes over until a new elections are held.

Here, it sounds like one of the four coalition parties has pulled out due to disagreeemnt over immigration, which the coalition parties had never agreed on.

I like having storage on a dedicated box. I've been using TrueNAS/FreeNAS for about ten years and I'm happy with it. In my case, when I was first building the storage box, I wasn't really looking for a hypervisor like PVE for running other services so FreeNAS made sense. I used jails for a while before acquiring the NUC I have PVE running on now and migrated everything from jails to containers, and I'm now deliberate about not running anything on the TrueNAS box that isn't directly related to storage.

Yeah I have the same problem. I've been testing both Mlem and Memmy and I was in the latter when I first saw your post. Switched over to Mlem and the image doesn't preload and I don't see a way to open it.

And messages

He's hiding from the braincell. It must be nearby.

A fitting name with his sterling silver coloring.

Tons of breweries. Swiftwater, Roc Brewing Company, Fifth Frame Brewing Co., Three Heads, a bar called The Richmond that's owned by Mortalis Brewing and has many of their beers on tap, Fattey Beer Company, Genesee Brew House, Heroes Brewing Company, and I'm sure more that I can't think of. And those are just within the city limits.

The Strong Museum of Play is also about to open a 90 thousand square foot, two-story expansion on June 30.

Strong Museum closed to prepare for expansion, will re-open last day of June

That feels like my day.

There's a new /c/oneorangebraincell community that would love to see this guy.
