I used Njalla. It worked fine for me and was really simple to manage. In the end I decided to switch since their strength is also their weakness. You don’t own the domain, they own it. They register it to their name and you can manage it but when they go bankrupt (doesn’t look like it) or decide you are violating their terms (and maybe you aren’t but they still decide that you are) they can cancel your service and you are not able to get your domain back, since it was never in your name.

There are stories from people who lost their domain. But I only heard about this from others and I always find it questionable about why these people are coming out with these kind of stories, were they really not violating the terms or were they and are just upset that they got caught…

Njalla works this way to make sure nobody knows who you are and who registered the domain, because even if law enforcement would ask for the owner at the tld registrar they would get Njalla as the owner. And you don’t need to let Njalla know who you are, so that’s where it ends. But in the end I got nervous that someday they would cancel my domains or that they decided to stop the service and I would lose access to my domains and email. Is that a legit fear? Probably not. I have had domains with them for 5 years and never had a problem. You can transfer your domain since you can request the transfer key via the admin page and you will recieve one instantly. So you don’t really notice not owning the domain until something happens. Would I recommend them? Sure, if you want extra privacy and are fine with no ability to prove ownership of a domain might something happen.

I now have my domains at https://flokinet.is/. A company based in Iceland. The site is from the '10s and the billing section is slow but they where mentioned as a privacy friendly option as well and apart from the transfer (I did things wrong with DNSSEC and they where a bit slowish with response, but mostly due to my impatience) I haven’t had a problem with them.

That’s what Trump wants, right? To isolate the US from other countries and let them work stuff out themselves? Looks like his strategy is working. But of course cry baby wants to be included and mingle in other countries’ business.

Fully agree with your point, but to be fair Steam sucked balls in the OG Counter Strike days. It was dretchingly slow, buggy and nobody wanted to use it. So other stores sucking balls in the beginning by being buggy is not that strange. Although all the anti-consumer stuff is not bad programming, just bad morals.

While the headline is meant to be sensational, I think this is a good reason for Mexico to invade the US. The ammoterrorists need to be stopped from taking over the Mexican streets!

/s, kinda…

https://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings-article/hicss/2012/06149194/12OmNyKJiDq doesn’t support my claim since on the aggregate level it’s reduced and on individual level it remains the same. But to not be too biased (by my own claim), thought it was worthwhile to post it. They do say here that it only reduced malicious comments by 0.9% (so it didn’t increase).
Here it says it doesn’t help. This article says discrimination increases, but I can’t find the original source. They say real names are better then full anonimity, but worse then pseudonimity.

But searching for the right study, I can’t seem to find it. Only news articles claiming it, but that’s not much of a study. So maybe I shouldn’t have said it increases, but it doesn’t decrease (depending on which study and which aggregate level you look at). A lot of articles point at facebook where people need to use their real name but still post a lot of unfriendly stuff.

There have been a few studies that say scams, discrimination, racism and bullying will increase when people are forced to use their real name. In this case it’s probably because off a different reason, but still.

This is the only app I’ve never changed in the last decade (or for how long they have existed). Sometimes I see something new come by and I wonder if I need to switch, but Todoist just works for me. All others (notetaking, calendar, browser, etc.) have changed multiple times, but this one is steady. Also just the right amount of updates and changes.

Pre-ordering is dead, live paid alpha testing is booming. There are so many games in development (alpha or beta testing) which can be bought. And as soon as the game is in the ballpark of “finished” it get’s the v1.0 mark. And way before that, there are already DLC’s available for an unfinished game.

Me too, it’s so absurd.

“shower freedom”, this has to be a late april fools right? RIGHT?!

Thanks, that’s good to know. Going to update it right away, hopefully this will solve my problem.

That looks nice. Added it to my list to look at. Thanks.

You’ve got a good point with Home Assistant. I have automations setup so that I barely have to do anything manually. So I almoat forget that Home Assistant runs quite a lot in my home. And especially in the beginning it was nice to setup but not really needed. Know it is needed.

I didn’t know if this was something I was missing, but man this could be my new number 1. The import function is really great. I’ve already added a lot of recipes. Thanks!

I’ve installed it as well but the blackout/redact feature didn’t work as expected…So not sure if it will be that useful for me. But since I ditched Adobe, I now at least have a PDF editor.

You’ve just made me waste the next 2 days, because this sounds great! Only thing I’m a bit hesitant about is trusting all bridge makers. I’m a bit more aware that I use a lot of FOSS where it could be easy for the dev’s to just go rogue. But that’s still better than giving it away to some closed source company.

Looks really great. I’m depending on Synology for CalDav and WebDav but if I can move away from that to make switching NAS in the future easier, that would be great.

Uhm, not quite sure what you mean? My remark about Iran was to think out loud why Netanyahu would say Hamas is sabotizing the cease-fire. He doesn’t want to look weak or like he lost. Iran says Israel lost, that is not acceptable for Netanyahu and his PR.

Saying this could be part of the plot, or old Benji didn’t think Hamas would agree to a ceasefire and now he’s fucked. Also Iran saying Israel lost probably didn’t help.

Fuck me, I’m tired of this shit. Sure let’s just make a clusterfuck bigger and drag another nuclear capable (?) country further into the conflict. Fuck off you dumb mf’s. Yes the attack on Israel was terrible, but don’t try to hide your (Netanyahu’s) faults by starting wars and killing other people. And don’t let me hear the “they started” argument, you look like fucking childeren.
