Thinking about switching from Gmail to some other email. They've decided to move their purely Baynesian promotion filter under the same umbrella their AI features are under, so you can't have the first without the second, and I'm fed up. Any suggestions?

I just discovered today that there are Pac-Man clones for the Unix terminal.

People truly will think of everything. Just a little ./configure; make; make install and you're good to go.

MyMan is the best:

The problem with being ruled by Biblical literalists is that since the gold statue isn’t of a calf they’ll be like, “See, it’s not the same!” And totally misunderstand the lesson of Exodus Chapter 32. See, I read the same Bible they did, but even as a kid I understood it was allegorical. These folks have no understanding of literary devices.
