๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ. Work in technology, talk about politics. All opinions regrettably my own. He/they. Also https://bsky.app/profile/bpye.ca They/them.

Is there another email host that like Fastmail will allow multiple aliases, for multiple domains to land in a single inbox, and also allow fetching/sending email via a third party such as a gmail.com address?

I am generally content with Fastmail, but it's one of very few services I still use that is hosted in the US at this point...

Doesn't actually fix my bug though.

The retro scaling option disappears from the Arc software when my U4025QW is connected. However whatever you set with it disconnected stays active..?

Thanks Intel.

Amazing. Search for exactly "igretroscale github" and Google cannot find https://github.com/dantmnf/igretroscale

DDG and Kagi have it as the first result.

@cwebber Having OpenClaw installed without my consent is some of the nastiest malware I've seen in a while :(

Apparently chardet got Claude to rewrite the entire codebase from LGPL to MIT?

https://github.com/chardet/chardet/releases/tag/7.0.0

That is one way to launder GPL code I guess?

Ground-up, MIT-licensed rewrite of chardet. Same package name, same public API โ€” drop-in replacement for chardet 5.x/6.x. Just way faster and more accurate! Highlights: MIT license (previous versi...
