Mailserver automation maintenance took more effort than expected; newer Alpine releases exclusively ship Dovecot 2.4.x,which changed the config file syntax. Upgrading from 2.3.x left me with quite a mess. But hey, "Carpe juggulum", as pterry used to say.

Seized the opportunity and added a "trickle" feature for throttled sending of bulk messages to sensitive providers, as per @mwl 's insightful "Run your own Mail server" book.

My automation is FOSS and available here: https://github.com/t-lo/mailserver

it has grown to dislike the concept (or more what it perceives as being the implications of for many entities) of polycules a lot. There seems to often be this perception of a polycule being like some kind of club with like memberships (and sometimes even infrastructure (it thinks this one's polycule currently has more than four different SSOs, so lmao) and initiation rites) and like what? no?! being someone's partner doesn't imply any connections to third parties.
Also it kinda doesn't understand this desperate want for having one's partners be friends (or often even for them to be partners, like it got subjected to multiple weird hookup attempts and that always was just awkward), like sure having them not hate each other is good, having them be able to exist in a board game round together is more than it could ever ask for, and everything above that kinda isn't anything that concerns it.
Although this mostly seems to be an (often badly communicated) expectations thing.

Thanks for reading this unordered rant (and or hopes it didn't offend anyone, it at least didn't intend to)

Every dollar you spend at a corporate monolith is a dollar extracted from your community. It’s a vote for a world where Main Street looks like a ghost town and your social media feed is just ads instead of fun.

But every dollar you spend at a small business? That’s a dollar going toward someone’s rent. For the barista’s poetry habit or the cartoonist’s art supply. It’s a dollar that says, "I’d rather live in a world where people thrive than where billionaires buy themselves another yacht."

Actual causes of death in the US and media coverage of same.

And then we wonder why people have such a skewed understanding of the world.

ourworldindata.org is a treasure. Thanks, hannahritchie.bsky.social and colleagues.

Did you know that there was a Wii that used wired Wii Remotes, couldn't be accessed by players, yet could swap between 22 retail titles? In our latest feature article, we look at the weird, the wonderful, the Starlight Wii.

Starlight Spotlight: A Hospital Wii in a New Light

In the early 1990s, the world found itself at a crossroads of technological change. Electronic entertainment was blowing up just about everywhere, with Nintendo at the forefront of the home video game markets with their Super Nintendo Entertainment System console and Game Boy handheld. But if you were forced into an extended stay at the hospital, you might not have access to any of it. Due to a wave of concerns surrounding electromagnetic interference (EMI) from electronics, many consumer devices were banned from hospitals. If you were lucky enough to have a cell phone at the time, you'd have to go outside of the hospital to make calls. In 1992, the Starlight Children's Foundation partnered with Nintendo to bring video games into hospitals in a way that complied with stringent hospital regulations. Instead of subjecting children to magazines, books, and daytime television (if they were lucky), the foundation wanted to bring premiere entertainment right into their rooms by creating a hospital approved all-in-one media and gaming station. Their belief was that giving kids a well-needed break from the hardships of treatment, injury, and illness would promote recovery. This partnership proved to be a valuable one, and is still going to this day. As of the writing of this article, this partnership has provided over 8,000 gaming stations to children in hospitals, serving over 15 million gaming sessions to patients in need. From the Super Nintendo all the way to the Nintendo Switch, every Nintendo home console has been housed in a Starlight kiosk at some point! Each of these kiosks were designed to house an off-the-shelf retail console. Except one. Every single kiosk could use standard controllers and play retail games. Except one. In this article, we'd like to talk about the weird and wonderful Starlight Wii.
