I've read this with concerning frequency, was SPF/DMARC/DKIM all in order? I also have to question if it was a matter of IP reputation, since shared hosting IP ranges are usually pretty thrashed.

I rent mailbox services (for a custom domain) from a local ISP and don't have problems with deliverability as such.

Rust By Example is very good for showing the ropes in a very practical way, that's how I got up and running with it.

Secondly is the O’Reilly book Programming Rust, which is probably closer to what you want, it explains the actual technical details of much of the language, and to me seems written for an audience that already knows programming. Lastly would be Rust for Rustaceans by No Starch Press, if you actually do want to pursue Rust further, as it discusses very, very in detail the systems of the language, and how they can be used to make something so powerful like Serde.

Maybe give it a try; it's my favorite language to write programs in now, it has an extremely good standard library, and for everything else there's a mass of high quality crates, its build system is actually competent and makes compiling on Windows or Linux trivial, plus many, many more quality of life features.

What a wonderfully enchanting exploration of Gorton.

I've had a soft spot for Gordon Modified for a long time, I use Signature Plastics keycaps on almost all my keyboards, with its wonderful rounded characters . There's just something about it, easy on the eyes, immediately legible at even small scales, it's a comfort font.

At what level? I get a student email from my college (outlook based) as do the professors, though communication is primarily through Canvas. So that's what I see most often in that context.

I think a lot of people have Gmail incidentally for things like YouTube and other Google account stuff, very few people know you can even bring your own mail.

I still see lots of different emails out there, outlook/hotmail is still huge, yahoo occasionally, icloud in the US.

Among my techy friend circle all of us have either our own self hosted mail, a 'privacy' company email, or something in the middle.

All to say, I don't think it's that uphill of a battle for the very large percentage of Internet users to accept the way federation works.

Regardless if it was the plan, it's the result.

I can't stand what it has become, especially when some of the most problematic subs have massive influence over the rest of the site, like wsb.

Yeah, I was starting to feel a bit crazy with how many were coming out of the woodwork with almost exactly that same wording, even in my city's sub.

I finally made the move to setting up an account here and wean my reddit usage.

It's getting so bad on there, so many bots, trolls, and paid agitators. Plus the uptick in fascist apologists. Smaller communities with higher bars to entry produce better conversation, in my experience.

In my experience these "containment" boards/servers/sections tend not to work.

Long term it basically just creates a place that attracts those you don't want, and becomes place for those ideologies to spread. Then it either gets bad enough they take over (you know the site) or they break off wholesale and form a new community dedicated to those worst impulses (pyrrhic victory at best).

The best policy is to actively moderate, and in the case of the fediverse, defederate, those groups and those that give them shelter.

Unfortunately I don't think Verbatim manufactures any quad-layer discs, so Sony was the only real option for 128GB disks.

Furthermore, M-Disc is still very pricey per-GB, and their non M-Disc BD disks aren't priced that much better. I've also recently got a spindle of Verbatim BDXLs that every single one would fail to either write or read at the layer transitions, so having a single option here is already proving to be painful.

Honestly a 2% failure rate on CPU seems… high?

It's just about the last component I'd look at when diagnosing issues owing to that, it's usually: Storage, RAM, Motherboard, PSU, before I start giving a CPU side eye.

The only CPU I've seen go bad was an Intel one that static electricity on the USB somehow completely killed.

This is also me ignoring Intel's recent manufacturing misstep that killed much of the 13-14th gen parts.
