What's up with the Rust hate?

The Rust community keeps trying to rewrite key pieces of Linux that aren't broken.

They probably have the right idea, in the long run, but it's still fun to give them a hard time about it.

Good info, thanks!

I route my email through my domain names, and so I can reroute emails at the DNS level, but I can see this being important to some folks.

Tuta deletes free accounts that have not been logged into for 6 months.

This, and I heard that some legitimate newly registered free accounts have been wiped a couple days later by anti-bot automation. So I guess one would want to age their Tuta account (or you know, just pay for it) before they trust it with too much.

I've had a free Tuta account for some time without any issues.

I see Proton and Tuta recommended here, often.

I also see complaints about both (Proton's politics and Tuta's tendency to lock and clean free accounts).

Both seem better than Google, who seem to be tightening their grip on those unable to walk away.

I’ve stagnated at my position and have learned just about everything my position can learn.

Get a cloud learning subscription and spend an hour every day learning DevOps skills or something. You're in a great spot. You probably don't need to drive an hour every day just to learn something new.

No. You're restless. But you're asking here because you need someone to tell you to wait for a decent opportunity, which this is not.

Don't take the pay cut.

Don't give up one hour per day to commute.

Don't waste your time and money and health eating lunch away from home.

Keep your ears and eyes open for the right opportunity.

This isn't it. Don't take it. Wait for the right opportunity

I expect that's why the internet's been falling apart lately.

I'm sure it is.

It's been interesting to see people not really getting angry about it, yet.

This...might be canon now. There's a few conversations in Strange New Worlds that feel like the Universal Translator reached its limit of making Vulcans not-rude.

I don't recall the doctor being green, though?

Thank you for your service.
