Thank you for a civil and thoughtful response :)

Industry vulnerable to lack of investor money does badly when there is no investor money

If you end up going with Intel anyway, avoid I219-LM (e.g. IBM I340-T2), it has issues where you need to run some commands on startup to disable some of the NIC's features so that it doesn't lose connection for a few m every few days. It's pretty old so you probably won't end up using it, but just putting it out here.

It's funny how this post is just a greentext story about a guy trying to talk to a girl in class. But some of the comments are negative or have such divisive vote ratios: assume bad hygiene or "Seems like an appropriate response to a man who takes a womens studies course to try and pick up women"

Am I the only one that's surprised that the comments are so negative? The interaction from the greentext seems like a somewhat "standard" thing to happen in one's life

This is just about VoLTE that's used for higher bandwidth of voice calls (and HD Voice). Calling works normally, it's just that they don't have the "HD+" icon in the dialer, so they aren't high quality voice calls). It doesn't impact my life very much but it's one of those things that are missing.

I, for one, feel some (shallow) sympathy for the protagonist of this plausibly fake story on the internet. I'm sure he showered and put on roll-on deodorant like a decent citizen, only to be crushed by the reality where social capital has been dwindling for decades, as presented by Robert D. Putnam. In my essay

edit: don't downvote me I'm serious

I don't think they're handling their current scale well just in Europe, even. VoLTE works on a limited number of carriers even in Europe. e.g. only T-Mobile is recommended by FP in Poland, but it's just one of the four large telcos. I wouldn't expand if I was at that point. Plus, they're busy with making their support less horrible (see post on their forum) for now.

edit: damn fp6 doesn't support any Polish carrier, a step down from FP5 https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/9779766652689-How-to-set-up-4G-and-Wi-Fi-Calling

The Fairphone (Gen. 6) comes with a physical switch on the side which, by default, will trigger Fairphone Moments. Fairphone Moments is a brand new minimalist experience to use your Fairphone with fewer distractions. This gives you the freedom to disconnect when you want and stay fully present in real life or customize moments fitted to your own experiences, such as focus and travel modes.

we should improve society somewhat

It's likely a Dell 2725QE, I have the exact same one because it's (or "was" if something new came out) the only choice with the new generation of the IPS Black panel (that has 120FPS) and a USB hub. Samsung (that owns the technology) hasn't released anything yet when I was buying mine.

Before today, mailbox.org's 2FA mechanism was unorthodox. In the login screen, you typed in the TOTP in the password field and then added a 4 digit static pin at the end. This got people confused, as it's different than the usual login+password then TOTP. Now it's just like that.

There's also other goodies, like separate passwords for IMAP and SMTP, WebDAV, CardDAV/CalDAV (one password for both), Exchange Sync. Before today, you'd be using your main mailbox.org password for all of the above. Looks like IMAP access is not even possible without creating a separate password https://kb.mailbox.org/en/private/account-article/how-to-use-two-factor-authentication-2fa/

There doesn't seem to be support for the YubiKey TOTP anymore. No passkeys or hardware webauthn either for now.

mailbox.org is based on OpenXchange.

 

I've been a social media hermit for the past 3 years but recently I've given up and created a few accounts across different apps again. It's unreal how strict the requirements are now.

  1. Give e-mail (ok)
  2. Give phone number (.... eeh, ok)
  3. Use the new account for a while
  4. Account suspended, please upload selfie to continue (no thanks xi). There are also some verification promps where you have to record a video and rotate your face left to right

If this isn't a message to move to indie web I don't know what is
