Yep, and in the statement they're referring to, it explicitly suggests that their users should set up PGP.

Some additional context:

It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as "edgy humor". Make of it what you will. I think there's been some growing up, since they don't offer/support those domains now.

Context is important.

It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as "edgy humor". Clearly there's been some growing up, since they don't offer/support those domains now.

Domains you could register an email with them at.

Ugh, yeah.

They were started by 4chan users, back when that sort of thing was more accepted there as "edgy humor". Glad they grew up.

Yeah, I don't know why they don't have the normal "what is this" text from their main page at least at the bottom or something.

cock.li offers free email service with no personal info needed for signup. They've done this for 11 years, with no major outages to my knowledge, relying only on donations without explicitly asking for them or bugging their users.

I think at some point they also offered paid VPS services.

Very useful for accounts that you don't want connected to your other "identities", but where you'll still need them associated with a real email for things like password resets.

It's also tor friendly.

If you're a sucker for side content, there's a ton of short stories and novellas (even a musical) that the fans have translated: I just got Ending E | The Ark Wiki

Kept the setting alive for just a little longer, and added some more context to the world and characters. Massive spoilers for anyone who hasn't beat Automata though.

The only reason that's any different than any other time Microsoft has released a new OS is that more people own computers now than ever before, improvements in hardware power have slowed significantly, and people are more outspoken online now.

It's still not reasonable to expect them to support all hardware forever on an aging codebase.

I understand the frustration, but this isn't some new thing for this new OS in particular.

Flashing your lights or highbeams to pass is seen as quite agressive in the US. It isn't taught in drivers ed, and the general interpretation I hear most people have of it isn't "Hey, could you let me pass?" but instead "Hey! Fuckface! Stop driving so goddamn slow and get out of the damn way you shithead!"

Doesn't help that in my experience, the only people flashing to pass are aggressively tailgating me when I'm already 10 mph or more over the speed limit.

Better to just pass on the right if there's room. And if there isn't room, fuck off telling someone to get out of your way. Not like they can get over anyway.

Don't you know that it's entirely unreasonable to expect your users to have hardware that's a standard feature on any machine made in the last ten years, that can be added to existing systems for around $30 and a free card slot? /s

I don't think I'll ever understand the insistence that a TPM module is a bridge too far.

I mean, it definitely is, but it also has been since Episode 2 came out.
