Yeah no.

EDIT: Okay, maybe. I’m not a biologist. Mice and human may be more alike than different for all that I know.

nope :(

I think you used to be able to “bootstrap” a proton account with a mail.ru account (which needs no prior email or phone), but I don’t think that works any more

Hi, I recently set up my own email server

• It’s a huge pain in the ass getting things like DMARC and DKIM and whatever to work. Without those, most providers won’t even deliver your messages. But luckily, there are websites that help you check and fix your configuration
• Even once you do get these things set up correctly, most providers will send your outgoing messages straight to the recipient’s spam folder
• That being said, I believe most providers will mark you as “not spam” if the other person initiates the conversation. So this could be a non-problem if you’re making an email for your business and putting it on business cards or something.
• Mullvad (VPN provider) self-hosts their support email, and they seem to be doing fine.

Hope that helps

TBH “Sierra” is a pretty obscure word. I didn’t know about it until the Mac OS release with that name. And given how often “c” makes an “s” sound, that sounds like a reasonable mistake to make if you’ve never heard the word before.

I bet they manufacture AI-enabled vibrators

Like seriously, how do you go from “haha these people have silly horny thoughts” to “you’re an insufferable human being if you can’t get laid”? That sounds like what a middle school bully might say.

Looks like it works! Congrats!

Huh, I thought you were joking, but I just checked on google translate, and apparently the correct way to pronounce “threw” really is the same as “through”. I always pronounced “threw” a bit more in the front of my mouth so it has a different sound. Crazy stuff.

tbh almost every time I see a system settings panel or a program that lets you reduce blue light on a schedule, it’s always accompanied with a description that sounds like “reducing blue light may help you sleep better”. I don’t think there are many people touting it as some sort of scientific neurological thing, it’s just that many users have a personal preference for reduced blue light at nighttime, and the developers want to accommodate that preference. Not everything has to be backed up by scientific research, sometimes people just like things.

What is there to be confused about? They can speak english correctly, but they simply refuse doing so due to a lack of respect for the language. Almost every professor at my uni is also like this: they have the skills to follow grammatical rules, but they don’t owe it to anyone to actually do it. This is normal.

This sounds like a great thing for deaf people and just in general, but I don’t think AI will ever replace anime fansub makers who have no problem throwing a wall of text on screen for a split second just to explain an obscure untranslatable pun.

I don’t have ADHD, but my trick for introducing these chain-of-thought topics back into conversation is like this:

• One degrees of separation: normal topic, can be added to conversation with no introduction
• Two degrees of separation: “You mentioned ______, which made me think of _______”
• More than two degrees of separation: Either don’t bother, or, if it’s really interesting, then wait for a good time and then hit 'em with "Hey guys, sorry to interrupt, this is kind of random but I just thought of… "

Works pretty well most of the time.
