I’m not sure why people are trying convince me to change my mind on something.

I have seen it in my logs with my own eyes. I wish I could be left alone without having to bother looking into it.

Whatever the reason is. Someone is crawling through dictionaries of address. It is slow but steady. It started with abuse@ and other generic addresses and then started trying names. I blocked the sending SMTP server once I realized what was going-on.

What am I suppose to do? Ignore it and just triage in inbox?

Is the concept of invasion not clear?

You don’t have to ask once you invaded.

Sure this is an unlikely scenario but saying Donald can’t afford to lose a partnership by invading an allied country is not understanding the problem.

This is not at all my experience with custom mail domains.

And I say that after spending a lot of time setting SPF, DKIM and DMARC filtering.

I guess you got lucky.

Does it?

Do you think spammer will just stop at the first address and then call it a day?

In my experience there is no such thing as a “catch all” domain address. The second your domain leaks then many spammer will just go into a frenzy and try hundreds or thousands of mail aliases.

Especially since they can’t really spam Gmail as easily (since early 2024) they will even more aggressively spam any other domain.

I’m a bit skeptical on the Email alias feature but this is a really cool project.

I just don’t know how practical it is to use custom domains to receive those confirmation emails.

Wouldn’t you receive a ton of spam once your email domain leaks (which will eventually happen)?

Email is also useful for password reset.

The way I see it, innovation is a product like anything else in the context of capitalism.

Sam Altman wanted openAI to be non profit in its innovation but this was incompatible with capitalism that identifies it as a product with value.

So basically capitalism tries to find monetary value in anything so it can be sold because the ultimate goal is money.

Innovation is a byproduct of capitalism searching for new things to sell.

(Disclaimer : I understand Sam Altman probably never genuinely wanted to innovate for free, this is just a posture)

Americans realize how deadly corporate greed hits people in health care -> proceeds to elect Trump.

It’s Leopard season I suppose.

If I’m not mistaken the people behind Videolan also did x264 which is a pretty major library used to encode h.264.

It’s a lesser known project from videolan but with a rather broad use online.

Ah I get it.

Anyway low consumption kind of mandates that kind of flash build IMO.

Isn’t there any way you could stagger buying those SSD? Like you buy them one by one only on sales or refurbished hardware.

You could also maybe attempt a raid5 only with only 3 disks until you could buy a fourth one?

Anyway good luck!

I’m sorry if this is not relevant but I don’t have the time to read that whole of text:

I think this is at least similar to what you want to achieve.
