Choosing the right business email provider is important as email contains a lot of sensitive business data! Thatโs why we compare four options that many know from work: Tuta Mail, Zoho Mail, Gmail, and Outlook, to help you decide which email service โฆ
@adrianvia Actually I was on Zoho for their cheaper prices but the inbox is too convoluted, and getting different addresses and folders to work was also hidden in the settings. My Zoho account is still valid but I was fed up so I moved to tuta, very happy with it. If only I could make it pink ๐ค
If you compare stuffs, compare what is comparable. As much as I hate Microsoft and Google, they are part of a suite. That's why companies select them so you can't just compare Tuta with Outlook and Gmail.
and are emails encrypted when sending to the 99.99% of people or companies that don't use Tuta, without sending a seperate password (that will not be used and instead your mail will be lost when sending mail >99% of companies)?
eu has its problems and they seem to be not highlighted when they should be. Better than just silicon valley running the world though, but we can do better than a choice between a rock and a hard place
Again with this #goeuropean crap. Stop it. The region doesn't matter. If anything, the EU and the wider European landscape is becoming like China right now.
Push digital sovereignty without pushing an EU agenda.
It's about global collaboration on free and open source software, allowing for global and cultural standards rather than ones tied to a region/state/company/billionaire.
The EU is literally trying to backdoor encryption right now.
hard to beat them because of them packaging this as a suite which is still way way cheaper for an organization with a whole lot for the same price, hard to argue on that part.
I don't know about how we're in the world, but in the United States, many businesses are part of a franchise business, and the franchise company tells you what you have to use. It is in us contract. And for some reason, they're more invested in the real estate, image, and profit options and really don't care about your security as the franchisee. They barely care about their own. If we could find a way to appeal to those franchise companies so that they would standardize on more secure solutions, it would be wonderful I have not figured out how to do that, but if we could do that, that would turn a ton of small business to more secure solutions.
"...Tuta Mail offers native mobile apps for Android and iPhone, itโs accessible via web browser, and it has free to use native desktop apps available for macOS, Linux, and Windows."

We are producing a new :fsfe: T-shirt in time for @fosdem@fosstodon.org, so of course weโre invoking the ancient tradition of THE POLL.
Dear People of Brazil: We, Germans, are very sorry for these arrogant, rascist and stupid things our (not loved) chancellor told you about #Brasil & your city #Belรฉm - most of us didn't vote for him. He is a constant nuisance and says mean things even about German cities and is absolutely wrong about migration, climate crisis and its solutions. I often get woozy shaking my head just listening to news. So, pls forgive us - our country Germany. We all do hope our head of gov will retire VERY soon.
I really need to move instances; yiff.life softblocking (or whatever the hell it's called, I can only see stuff from there if it's replies or I followed the ) mastodon.social is a real fucking pain in the ass if you actually want to use the service.
If you don't mind the local timeline being all Germans talking about Nazis bad and trains delayed chaos.social is honestly nice enough, I can hook you up with an invite just lmk.
They do block the worst scum and they ended up defederating Threads after seeing their moderation policy, but they don't seem to block instances lightly.
You are expected to at least somewhat CW some stuff I believe and mods can get annoyed if you are careless but I never ran into trouble myself.
One more reason why your social media platform should not have an attached, easily accessible API.
It's far too easy for LLMs (through coding agents) to stalk others for you.
"look through the last 1000 posts of this person and figure out if we can hire them, we have offices in <insert list of cities here>" is absolutely doable right now. That's an euphemism for "I want to know where my ex lives right now" that is palatable to LLMs.
2/2 Not that this is impossible on centralized socials, but you'd have to at least build some kind of LLM harness to do it, and that's almost as much work as just doing the stalking yourself. On Masto, you can go "here's curl, here's a Python interpreter, the username is so and so, go and do your thing."
Doesn't this also say that no alternative clients should be allowed? TO my knowledge, that's the function of the API, or is there a separate API for scraping?
@x0 That's the consequence, yes. You can have alternative clients. You can have (some degree of) privacy and anti-scraping protection. You can't have both, and we're doing users a disservice by pretending otherwise.
I've been avoiding new music lately. It's a painful thing, because I actually don't want to. But I also don't know what else to do. The truth is that everything could be AI, and I'm so skeptical of artists I don't know. Every new release, every song a service suggests, I'm asking. And the paranoia sucks.
Please don't tell me to just move past it and accept it, this is something I feel strongly about and I'm allowed my own convictions. I just hate the concept with a passion and cannot figure out how to simultaneously avoid it and be able to try/have access to new things.
Ironically, this is where TikTok comes in super handy. Most of the songs I hear on there are sung live, as some kind of demonstration or promo, and if the artist on the original sounds the same, I'm relatively convinced.

As AI models become better, this situation is going to get worse, even more people won't notice that AI was used. The same way almost nobody cares that autotune is being used these days, for different reasons of course.
You have to decide if it's worth abandoning new music because of this, or accept the risk, because what you might find outweigh everything else.
The same way living a life to its full extent is the best thing to do, even though we all know that no life is eternal.
I know. I really, actually know this. Which is why I'm wrestling with it so much. It hit me this morning that I was questioning *every single song*. And I hated that. Which is why I shared. I actually don't want to hate it. But when it feels like a threat to me and my creativity, or the wellbeing and creativity of my friends, I can't not take it personally. I don't know how other musicians are dealing with this, actually Andre it would be interesting to hear your perspective on that, but when there is already so much competition in an over-saturated market, and now AI is adding more... I guess I'm just starting to feel vaguely suffocated.
Your creativity is definitely not threatened by AI. If people choose to listen to it and prefer it over music that people put their soul into, that's their problem. If you enjoy what you do and you do it because you enjoy doing it, nothing else matters.
I have been rejected because of AI from a huge company that values quantity over quality these days. Was it disappointing? Sure, when you can't pay your bills because you don't have a job it's more than disappointing. But you are empowering AI more if you give up doing what you like because of it and I can't do that.
@erion @KaraLG84 I know for a certainty that mine isn't. I at no point in time would go to a concert with some holographic AI bullshit musicians playing live. I will still be gigging, still be creating, whether AI lives on beyond me or bursts tomorrow.
Today I'm reviewing soundness. I'm so used to thinking about proofs as establishing truth (compelling belief) it was hard for me to distinguish the |- (derivability) and |= (semantic entailment) worlds.
I think I got it eventually, but it's not a very natural way for me to think, at least yet.
Wow! The iPhone 17 Pro Max can download at 1.8 gigabits per second, and upload at 1.3 gigabits per second. Pretty darn good for WiFi. Cellular performance is craptastic, no more than 400 megabits down by 80 megabits up, but I think I can pretty confidently say that is a result of shitty cell network performance, rather than device performance.
Nice, and impressive. Sad, I could probably get way more out of my phone but our internet is really not that great. Anyway I just read something about this topic this morning: news.kagi.com/tech/2025111916/โฆ

I'm glad to report that the really super annoying frequency bump from Airpods Pro original does not carry over to the Airpods Pro 3. Transparency mode actually sounds reasonably natural, well, its obvious to me that it is being amplified, but there's no real sore ear frequencies slamming my ears anymore. Active Noise Cancelation is super improved and really amazing! Latency is there for sure, but isn't long enough to veer into annoying, get-in-my-way territory. All-in-all, not a bad upgrade, just like the phone. The new watch 11 will be evaluated next. I suspect touch interaction to Voiceover response latency will be improved over the 8.
How is the sound of the AirPods, Pro 3 especially the bass? Compared to my Pixel Buds, I found the AirPods Pro 2, even with bass boost, to sound quite flat somehow. Their design and ANC is really fantastic, no questions, but after I've tried other earbuds I was no longer convinced by the sound. But now that there is actually a proper way to use them on Android, I'm not completely uninterested to say it like that.
@jonathan859 Bass is increased pretty significantly over the Pro Original. I never owned the Pro 2, so can't comment. Also never owned Pixel Buds, so also can't comment.
Would you say it sounds more spatial? I know AirPods have the 3d Sound thing, but what I mean by that is rather, does the music sound more next to your ears and more bright/open/full? I know this description is probably horrible, but I don't know how to describe it in proper audio language, especially in English. The experience I've made with the AirPods Pro 2 was that music like techno sounded a bit, well idk, I can't say it better than flat. Like it has been tried to squeeze it into the little thing left and right to my ears. While I feel like with my Pixel Buds it sounds, more full. I know it's hard to say without having a comparison between the earbuds actually being talked about, so sorry if that's out the scope. Just interested in the improvements with the new model.
@jonathan859 I have disabled all of the spatial and head tracking stuff. It sounds reasonable to me. In fact, a problem I was having with my Airpods Pro 1 was that Spatial and Head tracking shit would actually not really turn off when it said it was, so everything sounded like it was moving with my head, and also had a bit of a room echo effect on everything. I was most certainly not a fan. This is fortunately not the case with these new Airpods Pro 3, and the soundfield doesn't track with my head, and the audio sounds nearly as close to as intended as possible.
@jonathan859 The sound stage on the Pro 3 seems reasonable. I certainly own pairs of cans that cost three times as much that do a way better job, but for a pair of buds that you can take with you everywhere, and not having to have three pound cans balanced on your head is amazing. I cannot comment on any comparisons to Pixel Buds or Pro 2.
After two weeks of waiting for packages and help, we finally replaced our old an broken work desks with some new models yesterday. Finally we are also able to work while standing up. Also, having an actual desk plate and not this swedish crap of two thinny wooden planks with alot of nothing in between feels really good.
I currently have an older Synology DS1815+, will probably replace with a UNAS-pro 8 when that needs to happen. I have a friend who works for an architectural firm, who also manages a multi-hundred site Ubiquiti controller and a bunch of junk on the side, and he seems to love them.
1. If you're choking on an ice cube, simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto! The blockage will instantly remove itself.
2. Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold the vegetables.
3. Avoid arguments with females about lifting the toilet seat by using the sink.
4. For high blood pressure sufferers, simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure on your veins. Remember to use a timer.

Mal wieder hat ein alter Mann eine "Beziehung" mit einer jungen weiblichen Person gefรผhrt, die danach traumatisiert ist und er hat daraus ein Jahrzehnt spรคter keinerlei Konsequenzen erlebt, im Gegensatz zu ihr. Sie 15, er 63, aber natรผrlich keiner Schuld bewusst
Sie 15, er 63: Der Mรผnchner Liedermacher Konstantin Wecker soll eine Beziehung zu einer Minderjรคhrigen eingegangen sein. Unter den Folgen leidet die mittlerweile 30-Jรคhrige bis heute, der Kรผnstler bittet um Verzeihung.
Johanna (nicht der echte Name der Betroffenen) hat sich dazu entschieden, ihr Schweigen medial zu brechen und beschreibt ne Dynamik, bei der ich mir echt denke "wie? Schon wieder so was?"
"Als schon alles vorbei war, nannte sie selbst es ihm gegenรผber eine โunkonventionelle Liebe, die keiner verstehen konnte und kannโ. Die Liebe zwischen einer Schรผlerin und einem fast 50 Jahre รคlteren Mann."
Mal wieder sieht sich die 40 Jahre รคltere und deutlich privilegierte Person nicht in der Verantwortung. Denn man war ja hรคufig alkoholisiert
"Weckers Rechtsanwalt teilt mit, es sei eine Phase gewesen, in der sein Mandant โsehr viel und รผber lรคngere Phasen Alkohol konsumiertโ habe. Auch wenn all dies keine Entschuldigung sei, โmรถchte er zum Ausdruck bringen, dass er damals nicht Herr seiner Sinne gewesen istโ."
Angezeigt hat sie Konstantin Wecker am Ende nicht; es sei eine rechtliche Grauzone, habe ihr Anwalt gesagt, der Ausgang unklar. Weckers Anwalt schreibt, er mรถchte โfรผr Herrn Wecker mitteilen, dass er davon ausgeht, damals keinerlei strafbare Handlungen im Umgang mit der betroffenen Frau begangen zu habenโ."
In Beziehungen mit (groรen) Machtgefรคlle kann Verhalten missbrรคuchlich sein, ohne dass es strafrechtlich relevant verurteilt oder angezeigt werden wรผrde. Das macht es fรผr Betroffene nicht weniger traumatisierend
Konstantin Wecker, "Beziehung" zu Jugendlicher, explizite Beschreibung
Sensitive content
"Manchmal habe er sie am Telefon aufgefordert, mit ihm zu masturbieren. Sie habe es nicht gewollt, sagt Johanna heute, aber aus Sorge, er kรถnnte das Interesse verlieren, will sie so getan haben, als hรคtte sie mitgemacht."
Auch emotional ausgeรผbter Druck kann zu sexuellen Grenzรผberschreitungen fรผhren und ist dann nur eine weitere Form sexualisierter Gewalt - auch wenn der 63-jรคhrige als verantwortliche Person der Meinung ist, das nicht gecheckt zu haben
Konstantin Wecker, "Beziehung" zu Jugendlicher, explizite Beschreibung
Sensitive content
Im Endeffekt bricht Johanna ihr Schweigen und das ist verdammt stark: โIch will als erwachsene Person fรผr die 15-jรคhrige Johanna einstehen, weil es damals niemand getan hatโ Das erfordert fรผr Betroffene so viel Mut und Kraft. So viele Betroffene leiden leise. Dabei gilt auch hier: Die Scham muss die Seiten wechseln
@NVAccess @jcsteh I appreciate your insights here. I am planning to open an issue on GitHub, but I first want to make sure it actually needs a separate issue. Currently, when NVDA encounters bold or italic text in HTML, it displays that word or phrase on its own line in the virtual buffer. Just like with links, NVDA then places the following non-styled text directly after it on the same line. This means that when navigating with Up and Down arrows, you may encounter several new lines in the middle of a paragraph, each starting with one or more bold or italic words, followed by normal text. Besides making navigation more difficult, this behavior is not very useful. For example, in online dictionaries where one or more words in an example sentence are bold or italic, the virtual buffer does not show how many words at the start of the line actually have that formatting. To see this issue, which is very easy to reproduce, go to the Merriam-Webster dictionary website and check the definition of โworkaholic.โ Here is the direct link: merriam-webster.com/dictionaryโฆ In the Examples section, the first example displays โMy brother is a realโ on one line, and on the next line it shows โworkaholic who almost never takes time off.โ The problem is even worse in the Recent Examples section. There, in addition to an italicized word inside the example, the name of the publication is also bold or italic, and NVDA breaks the paragraph even further and places each styled element on its own line. At the very least, there should be a setting that toggles this behavior, so users can choose between the current mode and an alternative mode where bold, italic, and underline formatting does not break the virtual buffer into separate lines. Also, when pressing Insert+F on text that is bold or italic, NVDA reports formatting details only at the end. For example: โOpen Sans 14.5 pt very dark pale aqua-blue on white bold italic align left.โ It would be better if NVDA announced bold, italic, or underline at the beginning instead of the end, similar to how JAWS does it. For example: โbold italic align left Open Sans 14.5 pt very dark pale aqua-blue on white.โ I want to open an issue requesting NVDA to stop separating bold and italic text from surrounding words, or at least provide a toggle for it, and to improve how formatting information is announced in general. There should be more efficient ways to convey this information without altering the structure of the virtual buffer.
I assume this separation only happens with screen layout off? Can you reproduce the format splitting with screen layout on? That makes a very big difference here. If it's only with screen layout off, my guess is just that the determination of what should cause a split is a bit broad. It's not just links, but on the flip side, it's not all inline elements either. But nor do we want to have some massive list (and corresponding debate) about which specific thousand elements should split and which shouldn't, so there needs to be a simple rule (e.g. only interactive elements should split). That said, all of this is supposition, since I personally have no interest in screen layout off and thus I don't work on that area of the code.
You are right. This does not happen when Screen Layout is set to On. I normally keep it Off because I do not like links being placed inside non-link text. But it appears that with Screen Layout set to Off, NVDA applies the same behavior whenever it encounters emphasized text such as bold, italic, or underline. So it is not unpredictable in terms of element types or properties. I really wish there were a setting to disable this behavior, because it makes manual navigation painfully difficult on many pages.
You may get some pushback though. By definition, turning screen layout off means you're asking NVDA not to respect visual layout and to instead break lines. Where lines are broken, then, is debatable. You personally just want this for links and I tend to agree that formatting and links are very different, but it could equally be argued that the same rule should be applied to other inline elements because they are still different from the surrounding text. VoiceOver breaks on every. single. element. for example. This is why I personally dislike non-screen layout in general, even for links, but I respect that there are different preferences and styles of navigation.
Thanks for your insights. All valid points. I'll open an issue for it to see how it goes. Perhaps I'm used to the JAWS approach which only separates links and doesn't treat emphasized text that way. @NVAccess
And oh boy all terms seem so foreign to me as a long time #Linux user. The same disk is called ada0 with a partition like ada0p2 in #FreeBSD, will be called something like sd0 with sd0h in #OpenBSD, ld0 and dk2 in #NetBSD . Then to experiment, all the #dkctl, #disklabel and #fdisk commands are like blue and red wires on a dynamite you have to get rid of ๐ฑ. Linux distros nowadays seem to be going to the #gdisk way which feels very much like #gpart in FreeBSD. #UseBSD #RUNBSD #BSD #FOSS #UNIX #Linux
If I might weigh in here with some personal experience as an indie artist. Iโll refer to my streaming stats for March 2025 which totalled a bit over four dollars in streaming earnings.
If you are paying a Soundcloud subscription, a portion of that will go directly towards the specific artists youโre streaming.
I havenโt mentioned Bandcamp as I think of it as a music shop rather than a subscription streaming service, but straight up purchasing music there is a really great way to support your chosen artists.
