Whoah, isn’t FUTO the non-profit that Louis Rossmann works for? This is great news!!

Actually the ad matches the article. To me the ad is “fringe” and it has infested the “mainstream” (CNN).

If this is their attitude to a clear self-inflicted fuckup, then that’s plenty reason for me to avoid them and their services. It’s not like their services were distinct in any way… just a dime in a dozen cloud provider.

Hear hear!

Google reminds me more and more of Microsoft of the 90s. That’s exactly the kind of compatibility breaking asinine move MS would do 30 years ago. Sigh…

Better late than never and I responded! Check your DM. :)

I have the whole series as DRM-free MP3. Let me know if you want it.

You should see/try socialist/communist toilet paper. Not only is it thin like this, it will also no-so-gently exfoliate your anus.

Interactive (i.e. end-users) Clients should be using OAuth instead of app passwords. This will allow your users to use their own Office365 credentials for SMTP.

For servers and non-interactive clients (e.g. copiers/printers/toasters/coffee makers) I would suggest something along the lines here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/mail-flow-best-practices/how-to-set-up-a-multifunction-device-or-application-to-send-email-using-microsoft-365-or-office-365#compare-the-options

Ditto here. Either I’m not doing it properly, or this doesn’t affect my build/OS.

Ok, just updated to 1.11.0 (latest app store release at the time of writing) and it behaves exactly the same. The icon changed after updating, however, subsequent attempts to change it are ineffective as before, even if the app is swiped up from the task selector to “kill” it. It seems like swiping up doesn’t really kill the app, however, installing/reinstalling/updating from the app store does.

To test this, I’ll try offloading the app (delete app but not app data) and reinstalling to see if my hypothesis about updating/reinstalling is correct.

Interesting; it’s consistently not working for me. I managed to change the app icon once, but subsequent attempts keep failing. The icon changes within the app’s settings screen, however, it does not change from the previous selection when I go into the app switcher or the launcher. Killing/restarting the app from the app switcher doesn’t help either.

EDIT: the symptoms above are happening on app store version 1.10.1. I’m about to update to 1.11.0 to see if it helps.

Love this new feature!!! And yeah, I would love to see the icon selection grow.

I was actually confused about your response to grahamsz@kbin.social… it seems like they have at least a basic understanding of how registrars vs. DNS hosts work.

WHOIS privacy? Porkbun does that for free for all TLDs that support it.

I don’t think I fully understand how what they offer isn’t “ownership by proxy”. I suppose they promise not to release your info if police ask for it? On the other hand, they technically own the domains you register through them, so if they get repossessed (e.g. through legal bankruptcy proceedings), whoever their new owner is, will presumably also own your domains…

I’m probably not seeing something here, but this all sounds sketchy to me.

Cloudflare sells domains at cost. So yes, cheaper than any other registrar (including NameCheap and Porkbun), except maybe those who sell domains at a loss as a promo to rope you in and then kill you on the renewals.

Integration into their stack is a nice side effect, but really inconsequential. You can have your domains registered with any registrar and have your DNS hosted by any DNS hosting provider. Heck, you can run your own DNS servers if you want to.

Technically they won’t. They won’t host OpenNIC TLDs, for example. However, you can have your domain registered with any registrar, and as long as you specify Cloudflare’s assigned DNS servers for your domain (DNSSEC records can be set too), you should be OK.

Huh? You mean you can’t separate the domain registrar from your DNS service provider?

I have my .ca domains on Porkbun, but DNS is hosted through Cloudflare. Porkbun supports DNSSEC records as well, so that’s not really an issue, just a few extra steps.

The “do you know where your files are?” reminds me of their past security leaks and breaches. 🤔

Holly shit, this is pretty damn awesome!
