  US played badly. That first goal was just embarrassing. The third one was even worse. Belgium absolutely dominated.

  In (non technical) grad school I swear using LyX got me an extra 5 points per paper over Word. Also it was life-changing magic integrating Zotero for citations.

  I thought the BBC tinker tailor and Smiley’s People was really good, understated performances. But I’d read the books a few times so caught a lot of the cues.

  So actually it’s not as bad as that. I feel like I should write a guide.

  Absolutely the hardest part was getting a static IP. More on that in a second.

  Exim and dovecot are very, very mature pieces of software. Exim is difficult to configure, but once you get there, it doesn’t ever change. Now that the AI tools have gotten good, you can learn and configure it quite quickly.

  For spam- life is so much better with pfsense running pfblocker. Also,bi set up a fail2ban feed to pfblocker to block IPs spamming,brute forcing, or otherwise misbehaving. Much of this already existed in fail2ban and I just have it dump its blocklist to text via a cron job that pfblocker loads.

  The good IP is the hard part. For a while I just paid for one, it was about $20 more here for business class Internet that came with an IP. Eventually I cut costs.

  You can do this basically two ways. Just get a VPS and install the mail server there, or get a VPS and install opnsense or pfsense there, with a VPN tunnel back home to your mail server. Haproxy handles it and wireguard is really reliable. I did hit a snag here because Google are buttheads and blocked the IP I had - literally no one else does. I actually don’t have too many people who use gmail that I contact so it has only been a tiny problem. But the first IP I had worked perfectly for years.

  You need to set up SPF, dkim,certificates etc. But these are just text strings and let’sencrypt…once all set up it just stays that way. Apply updates when released and enjoy your own email server, which is awesome.

  All I remember about multiplayer Halo is Blood Gulch and spawn camping with the warthog. If someone else realized what you were doing and helped, you could just circle the other spawn platform and vulcanize the spawners. Was fun

  I still run umatrix in Firefox snd the level of calling out that even simple pages do is shocking. And likely all those called sites even for fonts are collecting something about you.

  I still have my original 5 disc set of riven.I need to image those and mount them in 5 virtual CDroms so I’m not changing disks constantly.

  That game was hard as hell, I remember the last puzzle defeating me. Some of the clues were vague too. But man it was something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3.9% APR⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In the 90s anything over 3 years was frowned upon. 4 years maybe if you were desperate. Interest rates were middling, and var prices relatively about the same I think. Hard to tell but a cheap car was 7500 - 10k in the early early 90s.
