Just put Telegram in the same pool with Discord, Skype, Teams and all that. They’re more at home there and no longer the status of for the people.

I prioritize ease of use, reliability, basic features not behind a pay wall, solid support and ease of use through Thunderbird so I don’t have to visit the awful web version of said mail program. While I had mentioned that I was on Tutamail, I did a search of them and found a Reddit post about them weighing pros and cons. The cons I read of them go against a little of the things I’m after.

So reluctantly, I had to go back to GMail. I spent over 20 minutes migrating, resetting, re-routing many addresses to my newer GMail. I know that privacy is neither here or there on surface web stuff so I don’t care about privacy regarding that. I’ll start caring about privacy when I sign up for more personalized things and that’s where Tutamail is going to come into play.

Well, I’m embracing a new e-mail service. And maybe a new VPN.

Proton has been giving me some issues sometimes when I couldn’t access my inbox, I can’t have that when I’m in great need to see if anything has happened. Also, I’ve joined Tutamail just now and I can make a lot of folders. Screw you, Proton for endorsing trash and limiting how many folders I can make. Which sounds like a silly complaint and it kind of is, but who the hell limits basic features like that?

So I’ll be giving Tutamail a year long trial, just as I did with Proton 4 years ago before making it my primary service of choice. Push comes to shove, I’ll just use GMail again for at least it’s reliability and as an ironic middle-finger to Proton for this kind of move.

This is why I always disable Windows Defender and everything Windows does to protect my machine. Because it will throw a fit the moment I even downloaded a pirated game and knows something is up with it. It won’t let me run EXEs and purge the file.

The same thing that is holding us back from traveling abroad to reach all of those newfound exoplanets we keep discovering.

It’ll be several long lifetimes before we can have the technology to do that.

You’ve been watching Armageddon, have you?

No.

People are all okay with it until the disabled child grows up and they have to spend two or three times the amount to tend to that child. And have to pay more. And have to go through so many obstacles just to support and keep that child going.

Every disabled child I’ve ever seen in my life, whether it’s from down syndrome types to ones stuck in a chair for the rest of their life with abnormalities. I can’t help but feel absolute pity and wonder exactly what they’d be thinking if their brains were normal enough to have them speak. I don’t think they’d be wishing to continue living. They’d either want to die or have a different life where they’re normal like everyone else.

And I think it’s absolutely cruel for parents to keep them living like that.

This is a dumb headline and a dumb article. Valve is making ripples in handhelds, yes, but to say the same on PC is moot. Microsoft still has an iron grip on a large amount of PCs. There’s so few that will bother with SteamOS as OS of choice since it is a one-trick pony compared to Windows, even though it is shit right now. They still need Windows to run nearly 99% of games.

And they’re the kind of bully where the rest of the world just disappointingly sighs and has to deal with because they know Russia is absolutely no better and China is meh.

Yeah.

For example, does Microsoft deserve my money for how much of a dumping they’ve taken onto Windows since Windows 8? No, they don’t.

Because if I did give Microsoft my money, I’m REWARDING them for their half-assery.
