BoofStroke@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Roku has patented a way to show ads over anything you plug into your TVEnglish6·1 year agoI replaced all of mine with Nvidia shield and Walmart onn streaming pucks. It’s a better experience in every way (once projectivy is installed) and costs less too.
BoofStroke@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Google is removing third-party apps and clock faces from all Fitbit watches in the EUEnglish3·1 year agoI finally replaced my pebble with a Garmin. Pleasantly surprised. I still miss voice response and proper tasker integration, but otherwise it’s a solid smart watch.
Activities I only use for hiking. I don’t wear a watch cycling or kayaking. Looking forward to trying the snowboarding activity though.

BoofStroke@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Tim Berners-Lee: Marking the Web’s 35th Birthday: An Open LetterEnglish28·1 year agoTim’s name is the only one on the original html rfc. He is also a contributor on the httpd rfcs.
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1866
So as far as content creation is concerned, yes he invented it. Html markup made it very easy for non-technical people to easily create their own web pages. That we no longer do that as individuals is the main point he is making. The original intent of the tool has been taken over by marketing and capitalism.
Before his work we communicated and shared via ftp, telnet, usenet, gopher, smtp, and irc.
Needing a credit card just to use Roku has always been nonsense. I bought a gift card, spent all but $1 of it, and registered with that.
But I’ve since moved to Nvidia shield on the theater and onn on bedroom, office. Much better experience all around.

BoofStroke@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Best email provider against spam?English4·1 year agoYou can look for a service that provides a mail security gateway, or host your own. My personal solution is mimedefang milter on sendmail which will blow away any canned solution you will find. But you have to know what you are doing with it.
There is barracuda, but they are $$. Another option is proxmox mail gateway. Not as fast as mimedefang, but it has a nice gui.

That’s what s/mime does. If it were as easy to get personal certs as it is to get server certs through letsencrypt, everyone could easily sign and encrypt mail.
I can certainly do it anyway, but you’d have to trust my self signed cert.
That said, it’s pretty rare to find relays these days that are not using tls for transport, so there’s that.
