Gotta respect the empirical approach🙏

I might not know how to turn gay

Not with that attitude you don’t.

Lmao I thought the exact same during a Terminator 2 rewatch recently where they’re shooting inside a closed elevator with a shotgun and pistol at the T-1000 on top. Erryone getting hearing aids.

To be fair, a lot of stuff like this is intentionally wrong for people potentially like in the OP but not being ironic. Like a chip of fulminated mercury blowing up a building but somehow not touching off the rest of the bag; though the rest of the bag may have just been actual meth.

Tech support is somewhat different, for MSPs at least. In so far as billing and resolving the customers problem is usually aligned. Customer/tech support for places like Amazon or adobe is different. Adobe for example will typically only help out (resolving a billing dispute for example) only if you make it apparent you’ll leave/report them to a consumer bureau and they’re instructed in this fashion.

The design choices are also sometimes shit on purpose. I get it though and was bitching about similar on a different post recently regarding Nextdoor making unsubscribing from notifications intentionally infuriating to do. Only offering to unsubscribe from all when you begin the account deactivation process.

Realistically, as long as you’re polite or even just professional you’d get my respect. When I worked for an MSP some of the elitism of my coworkers was annoying. One older dude who I was providing support for asked how I “know all this stuff” about computers. Not only because it was my job but as I said him I’ve been messing around with computers since I was a kid. And a lot of that was breaking shit and having to fix it so my parents didn’t get mad.

Glad I don’t do support directly anymore and if someone is rude or abusive; we can just terminate communication with them.

Nah it’s just your claim of them of addressing none of the OPs concerns and being a blind shill is objectively wrong and you’e in your feelings about that being pointed out to you.

Fuck that is depressing. I had hoped I’d be able to pay for a service and not worry about this shit to avoid the hassle of self hosting. Very informative thank you.

Op.

can create a priority inbox without all the pesky notification clutter

User.

(e.g. you can create aliases for your shipping stuff called [website].shipping@[myalias].com and then make a rule including all the adresses .shipping to a specific folder).

I.e avoiding shipping notification clutter by directing to folders. Don’t really disagree with the placing too much trust in one company for whatever it’s worth.

Thanks for the links, the recovery email aspect was covered in the initial comment old mate was replying to. I was more interested in if the hand your ass over remark had anything to do with the “they cant read your emails”/encryption part. The second link is very interesting though:

After providing the activist’s metadata to Swiss authorities, ProtonMail removed the section that had promised no IP logs, replacing it with one saying, “ProtonMail is an email that respects privacy and puts people (not advertisers) first.”

Also, sealioning is “just asking questions” (JAQ’ing off). Consistently interrogating a position or POV for example, with requests for evidence. Not asking someone to provide some sort of evidence for a single claim they made in reply to another user and refusal to find said evidence for them.

Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning ) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter

Emphasis mine. From wiki. I appreciate the attempt to deescalate though and accept it’s probably time to pack it in with that particular user.

How about you google burden of proof? Like the other user said burden of proof is on the party making the claim. It’s not on other people to prove the claim wrong by doing research for you.

Sure I saw yours and accept that, but “hand your ass over” doesn’t equate to “complies minimally with legal request they have to in order to remain functioning as a business” in my book.

Burden of proof is on you.

Are you basing this on anything? I agree with another poster that proton being the go to alternative is somewhat suspect in my paranoid brain but some of these remark here seem pretty outlandish.

They addressed all the OPs requirement excluding remarking on the spam filter. What are you even talking about.

One of these can just be solved with a mailbox rule within the email client itself for what it’s worth. Make a rule that’s based on keywords in the subject line and have them moved into a folder that you clear out every couple of months. Downside is the email client need to be running/opened for it to process them.

Respectfully; if we aren’t close and it doesn’t come up organically in game, I’m super not interested in hearing political opinions in games. While they may have some degree of politics baked in, that doesn’t mean Im interested in hearing people interpretation of them beyond gameplay. I play games to relax and socialise in a friendly, respectful setting.

That includes if I agree. I see this “if they don’t, they agree with the status quo/don’t want to deal/etc” used frequently but people who borderline grandstand in front of people who they know likely share their view are insufferable. At least that been my experience the one time someone has brought up politics at a table. Then again I avoid public/rand tables for a reason these days. Not saying all political discussion goes thay way at a table but the image just paints it in a very binary manner.

Do things in recycle bin not get synced to the cloud/backed up?(edit: nope seems everything from breaking migration tool, ballooning profiles and overzealous compliance can be mitigated elsewhere). Hence doing so in the roll out? No idea otherwise or why they wouldn’t know. Sometimes we just get told to do things a certain way. Not IT anymore but currently work with engineers who try shortcutting triage queues (probably in an attempt to save everyone time, not maliciously) and we have to undo their assignment and triage it as laid out. Specifically we were told “people will try to tell you who to send internal requests to, ignore them”. Largely for accountability so tickets/requests don’t get dropped or breach SLA and also because it can break workflows. Locking out recycle bins without being able to provide a good reason is pretty wild though lmao.
