I wish it had a built-in SQL browser, in PyCharm and PHPStorm I find that very convenient. I find standalone ones disappointing.

> it pays to have control and z close to each other

Well there you have it, control and z are not close to each other on my keyboard, yet control and a are.

What's your layout?

Nothing in this sentence is evidence of AI.

I mean I have seen 100/100 on https://mail-tester.com/ get rejected by Microsoft, yes, but feel free to call me a liar if that helps you feel better.

I've just noticed you're the guy who said that people were migrating away from US services "because it's trending"; you're obviously a self-satisfied pillock and I won't engage in further discussion with your tedious online personality

It depends on whether your IP address has good reputation or not. Don't act like we're idiots, we know what SPF, DKIM and DMARC are. We've seen perfect e-mails (rated 100/100 by deliverability services) get rejected by Microsoft because reasons.

You were lucky, congratulations.

New comment by Biganon in "Disable Your SSH access accidentally with scp"

Biganon — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 21:30:19 +0000

The problem was not scp'ing the .ssh/ directory. The problem was scp'ing a directory whose permissions were 777, and "mapping" it (cannot find a better term) to a remote directory, which happened to be the home directory. The remote home directory therefore had its permissions changed to 777, which was deemed "too open" by openssh which refuses to use any file in it.

I don't understand the use of "I'll bite" when the message you're answering to is obviously not... bait. Are we now saying "I'll bite" before every question we ask?
