Does it really matter that much that a sewage treatment plant couldn't exist without automated sensors? Maybe it shouldn't exist then at all.

I don't understand. If a company closes, how is a union supposed to help?

This is dumb. You could argue this for any non-essential purpose. Why even say it?

Wouldn't low fertility rates make land less valuable? I don't get how my lifestyle indebts the future generations.

Honestly, I don't want that lifestyle. I live in the burbs with a big house and yard. We travel plenty and go to places that are dense/walkable but I love coming back home to my carbrained neighborhood with an HOA.

Everything's connected to the internet, what the OP was talking about was attack vectors and since Transmit is a local app it really isn't one unless your whole machine is compromised, which in that case you're screwed.

I assume this is in the wake of the cease & desist sent to Invidious (the engine behind Freetube) by the YouTube peeps: https://torrentfreak.com/youtube-orders-invidious-privacy-so...

They've been shipping features somewhat regularly. One I really like (but was unfortunately gated behind a $10 price bump) was being able to ask AI to find an email "where's that email about blah" or to have it summarize a long email chain "hey what am I supposed to be doing here"

I would recommend setting up a 301 redirect for www (also recommend having this support both http and https)
