Thunderbird will provider their PRO services using stalw.art as email backend. I was considering using it too to replace really old mail system in our company. It looked like modern stack using jmap, but it seems thunderbird actually does not support jmap? Or is it only in their PRO extension? Does it mean I cannot use this unless it is with their services? I'm confused.

Of course there is still IMAP, but I hoped for better.

I won't dispute you. Maybe it evolved into more usable state, but the beginings had many problems and rough edges.

I really wish them success, but I just can't see it anymore. I had the first version and it seems it didn't move much forward from that time. And there were also many screwups, as poisonborz reminded a bit earlier.

Their UI looked novel, but wasn't that great in practice. It wasn't stable (hopefully that changed) and the lack of real apps was killing it before and now even more, as more banks/govs require some "trusted" apps

For image registry...probably not that much. But it is quite common for other software, often those that target containers/k8s/... I already have few of those and that would be quite handy to have some good local s3.

But isn't it still available separately?

Thanks, that looks good. Do you have some real experience with this in production?

Yes, but I'd rather some self hosted software solution

This looks nice. What would be good on-prem S3 companion for this? I know if minio but I think there was some recent drama about it (I don't know specifics, just a feeling)

New comment by muhehe in "Microsoft is open sourcing Windows 11's UI framework"

muhehe — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 09:48:22 +0000

I already lost count how many UI frameworks are in windows. It looks like complete chaos and mess.

I really wonder what they expect from open-sourcing it. Just to pretend how open they are? Or is there any real benefit to developers who target windows?

Instead of hiding which game it is, the company should be properly shamed.

Thanks, I'm liking kobo more and more every time I read about it :).

Out of curiosity, why block updates? Does it conflict with your modification

There are ads in kobo? Is it normal or some sort of cheaper offering like kindles?

Hey, this look neat. I'm not familiar with kobos, are they good (compared to kindles)? Does this require some sort of jailbreaking or are they quite open by default?

Seems reasonable.

> Whenever I wanted to buy stock images, I was shocked how expensive they were.

It's funny, because authors of those images (at least on Shutterstock) get basically nothing (like ten cents for photo, iirc).

Thank you! This is great software. I don't use it much (and recently almost not at all), but I still love. It's fast, it's easy to use. I just checked your website and it looks there are tons of features I didn't know about :). Thanks again.

muhehe — Thu, 17 Oct 2024 06:56:03 +0000

I liked similar thing, snaplet, unfortunately they're dead now. One thing I liked was the option to run proxy to which you could connect with any tool you like (psql, dbeaver, ...) and see preview of your transformations. Also they had some good (stable) generators for names, emails, etc...(I haven't yet checked this fully in greenmask).

Anyway, I will definitely try this. It looks real good!

No, no, no. Do NOT touch my content. I don't care how bad you think it is. Do not modify it. Ever. Printers are such a crap already. Now to actually have to very carefully check if the glorious super intelligent machine changed some numbers (hello xeror) is not something I want.

muhehe — Tue, 24 Sep 2024 06:29:03 +0000

Is java still popular? Though I'm not a big fan of it I wouldn't mind using, but I'm after somewhat recent changes in licensing I'm not even sure I can. I don't fully understand the changes and I'm afraid of oracle coming after me :).

Can anyone explain current caveats and/or limitations with current licensing?
