Lavabit was a secure email provider.
I had used it for years, but it shut itself down in the early parts of the Edward Snowden PRISM-leak affair
- mh is, I believe, the MH Message Handling System
The downside of rss2email is that many ISPs have a limit to the number of emails you can send. Lavabit.com has a flat 256 email limit per day.
GMail seems to be a little more lenient. While it too is restricted, it seems that I could indeed send unlimited emails to myself.
Followup YouTube+RSS-related stuff is in Atheist YouTube channels, now gone
Warning: This post contains everyday language. It's one thing to be polite, but I need to stress the importance of the destruction of usability-apathy. There's no room to be nice here.
I was intending to do a decent post every day, but I got really burned out. Why? I've been struggling with several different programs over the last couple of weeks. I've been sick and tired of the clumsiness that my apathy has allowed.
I think everyone has a sort of apathy towards usability issues. We take them as excusable or as some sort of status quo "that's just the way it is". I'm sick and fucking tired of that. Seriously.
I had very old .eml email archives laying about and wanted to convert them into an open standard format so they could live alongside my current email.
Twitter has these follower-spammers. Idiots who have a twitter account that advertises some junk or other. They follow people to try to get them to follow them. Pathetic.
I logged in to see if there was any kind of spam prevention, only to be given a notice that my email address was incorrect.
Well of course it is, I missed a character. But I already corrected it after I signed up! So I went to correct it again. And again. And again. The change doesn't stick. Twitter is broken.
