oh man. This looks awesome. thanks!

 

My email is hosted at mxroute. I'm happy with their pricing and service and don't want to selfhost my email. However, their spam management isn't great.

I just realised that it might be possible to run spamassassin myself, which will set spam headers on the emails which my email client (thunderbird) can then use to decide what to do.

There seems to be a bunch of poorly maintained / abandoned ways in which to do this. I thought I'd ask here just in case any one else is doing this and can help me skip to the end.

I was hoping for a docker container (or compose stack) that provides an IMAP proxy and runs spamassassin.

Any ideas and insights welcome. My email juggling could use some improvement.

I think most places keep a brush in the toilet in a fancy caddy. That's because the expectation is that everyone scrubs any skid marks before leaving.

I suspect that the plunger is to do with standard sewage pipe guage rather than just "shoddy" workmanship or whatever. That's why bidet spray is more or less mandatory in South East Asia, the sewage pipes just aren't wide enough to handle toilet paper.

Water bottles for bikes suffer from this.

You gotta get them really dried out really regularly.

Like if you only have one that you use every day it's just going to get gross no matter what.

It needs to be bone dry for a few days to kill everything.

If you have 2 and switch once a week, the one that's out of rotation will dry out and any funk will just die off.

I don't think I've ever seen a plunger of any kind kept in someone's toilet.

Is this an American thing?

Weird take on counter tops.

Things designed for many people to use need to be the best height for most people. I feel confident that most countertops are the best height for most people.

I acknowledge that they are too low for a tall person, and that they're too high for a short person.

You're pretty much just saying you want things to be designed for you and that everyone else should adapt to you, rather than you having to make concessions for others like everybody does.

I agree with you, but I'm not sure how great it would actually be.

I don't know much about it and I suspect others will be along to correct me in a moment, but wasn't this a feature of soviet era communism?

As in, capitalists all compete in a free market to produce the best chair for the lowest price. Communism is more efficient because we just direct a factory to make 2 types of chair, standard and deluxe.

  1. Spray bum
  2. Pat dry with TP

The tricky part with phase 1 is managing water pressure. Too little is ineffective. Too much blasts shit everywhere.

Do a test squirt into the bowl so you know what you've got to work with. Start with low pressure to get most of it, adjust angle of necessary, then hit it with everything.

No, not "more than", or "as often as", but more often than you seem to think.

In Australia it's uncommon for someone to stay home exclusively with the kids for more than a year or so. Usually that's the mother because she's recovering from giving birth, breastfeeding et cetera.

Thereafter one parent works full time while the other works part time. In this phase it's usually about income. Whoever can earn more works full time. That's usually dad that's working full time, but certainly not always.

Dad doesn't need to be castrated and wear a frock or whatever to stay at home. In cases where mum and dad earn similar money dad might take back year off to stay home with the kids while mum works or something.

I don't expect you to believe me, but since you seem to be marvelling at my extensive real world experience, I'm a tax consultant.

Do you mean to tell me that wealthy people own most things? I'm shocked!

I didn't say mum and dad own Walmart. My point us simply that the "buy local" catch cry of small business owners isn't as simple as you're making out.

Again, I didn't say small business owners aren't allowed to go overseas. Merely that there's no guarantee that buying local means your money stays local.

Yeah it's just bonkers.

A criminal tried to seize power in a violent coup.

Not only was nothing done but voters elected him to be fucking president because they were confused about Palestinians and concerned about the price of eggs.

It's not real, but it's concerning that it sounds like something he might say.
