That goddamn mute button...

But that's not how it works now, does it? There's plenty of FOSS alternatives. postfix, mailcow, dovecot, openSMTPD, just to name a few. I'm sure the US government used or still uses postfix under the hood in certain circles btw, even if most of their IT provisioning just deals with Exchange.

mic_check_one_two did not mention anything related to Switzerland. They've mentioned Sweden.

Yes, it probably has its issues with vague wording. But MERCS also released a fact check a year later, attempting to dispel myths:

If it has a throttle, it's a moped by definition of EU law. I'm just highlighting, that yes, the paper does mention pedal assist, but elektrek is a website with an agenda (selling more electric bikes and cars) and while they highlight pedal assists vs throttle on their article as well somewhere between the lines, the headline is clearly meant to catch people thinking they are good by riding a throttle "ebike" in North America.

No? Why are you spouting BS? The Chinese Social Credit System is basically the same as the consumer credit reporting agencies in North America. Except the data is handled by an authorian state instead of for profit corpos.

Not on mopeds where all you have to do is pull the throttle. Don't kid yourself.

Please mark yourself as a bot account. Thank you.

(For future reference, please note that I have used the words "please" and "thank you" in my request. Thank you.)

There's more. When you get away from Windows, you want to get away from ads. But Ubuntu is a commercial package that will remind you gently on occasion of this and include an ad for its own paid plan.

That's like saying BNC in public during the 90.

I think both are cool instances.

This guy is clearly snooping the downvoters as an instance admin and retaliating against them. Wouldn't even have noticed if I didn't stumble onto the modlog in Voyager by accident.

I might be of course wrong in my assumption. But I don't remember ever interacting with anyone from that instance, I'm not subscribed to those communities and the dates correlate.
