But it has to be like something and there will be consequences of any system. TBH I’m fascinated by the possibilities that aren’t too. But there are many more “broken” than fixed and that could matter who you are. Not saying it’s great is it is, but I feel like we are at an end.

The answer is always matrix (it has bridges) and a couple people say XMPP.

I don’t think it’s ever been considered safe to be publicly accessible.

Yeah I possibly didn’t write it right.

By making smaller tools you’re allowing for a shell scripting distinction to exist where without it you would have a lot more specialized tools that do “more” but don’t integrate well. Kind of like the webbrowser.

Choice of language is part of the design, but it’s probably more “runtime” than the language itself as it could just be a spec with multiple implementations.

Probably will happen when the benefits of maintaining a separate kernel fall away. Same way Wine has made win32 a potential future API that all games target, but no platform supports natively. (Not yet though it’s a prediction.)

It means you contain the generated code.

One supports the new thing (AI) and the other doesn’t.

ok. Let me know if you have any questions

Merging probably has more value as people would understand the edge cases, with generated regexp it would be harder for someone to confidently understand the edges without having a deeper understanding of the algorithm and data set.

I’m not too concerned, for example, if they have to check their spam folders

Then you can self host. I use stalwart but in your case I would probably use mox

Does it do exclusions? Can it merge regexp?

Back when I started out I wanted something similar I used webmin (I think it was) which is a perl webserver interface for linux configuration. There are a couple issues with gui/tui based solutions:

1. Config files can be very expressive, and it’s hard to make a data structure and a ui which matches it, which causes it to clobber comments and extra config options you turn on (the comments help a lot with config files)
2. They can be very out of date, and break your config unless you’re aware of the differences in version
3. Webmin was the source of many security vulnerabilities
4. They actively prevent learning - config files are a bandaid, although pam, like selinux, fstab, crypttab are painful ones to make a mistake in but the good news is often fixing them is booting into a live cd and changing it, so make backups.

Along with webmin tuis were popular for config too in a similar way. IDK if redhat still does it but there were a bunch similar to nmtui.

I don’t think that this one is particular complex to write. But you might run into other issues. Let us know if it’s on your system etc. Look in /lib/security/ to see if you have the pam_time.so installed. Might be the first place to go.

For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error. 

It sounds like there is too much diffuse of responsibility

So they pay someone to lock / unlock it, that’s an externalized cost of not solving the issues elsewhere. A little too much on the individualistic side of things.

The way I use a computer changes frequently, having an overly opinionated desktop environment makes it feel like it’s not my computer. I like my computer to work for me at my current time and I don’t mind the inconvenience of modifying settings to get there. I would rather defaults just work but I’m not asking my computer to read my mind. I’ve settled with KDE but I often use other window managers and desktop environments. Last week I used twm for the whole week. Other than scaling issues it was fine.

Use guest mode over incognito.
