  • I keep up with US news for years by now and I’m some French dude who shouldn’t care about it. The US is a preview of the next issues my country will encounter so I think it matters to follow some American news.

    I think it doesn’t matter really why American elected Trump twice. It just raises the question on what can we do to change that. And there is nothing else really to do that trying to reach out and convince the other side.

    My main philosophical question out of this is what can you do if your country decides unequivocally and democratically to be racist or Xenophobic or commiting war crimes?

    It also doesn’t really matter as to why a large group of human beings can agree to be racist but I think it definitely says something about humanity. In some way it makes climate change more “acceptable” in my mind. Maybe we do deserve to go extinct if after all this progress and intellectual collaboration all we get is deciding to become racist or discriminatory, to morally fail, to prey on the weak and powerless.

    That’s how bad the US looks for me right now. It’s depressing in general about us humans and not just America. It’s a testament to our ability to be evil and to collaborate to be evil or mean to others.

    We usually get one or two people saying to look for the helpers in time of crisis. There is no helper for this crisis. Good luck living in a dictatorship I guess.




  • Oh I’m sure Adobe has the greatest of intentions on this. Such a reputable company that has a stellar past.

    I’m sure they won’t gatekeep this digital human signature in some atrocious proprietary standard along with an expensive subscription to have the honor of using it.

    Don’t listen to Adobe on AI or even better don’t accept any “idea” or solution from Adobe.







  • I’m not sure why people are trying convince me to change my mind on something.

    I have seen it in my logs with my own eyes. I wish I could be left alone without having to bother looking into it.

    Whatever the reason is. Someone is crawling through dictionaries of address. It is slow but steady. It started with abuse@ and other generic addresses and then started trying names. I blocked the sending SMTP server once I realized what was going-on.

    What am I suppose to do? Ignore it and just triage in inbox?



  • Does it?

    Do you think spammer will just stop at the first address and then call it a day?

    In my experience there is no such thing as a “catch all” domain address. The second your domain leaks then many spammer will just go into a frenzy and try hundreds or thousands of mail aliases.

    Especially since they can’t really spam Gmail as easily (since early 2024) they will even more aggressively spam any other domain.
