@mischievoustomato I was on AC power and I configured TLP to set pstate and scheduler tuning knobs to their "performance" settings. This should set power management mostly to no limits.
If I was on "powersave", the difference would probably be significantly lower as everything is noticeably slower when on battery power. -

@mischievoustomato The worst case scenario seems to be fast scrolling. That can go up to +5W (so 9W in total), but that's still almost nothing. And I didn't even try doing any power management. Running stock kernel with tlp service started and that's it. -

@mischievoustomato Max +2W idling on home TL compared to a completely fresh browser only with an empty tab. Usually sitting around +1W.
4W: empty tab
5W-5.8W: Home TL -

@sun @arcana @zaitcev @newt @scathach @mold And yet many companies still find a way to mess it up and have it broken for prolonged durations. Notably GitHub had broken DKIM for a few weeks last year. -

@p @dcc @nyanide @graf @yockeypuck @mint I don't like it either, but it's the only name I know for them that stuck. Other than pedos, nonces etc. -

@zaitcev @arcana @sun @newt @scathach @mold The trick is to set up DKIM/DMARC/SPF properly. If you are low-traffic enough, you won't get put in the spam folder. What also helps is sending a legitimate looking email (not something like "This is a test" to a burner gmail account that has existed for some time and if that get's sent to spam, manually flag it as non-spam.
There are some theories that they use some arbitrary ranking system that checks things like IPv6, DANE, MTA-STS and (START)TLS support and rank those MTAs better, but I've never been able to verify any of that.
The thing with Gmail is also that a lot of legitimate mails from reputable providers get sent to spam anyway. -

@maija @Cyrillic I created like 4 accounts from VPNs all across the globe even with the correct language preferences set in the browser and they always wanted verification. Gave up and never bothered again. -

@Cyrillic @maija Google has been annoying with age restricted videos for more than a year. You actually have to send them a passport/ID, or use a debit card to "verify" your age. There is no known way to decrypt the payload with the stream URLs without going through the verifying process yet. -

@dcc @p @nyanide @graf @yockeypuck @mint Probably both. The admin is known in the pedi for posting shit like that. I've actually encountered one of their posts few weeks ago and forgot to chemo the instance. -

@Merc @Mondobizarrro Same with PXE. Everybody calls it Pixie. And if they are IBM brained, it's ripple. -

@sun Correct and the amount of spam you get suddenly drops to almost zero when you hide behind MS or Google. -

@sun Despite a lot of people complaining about self-hosted email, I never had any problems with it in the last almost 4 years I've been hosting it for myself. That said, in a company context, you must be a special kind of person to even think about self-hosting Exchange and a lunatic if you are thinking about hosting Postfix in $current_year.

@PurpCat Legally they weren't allowed to share them unless cops asked for the samples, but they likely did so anyway. -

To anyone that complains about the possibility of getting their DNA sold to anyone after 23andMe gets bought. What were you thinking when you signed up for it? It was obvious they would end up like this. -
