Just a shiny male toy…
Agreed, if linoleum is in fact what was meant I have no issue with it. But even in my own home as a young lad, salesman used “linoleum” repeatedly and they rolled out a huge stinking sheet of vinyl in my kitchen.
I’ll never forget or forgive how horrible it wound up being.
Security is a layering problem. Don’t make it easy even if it’s difficult to indeed defend against deep pockets.
I’ve heard & seen vinyl and linoleum used interchangeably over a lifetime, and I don’t believe the original recipe is still manufactured so far as I have seen.
Even if it is still being manufactured, the vast majority of people talking about linoleum seem to mean vinyl. I’m going with the average vernacular, and still stand by all my original points re: vinyl.
Then get a VPN now, and don’t get off it. Make sure it’s a reputable one.
Ugh… Well, guess I’m getting disappeared 3x.
I haven’t seen the original form of linoleum made it installed anywhere on any jobsite I’ve ever worked.
I realize the term has been co-opted by the plastics industry, but if you’re specifying the original linseed oil recipe from the 1870s, you need to specify that.
Vinyl and linoleum have been interchangeable terms in modern parlance for several lifetimes at this point.
Hell no, it looks terrible so quickly. The patterns to make it look like “wood” or whatever are at most a millimeter deep, so enough usage and suddenly you have a worn out blank spot in your giant piece of shit plastic floor.
It outgasses forever, you’re funding the fossil fuel industry, it looks and feels like shit, and you’ll throw it out in 5-10yrs.
Tldr, fuck linoleum, it is inferior in all but one metric: water resistance.
Good stuff, thanks. Tricky problem to solve, generally speaking 😑
Sigh, openinsulin.org really needs to make faster progress.
Cry about it and reflect on it, bitch.
What a piss poor brain you have.
🤷 sometimes people grumble quietly until a final straw is added to the stack. Not surprising.
I see a lot of good discussion here. I’ve been on proton for years now, using my own domain. While true that Andy is one of 5 board members, and it’s a nonprofit etc, these statements are raising hairs on my neck, personally.
Does anyone have a good guide on problems associated with self-hosting email?
Damn, that’s critical for my needs.
Don’t forget the sodium and the chlorine too
Yeah but you know what? That’s still better than actively engaging with their “services”.
Eventually, it’ll just be bots interacting with themselves, given enough time.
That it’s reliable. The key point they’re selling is that devs don’t need to optimize their engines as much, of course obfuscated under a lot of other value-adds.
I’d go further than this and say part of our problems are generally that optimization of code isn’t a focus anymore. Apps which merely interface with web APIs are more than 90mb sometimes. That’s embarrassing.
That an AI can step in as savior for poor coding practices, is really a bandage stuck on the root cause.
There’s dozens of us.
