Welp, the latest @thunderbird update has broken my ability to send work emails (and yes, it's definitely the update that's caused it not anything else - on my work inbox it's giving timeouts on all emails since the update, and I checked by updating it on another computer which triggered the exact same bug).

So I hope they fix that soon or I'll have to find another email client which would be a pain :(

We asked Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for his and his staff’s emails with Elon Musk and Musk’s companies.

The governor’s office won’t turn them over, saying some contain “intimate and embarrassing” information that is “not of legitimate concern to the public.”

@Tutanota Hilarious, your three identical responses seem thoughtful and sincere, not like automated corpo-bullshit at all.

Also, if a human from Tuta reads this: I don't believe for a second that you didn't know what kind of ethics Gnoppix had. Just a glance to their site is enough to fill a human brain with red flags.

I’ve begun my journey to reduce my reliance on US tech, so it’s time for an update on how it’s all going.

No surprise, some services are far more easy to replace than others. Email and streaming are low-hanging fruit; maps and messaging can be more difficult. But we should still make the effort.

"Sie führt dazu, dass in den E-Mails der Nutzer deutsche Texte absurderweise erneut ins Deutsche "übersetzt" werden – wobei die miserable Google-Technologie fehlerhafte Ergebnisse halluziniert. Dabei werden Grammatik- und Rechtschreibfehler eingebaut, in vielen Fällen auch Texte grob sinnentstellt. "
