Oooo! Depending on your taste you're in for either a very boring movie or the experience of a lifetime. Complete with an associated rabbit hole of mystery surrounding the director:…

I took it as a reference to The Room. Isn't it? :|

I think in this case it's more like you've bought a truck but you put a lawnmower engine in it. It's a big step between esoterics and "please don't use the cheap shitty DAC that wa…

They were the ones opposed to this sale. The sale was basically not a sale but a hostile takeover, and the former staff have now created a non-profit organization under Swedish law…

This does not apply to state events. I still had hundreds of MBs of those after purging :( I think it's not impossible to manage this, just a pain in the ass :D

Yeah, it worked fine for me a bit later.

Running a Matrix homeserver is still quite a pain in the ass, especially because there is no real automatic way to purge old history. Join a busy room once and pay for it in megs o…

That's horrible. I just looked at some farming methods. Man, all the evils of humanity... Caging has been illegal in Switzerland since 1992, that probably makes part of the price d…

Indeed, and if they'd spent their time creating a standard protocol for "modern" chat and implementing a native app per platform they could perhaps be the harbingers of the world's…

I think that's not really fair, only a few bundles a year are actually labeled "Humble Indie Bundle", and those do usually fit the bill and check all three boxes. There were 13 Hum…

It has rows and WIP limits, but does it have the rest?

I've been with them for over a year now as well and not a single issue. The interface is a bit cumbersome in some ways, it's a customized OpenXchange, so some mailbox.org-specific …
