  • I’m kinda hoping it was just that a state sponsored attacker showed up on their door and said “include this snippet or else…” otherwise it’s terrifying thinking of someone planning some long con like this

  • It’s worse than you thought.

    The webmail provider released a dedicated browser that can only open the webmail and called it a “desktop” app.

    Additionally, they don’t support IMAP. There’s an app to run on your computer that becomes a bridge. The proprietary protocol is translated to IMAP. You can’t use your favorite client if your operating system can’t run that bridge and you’re not a premium user because for “reasons” only premium users can run that local bridge

    My iMac is gathering dust. It can’t run Debian due to proprietary video shit, so all I get is a black screen at boot. Tried fedora and my USB mouse doesn’t work at boot, I have to unplug and replug every single time. Who knows what kind of proprietary assholery they did to the USB stack

    I should just sell it but I’m keeping it for “what if one day I need to open some iWork files?” - although i already proven a month ago that it would not correctly open iWork documents created with the latest version
