I'm using Ghost's blog software for my website. The only integrated option for the native #newsletter tool is #Mailgun.
Sadly, I don't have the know-how to run my own bulk mail server.
Do I best stick with Mailgun or do I go for option two, use a Czech-based #Zapier alternative (Make) that integrates with a German-hosted newsletter service? Or a 3rd option?
@AimeeMaroux Few people are savvy enough to run their own email service! They are such a target for hackers that they are difficult to secure, keep secure, and then keep off of the spam filter lists.
@AimeeMaroux if you're looking for a European-based, privacy driven solution, Proton, based in Switzerland, might be worth looking at. I'm using it personal, but they have business solutions as well. I don't know about your mail volumes/subscriber numbers, so it's hard to guestimate anything. Maybe contact them to get an idea of costs involved? The personal account is free, professional solutions probably not.
Dear #OpenStreetMap, #android, and #vegetarian folks, do you have an app to find vegetarian and #vegan#restaurants?
I used to have OpenMultiMaps that gave me access to OpenVegeMap but the project was discontinued and now I have to use #HappyCow and #VegoResto and I really don't like them...
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: ideally I'd like to discriminate vegan-only/vegan-friendly tags
Please share you favourite band at this exact moment, I don't care what genre it is. Let's make a great thread filled with all kinds of amazing music. Think of it as a music library list #fediverse#music#askfedi
If you found an online course titled "Well-Rounded Software Engineering," what would you expect it to cover? (I'm starting to build a course with that as its working title.)
This article actually covers a lot of what I was going to suggest. Note how it's almost completely language-agnostic, and that's a good thing. "Well Rounded" means you're looking for a very general outlook, a jack of all trades's view, of SWE. So you can't lock your subject matter into any one language, paradigm, platform, library, etc. That leaves you with the soft/technical skills of engineering as a whole, not just SWE.
So the more technical skills would be Analysis, Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Troubleshooting, Communication and Presentation, the scientific method, etc.
The softer skills are more social or environmental: Working in a team, Giving and handling criticism, etc.
What do you like to read for work or in your spare time? (That's related to your job or code more generally). Trying to get a list of content that's actually good and read by real people vs propped up by algorithms.
Send links if possible or give names of sites / blogs / creators.
@mariyadelano now and then I wonder how something works, and then I’ll read the RFC for it. After a while it becomes a bit like reading history. Example: RFC 822 is from 1982, but recognisably describes HTTP/1 headers (and it turns out they’re pretty complicated to parse). PNG (RFC 2083) is another fun one to get to grips with.
I've been thinking about this for a while now, but now I have an acute reason: Someone on a #FediBlockMeta instance is #doxing me.
They use my full name, a profile pic of my face and even post child pictures of me while posting horrific (racist, pedophilic,... ) stuff in between.
I guess two things one can try to do is find out the hoster and the domain registrar and ask them to shut the site down.
But how exactly do I find them out?
Other than that does it make any sense to pursue legal action?
@PaulaToThePeople@seb_tmg you will need to contact the authorities and to put a formal denounce. You should get all the info you can get from the domain and hope that it works but ugh fucking hell people sometimes are cunts
What is your justice system like in your fantasy world? Do sheriffs patrol your lands? Do knights take care of the crime? Does an inquistion or religious group? If there is a famous (or infamous) group or person taking care of justice, tell us about them!
@kas That's for the group. It should show you at least the address: a.gup.pe/u/plants These groups are a project of its own. There are various groups. Plants is active, others sleep.
Any #compsci teachers who use GitHub Codespaces (or similar) for teaching? We're a Chromebook school and can't put student devices into developer mode because of reasons. Codespaces seems like a good fit for different runtimes, but I have zero experience.
Any tips or thoughts would be appreciated. We're hoping to start in fall of 2024, so I have some time to tinker.
Fedi, give me your best vegan (or easily veganizable) spiralizer and/or air fryer recipes! Ideally WFPB (whole foods, plant based), so no oil or refined sugar (salt is fine), but we can easily modify vegan recipes to make them WFPB (so it's nice but not necessary).
