Yeah, but then you break Knox, and can’t EVER fix it. The phone becomes instantly worthless for resale.

Well, the address is over 20 years old… it’s on many, MANY lists, lol.

I actually had it running that way for a while but a couple/few/don’t remember years ago Google started rejecting all the mail :-(

Is the prevailing advice still not to bother with self-hosting email?

From someone who never stopped: YES.

99.95% spam, and no amount of filters and training can do as good a job as Gmail (as much as I hate and would like to get away from Gmail)

I want to turn it off so bad, but fomo, that one email from that one person I knew 25 years ago who only has that email address … fml.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. For the tiny amount of overhead, even the remote console is worth it. Especially when you get into crazy “omg I have so much hardware” homelab territory and have stuff strewn over half your home. Being able to rely on Proxmox being pretty rock solid (if you’re careful and smart about your upgrades and not constantly insisting on running bleeding edge), and being able to access the consoles and ‘reset buttons’ of all your VMs from a single computer is AMAZING.

Oh thank God. Crave is the worst thing to happen to Streaming, ever. I would HAPPILY pay for a Paramount+ subscription (and stop d/ling stuff) to avoid having to try to watch things on Crave. Absolute garbage streaming quality, through the worst streaming app I’ve ever seen. Almost makes me wish Rogers won that war with the even worse service they had! At least when they brought it up to OTT standards they probably would have done a better job that the turkeys at Bell did with Crave. Does it even have 5.1? I’m quite sure it doesn’t have HDR.

This. FS or there’s some shockingly good (looking) stuff on Aliexpress I’ve been considering and have heard good (perhaps sponsored) things about.

I have both of those spywares installed!!

Correct, but not the whole story.

If your registrar goes down, and you have your authoritative DNS anywhere else, then literally nothing happens. They just register the domain for you and give you an interface to pass your ‘glue’ records up to the TLD root servers.

If those glue records point to on-site DNS, or anything that is not your registrar’s DNS servers, then your registrar being down is inconsequential other than that you would not be able to update your glue records, or renew your domain.

A separate question of “what happens if my authoritative servers go down”, is answered above.

The two are not one in the same, though they can be.
