The metadata-issue is addressed in their FAQ

And to the blocking issue:

There are significant benefits to using email as transport in a hostile network environment. As mentioned above, it is infeasible to block email protocols across a network, because everyone relies on email for everything. Since there’s no way to differentiate Delta Chat messages from emails on a network, Delta Chat protocols can’t be blocked without blocking all email. Individual Delta Chat servers can be blocked, but the protocol cannot be blocked network-wide.

From signal-contingency-plan.info

Deltachat is really good, decentralized and basically unblockable (unless the government blocks the email protocol… which would break the internet)

The price comparison is that it costs $0 to have a genAI make your logo and more than that to pay a human.

At least until enshittifaction hits big time.

I guess that person didn’t know they could set it up themselves. Maybe they meant that it’s installed and configured automatically on new installs.

But you can choose your login manager on Arch, too.

I blame Stephanie Sterling mentioning Sacred 2

I think it wasn’t as easy as that he “sold” the rights. If I recall correctly it was more like “we get the rights or the comic won’t happen”.

Remember that this was the 80s, where you needed a publisher for comics.

One of the core messages of Watchmen was that the concept of a superhero is in core a fascistic one. It’s highly unlikely that further adaptions of the sourge material take the same, heavy stance.

I think he’s completely in the right on that front. No one needed that Snyder Film, or a prequel. And you could argue that the HBO series completely goes against the spirit of the OG comic. Even if it’s competently made.

Considering how the adaptions usually pan out: I’d say his negativity is warranted.

Why, what did he do?

Not another “τ instead of π” debate! D:

This video shows the difference quite neatly. (Timestamp included for Earthworm Jim)

Shrek and Sonic are obviously in a polycule.

It was a joke.

Maybe the furries were onto something after all… /j

AFAIK: Yes. But it’s supposedly a pain to set up, so I’ll never know the difference.

Mush it with Butter.

Cats like mice. I don’t. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
