  • Google and Microsoft didn’t “kill” the decentralised e-mail of yesteryear. They beat it fair and square

    Sure, they might’ve cornered the market fair and square, but they’re certainly doing anticompetitive things in keeping it cornered.

    Just try setting up a mail server not connected to any of the big corpos (Google, MS, Cloudflare or their clients with more niche marketing) and see who will actually recieve your mails. You most likely won’t land into the Spam folder either.
















  • I’m wondering how American friends look at paying by card what you owe the restaurant while paying the tip in cash. Even though these slimy tip gadgets are invading Europe en masse, they’re still not nearly as ubiquitous as they are in the States. So my question is why isn’t it as common to saying you always tip 10% at the register and give the rest in cash so it goes to the server and not into the tip pool?
