She can't "own" people, don't be ridiculous now. She can only compel them with violence into servitude and extract the fruits of their labor. But ownership? That's messed up.

Yeah this one's an ancient one. I think this might actually even predate Reddit

You can't leave purgatory at will

It's not a single tense (would have - past conditional, had to - past modal, have been - pluperfect), it's a hypothetical past state being caused by a hypothetical past event, but the trick here is that the "past state" is omitted because it's contextually read. If you were giving full context it'd read: "If it was spitting out sensitive information, it would have had to have been trained on it."

Take that, ESL learners!

I use windirstat almost monthly and have never heard of WizTree. Keeping this in mind for next time I use it.

Though at this point, maybe I should just commit honestly

I think he saw the other person, maybe even heard him say something like "I GOT THIS" and made way. You can hardly fit both of them on it.

This is the approach I use, not sure if it'll work for your use case but I can assure you it works for at least a few users. It's all sort of manual set up but from your comments it sounds like you're just doing this for friends and family and not on an enterprise level. I admire your efforts!

First off, I have a purelymail account on which I set up domains and accounts for each user. I have mine set up so user1@anydomain.com all goes to the user1 mailbox (and user2@anydomain.com goes to the user2 inbox regardless of domain, etc.) but you can set up some pretty complex routing if you want - and if you know a bit of sieve there's even that. Purelymail handles the actual email sending/receiving so I'm putting a lot of trust in them, but it seems like they have a good track record and I don't think I could do better on my own. Plus they're dirt cheap. My big concern with email is always deliverability. Anyway, you'll see this is all set up in such a way that I'm using purelymail now, but I'm not tied down to them.

Second, I use this image (linking to the repo and not the docker hub version so you can inspect the Docker file for opsec reasons. In my set up I build it from source because I have a couple modifications) which is a dovecot IMAP server + getmail. This is python getmail not go-getmail and not fetchmail. The repo itself has some pretty straightforward instructions but the way it works is basically that users inside the docker container each map to a mail directory. So each user's credentials is actually a Linux username and password within the container. I have mine set up so it's like user1, user2, etc. (which confused my users initially because automatic set up forms are never set up this way) but you could set it up however you need. Then, there's a Cron set up to run getmail which you have to configure yourself within a cron.d folder that you mount on the container. For mine I have it configured to use POP3 so that when it gets stuff off purelymail it's automatically deleted.

Finally, you just set up your mail clients to use this IMAP server and purelymail's SMTP but if you know how to set up a forwarder you can always have it relay through purelymail. Purelymail even has the ability to relay emails to your SMTP server.

I believe they're talking about the responses, not the original post.

Stop 👏 trying 👏 to make 👏 fetch 👏 happen 👏👏👏

Or is the clap more of a millennial thing 🤔

You might just be asymptomatic or immune. Congrats!
