The real question is always in the comments.

No joke there, you’re completely correct.

I found some of my old code a while back that said: Got interrupted killing children? better stop.

Hey it’s me ur brother…

Can’t wait to hear all my republican relatives be pissed off about this.

It’s always impressive to me that instead of sending billions of dollars to Microsoft, the US government could have had an entire operating system that caters exactly to them. They could have then given back in the form of commits improving the software for the rest of us too.

Oh I can’t wait for these support calls on Monday!

It puts the toner on the paper or else it gets the hose again.

This has got to be satire right?

Sometimes the issue is marked as fixed but a new version won’t be coming out for months and you’re simply told to compile it yourself only to find it has literally hundreds of carefully tuned compilation dependencies and environment specific settings that aren’t documented.

Thanks for the tip! I just subscribed.

As everyone has mentioned SPF/DKIM/DMARC is the absolute minimum. If you’re going to be sending your own mail then a PTR record is absolutely required. Also get registered dnswl.org and other whitelist sites. Be prepared to spend some time tracking down why the occasional email goes to spam. Then there’s the onslaught of bots and hackers constantly trying to break in.

I’ve used Mailu to host my own mail server, and at my work we have a standard Postfix/Dovecot setup.

My recommendation is to use Fastmail, Proton, or some other service to save you the headache.

That seems to be the problem! My traceroute was showing my traffic emerging from Seattle so that makes sense why it was down. Thank you!

You can tell your age by the fact that you were emailing an exe file.

Keep in mind you’ll also need a static IP address somewhere (price varies). Whether that’s on your home connection or a vps, you’ll likely run into delivery problems periodically.

My boss is going to be out of town for 3 weeks so I may just use the office printer to make this happen.

Heck to the yeah. I usually run

rsync -av src/ dst/

Which is verbose and archive mode (keeps mod times, user, etc). You can also add -P for progress.

Here is the man page https://linux.die.net/man/1/rsync

If it gets interrupted, just run that same command again.

Edit: also it’s usually preinstalled on every Linux distro and should be easy to install for Windows too.

Have you tried rsync?

Also SO might mention the documentation is wrong and this is what API XYZ really does.

Well that explains SO much. He really is an Elon wannabe.
