    Aha. #Claws-mail isn't saving the filters at all. I could install #Sylpheed and see whether it has working filters, but I'm already pretty sure #Thunderbird will do what I want.

    LOL. This is exactly how I feel when people are telling me about their latest Internet-connected devices.

    Me: You bought a "smart" dishwasher? Why in the world would you do that? Why do you need to subscribe to someone's cloud service to keep from dying of salmonella? What happens when you p*ss someone off in one of your Facebook arguments and they hijack your account and prevent you from using your fancy, overpriced dishwasher?

    #Claws-mail’s filtering seems to be broken. I do have #Thunderbird installed, so maybe I’ll switch again.

    I don’t know if it is CM or the mail host that caught the Black Friday junk mail and sent it to the spambox. If it is CM, that’s the only filter that seems to work.

    #sonTwo texted to tell me that his in-laws bought them a bread machine.

    Me: Oh, cool! I was thinking the same thing, but it's beyond my current budget.

    They can sometimes be competitive, but I'm more of *good, you're helping take care of our kids and grandkids*

    Umm, yeah. As I recall the story, you were purchased by a shady malware vendor. I’m happy to stay away from you also.

    Black Friday is HERE!!!

    Yes, #ChicagoVPS, I know. But you should realize that when I shut down my last #VPS with some funds still in my account and never even tried to get a refund that I was probably more interested in getting away you quickly and putting some distance between us than trying to get a few dollars back.

    I still have no desire to do business with you. I’m not saying that others should not, it’s just that you were apparently bought by #ColoCrossing, and I know how badly most of their companies (and clients too, apparently) can be. Remember #123Systems?

    I heard someone discussing this today: https://bankgreenwood.com/

    It is not a bank, judging by its non-membership in the FDIC, but it is providing financial services targeting Black and Hispanic communities.

    Oddly, #GSA is sending me links for training as a purchasing agent / acquisitions specialist. They’re not even my agency, and that’s not my specialty.

    Logged into #GitHub for the first time in years. It immediately asked me to verify my e-mail address (the same one I've had and verified with them years ago). I'm going to have to create another address (a public one) to use, so I can generate new #GPG keys.

    Going to have to put something up there for job-hunting purposes. I'll use it as a backup or something, so I've got content there, but whatever I do is not entirely dependent on their goodwill. We all know that we shouldn't willingly give corporations the ability to control us, but I'm hoping to be one of the few that acts on this knowledge.

    NZ Herald: #Sweden's herd immunity strategy has failed, hospitals inundated https://nu.federati.net/url/278422 [www nzherald co nz]

    That's silly. Even when they were first talking about herd immunity, it was expected that 60%-80% of the population would have to have been infected before there were noticeable protective effects.

    AFAIK, no nation on earth is anywhere near that point yet, and that's even without the possibility of re-infection.

    It's more likely that their strategy wasn't about reaching herd immunity, but about using only techniques they believe are both effective and non-invasive.

    The last few days, I've been too busy preparing for Thanksgiving to apply to any job openings. Going to try to catch up today.

    If you take out all the filters, #CalJobs generally has minimum wage retail jobs 60-100 miles away, but this year, they actually have a lot of jobs nearby ... if you're either a nurse or a teacher, both of which require state licensing that I don't have or want.

    Good morning. Finished with today's #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ).

    Didn't have a #videochat with any of the kids or grandkids yesterday.
