semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003
when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

I am following up on the interesting thing where `truecrypt.org` was purchased in early 2025. It looks like it is basically the same as it was before it went to auction, but the footer has this weird Trump comment in it.

Upgraded my mailinabox server today to ubuntu 24.04 before I learned that ubuntu 24.04 is not supported by mailinabox. The mail sending and receiving part still works but I'd be willing to bet a bunch of other random things are going to be broken that I won't notice bc the web dashboard is broken
