Session disables forward secrecy for no reason.
Personally, I assume it's a honeypot.

If you only ever use services that let you sign up with arbitrary addresses, then sure, you gain resilience against mail provider shenanigans at the expense of exposing a non-agile identifier — the domain name you bought — to any third party you provide with an address.
However, in a confused attempt to stamp out single-use mail services, some sites are rejecting mail addresses that don't originate from one of the big mail providers, like Gmail, iCloud, Outlook. 'Please provide your real mail address', they'd say.
If you aren't using any such service, you can use your own domain. Be wary of services that bounce messages to your "actual" inbox without rewriting the involved addresses (Cloudflare offers something like this, I don't get why though), as that can lead to deliverability issues due to DMARC.
The IAB publishes some Gmail-specific guidance on how to 'normalize' plus-addresses to 'real' inboxes, so that's something that doesn't really do anything for you anymore. Out of the large mail services, iCloud is somewhat notable for offering single-use addresses under the same @icloud.com domain name they use for standard addresses, without having to register extra accounts or other annoying requirements. So websites that want to lock out single-use iCloud addresses would have to block iCloud addresses entirely, which is something they'll most probably refrain from doing.
Like basically all cloud providers, Oracle publish their public-facing IP address ranges.

Many services block these because, as you are pointing out, standing up VPN tunnel routing on a cloud instance is sort of trivial. Cloud providers publish these ranges specifically so anyone can block them easily. If lemmy.world is not blocking Oracle Cloud already, it's only because they just haven't come around to it.
The Switch catalog was limited in no small part because the device just couldn't give acceptable performance for a lot of contemporary cross-platform games. That, of course, didn't matter for first-party titles.
Switch 2 performance is projected to end up somewhere around a base PS4, with better GPU but somewhat diminished CPU. However, it's going to have more memory than the Xbox Series S that teams had trouble porting their games to.
The Switch 2 might benefit a lot from this generation's extended cross-gen period. Add that to franchises like Fire Emblem, Metroid, Mario, Mario Kart, Pikmin and Zelda, and the average consumer is going to think of Steam as the "limited" platform.
A lot of conjecture, and maybe Switch 2 will turn out to be a monumental flop. I'm cautiously optimistic.
By the way, the old, selective policy that Nintendo exercised is pretty much a thing of the past. Just browse through the eShop for three minutes.
Nintendo has moved over 140 million Switch consoles. The Switch 2 might become more, or less successful, but let's just conservatively assume they'll only sell half as many this time around.
Last time I checked, the entire Deck-like category amounted to some seven-digit number of sold devices. The idea that anyone targeting that level of performance is going to skip the Switch 2… is wildly unrealistic.
IIUC the end goal, for any fusion reactor, is to heat up water and drive a steam turbine.
Imagine you could drive a steam turbine at zero cost. What happens if just keeping that turbine running costs more in upkeep than e.g. solar panels do overall?
Is there really much of an economic case for infinite energy on demand (and that is if fusion can be made to work in not just the base load case) if we have infinite energy at home already?

Apart from that, some payment methods (like crypto) allow transmitting arbitrary amounts. At least, paying for years in advance works without issue. You could pay a few cents and try it out, but be mindful of fees.
Auf der einen Seite: "hm, vielleicht werden dann Teslas in den nächsten Monaten günstiger, wenn sie nicht mehr gekauft, oder sogar aktiv abgestoßen werden".
Auf der anderen Seite wäre es interessant, wenn dann irgendwelche Regierungsorgane und/oder Staatsanwälte darauf hinarbeiten, dass die Firma eines Nazi-Sympathisanten in Deutschland nicht mehr geschäftsfähig ist.
In the specific case of Mastodon, an instance pretty much only receives a post via federation if one of its users either follows the creator of that post, or is mentioned in it.
Discoverability suffers, because this also applies to replies to a post even if you follow its poster. You might see them, or you might not. You look at the post history of one of the users in a thread and it comes up empty.
This is not much of a problem if you're in one of the, say, top five instances, but beyond that, many functions become increasingly unreliable. Instead of one big microblogging ocean, it feels more like an assortment of a few lakes and myriad puddles with only tenuous interconnection.
Personally, I've kinda given up on finding (or creating) my One True Instance and am resorting to having profiles on all of the biggest instances. This also has the advantage that arbitrary defederation decisions affect me to a much lesser extent.
Almost all extensions will weaken your security posture. In fact off the top of my head there are basically only two kinds of extensions that could improve it:
- ad blockers
- (maybe!) password manager integrations
Anything else is questionable at best. Maybe you could create browser profiles where you install extensions somewhat more liberally, with decreased expectation of safety.
32-track digital audio workstations became widely available in 1996, paving the way for all-digital audio recording, editing and mastering in more settings than ever before. Supposedly, 1999 saw the first No. 1 hit produced entirely in the digital domain. Almost anything released before that timespan would have been subject to information loss either at recording, or later during post-production.
So I'd say, "before 1996" counts as "oldies" since all we have left from that time is low quality analog material anyway.
To the same effect, any video game console without a digital video/audio output could be considered "retro". By that definition, a PlayStation 2 would be retro, but an original Game Boy wouldn't, because its display is driven digitally…

Ever wanted to call your manager a 🤡 without them noticing? Even if they do notice, there's not a lot of leeway to act on it based on a message like this.
