All good. I tell people how to add another mailbox to their Outlook, "click here, now there". Not glorious. Necessary anyways.

Companies pay for it. And except for their DERP servers, free users don't cost them much.

Yes, but it tunnels arbitrary IP packets encapsulated in UDP.

So, the response is here. Without a closer look I can't say what's really going on - although I lean toward believing that Core is going in the right direction - but there still seem to be some orange flags.

Unfortunate. I'll wait some days for the response, but it better be a good one.

This behavior from Core may be par for the course, but I can already buy watches from companies that have values only for marketing. It's a small niche, and being nice would not cost much.

And they already died once, without having a proper off-ramp for their users - for now I don't trust them to exist in another two years. (I'm not really sure they even are in this for the long term - talk is cheap.)

Cities may find themselves in other countries easier than on other continents.

And also, some tools still break when using the non-default umask.

Yes, yes, we all run Postgres in containers, but if you don't, and you upgrade to a new Postgres major version, gladly using the Debian scripts that make it all more comfortable, while using umask 027, you will enjoy your day. Though I don't remember if those upgrade-scripts where from Debian proper or from Postgres.

Since that experience I always wondered what other tools may have such bugs lurking around.

I once had a colleague from Iran. Working (legally) in the middle of the EU. He was already blocked from using credit cards, but thanks to not-100%-US-dominance still allowed to use local banks. For such local banking he will likely need to have Play services.

It's not countries that are affected, but people. And people sometimes move.

All these announces are scenery and promotion. Very low chance any of these "corrections" were not planned. For some reason, sama et al. make me feel like a mouse played with by a cat.

Not just Postgres. It's in the SQL standard, and widely supported.
