GPS relies on very very accurate timing. I would wager that the timing side of GPS is used more than the positioning side - but I have no way of confirming that.

Accurate timing is needed for banks accepting/sending payments (not just £5 for the window cleaner - more billions flowing every day).

I hate posting downdetector links, but when companies don't post actual outages on their status page this is all I can do.

I can only assume acknowledging a service being down may hurt them financially so the service monitors are manually changed.

No. Posts are only editable for a small window of time.

I swear I put that at the start of the post. Must've managed to miss it when copy and pasting!

Honestly. This with Paperless-NGX might be game changing if both pointed to the same folder.

That's cool. Yours comes up as stars (*). Must be a HN thing.

Microsoft's new spam filtering is affecting mail deliverability from a number of email service providers. MX Route is recommended here often enough that these issues may crop up for people here

Hot Take: the proactive action of the registrar here is probably more beneficial than the number of false positives captured. If the registrar is aware that Google is hot on blocking potentially harmful sites, it's right that they take action expeditiously.

The bigger problem is the unbanning - for which there should be a better system, probably that should take the form of the registrar having a short grace period to aid in the Google stuff (DNS verification etc.) with additional checks by the registrar to make sure it's not being used for spam/malicious content.

The other point being why was Google banning you so quickly? This is the opaque part. Was the site reported? Was there some URL hijinks? That's the thing you'll probably never find out.

This popped up on my Watch Again part of YT. I figured it may have been a few years since folk seen it and a little but if humour is never s bad thing for a Monday morning.
