@cstross mine’s always faintly lemon flavoured. I’m not sure I’d like mango more or less. I know I have to avoid lemon squash for months afterwards

@joostvb thanks! Out of curiosity, if you use “system some-command”, and some-command exits signalling failure, what does maildrop do?

@suihkulokki that’s the one I need to look at next. Thanks!

@noahm @suihkulokki I need to look at dovecot’s sieve in particular. I do want a pipe call-out (to a spam classifier) which exim’s sieve implementation doesn’t support (and exim’s own filter language has poor behaviour if the pipe fails: no handling in the filter script; generate a bounce to sender!). Thanks!

Games! I’m spending a tiny bit more time playing games now I’ve submitted. I haven’t picked up No Man’s Sky (not enough time left to do the current expedition Imho); but I’ve spent 2 hours in “citizen sleeper” and it’s great

@paulxthompson ooh they have their own zine (ish) https://bantamtools.com/products/machine-arts-magazine-no-1

@paulxthompson Plotter-friend replied. AxiDraw creators moved to NYC, and the Bantam Tools ones are the same people with more resources behind them, and the Bantam ones are improvements. He said, A4 is a bit too small (!)

@paulxthompson I've been pointed at some suspiciously cheap things on Ali Express https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005005763451182.html
