The keyboard with the best prediction and self learning was my (first smartphone) Sony Xperia Z5 from 2015. I only realized it was a Sony specific app later in life. (I didn't understand auto correction memes until I got a work phone with a google keyboard.) Sadly they don't offer it as a stand alone app. I would pay for it.

I have settled for FUTO Keyboard for now. Bevor that I used SwiftKey. (The Sony is still the only one where I did see contextual self-learning/prediction.)


So you are the guy that poisons people with this generated cookbooks.


I assume you're referring to this issue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwp_WEdJaEk , yes?


We should be able to claim our landlords as dependents on taxes.


How does the government know which token a ID card generated? The ID card itself generates (for each service a different one) and encrypts it. Not even the card reader can read it. It is a encrypted channel between the card and the ID-server for the site/service. The pseudonym function does not identify a person but a card.


If it identifies the card and the govt can identify you by your card then isn't it by definition identifying the person?


The government doesn't know which card a token from a "pseudonym function" belongs to. The government can identify a person when the ID function was used, of course.

Again, it is a random token the card generates internally for each service. It is non transferable! If you get a new ID card, you can't use it login to whatever you used your old card for. (You would need something else... say an email :-) to tie the knot back to the old identity or whatever.) Which makes this function, the pseudonym function, very bad for random accounts (Edit: meaning longer lasting online identities like forums or whatever). I guess eaglemfo didn't knew.

It's more for like "yes, yes, I'm an adult, now give me this pr0n movie which I pay for with my anonym prepaid card" kind of deals.


Or you hold our ID card to your phone and do it on the spot.

The joy of CGNAT.


Even the longest journey begins with one step.

I have a similar mail address pattern (ebay-534389@foo etc.) When I started 7 years ago. I opened my password safe and changed one account after another. If the old account received something I overlooked and I was still interested in it, I changed this address too. A year later and the old address receives nothing anymore.

Nothings stops me or you from changing it back.

Update: And yes, there are a million providers that provide a catch-all mechanism. Even some domain registrars provide catch-all forwarding.


I run my own mail server since 7 years. (OpenSMTPD and Dovecot for IMAP (NextCloud for contacts and calendar) on OpenBSD.)

Apart from rDNS and FCrDNS (which the connecting host has to have) I don't have a Spam filter (and never had). I create a new mail address for everything. (name-number@...) I have gotten like ~2 Spam mails.

(I still have my 25 year old GMX address. (I even have premium.) I use it for my providers in order not to create a chicken and egg problem. Only my MX is public. Everything else is behind a VPN.)


Respect has to be earned.
