Please reply to the mailing list instead of just me + the mailing list
in the CC, since we're both subscribed to the same mailing list, it'll
arrive in my mailbox as well anyway.

No need to have a special hardware, you can just hook any router with
PPPoE functionality to the NTT modem, configure PPPoE to those
providers, and assign the static IP to a web server.
You can't do this on a KDDI gateway, because that thing is also a
router, connecting any router to it renders you unable to connect to the
internet, which is rather frustrating.

Did you know that?
90% of all emails sent on a daily basis are being sent in plain text, and it's super easy to intercept emails as they flow over the internet?
Never send passwords, tokens, personal information, or other volunerable information without proper PGP encryption!

If you're writing your emails unencrypted, please consider sending PGP encrypted emails for security reasons.
You can find my PGP public key at: https://fair.moe/lain.asc

Every good email client is able to send encrypted emails.
If yours can't, then you should consider switching to a secure email client, because yours just sucks.

My recommendations are Claws Mail or NeoMutt.
