DNS Made Easy 2048 bit DKIM support

If you have ever attempted to create your own DKIM key for your own mail server you know it can be a daunting task. Every flavor SMTP DKIM configuration is a bit different. Though once you've gotten your SMTP server configured with your private and public key, the easiest part of the entire process should be to make the necessary changes at your DNS provider,right? Unfortunately, not all providers support automatically accepting 2048 bit DKIM keys and you are ready to bang your head against the wall. Why dont they support a 2048 bit key or larger? Well, their system wont automatically handle keys larger than 255 contiguous characters because they haven't updated their interfaces to handle RFC 4408. More on this in a bit.

If you are using DNS Made Easy like I was, you probably ran across the error when trying to enter your DKIM key.

"Contiguous strings may not be longer than 255 characters"

Thankfully, [DNS RFC 4408](https

# Git Push Upstream
# A quick command for people that create a lot of feature branches
#
# Whereas `git push` will return an error if you haven't set the upstream branch
# `gpu` will automatically push to the correct upstream branch
# so you don't have to type `git push --set-upstream origin my_branch` for each new branch

function gpu() {
  local RESPONSE=$( git push 2>&1 )
  local UPSTREAM=$( echo "$RESPONSE" | grep -o "git push --set-upstream origin.*" )

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

This mini-rant came on the heels of an interesting twitter discussion: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/591074055018582016

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
