Surely that must use conventional HTTP referrer data—for which we have well established standards, decades of experience managing interactions and edge cases, and norms for respecting user consent—and not some apparently wishful query param

For another perspective, I can offer the data point that the one dynamic feed generator I’ve written supports both If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match, and that I considered that to be an obvious requirement from the beginning.

Not familiar with this project but I’ve taken a “selfie” with Seattle’s live traffic cameras and it didn’t involve violating any traffic laws. The video lag was such that you could wave at the camera halfway through a crosswalk, get safely

I do submit a complaint for each instance. I’ve sent over a thousand now. Hopefully it’s useful data to someone. My intent isn’t to reverse-spam the FCC though; the complaint form just only accepts one phone number at a time. Amusingly I’ve

Yeah, my price just changed from €7.05 to €8.99—in the name of fairness to low impact users? It’s brazenly nonsensical. It would be so much better if they’d just said “sorry but we need to raise prices”. The attempt to sugarcoat it is insul

Yep, US political spam is unblockable. I receive “wait, you’re a Republican, this can’t be right‽” style SMS messages from 10–20 unique phone numbers every day. The FCC’s spam complaint form only accepts one sender number per submission so

I’ve encountered a couple instances of businesses that 1) send me unsolicited marketing mail, 2) react to that being flagged as spam by internally blocklisting me, then 3) silently fail to send transactional mail such as password resets.

I use a short userscript to “mark as read” comments on hover. They just get a different color so I can hop around and know where to resume. It’s particularly helpful with active threads where new comments appear in the middle.

I had the same reaction; recognize 3, knowingly eaten 2 (decades ago), purchased 0. It’s surprising to hear that this is the largest bakery in the US. Maybe bakeries localize well so none grow very large?
