Oh you're right. Silly Mozilla adding protections to their browser for their user-base. That's it everyone. Shut down Mozilla and have all the users switch over to Brave. Brandon Eich's got everything covered.

I think conciousness would be a potential property of matter, but no not all matter is conscious. The question should actually be: Does all conciousness have matter? Which brings up many more questions, such as: What even is the topic?

I like TablePlus, but at $59/yr a license is ridiculous. Luckily the feature set isn't that much greater with a license, just minor annoyance on tabs which I've developed a habit of closing a tab as soon as I don't need
