The whole thing makes no sense either. If it was some top secret shit, it wouldn't be carried uncovered in the open like that. I'm sure chinese satellites are probably filming all military bases 24/7 already and probably have

Pulling it out of the air isn't feasible. What about pulling it right where it's mostly produced (heavy polluting factories or electricity generators).

In Canada, many people got Pfizer as first dose and Moderna as 2nd. I'm curious to see the data on that. We also got our 2nd dose 2-4month after the first.

Yep, I've actually had every single pixel (XL, 2XL, 3, 4XL and 5). The only one that had issues was the 4XL, with the back peeling. Got a free swap that came in 2 days, and it was fine afterwards. I give my phones down my family afterw

Yep, Apple themselves will find exploits, white hat hackers will find exploits, Project Zero or Microsoft teams will find exploits, and so will NSO or other blackhats. It is a mix of luck, skill and putting in the time. NSO has successfully

The noteworthy angle/point the podcast covers is that NSO is very likely indirectly trying to dig dirt on citizenlab people (same people the post above is from) as they regularly discover their exploits and cost them money. As Jack tal

In my experience cookie control in Chrome have always sucked. There's barebone support in dev tools but everyone time I've wanted to do anything serious, I've always relied on more powerful cookie editing extensions.

The percentage is misleading. it's not people intentionally blocking Google Analytics, it's anyone that runs any adblocker, which almost all block Google Analytics. I installed uBlock for my parents and they don't have the fa

The headline is the perfect anti-Google HN-clickbait, and it is quite misleading. These people just run any ad-blocker, they mostly all block Google Analytics as a side-effect. The majority of those 58% probably don't care about GA spe

Sure but the point is that developers should have the option of rolling out their own solution if they don't need all the features Apple provides or agree with the fee. This in turn creates competition which may reduce rates all around

Is that only considering the price per cheap deal they get from TSMC, or also including the cost of d&d?

Not only that, they clearly show that Android is giving you a list of all the permission the app has, which would look quite sketchy to most people > Access to the device's camera was also gained Again, that's impossible withou

Honestly, I think they should've fully changed the name while at it. youtube-dl is such an antiquated name that doesn't even fit the tool anymore, as it now supports thousands of sources.

1. It's still right there [0], it never went anywhere 2. When companies say things, people say that words are meaningless, we want to see action. But then when they actual put money where their mouth is, now we're back to complain

It's also absurd to me how the answer to "how can folks with whom I generally respect have reached such a significant gap in thinking?" is basically "they must be brainwashed by their Communicating Safely training".

It isn't. Epic literally decided to not use AppStore/PlayStore because they weren't happy with how much money they'd make, so Google decided to improve the money game devs make... They just complain because Google didn&#

I didn't claim it was necessarily paid, just that they were convinced or tricked into it. The piece itself isn't problematic at the surface, putting an end to human trafficking is a good thing, it issue is the people behind the or

> and some prude Christian activists And where do you think FOSTA-SESTA, the legal troubles and the sudden shift of mind from payment processors comes from? Do you think they randomly started to care out of nowhere? At a high level, yes

The article itself was also a side-effect, not the source. Exodus Cry has been lobbying everyone such as payment processors, rich donors, advertisers, as well as NYT (getting them to write the article). So article wasn't the source, it

The tweet that comes right after is much more relevant imo: > One of the primary sources in Kristof’s article is Traffickinghub founder Laila Mickelwait. She also works for the group Exodus Cry, a Christian group that is among other thin

Isn't that the whole point of folding phones? Also android has had side split windows for ever, and on modern phones that have large tall screens, it works fairly decently.

Maybe it changed but the live stream link is an embeded youtube player, which you can rewind on normally. You can also increase playback speed and watch at 1.5x while it's still live if you're catching up to the current time.

It seemed like they were gonna do that. They launched OFTV which was a non-nude platform, which could get on Apple/Google app stores. That was very recently too. Then suddenly this news comes out. Very strange...

That doesn't solve the majority of issues brought up here. Just like it wouldn't solve all the things you mentioned about your colleague posting things you aren't happy about.

So should Google be the moderator of the entire WWW and resolve every single dispute on any websites posting information about someone who doesn't want their information there? Or should no one ever have their website searchable becaus

This is missing the point though. Let's focus on #1 from above; most people who post things online probably want Google to index them and even do SEO tricks to get there. I post stuff about myself on my website because I want people to

Wow, I was wondering why my 2FA wasn't arriving, and I had to use phone call to get my code. Thanks for sharing, Google didn't even bother telling me.

One common approach also it to have auto-sell, which will automatically sell your stock on a schedule which is set long in advance, so there's no suspicion of insider trading. Honestly I think that should be the only way to sell stocks

Can't they just make a new one and recompute the 2nd secret hash on the whole data set fairly easily? Also, the whole point is that it's fairly easy to create a fake image that collides with one hash, but doing it for 2 is exponen

Afghanistan will be busy waring itself. For the past 20 years they probably recruited off the fact that dirty Americans were occupying their glorious country. Now that they're gone, it'll be a straight civil war. They'll be t
