The fact that he says that and they don’t pick up on the full meaning of it is telling.

If you’re serious, it depends on the film, but a REMUX file will be a lossless playable file of what’s in the disc.

Which is funny, because none of this shit is controversial anymore. But it’s all still very illegal!

They definitely have. They definitely also DNGAF whether anyone opts out.

According to the article, if not connected to the Internet, they store the data locally and then upload it when they next get an Internet connection.

I guess I’m glad I cut the power to the tv when not in use, in addition to blocking its connection at my router.

What an age we live in

Obviously, it’s very bad to contaminate drinking water through mining. However,

“The health effects of long-term, low-level lithium exposure remain uncertain,” according to senior author Kathrin Schilling, PhD, MSc, assistant professor of Environmental Health Sciences at Columbia Mailman School of Public Health. “While lithium has been used safely for decades as a medication to treat bipolar disorder at doses far higher than environmental exposure levels, less is known about the potential health implications of chronic exposure through drinking water.”

There are numerous studies that show other benefits of higher lithium levels in the blood as well. Mining runoff would be my last choice for a source, of course.

This season’s writing is so on the nose. I don’t know if it’s believable.

I can think of a hundred issues more pressing to the American public than the existence of same-sex marriage: inflation, the cost of healthcare, national security, the war in Gaza — the list goes on.

And yet:

When the “woke” mania swept the country in 2020, I took a step back and reevaluated where I stood and why I stood there. To my surprise, I found that I agreed with conservatives and libertarians on a number of issues. I opposed childhood gender transitions, unlawful and divisive DEI mandates, and the excesses of Critical Race Theory. I argued against biological males competing in women’s sports and being housed in women’s prisons. I did so loudly and publicly, losing many friends along the way. My stance wasn’t rooted in hate or fear but in a commitment to reason and fairness.

The researchers responsibly disclosed FROST to Google, Apple, and Mozilla before publishing. The responses are worth reading carefully:

• Google said it does not consider browser fingerprinting to be a security vulnerability.

• Apple described the attack as “currently out of scope,” with possible mitigations in the future.

• Mozilla acknowledged the findings but has not implemented any fix.

In other words, the three companies that ship some of the world’s most-used browsers have collectively said “ok, not my concern”.

Fingerprinting is treated as a known cost of doing business on the modern web, and a side channel that leaks tab and application data through a storage API is, apparently, not a fire worth putting out.
