I was making a joke, but I guess I forgot what site I'm on.

My naïve guess is that this is probably some sort of lock contention thing.

When you turn off bluetooth from CC, it’s not even turning it off. The radio is still on - it just doesn’t make any new connections. You have to turn it off in preferences for that.

Virus that escaped from a lab != intentionally engineered synthetic virus.

Well, I think in this particular case, the mixed usage of different pronouns is what makes it unclear. There’s usually nothing wrong with using singular “they” - and it’s not a new thing, not by a long shot.
Re:Turnstile: privacy-preserving alternative to CAPTCHA by Cloudflare

Interesting. I wonder what other factors you might have going against you causing CF to captcha you - I have my Firefox loaded up with almost every ad-blocking, privacy, and anti-fingerprinting extension I could think of, but I rarely get CAPTCHAs.

I see what you mean, I misunderstood.

Re:Woman sues after DNA from rape kit used to arrest her

It’s a matter of not disincentivizing victims from cooperating with law enforcement. If there’s the possibility that some information you give the police could be used to prosecute you in the future, that could deter people from going to the police or seeking justice in the first place.
In terms of DNA specifically, it’s kind of a weird power play to say “if you want us to convict the person who raped you, we’ll have to put your DNA into our database to make it easier to convict you in the future”.

I cannot tell if you’re just going along with the bit, or if you’re completely serious. Either way, absolutely hilarious

I've found that DDG (and by some extension, Bing) seems to do a little bit better at this. But, the only search engine I've found that actually does a good job at this is Kagi. It's really good at filtering out those SEO spam articles, and even separates out stuff like listicles when it's not what you're looking for.

Maybe reading the original Psychology Today article would be better than this Daily Mail piece... Either way, it doesn't consist of much substance. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-state-our-unions...
Re:Who is collecting data from your car?
on Saturday July 30, 2022 @03:33PM (#32289587)
I don't know why I never considered that my car may be collecting data on me. I have a Hyundai, and I just went into my settings to turn off as much of this as possible. I wonder if there's a way to disconnect the antenna or deactivate the cell service since I don't need it...

This gist is from 2020. OBS does support Wayland now, AFAIK.
