Nor their history with intercepting/inserting affiliate links. Sure, that was for a crypto site, but nothing suggests that it can’t happen with other things.

Pragmatically, is that really any different with a passcode? Someone might not be able to physically force an unlock like with biometrics by moving the relevant body part over, but there’s certainly nothing stopping someone from forcing you to unlock your phone if you had a passcode through by duress. Most thieves would have certainly wised up enough to force you to remove your passcode before leaving, or they’d watch you unlock your phone, and figured out the passcode that way.
I rather doubt that, if in that kind of situation, there would be many who would resist. Your phone is not worth your life for most.
Personally, if I wasn’t doing anything sensitive, like travelling through some countries (like Australia/the US) or going to a protest, I’d probably keep it on. The convenience makes up for it for the most part.
E-War probably comes close, though.
Incineration is a terrible idea indoors. At best, you’ve now got the smell of cooking and pyrolised human juices filling the place, and at worst, is the house being filled with carbon monoxide from the combustion.
If you were powerful enough, sure. The court is only as strong as its ability to enforce a punishment.
The president is exempt from criminal prosecution for things they did as part of their duties, and if no-one is willing to impeach or impose other punishments, they can be as contemptuous as they like. How would the court stop then?
This seems unrealistically convoluted, to the level of someone who’s just looking for evidence of a conspiracy. A gang symbol is a bit rubbish if you need a cryptography manual to identify it. The whole point of a gang symbol is to advertise that you belong to the gang.
You could probably find a trifecta of 3s and link him to the Illuminati if you tried hard enough.
It also enables a few of the older features, like being able to read replies to a Tweet, now that the website formerly known as Twitter bars it if you’re not logged in.

You can’t just fit a word (8 bytes) onto a punch card like the old days, and you’d need billions of the things go even start matching up to modern storage.
Likely, since he was fleeing El Salvador before he was deported back there.
It’s been lost in the excitement, but before the presidency, one of the concerns about a second Donald Trump presidency was that the US supreme court had ruled, not long prior, that the President just has immunity against criminal prosecution for some things.
It would hardly be a stretch to push that into no-one can do anything about it, because it’s legally permissable, as long as he does it officially.
Not a lawyer, let alone an American Federal one, but I am rather curious if that immunity could extend to just outright ignoring parts of the legal system. Contempt of Court might well be unenforceable because of it, so the court system is basically toothless where the presidency is concerned.
Usually not lungs as they exist in mammals, though.
The glass is also speaking, as opposed to a third person.
T156@lemmy.worldto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•I want to see Vulcan failEnglish1·11 days agoHe certainly seems to think so, though. When he was sharing his emotions with Picard, he was distraught that he wasn’t as open about his fondness for Amanda, before she died.
T156@lemmy.worldto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•I want to see Vulcan failEnglish1·11 days agoAt least if Sarek is any indicstor, they are definitely very restrained. He was quite distraught over not being as affectionate with Amanda as he could have been.
T156@lemmy.worldto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•I want to see Vulcan failEnglish2·11 days agoAlthough it is also important to consider that for both Spock and Michael, they weren’t full Vulcans, but were Human, or part-Human, with all the relevant emotional needs and expression.
It is not implausible that the Vulcan method works with Vulcans, but not nearly as well with non-Vulcans.
T156@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are the odds of a person getting poisoned by food delivery driver? How would the odds change if the person is a public figure (such as Twitch Streamers)?English11·11 days agoPlus, like with Marilyn Monroe, their personality on stream is generally a persona of sorts. They’re going to be very different collecting food and paying for it on their own, compared to when they’re in front of an audience.
You’d be more inclined to think that someone who looked a bit like the streamer received the food.
T156@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Dear Big Tech, Stop Shoving AI Into Operating SystemsEnglish4·11 days agoFair, though in my experience, Debian and Ubuntu weren’t that much better in that regard.
I just went with Arch, because some of the stuff I wanted to use was much newer on it.
T156@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Dear Big Tech, Stop Shoving AI Into Operating SystemsEnglish9·12 days agoI’ve had similar issues with Arch Linux for years. The front panel outright refuses to work on Linux, even after modifying a whole bunch of things.
Your average person is more likely to get frustrated that stuff is broken/doesn’t work, and switch back rather than having to alter module configuration files and things like that to fix it.
It being defrocked implies that it was frocked to begin with, which is a bit surprising.
You’d have thought that they’d get angry at it for impersonating a priest and giving false advice otherwise, since it’s not trained in the papacy like the others.
And normalising it is a good thing all-round. You want privacy to be used for trivial, unimportant things, not for it to be seen as something that only most secret vital things need, and thus something most don’t.
People would be more likely to use it that way.
