security researchers […] are revealing a collection of vulnerabilities they found in 17 audio accessories that use Google’s Fast Pair protocol and are sold by 10 different companies: Sony, Jabra, JBL, Marshall, Xiaomi, Nothing, OnePlus, Soundcore, Logitech, and Google itself.

Right after they reached deals to sell all of those lovely, long, detailed, crowded-sourced articles for AI training data :(

It’s given me Nazi Germanic creeps since the moment it was named the Department of Homeland Security.

Looked at the article. Even on his worst subject, he still has a solid 30% approval rating. His cult will never desert him.

spez always was a scared little bootlicker, with his doomsday bunker and his “at least I won’t be a slave”.

Considering that Alexis Ohanian is involved, it looks like he wants another bite at the apple, so it’ll likely go downhill pretty quickly.

I got 403 on the main lists. But if you scroll down the first page, there’s a link to look up names and photos by state, and those were still working.

It’s been DDoS’d by all the traffic.

It’s stealing our water, poisoning our land, is helping erode trust in institutions and each other, hallucinates, gives bad advice and worse summaries, bothers our hearing, raises our electricity rates dramatically, all but ensures we won’t meet our climate goals, offers us nothing of value, is something none of us wanted and most of us hate, is constantly being pushed down our throats, and is intended to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the talented while preventing the talented from accessing the benefits of wealth.

AI is a cancer and must be destroyed.

I wish they wouldn’t do this, because people are stupid. People are going to be like “I’ll vote for the Democrats bc they’re promising to try to fix things”, without realizing how much time and effort that’s going to take. Biden pulled off a miracle in his soft landing, yet they still voted Trump because the economy wasn’t perfect again. And they simply cannot understand that the economy will never be perfect again.

Running on “we’ll fix the economy” just sets them up for disappointment and failure, and they’re too stupid to see that.

Murkowski and Collins will always fold. Hawley will act tough, then fold. No idea about Young. Oddly enough, probably the most principled one here is Rand.

The first cards were issued in the fall of 1936. I wonder how many people were using this number deliberately because they didn’t trust the government.

Ooooohhh. Civil forfeiture of their cars, vests, weapons, and face masks …

Excellent clarification, thank you!

You are confusing “you can generally follow the plot” (which is what I said) with “paying attention gives you a richer, more entertaining and in-depth experience, with details you won’t be aware of unless you physically watch”.

If you watch a lot of BBC stuff, you’ll find that you can generally follow the plot without necessarily paying too much attention to the screen. In their case, it’s because the BBC originated as a radio broadcaster and their script culture still reflects some of those old styles and practices. The fact that they maintain a robust radio play / audio drama production focus certainly doesn’t hurt either.

She also conveniently retired just a few days after she qualified for her pension.

They’re on extended break because they didn’t want to be forced into publicly voting against extending health care credits.

No.

Right. The US law enforcement personnel who’s authority ends at the US border.
