he was hired at 13 an hour. Now it’s 11
You mean that new people get a lower starting wage? Or that his own wage has been lowered?

I think it’s good general knowledge to understand how a computer works.
I really like this video about transistors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Pqfjer8-O4


Lmao. There’s so many layers to this.


Russia has become very good in blocking all kinds of VPN and even obfuscated VPN traffic.
My Russian friend is currently using VLESS to bypass the Deep Packet Inspection and it seems very promising.


A lot of Android bot devices simulate (or even ARE) a full phone with a legit Play Store and other Google services.
This requirement is enforced vendor lock in. Nothing more.


I just use VSCodium that has this stuff disabled by default.

I changed the extension gallery from OpenVSX to the Visual Studio Marketplace for some extensions though.


Lmao. $227k just to get heard. Looks like it’s time for a .227k domain.
You’re describing what most people have from too much caffeine. So maybe your tolerance is just much lower. Or maybe you chug coffee like crazy.


You know what’s funny? The fact that they could have done this ages ago.


Tor exit nodes are public and even easier to block than VPNs.


There’s services that not only check for known VPN servers, but also for IPs in datacenter IP blocks. So using a VPS could in theory also be blocked.
Sadly the UK didn’t take over much of the consumer laws during its EU membership because it being hidden like that is not allowed.


It’s too dangerous for Google not to get a 30% split.


There has been a lot of marketing done towards non techies regarding charge speeds, so most common people do know about it. Plus most people will also just buy the one the companies will suggest or bundle.
A little side thing that’s also important is that in Europe the salespeople aren’t simply trying to get you to buy their product with the highest markup, which means you’ll get people that will actually look up your laptop and sell you a correct charger.
Aftermarket crap is a thing though, but from what I’ve seen most people will understand it’s because they bought cheap Chinese stuff.


You can probably port it to a userscript without much trouble, and then you can use it in every browser using a single extension/addon along with other userscripts (which you can easily read the source code and disable auto updates of). I use Violentmonkey and have written a few scripts. Development and usage is easier than extensions/addons for personal stuff.
Personally I just use Dark Reader though.


In the EU you must give explicit consent.


Then the EU can force Google to remove or disable them for EU users.
K-holes are fun though.


Coming from the creator of a search engine that does “anchor hijacking” where it sends a request about what link you click even if you hover over the link and only see the original URL in the bottom.
Why throw them away?
Good counterintelligence would be to get as many as possible and reverse engineer them.
