TOS S1E27 "The Alternative Factor"

TL;DR:

Incorporating Tails into the Tor Project's structure allows for easier collaboration, better sustainability, reduced overhead, and expanded training and outreach programs to counter a larger number of digital threats.

...and then Dennis comes along and takes the $4 from Dee's purse and puts it in the cash register anyway.

My previous explanation that is probably incorrect: https://litter.catbox.moe/iblc2r.jpg

I had no idea this issue had been identified. While I find this tool very useful, the project is seeming rather questionable to me now.

It makes more sense to me to have the switches appear as red when the device has the ability to record you. When color is used as an indicator for something, the general convention is that red is negative. Meaning that there is a greater possibility of something going wrong when a red indicator is being displayed. You could argue that "webcam is not working for some reason" is a negative, and that seeing the bright red indicator can bring your attention to the switch as a hint to how to fix the issue. I would argue against that by stating that having a webcam record you when you do not want it to is a much bigger potential negative than the webcam not recording when you do want it to.

Also:

• When a traditional video camera displays a red indicator light, that means the camera is recording.
• On the underside of the Framework 16, the expansion module latches are red when disengaged

PolyCube is a block-stacking puzzle game in full 3D, with optional VR support. Move and spin your block pieces in all directions to place them in the puzzle before time is up and the piece drops.

The developer was a full-time web dev who wanted to try out solo game development, but they ended up hating the business management side of things, so they eventually gave up the "hobby" and just set the game to free permanently.

I just came across this linked to in the Obtainium README. It is sort of a Ninite-like webpage that allows you to quickly and easily add apps from a curated list into Obtainium on your device. Really useful when setting up a new device or something.

I do wish it was more like Ninite, in that you currently have to tap the "Add to Obtainium" button under each and every individual app that you want go add . I wish this site also allowed you to instead check a checkbox on each app that you want, and then press one button that would add all the checked apps to Obtainium for you.
