You don't think that "mens rights activists, MAGA influencers, manosphere podcasters, and fascists" are a collective?

Ads and tracking infiltrated TVs. Now they're coming for monitors.

According to the article, the monitor installs software onto connected machines, and it runs ads from there

Enough Phone specs released

Wondering the same thing. I would LOVE a replaceable battery, but I know I'm in the minority there. Can you even waterproof a phone with that feature? And if the answer is "yes, but it makes the phone $200 more expensive" then we've got an issue.

An interesting idea, but that would likely make this whole thing much larger. Kinda defeats the phone's best feature, right?

Should go harder IMHO. This ad from the National Congress of American Indians does a good job.

Just a theory but I'm also 100% sure it's true
Related: "A new study by Western University in Ontario says that if you've got a car with a modified exhaust system, odds are you're a guy and probably also psychotic and sadistic."

there is Indeed a problem
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. "Do you want to fill out the application manually, or upload your resume?" You select the latter and upload your resume. Indeed loads the next page: "Please fill out your work history manually." You scream 20 times

Someone opened my phone
Gonna need to know more. What method do you use to lock your phone? Is it rooted?
Also: did they return the phone to you, or to your friend? Could it be your friend who went through these apps?

This is a great point. There are some people who just will never vote for a candidate if they feel that the person supports genocide, even if it means their livelihood will be impacted! I guess we should factor those voters in when we select candidates. Would hate to lose again!

lololol no, you're right, voters should absolutely represent our politicians and not the other way around. Please reply with the same meme again if you agree.

Android's new developer verification rollout begins, sideloading changes are next
The weirdest part to me: this comes after the EU determined that Apple's locked store is too restrictive, and Apple agreed to allow 3rd party stores. Why the hell would Android go in the opposite direction? Will this put them in violation of the same EU regulation?

What's the most deranged political hot take you've ever seen?
Some frat bro looked me dead the eye and was like "We should nuke the Middle East. All of it. How many of them are good people, really?"
This was within 5 minutes of meeting him

I don't think the issue is "I want to do illegal things in public without consequence." It's more, "I don't trust the mechanisms of enforcement to use this power justly."
For example: Radio City Music Hall used facial recognition tech to identify and ban a lawyer whose firm was suing them. She wasn't even working the case. RCMH just issued a blanket ban. It's abusive.
And there are other risks. Stalking is a huge one. (Some creep takes your pic at the supermarket and now you spend a year of your life getting creepy messages and feeling unsafe everywhere you go.) Or there's the risk that people who participate in lawful protest will face retribution or punishment by corrupt law enforcement.
Kashmir Hill has a great book out about this now. You can read an interview with her here.

Kinda think "The #2 Amazon result is an erotic novel where she's a bat monster" is probably not a good look
