They're asking why you use an outdated version of Firefox, not why you use Firefox.

Edit: I assume you're using it in the "Good 'ole Firefox" sense?

For the same reason you should stand up to the police when you know your rights, because if you don't, what's the outcome then?

Have you ever disclosed a vulnerability? Ever had one to disclose?

Full quote, which seems to say it defies the expected effects of dilution _because_ the chemists weren't bothered by it when they were right next to it, but when they were many yards away they could.

"The odours defied the expected effects of dilution since workers in the laboratory did not find the odours intolerable ... and genuinely denied responsibility since they were working in closed systems. To convince them otherwise, they were dispersed with other observers around the laboratory, at distances up to a quarter of a mile, and one drop of either acetone gem-dithiol or the mother liquors from crude trithioacetone crystallisations were placed on a watch glass in a fume cupboard. The odour was detected downwind in seconds."

In other words, the smell intensity increases with dilution, _not_ decreases. We must protect this data from the homeopaths.

These comments are doom and gloom from people who have read articles but haven't been there. I've reported over a dozen medium size leaks and not once has the company tried to come after me. They haven't all fixed them, and for those I haven't pushed, but most of the time they're grateful. If you're worried, contact Troy Hunt and have him be an intermediary for you, as others have suggested.

That feature disables the airtag. The airtag then no longer functions as an airtag.

They paint stripes on cows to keep the horseflies away, so it's worth looking into.

WordPress logs all comment IP addresses forever.

That's what proxies are for.

That's three things with an off-by-one error.

2020 patent for a cylindrical lighter than air craft able to hover and maneuver.

The last image shows that the end object is meant to be cylindrical, the oval-shaped device is the interior.

Does this suffer from the same problem as VPNs, where a valid subpoena can force the companies hand to subvert connection to the safing servers from a specific IP address?

> That's why the two things are together in that maxim.

I think you missed the joke.

I believe it's the engineering of other aspects (drought tolerance, growth factors, etc) that make them incapable of producing viable seed - not that the only engineering is to make them unable to put out fertile seed.

Perhaps you should take a step down from your horse and regroup then, because you're spreading misinformation in the same breath with which you fight it.

Thank you; your comment sums up my thoughts perfectly.

> "War of the Worlds" aired on radio in America in 1938 and caused mass panic.

https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2013/10/30/241797346...

> "Far fewer people heard the broadcast — and fewer still panicked — than most people believe today. How do we know? The night the program aired, the C.E. Hooper ratings service telephoned 5,000 households for its national ratings survey. 'To what program are you listening?' the service asked respondents. Only 2 percent answered a radio 'play' or 'the Orson Welles program,' or something similar indicating CBS. None said a 'news broadcast,' according to a summary published in Broadcasting. In other words, 98 percent of those surveyed were listening to something else, or nothing at all, on Oct. 30, 1938. This miniscule rating is not surprising. Welles' program was scheduled against one of the most popular national programs at the time — ventriloquist Edgar Bergen's Chase and Sanborn Hour, a comedy-variety show."

> Soon after 9:47 on that morning, the BBC began to receive hundreds of telephone calls from people reporting they had observed the decrease in gravity.[5] One woman who called in even stated that she and eleven friends had been sitting and had been "wafted from their chairs and orbited gently around the room".[7]

I have to wonder what her mind conjured up once it came out as a hoax, as she'd surely told everyone close to her by then.

Then hopefully they don't take it to their nest next to your window.

NASA understands this well and if they feel they need to (considering the current political climate, it's likely) then they will likely start a years-long PR campaign soon to get ahead of it.

I'm sure someone's crunching the numbers on this and other articles shared across social media.

I signed up for LastPass in like 2012 and stopped using it around 2015 or 2016. I had a very strong copy/pasted master password but I still haven't logged in to see what my iterations were at (probably 100).

The attackers can't hurt me if I close my eyes, right?

Spreading ideas on the internet is spreading ideas to other meat sponges. I wouldn't consider most of the mass shooters of the past decade to be anything more than sad edge lords, but they've ended a ton of lives and ruined far more. Most skinheads are in loosely organized groups, not American History X or Sons of Anarchy with massive financial backing and tight-knit organization.

It's likely one or a small group of people that have the exploit. Chances are they aren't spraying it en mass so it only happens unexpectedly to a few people here and there, none of which are security experts. The only source that can give these details are Rockstar, maybe once they figure it out, or now that it's out someone else may figure it out as well.

I believe it's likely real, and we'll see more details soon enough.

> These tiny invertebrates can be found in the deepest ocean trenches and the highest alpine lakes, even in damp mosses and wet leaf litter. Walter once got a call from an Orthodox Jewish organization wanting to know if there were pieces of non-kosher creatures floating in the New York City tap water. The answer was yes. It’s hard to avoid these relatives of shrimp and lobster—Walter has studied them all over the world, in the Red Sea as well as Antarctica. Wherever there’s water, copepods thrive.

I'm wondering how this was handled in the end. Do Orthodox Jews drink the tap in NYC today?

I suppose they're not mutually exclusive, if the department that reviewed the legal requests from the Twitter Files was told to vet the requests involving prominent politicians and the like extra carefully.

JavaScript used to be disabled by default but too many users were complaining about pages not working. It's not very useful if you're a CFO trying to leak financial documents to a journalist but the website won't work.

Tech-literate people use JavaScript.enabled=false in about:config.

They also know what specific pages on the offending websites they accessed.

I'm wondering if the classified document wasn't about tor, but about the 'implants' aka malware that were leaked in the same set of Snowden documents.

I think as much as tor being broken in some fixable way, they'd like it known even less that the FBI installs malware on the devices of persons of interest who haven't been convicted of anything.

If they truly can't break Tor and they deem the person of interest important enough for "national security" then I don't think anyone who has studied history, American or otherwise, believes that they are going to throw their hands up and say "welp, that's it."

I hope he's ready for a very bumpy ride, as he already failed the first step.

I'd say it's quite likely rub-it-in-your-face intentional.

They should've bought a few more million accounts on Fiverr and updated the yaml file.
