A "mysterious" metal that happened to be used in the making of the same aeroplane DB Cooper was flying on?
Why does it sound like there is nothing to see here?

I expected the robot would be grinding beans, filling the coffee holder, tamping, fitting the holder to a steam machine and pulling an espresso for a certain time.
I could even understand fitting a coffee filter to a holder, dropping ground coffee and dripping hot water until a certain level is reached.
Those things require a lot more decisions than "open machine, drop capsule, close machine, press button".
I rather pay more knowing it goes to an employee salary than pay more and have the money go to these large corporations that try everything to pay drivers less.
If you find out the hostname used you could try contacting the website owner and check with them, bypasing Cloudflare (assuming you could either load the site and use a contact form, or find registrant's information).
Many ISPs are now using CG-NAT so this approach would miscount thousands of visitors seemingly coming from a single IP address.

1. Asking for OTP after using a passkey is redundant and annoying 2. Not listing the keys individually makes management hard - I can't remove a single Yubikey, or Windows Hello or my phone. If anything is replaced it will just keep accumulating in my account. It should list each passkey individually and allow me to give a name to each one.
Their Data Policy (1) says nothing about how they use data you enter. Only says you can enter as much or as little and who can see th data you share.
Big nope.
Looking at the Reddit account they can be ten years old but with no activity at all in the last five or so years, then a sudden wave of these scam posts.
Initially Google used to send US cheques, in USD. So I had to go to the bank to deposit those in my personal account, which required a branch manager to sign it because 1. Who is Google and 2. Why is someone getting a large-ish cheque from a company overseas (AML laws).
Anyway, at some point I've decided to incorporate a company. Trying to explain to my accountant what my company was doing (online publishing), and trying to explain to the bank this was not a money laundering operation required some effort.
People had no idea that one could make money on the Internet.
Advertising for them had to fit in a TV, billboard, radio or cinema square. Anything else was science fiction.
I then left my 17-year full-time as a mainframe developer (yep) to run my company full-time. You can't imagine the run around I had when I tried to find a home loan for our first home a year later - how do you make money? was always the question. It didn't matter that my answer was "I am the owner/director of a company". They wanted to know what my company was doing and just "online publishing" wasn't enough. Even with tax records and everything.
So I empathise with the OP on how to demonstrate skills and experience while being self-employed.
I mean, the premise for The Night Agent (Netflix) was a dedicated line monitored 24/7 just to help agents.
In real life, a downed pilot needs to call 911 and go through all the misunderstandings in that call to access an ambulance and other services.
Shouldn't the pilot have a dedicate number to call in case of an emergency?
People use lots of arguments on why to block ads and not subscribe at the same time.
So far, so good. One day, someone from this person's company registered on our site and posted a couple of spam messages full of keywords and links to this company's domain. Checking the user account, it did have that company's domain email (we validate registration emails), but the IP address was from a country very far away from here. The post was removed, and the account was banned per our rules.
I contacted the General Manager (GM) for that company and sure enough, there was an explanation: they had engaged a local SEO agency, and this agency outsourced some of the SEO work. Unknown to the GM the sub-contractor's link-building approach was "go around spamming comments and forums".
I told the GM that this was an unacceptable practice and that he was wasting money with that agency. Even more so because his domain name was so clear and related to their business that I considered that a waste of money.
His company didn't last long. The SEO agency is still around.
Back when I was in a technical role I used to be rostered on-call every few weeks. That included being on a conference call within five minutes of being paged (yep, oldstyle). This meant planning ahead to be at home at all times that week.
We were paid to be on-call and paid hourly if a call actually came in.
These days I see people saying they're expected to be on call and not being paid more than they're already paid. That's crazy.
It's more like he's trying to save Putin's by saying "the war was not his [Putin's] fault.
I don't use OAuth, except for two services - which I could switch to user/pass if I really wanted.
Based on replies to that tweet I think this is hard to achieve.
