Or they could use a modern tool like Anubis. Captchas are a very outdated method of bot detection atp

I’m confused - it’s the only non-semantic standard html container. Ofc it’s bad if you’re trying to communicate intent, but if it’s just for minor layout tweaks, anything else would mess with the document structure. Find me one sufficiently complex website that doesn’t use divs lol

Even that is pretty easy nowadays with modern CSS:

<div> <svg /> Text </div>

div {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;

    /* If the SVG needs an offset */
    & svg {
        --offset: ...px, ...px;
        transform: translate(var(--offset));
    }
}

If you want the image to show up, you need an exclamation mark:

Wtf

Using AI for everything rather than learning stops working entirely once you hit upper level courses - I can assure you most people who do this beyond sophomore year will not obtain a degree, especially at any research-oriented institution

On top of everything already mentioned, I’m sure them generating their in-game assets with AI probably doesn’t help either

Apparently malware, according to uBlock

Well I learned something new today - thanks for pointing that out, honestly it makes a lot of sense. Sorry for the misinformation

I’m a bit confused by your question…GPS definitely requires communication between your phone and a satellite (i.e. can’t track you if your GPS unit is off - maybe you’re thinking of satellite imaging?). EDIT: This is actually incorrect, see comments below

With wifi calling, yes, data is being sent to the carrier, but not via a signal that can be triangulated, so the most accurate location data they can gather is your IP address, which a VPN can easily hide.

Or do you mean in terms of generalized location tracking? In which case yes, highly accurate location data is shared by your phone with your carrier by default, just by way of how cellular networks function; no GPS required.

I’m well aware of this, the reason I bring up GOS is because it fully disables your phone’s radios when you turn them off, meaning cell tower triangulation and GPS do not work at all unless explicitly enabled.

This as opposed to a typical phone, which leaves GPS on even when location is off and pings towers periodically even when service is inactive.

I personally leave my phone in airplane mode with location/camera/microphone disabled at all times unless I explicitly need them. I use wifi calling so I can still use it as a typical phone and per-connection MAC address randomization (+ a VPN on public wifi) so my device isn’t easy to track via IP.

GOS is great for this because I can be reasonably assured that apps are not bypassing my permission settings without my knowledge and consent. (That and I can de-google which in and of itself goes a long way in decreasing trackability)

Every day I am increasingly glad I switched to GrapheneOS

And capitalism…doesn’t?

Our cat would jump up and hang from the doorknob by both of his front paws and then wiggle back and forth until it opened. Our other cat at the time could never figure it out lol

I had a cat as a kid that could turn doorknobs - my parents would send him to the basement at night because he had a bad habit of trying to mark furniture as his territory, and we had to start locking the door because he figured out how to open it

This thing looks like if Kirby had an EV copy ability

A corrupt doctor did horrible things to vulnerable child patients (e.g. dangerous colonoscopies without proper consent) in order to make a B.S. article claiming the MMR vaccine causes autism, all to help a friend sell an alternative—separate Mumps, Measles, and Rubella vaccines—and make a shitload of money. It backfired, he lost his medical license and accidentally convinced half the U.S. that all vaccines are evil.

For real - before all this vibe coding nonsense it was actually a really good web IDE. I used to use it regularly back when my school forced me to use a Chromebook and it was great.

Came back to it the other day and they had locked all my projects behind a paywall and the entire IDE had been replaced by a chatbot. I couldn’t delete my account fast enough.
