Sounds like money laundering was going on.

It's ok if you call then medicines instead of drugs. Otherwise maybe ok anyway.

Seems to be about the factoid that the human body has 100,000 km of blood vessels. That is bogus but predates the Internet.

If I got an older Pixel I'd run Graphene so np. Right now I'm satisfied with my Moto G. I'll wait to see what happens with NTN (satellite) messaging in Android 15 since that's the most interesting feature that my current phone didn't have.

Aha, OP might have included that in the article excerpt:

The data initially came from decades of warranty cards filled out by customers and returned to gun manufacturers for rebates and repair or replacement programs. A ProPublica review of dozens of warranty cards from the 1970s through today found that some promised customers their information would be kept strictly confidential. Others said some information could be shared with third parties for marketing and sales. None of the cards informed buyers their details would be used by lobbyists and consultants to win elections.

If the retailers are leaking the info, they should be mentioned too, of course.

Why did the gun manufacturers get the owners' names? Usually the manufacturers sell to dealers and the dealers sell to users, I had thought.

I'm too tired to read that carefully right now, but it looks interesting, and calls Gelsinger out on some dumb stuff. I had thought that he had simply taken on a messed up company and done the best he could, spouting some BS here and there as required. Oh well.

Ah oh well. Maybe it's possible to use a USB-C pen drive if you don't mind a contraption hanging off the port. It could be useful some of the time. Other than Graphene I don't understand what is so great about Pixels anyway. Maybe this is about the last chance to get a phone that's not loaded with AI crap though.

IDK what Arkenfox is but I'm also noticing problems, hmm. Does duckduckgo.com work for you? Did your reboot help?

[–] solrize 6 points 3 months ago

I guess we will find out, maybe.
