And I'll say it again, the 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 year old girls that you guys were referring to, they knew exactly what they were doing. Chances are they weren't 13. But if they were - they weren't - but if they were, they knew exactly what they were doing. Just like you did everything that you did when you were 15 years old. Underneath the bleachers, at somebody else's house, skipping school in a car. All of those items that you were doing, they're doing the same thing. Don't try to make them victims. Now unless somebody pulled up in a white van with no windows, and threw them in the van with a fucking pillow case over their head, they weren't victims, okay? They went knowing what they were what they were doing. They wanted [rubs fingers], they wanted money. Did they get it? Well then, transaction complete.

Just check the box, move on.

We asked for it to be on by default and have a "don't ask me again" checkbox. That's what we got.

That sucks. From the article it looks like they are at least writing the firmware, but it's hard to tell.

I'm curious because I just ordered a couple of C210s to tinker with.

Is that true for TP-link? I always thought they were an OEM.

Geneviève Grégoire, a spokesperson for Metro, said it was important to remember that theft, for any reason, is unacceptable and constitutes a criminal act.

Thanks Javert err.. Geneviève.

Interesting breakdown. I really don't know enough to say what should be done but I remember thinking the cuts would not be any kind of improvement. It's interesting to see it with specific revenue numbers in the real world.

Regulators were less friendly back then

They can do a lot of that now with Recall even if you use Chrome.

They also want you to use their browser because they want to direct you to bing/copilot and get ad revenue from all of your clicks.

They wanted to do that with internet explorer but regulators weren't monopoly-friendly back then.

 

As opposed to "It tastes awful. And it works."

I saw an ad for it tonight and the "And" completely threw me. I could have sworn it was always "but"...

Linda Royle says airline initially wouldn't compensate because she can't prove ownership of missing items

Excerpt:

When Linda Royle opened up her returned carry-on suitcase, she was disgusted to find not only her personal possessions missing, but several items — like two toiletry bags, a ticket scanner and a knife — were now in her bag.

Air Canada initially refused to compensate the Newfoundland woman, but told CBC News in a statement Thursday that it had looked at her case again and would contact Royle to "finalize her claim."

In an email, which CBC News has reviewed, Royle was told by baggage claims representative Dana Esteban on July 5 that because Royle didn't have receipts for the items she claimed were missing, Esteban couldn't confirm she owned the items.

CBC News asked Air Canada for an interview about Royle's case. An unidentified spokesperson replied to that request, asking for more details.

Two days after the CBC News request, Royle was contacted by a company representative who said her case had been further reviewed.

In a statement to CBC News on Thursday, Air Canada said it requires customers to provide claims, through receipts, for items valued above $350.

"Our baggage claims team re-looked at this case and found that the individual items being claimed were under the threshold," it said.

The spokesperson then told CBC News over email its security team is reviewing Royle's case.

In my feed, when I see posts like https://lemmy.world/post/30432101 that are embedded image links (maybe?), when I click on the thumbnail it doesn't work, but clicking on the title to go to the post, it does.

Thumbnail click gives this and doesn't play:

Title click gives this and plays properly:

This has been happening for a little while now (days? weeks?) but I haven't tried narrowing down specifics. I'll update if I find non-i.imgur.com posts with the same issue.

Edit to add: Android, I think Edge is the embedded browser.
