Did you try drinking more water?

Pretty sure they collect it regardless of you disagreeing or not. Block all cookies by default always unless you are on a site where you need to log in.

The requirements are generally things that were designed away on purpose from Wayland. Even if KDE plasma had a workaround solution, they would need to communicate with all other distros to make sure all distros have similar solutions so accessibility feature devs don't have to make a version of their application for every distro, and KDE Devs themselves have said that they "don't want to allow users to shoot themselves in the foot by letting the application bypass security features" as if application A knowing the coordinates of a window in application B has any security implication whatsoever.

Wayland is fundamentally designed without accessibility in mind at all, and will virtually never work with it. The current status is still after 17 years "tough shit" and that infuriates me.

Can't even launch docker containers because auth.docker.io is down too.

Makes sense considering sanseito wants to bring back imperialism. As a foreigner living in Japan, their presence makes me uneasy not only for myself but my half-Japanese son whom they want to take away voting rights for.

I am not saying she did it. She was accused of doing it, and after that during an early stage in the lawsuit process, she agreed with h3 lawyers to request reddit to disclose information in order to subpoena the reddit mods that did it. Which is what OPs article states Reddit lawyers have pushed back against.

I haven't watched h3 since before he started his podcast, so I am not a fan. That doesn't mean his lawsuit is frivolous. The mods are 100% in the wrong.

The lawsuit is about the copyright infringement, not the CPS call. The mods organized for users to perform copyright infringement. The CPS calls are just a side thing as a "also, these people are horrible".

Also, the ones trying to throw it out are the Reddit lawyers, not Demin's lawyers. Reddit is defending Reddit. Also, there being no proof is a lie. Unless Reddit deleted the data entirely, which would be illegal, there definitely is a deleted thread on Reddit where mods urged people to commit copyright infringement, because I personally saw it.

Legal mindset goes through the court documents in this video explaining how Denims did in fact agree to h3's request to obtain the mods' personal identifying information so that they can go after them instead of her.

When you buy new dogs, you can expect there to be shit everywhere, especially if they get sick, CPS is not something you call knowing the full context. The CPS calls were definitely out of hate, not concern, and the calls themselves aren't even the issue. The mods urging people to call, however, is targeted harassment.

The lawsuit has a legitimate basis, and if it truly was a frivolous lawsuit, denims et al. would have filed a motion to dismiss, which they didn't.
