I tried for a long time to find reliable sources for the races and kept hitting a wall. Any sources I did find didn't last or were unreliable. I eventually gave up looking.

I finally bought F1 TV Pro and don't regret it one bit. The stream quality is great and being able to switch cameras whenever I want is a huge feature. The value added features are why I will continue to pay for it.

Yeah. I tried to grab the binaries which are on GitHub of course.

I went to the releases page which links to GitHub. I will clone the repo instead.

Already taken down. I tried to grab a copy but wasn't fast enough.

Lol. I was wondering if that was what you meant. I decided to go with it anyway. Anyway, we are all better off without Twitter.

Gaming by committee. How bad can it be? I guess we'll find out.

Yup. They will use the fact that a user said they pirated a movie as a starting point. If Reddit capitulated and handed over the user info that could be used to hunt for more evidence and possibly connect them to other pirates. It would open a juicy can of worms for these bottom feeders. Good on Reddit for standing up for their users.

This is what I'm thinking. This is just a case of them seeing how far they can take it. Once precedent is set they can start to litigate based on a user merely mentioning that they pirated a movie.

I have a Block News account that I add to every now and then. I haven't used it in a couple years since the indexer I was using shut down. Haven't really looked for a new indexer though.

Scraping Twitter might not be the best option either.

I have been using Real Debrid for years for this. It also integrates nicely into my Kodi set up for watching TV shows and movies.

I am not aware of a single case of this happening, not that I have researched it thoroughly though. OTOH, you don't even need to do research to see the articles involving priests popping up all the time. They doth protest too much, methinks.

Phil Spencer said he had no intention of removing CoD from PS5. He never mentioned what will happen when the PS6 comes out.

That explains why I had to sign in again. I was thinking it was a bug in the Connect app. Good to know it wasn't.

Another +1 for MAM. The interview was pretty easy. If you are already established on some other private trackers then it will be a breeze.

Verstappen has gotten boring. He's a great driver, no doubt, with a great car. It will be interesting to see how many races they can win this year.

The real race excitement is for the other two podium spots. Norris and Piastri both had great races. It would have been nice to see Piastri get that third place finish.

All in all it was an enjoyable race and Verstappen had to work a little for it this time.

Absolutely. Most folks will never have to worry about it. I would bet those using period tracker apps didn't think it was a big deal either.

As a middle aged white CIS male, I am sure I have nothing to worry about. However, people in marginalized communities can't be so confident.

Protecting basic privacy isn't that hard and should be of interest to everyone. Governments and big corps shouldn't know everything about us.

Hello, I am a 49yo tech nerd Linux user on Mastodon. I am this stereotype.

Nobody cares what porn you are into. Probably.

However, women using period trackers were free to do so in the US up into recently. Now that data can be subpoenaed and used to help prosecute if it is believed she may have had an abortion.

You never know when information posted online, or collected otherwise, could be used against you. It's best to seek privacy respecting options whenever possible.
