Same, or use the fingerprint reader.

Potentially. They are denying it's true, and I don't think any more evidence has come out besides this one claim.

I pretty much always use a VPN these days because I hate Comcast and don't like them seeing my traffic. I like nextDNS because it gives me centralized management and filtering of DNS for all my devices, it's definitely worth the $20 a year. I forgot to mention I also have the extensions CanvasBlocker, WebRTC Blocker, and LocalCDN but I think it is likely just ublock origin (and nextDNS filtering) that got my score to 96%.

96% using Android Firefox Beta with ublock, nextdns, and a VPN.

I became a paying subscriber for kagi today. The way I justify the cost is it's saved me time digging up technical information at work and that increase in efficiency is worth money to me. Also, I hate ads and SEO crap, and $5 isn't really that much these days. I'm trying to reduce my reliance on Google so it's nice having an actual superior search experience, even if I have to spend a little money for it.

I'm still on my trial period but I think I'm going to pay when it runs out, I've been really happy with it so far. I think it's saved me a good chunk of time at work I would have wasted digging through Google SEO crap so it feels like it's worth spending a few bucks on.

I don't use an e-reader currently but I want a Boox Palma. It's nice and small, and runs Android so you can install whatever. I'm waiting for reviews to come out before I buy but it looks like it should be a great device.

Can you share your argument with Stross? I've always enjoyed his writing.

Poker Face and Mrs. Davis are both good but that's all that comes to mind for me.

I actually just login to all of my different accounts regularly to keep track of things. Nearly all spending flows out of two cards so mostly I watch them and just compare to actual cash on hand to maintain a certain balance. Anything excess gets periodically transferred into investment accounts. I've never really felt the need for tracking beyond this, I tried Mint for awhile once but I think my needs are just really simple. I know roughly how much money is where at all times and I can get the exact details within a few second if I have a phone or computer, that's good enough for me.
