Having a digital license plate connected to some API for this would be legendary, although likely very illegal

Yep, I accidentally opened a news article when the news panel slid out without my knowledge, then I realised all my tabs, bookmarks, passwords, everything, was imported from chrome to edge. No consent, no nothing, it wasn’t even the first time I opened edge, it was just that this time it involved my data. Safe to say I reported it to the ACCC (Australian competition and consumer commission) and did as much as I could to erase my data from edge and stop edge from opening as easily.

Shit I should do that too, I already reported it (ACCC), I don’t think a second time is worth it.

FTFY

And without your knowledge, it copies all data from your actual browser.

Yeah I’ve had this same issue on my ThinkPad 11e I recently retired, especially when tinkering with gnome extensions, it was a pain trying to get the window to fit even half of its content, and all the stuff I needed, the bottom panel which had category selectors, was completely out of reach.

YES

After hearing about this proposal for three months now, I still believe it’s fucked up, especially the fact they don’t even know what method they’ll use, whether it’s digital IDs (which will take likely at least a decade to become mainstream), facial scanning (authoritarian as fuck), or some other shitty proposal.

There’s also the fact as a child I wasn’t able to go out very much, so social media was useful to me, especially to give me time with friends digitally, and as a time burner, which can be detrimental for a child in a similar place to have it all banned.

In all ways this happens, this will either be extremely authoritarian or would not be necessary as all people set their birth dates to their exact one every time without any variation, like magic, as if that shit would ever happen.

Shutdown aside, I find it funny how discord users start with genuine sad emojis, and then POW, eggplant emoji!

Exactly, some games are just too damn beautiful

Ngl these would go nicely as wallpapers

Never thought I’d find this many fellow melbournians on Lemmy!

'bout tree fiddy

Sorry about that, I found it somewhere else without credit and completely forgot the art style was from XKCD.

I’ll add it to the post.

This shit made me yawn

If I’m not mistaken, many smart TVs tend to take multiple screenshots per second and send it back to base with other methods if wifi or ethernet aren’t available, although I gotta research a little more on that.

So even then, don’t connect it to a PC, you’re just waiving your privacy rights

I’d say if you want to be thanked a lot per day, being a driver is for you, although I’d rather drive the public buses than the monstrosity of a school bus

Literally my school bus, there’s like 50 students inside at any given time, more than half of them blast tiktoks, shorts, reels or other bullshit, the rest are either yelling and acting macho, or really wanna gtfo of that bus.
