I know nothing but in my head I imagine this feature works by having the phone going into "air tag" mode when powered off. Same battery, low power chip running minimal BLE to broadcast a tracker ID.

Edit: after reading the article, both Apple and Google promise their feature works even with a dead battery, so probably a secondary rechargeable coin cell with the "find my" chip. So basically it's got a built in air tag with a much shorter battery light

Use it as an opportunity to find new music and fill those playlists out with a little more variety

Got a source to back those claims up?

Are those dollar values normalized to the same year?

You going off data or just vibes, because the only thing here that feels questionable at best is your post.

Tools like https://ipleak.net/ provide torrent leak checkers. You need a browser to view the results, but they provide a magnet link you use in your torrent client to assess what information it is giving out.

In theory if everything is set up right it should show exclusively IP/location information associated with your VPN

As part of a websites DNS info they have to provide a TTL (time to live). This value can be just about anything but is often in the 30s to 5m range, and serves as an instruction on how long a client should cache the IP address locally before checking for updates.

This is because IP addresses can change, and you don't want to experience hours of downtime for all clients every time your IP changes.

Every time your client queries your tracker for server updates (every few minutes, give or take, based on tracker preferences) it should follow your system DNS settings, which should involve checking your local cache, then going to the upstream server indicated in your system DNS settings.

If your system is set to a DNS server outside of your local network (e.g., 8.8.8.8) that request should go through your VPN

If your system is set to use a local DNS server (e.g., 192.168.X.X....), typically either done through something like a pi-hole, or if your router sets itself as the DNS server then forwards all requests, this MIGHT create a DNS leak around your VPN.

A good VPN like Mullvad should have an option to force their own DNS settings when enabled to prevent this leak.

Honestly there's so much wonderful art out there not created by Nazis, I don't know that it's worth the energy to pirate Nazi music.

I totally understand the moral pirate argument, I just don't have time to enjoy all of the games, movies, and music from artists I support. To waste what time I have engaging with content from people I find morally repugnant is just not where I'm investing

Sounds like the app worked as intended and she found the mushrooms she was after.

The advantage of Tile and AirTags is that they're relatively dumb devices that leverage passing cell phones to snitch on their location. This means they can last months on a single charge while the phones do the heavy lifting.

There may be more and less private ways to do what they do, but they'll all have similar tradeoffs.

A device that tracks its own location and reports it out over a cell network would basically require all the complexity and size of a smart phone minus the screen and cost similarly

There are Bluetooth trackers that can be run privately and with enough creativity can be used to identify the location of something within the confines of your home (or know if something is not home), but won't be much help if you're trying to track down lost luggage or want to know if you left your wallet at work or the coffee shop.

Mindustry.

Only until a person who is unhoused tries it and they decide to install spikes all the way around.

Also, where do I find the shade?

Clearly you don't understand, both sides did something I don't like, which makes them the same

It's the same Americans who mourned the loss of Queen Elizabeth, some people just like to make celebrities their whole personality for no real reason.

Doom is the only right answer. That soft pink mist as the light catches the spray of blood from your vanquished enemies.

... Some?

Perhaps only because they're being compared against the best girl around

What kind of monster plots a time series vertically?

I once saw a black cat.

The fact that you posted a link to this video from YouTube not peer tube says a lot.

Or, hear me out, just eat more veggies. Much lower risk of disease spread (though yes, as I'm sure others well be eager to point out, they can carry pathogens, would you rather take your chances with a raw carrot or a raw chicken breast)

The browser version at least does not have the ability to take screenshots, but you will always be tracked on the websites you use, especially if their business model is advertising-based
