They are an annoyance, but it is great not to have websites track you if you select them not to.


Everyone doesnt click ok. You can typically use websites if you dont click ok.


I wonder how many websites show a cookie banner and don't change a thing whether you click Accept or anything else.


The last study I saw was about 15% for ways detectable client side (e.g. loading ad tracking scripts before the banner is interacted with or despite negative interaction).

Probably a bit higher when you consider server side tracking and those who make up some not-legally-valid claims of legitimate interests.


Id imagine this uses stronger muscle groups. Think about how much force you can make pushing down with your leg, compared to moving it forward or backwards when you are upright.


I use the same method. Although when reaching into the cover to its corners, I sometimes put my head in too. I stand up like some sort of inverted-duvet covered ghost and give the dog a fright. Then I continue the process again.


The British government have been diverging their water quality regulations from the EU’s since Brexit. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/oct/27/england-...

The joys of the free market.


The Brits thought the world would line up to trade with a free UK based on the fact that they were…the UK???


I think the line was trade will be fine because we'll be like Singapore. Hasn't really played out very well so far.


They wanted to be Singapore while still being UK and keep doing the same. And no , looks like it has not worked out.


It was said that it would not have been discovered had it not been modified half way through its life to spread faster. This led to it spreading beyond the Natanz facility that it targeted.


Its not the money, they are annoyed over the flagrant disregard of their rules over privacy and election meddling.


I had a similar thought. When I saw the monitors, I thought "How are they mounted to the hull? They wouldn't screw them into it...." well, it turns out they did.


Which is a bad idea in any sense. But then, looking at the pictures, I wouldn't dive deeper than a bathtub in that thing, even if I was paid 250k to do so. It looks like a carbon fiber tube with some clued on cameras, lights, propulsion and balast. Which is far, far from being a properly designed and engineered sub. Or boat. Or piece of furniture...
