In the wordle world, this is almost a big enough deal to make an x, formerly known as twitter, burner account and post on the NYT page. Just a little jab in the stomach that other ppl will see

Okay time to show my ignorance lol. Can you offer a resource on what a sandboxed browser is and what kind of tinkering is required??

Would this be an overly complex process for those with only some tinkering experience (e.g., I've got Linux on my laptop and have a general sense of how terminal/tilix works)? I've read the docs but can't get a sense of the complexity

I'm reading Le Carre's "The Spy who came in from the Cold." The protagonist briefly reflects on torture and his own inability to resist it. The antagonist later says something to the effect of, 'We believe you think you've told us everything, but we want to make sure we get what your subconscious isn't telling us.' A creepy thought about the perspective of a torturer. Admittedly, this book was written by an ex-spy in the sixties, and the mindset about torture has shifted. Just found it interesting and maybe relevant
