Off with this chatgpt generated nonsense.

It's gone further here.. we have shops with scanners so you scan the goods as you go around.. in theory speeding up checkout but..

  1. 25% of the time you end up selected for 'random check' so an employee has to come and rescan everything anyway
  2. If there are any 'restricted' items a like painkillers, a different employee has to come over and allow them.

Given the chronic understaffing meaning you're basically in a queue for attention, it frequently takes longer to get through the 'rapid' checkouts than it would if I simply queued up and got someone else to do it. But as far as the supermarket thinks they're winning as they pay fewer people.

The only one I ever found in 2 years of pihole use was cdn.cookielaw.org.. a good percentage of sites won't display with it blocked. Most other stuff is fine.

When I first installed pihole I went overboard with blocklists and broke nearly everything.. don't do that :p

Never seen it at all.. I presume it's only some users currently.

You know which site you're getting it from..check the SSL certificate and that's enough. If an official site got breached it'd be found out pretty quickly.

It's bad practice to stay in a root shell because it's easy to screw up and break something. That's why sudo exists.. you only run something privileged if it absolutely has to.

It's part of Play services, so most phones will get it.

Or a fine of 6% of global revenue, which isn't small.

You have to murder the other participants to claim your free netflix subscription.

It's built into the OS since apple and google agreed common standards for tag detection.

The google compatible tags (which aren't launched yet, possibly because of stuff like this) will be detected by apple devices too.

If you want to experiment with UEFI you don't need systemd-boot either, just create an efi bootable kernel and direct boot it. reFind is still around I think too for graphical boot (although that's mainly used by macs.. apple users like guis :p).

You can use a decimal number as well. It's rare to see that form of URL though.
