A lot of writers apparently have no idea how to write interesting female characters. Some of the pushback from viewers / readers to increasing the number of female characters isn’t about the characters being female, it’s about them being bad characters. Boring, annoying, quippy, etc.

Nobody wants to admit that their movie flopped because it wasn’t very good, so they blame sexism. Or piracy, that one’s always popular.

Depends - would you be okay with it focusing on white history?

It’s not 2024, and the inability to hide things has apparently just made it more blatant when we decide to ignore genocide.

is it always running, looking for barcodes in all the photos you take?

Has Google’s camera app added that yet? If not it’s only a matter of time.

When my phone’s barcode reader app sees a web link, it fetches the page’s title to display next to the actual link. So it is going to that web server and fetching resources by itself. Even though it isn’t actually rendering the page and running javascript, it might be exploitable.

Half of them will print the highest bandwidth regardless of the actual cable’s capabilities so that won’t help.
