Most modern operating systems randomize the MAC.

that doesn't seem to be uniform behaviour. but i think we agree on the merit. if you are this paranoid, you just don't use networks where you don't have control over the local segment.

Your router always knows your Mac address, no matter how you got your ip assigned. And yes, you can use it to identify the client - that is why it is there. This whole post is nonsense written by someone who doesn't really understand what dhcp is or how it works. Long story short, don't look for privacy on local Ethernet segment :D

but unless i am missing some edge case, there isn't really a reason, downloading video from youtube is perfectly legal, it wouldn't work otherwise after all

oh, attention required? i am happy to know that... 😂

he is under no obligation to have a name at hand. that is what primaries are for. not having a name at hand doesn't make biden best possible candidate, or even passable one.

Ah, there it is.

fuck off (you are on my blocklist now, don't bother crafting elaborate answer designed to just piss me off)

someone else pointed out in other comment that he is 62, i guess that is a moment where you might want to reevaluate how you spend your remaining time. it is a shame he had to do it, but good luck to him.

Now I know one might be inclined to split him top and bottom but I posit we do left and right.

so how about a compromise and splitting him in 8 parts along all three axes?

you mean to start the experiment by cutting him in half? i am in 😆

there is 333 milion people in the us. roughly 1/4 of them is of sufficient age and pro-democracy. one of them has to be able to put together coherent sentence.

because what democrats consider bug, republicans consider feature.

stop with this whataboutism. trump being piece of shit doesn't make biden good.

you still can...

it is worth noting that density is not the only factor. wet sand or mud will also have high density (not as high as earth, but still), but your ability to crush it will be drastically different.

can you use tools in that scenario? do you have fix point available? can you take another planet and smash them together until one of them breaks? 😆

He is 62 now and his wish to spend more time as a private person with the people important to him is a valid one.

okm now it makes little more sense. well, good luck to him.

he literally did accepted it when he stepped down. that is what accepting "it" means in this case. it is the difference between words and actions.

and again, i understand if he is scared for his family or something and it is terrible, i am merely speaking to the logic of his statement.

if he said "it is with deep sorrow that i must now, in face of political terrorism, step down to protect my family" - that would be powerful message. saying "we don't accept it" when you are clearly accepting it just does not make sense.

We cannot simply accept this.

unfortunately by deciding "to spend more time with his family" he is doing exactly that. i understand it is not easy situation for him, but the rhetoric does not make sense.

i haven't yet read the article, but i hope that you don't think that argument looks like "lets accuse everyone who sees a problem in biden of supporting the other side, without having any evidence about it".

i hope you are not going to whine much after this negative reaction.

yeah, nobody knows. but (un)fortunately "he isn't able to put together coherent sentence, but maybe he isn't going to die tomorrow" is not qualification for presidential office.
