The age verification process is performed by Persona, a third-party provider that won’t have access to users’ Reddit data or retain photos for longer than seven days. Reddit says it also won’t have access to uploaded photos, and that it will only store birthdates and verification statuses so that users don’t need to re-verify their account.

Uh huh. You’d be surprised how many people still think once a snap on Snapchat is deleted, it’s gone forever and no one can view it again. Wonder how long it will take before the “oops a data leak revealed all the stuff we said we weren’t going to retain wasn’t properly deleted and now anyone with a magnet link can grab it” event happens.

I understand the convenience, but I don’t like it. All my data is on someone else’s computer, and I have to enable activity trackers for the privilege of accessing my data? Heck nah.

getting TV remotes to work over HDMI CEC is still untested

Ah, bummer, but I’m glad a project like this exists and is getting some new life breathed into it. Can’t say I’m a huge fan of the toolbar at the top but I’m sure ricing will be fun on a platform like this.

I must be living under a rock because this is the first I’ve heard of USB 4. Is it just a speed bump or does it affect the type of data that can be transferred? In my experience I’ve had issues using a usb 2.0 flash drive to use a live image of a Linux iso in a 3.1 port

Don’t commit near a black hole, apparently
