Hope the mystery signed brick will go in along with your own plaque to future humans.

Am tired, but bit confused at sequence of events.
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users the banned extensions?
Or…
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering some undefined type of extension, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users any which seemed to fall under the ban under an abundance of caution until they could assess each & reinstate those which did not fit the ban?
Or, more worryingly, but maybe implied by the supposed temporary intent of the ban…
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla temporarily removed for Russian users the extensions in order to give Russia the ability to track or otherwise meddle with Russian users of those extensions… or to enable Russia to interfere with the extensions’ code for their own ends?
I feel I can make a reasonable guess, but there’s a fairly big safety issue here depending on what happened.
Anyone dissenting within an authoritarian regime knows to exercise extreme caution, but always good to put out reminders to have multiple layers of protection, so if one fails you are still ok.
If they’re incidental to some other thing you are filming, probably ok but consider blurring their faces prior to publication.
If filming as evidence, consider not uploading or sharing unless you have exhausted other avenues of getting that evidence to the relevant people.
True, though curiously if you appear with a big camera people respond far better than to a phone camera, despite the familiarity of the latter.
You could try NextDNS. It won’t let you designate access per app, but you can create custom blocklists. Short-term logging makes it easy to see at a glance which domains are being requested, and it doesn’t take long to get it all set up so that your apps only contact stuff which is strictly necessary in your view. Also comes with many blocklists to choose from, as well as other useful settings.
Because when your incredibly distressed child needs an explanation for the horrors they just saw on their screen, you suddenly feel more willing to accept a much higher level of dire conditions to shield your child from experiencing war.
Beautiful.
Some archaeologist is going to find this one day. Be fun to include a plaque with a message for them (and for anyone who uses it after you).
Because psyop.
Which isn’t to say that there aren’t genuine participants; only that it is notable that XR, JustStopOil, InsulateBritain, et al all materialised at the same time, seemingly from nothing, with expensive publicity campaigns, and performing actions guaranteed to be alienating at best.
As it is true that very little of settlements or awards like this will be paid out to affected users, I’d like to see legislation amended so that a large percentage of the sum has to be used for major privacy education campaigns, pushed online & through every other media, created and overseen by robust privacy organisations.
In a case like this, I’d want to compel Google to target users of Incognito Mode with privacy education material - again created & overseen by privacy orgs.
Last thing Google wants is to be compelled to show slick, unskippable privacy education clips on every Youtube video.
It probably does, but users would have to click through to an information page. Mostly people seemed to be using it based on misinformed recommendations from others.
Also got the impression that most believed the sites they were using via Incognito mode could not recognise them unless they logged in. Similar features on other browsers had similarly misleading names.
“session mode” might be a less misleading term, but it isn’t nearly so snappy.
Having intermittent difficulties loading various things from different phone browsers for the past hour. More so on Firefox.
Have yet to try desktop browsers.
Great news, and looks like some EU institutions and Germany are gearing up to do similar, which should encourage other countries & organisations to follow, and massively expand open source development.
Outside of the US, soccer fixtures are the biggest sporting events (certainly in Europe & Russia).
Due to a long history of violent football hooliganism, there is already elevated security around these events & international intelligence coordination preceding them.
Additionally, it is usually very difficult to obtain tickets unless you have connections to a club.
These factors would make them trickier targets than lesser sporting events or concerts.
Differences in transport access to sporting stadia & theatres in different countries may also play a role. Terrorists naturally take logistics into account.
And maybe the US just picks up more chatter about sporting events & not much about theatres?
But yeah, broadly either type of target is possible anywhere.
Given that the purpose of the EU was to dramatically reduce the conflicts that plagued Europe for thousands of years, culminating in WWII, through ever greater cooperation, the credibility of the project may come into question if Europe is unable to cooperate enough to see off Russian aggression in neighbouring terrain.
Relative to many of the issues which the EU & closely aligned neighbours must agree upon if they are to act, responses to a military threat ought to be easier to arrive at, and yet here we are.
On the other hand, can be useful to have a moderator in a totally different time zone to the rest of the team.
Lack of history seems more relevant, though not as much as a candidate’s personality.
How dystopian.
They’re our structural engineer now, Dave.
Try an image search for “beam connectors” and you should get an idea of the types of things that are available, but a trip to your local builders’ merchant & a chat with the people there may be more fruitful.
To attach wood to an I-beam, you could drill holes in the flanges of the beam, then use bolts. There are also fittings that you can slide posts & beams into, with various ways of securing them to the material they hold. If you’re not using T-shaped fittings, you could bolt fittings together.
Have you considered putting letters written on paper in the post?
Seems unwise to give your child’s early life story to any of these companies, especially when mapped to a network of her relatives and likely including photographs which people may not be as diligent to keep private as you.
Your daughter cannot consent to this, and it is your duty as parents to protect her privacy until she is old enough to decide for herself what to share and where.
