So much of the Verge is paywalled these days it's completely understandable for someone not to bother clicking through.

Comparing my whitelist to the suggestions I've found online, I can only come up with api2.branch.io, saa.paramountplus.com and tags.tiqcdn.com; I might have also deleted something from the blacklist. There's a few Paramount+ whitelists, like this one, that you could look at if none of those work.

When the app wouldn't save my watch history, I eventually found that I needed to unblock a domain in pi-hole to make it work. Are you using anything like that?

Just to be clear, the FDA has only reversed its refusal to review the vaccine for approval; it hasn't been approved:

In an announcement Wednesday morning, Moderna said the FDA has now agreed to review its vaccine after the company held a formal (Type A) meeting with the FDA and proposed a change to the regulatory pathways used in the application.

The pictures are from different throws. Here the person is wearing long sleeves, and the person in the "gotcha" picture is wearing short sleeves.

Since the summary doesn't say which three popular password managers:

As one of the most popular alternatives to Apple and Google's own password managers, which together dominate the market, the researchers found Bitwarden was most susceptible to attacks, with 12 working against the open-source product. Seven distinct attacks worked against LastPass, and six succeeded in Dashlane.

Benj Edwards, one of the authors of the offending article, has posted an explanation, taking the blame and clearing his co-author.

Benj Edwards handles most of their AI coverage. I wouldn't take his use of AI as a sign of what the rest of the staff is doing.

Benj Edwards, the author responsible, has posted his side.

Good news (from December):

“Absolutely,” [Bryan] Fuller told The Mary Sue recently about wanting to revisit Pushing Daisies. “We have a season three pitch, and the entire cast wants to come back, and we’re hoping we get to return to them. We just have to find somebody who wants to make it.”

Ars Technica has published a retraction

edit: Benj Edwards, the author responsible, has posted his side. tl;dr: He was sick and he messed up, and he asked for the article to be pulled because he was too sick to fix it right away.

The Palantir connection isn't the only bad bit here:

Sure enough, Discord's support article describing its age verification process now features a disclaimer informing UK users that they "may be part of an experiment where your information will be processed by an age-assurance vendor, Persona." And while Discord had previously insisted that facial age verification recordings would only be stored and processed locally, the notice about Persona says that "the information you submit will be temporarily stored for up to 7 days, then deleted."

They tried so hard to convince people the verification would be safe, and they're already experimenting with making it less safe.
