That's not what people mean by 'bypassing', turning it off is obviously easy. The point is that activating the microphone while the lid is closed is pretty much impossible.

Doing the same on Kagi and DuckDuckGo worked though. Both search engines can filter by time and find articles from the 2021 incident.

Can you search for Ceuta and find some articles from 2021? There was a similar incident to the current one in 2021, but searching for it seems to be impossible for me.

Because of the recent Ceuta incident I wanted to find some old articles, since I remembered a similar incident happened in 2021. I set the range to that year, but nothing happened, only articles from the last week turned up.

Setting a time frame was one of my favorite and most used features of Google Search.

Is it really that hard to believe people don't want to support a state that has brutally occupied half of Europe for 50 years and is right now murdering Ukrainians every day?

Russia is waging a hybrid war against Europe (and the West in general), there's no way I'd give one of their biggest tech companies even a cent.

I'm pretty sure Trump threatening to invade Greenland/Denmark played a part in the decision to not invest in the company.

Yes, anyone that threatens to invade a NATO ally is insane or stupid.

>I saw a television advert the other day that specifically called out Millennials and how, yes, you can book a vacation from your phone and you're going to be okay, dad.

I wonder when dynamic pricing will switch from booking on phones being more expensive because you're most likely in a hurry to booking on desktop being more expensive because you're old and have more money to spend. Did that already happen?

That's already the case for the German Id, you need a PIN to do anything online with it.

A hint would be that none of the mentioned munitions, MK-84, BLU-109, and GBU-39, are thermobaric. They're conventional HE or penetrator munitions.

There are probably thousands of scifi books where the moon has some forms of helium 3 mining. Considering Google pirated and used them all for training it makes sense that it puts it in present tense.

Important to note that the last buyback was in June 2021.

They need subsidies because the US and Europe can't afford to have all leading edge chips manufactured in Taiwan and South Korea.

Computer Bild Spiele #3 from 2004? Because that's where I got my copy.

Blackrock doesn't 'own' Tesla, or any company really. They hold and manage stocks for their customers. If you own an iShares ETF or mutual fund, you own the companies, not Blackrock.
