Inductor

Unfourtunately, I couldn't find a source stating it would be required. AFAIK it's been assumed that they would use perceptual hashes, since that's what various companies have been suggesting/presenting. Like Apple's NeuralHash, which was reverse engineered. It's also the only somewhat practical solution, since exact matches would be easily be circumvented by changing one pixel or mirroring the image.

Patrick Breyer's page on Chat Control has a lot of general information about the EU's proposal.

Matched using perceptual hash algorithms that have an accuracy between 20% and 40%.

I'm not an expert, but I guess it would depend on the speed of sound in the rod.

It automatically replies when it can read/summarize a site, but that isn't always possible (maybe it has problems with some paywalls).

If you decide to set up an SDR for ADS-B, you might want to consider setting up a WebSDR with something like OpenWebRX. This would let people listen to all the signals in the bandwidth that you set.

If you're interested, receiverbook.de is a list of most WebSDRs.

It might have been the fingerprint sensor. They can be fooled. Mine occasionally thinks the inside of my trouser pocket looks just like my finger.

That looks really cool.

I would also recommend consent-o-matic. It works really well, and has a really simple interface for letting the devs know when it doesn't work.

I'd like to elaborate a bit on why DNS can be used to track you.

Nearly all web traffic is encrypted (https), you can check by looking at the padlock next to the URL in your browser. But DNS requests aren't encrypted by default. This means anyone, most likely your ISP our the admin of your home network, can see what domains you're accessing. That means just google.com, lemmy.world, etc. and not lemmy.world/post/.... This isn't a huge amount of info, but it does tell anyone who's looking approximately what you're doing (googling something, looking at lemmy, etc.).

To fix that there are a few different ways to encrypt DNS requests, the most common of which (afaik) is DNS over HTTPS, which will encrypt DNS requests like any other web request your browser makes. I don't know why this hasn't been made the default yet. Firefox has a setting for DNS over HTTPS, it calls it secure DNS.

Have you tried using an automatic CAPTCHA solver (e.g. Buster)?

Amateur radio/ham radio. There are a few ham radio communities on lemmy, but they're all fairly inactive. I occasionally check on some groups on matrix as well.

The next few years are looking quite exciting for ham radio, because we're reaching the peak of the 11 year solar cycle. This gives us amazing conditions for long range communication.

Yes, but it looks like it's been inactive for a while:
