I use cash almost everywhere I can, and want as much as possible to avoid the pervasive data collection and handover that you endorse.

I don’t agree that “they already know” - and fight such efforts instead of taking them for granted.

The IRS doesn’t know how much you owe. You may choose to file in different ways, have side gigs, spend money on deductible or credit-eligible expenses, or qualify for certain breaks. It’s your choice to depreciate or carry over certain items. Only you know that your spare room was rented for 5 months or the cost basis for the bitcoin you sold.

if you work one job and have no complications like that - the 1040EZ is what you’re asking for. But still not the government’s role to tell you or sign your name to it.

“de facto” literally means that it wasn’t decided.

C# and the .net runtime are open source, So you could presumably just go fish the supporting code out.

That’s the NOAA/NWS term I think (this is apple weather)

Using “All” is the best way to find those. How else are you really supposed to?

Because the consensus definition of “theft” doesn’t include it.

This is why i think subject tagging for communities makes a lot of sense. I want to remove anime, k-pop, video games, sports, region-specific, tv/movie, “anarchy”/“everything sucks” and plenty of other entire categories from my “All” feed, but blocking is a never-ending effort.

passkeys are way for your a token unlocked by your device’s biometric sensor to validate a request. biometric information is not sent to Google

yeah, “the west” is going to invade 🙄
