To put it in a way that’s slightly less genteel than the other posters, let me tell you my motto that I live by as someone with multiple mental illnesses:

Mental illness is no excuse for being an asshole.

It says in the article.

Law enforcement use CSS to pinpoint the location of phones often with greater accuracy than other techniques such as cell site location information (CSLI) and without needing to involve the phone company at all. CSS can also log International Mobile Subscriber Identifiers (IMSI numbers) unique to each SIM card, or hardware serial numbers (IMEIs) of all of the mobile devices within a given area. Some CSS may have advanced features allowing law enforcement to intercept communications in some circumstances.

Looks like they aren’t using “IMSI catcher” because it only covers one of the uses of those devices.

Just in case anyone didn’t feel like reading the article, here’s the last (and imo most important) paragraph:

However, without changing the DMCA, we can’t expect to see real, lasting change in this space. Doctorow said as much to me: “What we really need to do is get rid of DMCA 1201, that law that makes it a crime to format shift your media…it’s the same law that stops farmers from fixing their tractors, blocks independent mechanics from fixing your car, stops rivals from setting up alternative app stores for phones and games consoles…this law is a menace!”

Not real, but certainly creative.

can’t imagine you would have many problems on opensuse tumbleweed

What’s your favorite cut of human meat, and who are you looking to murder and eat next?

So… straight hair gets greasier the longer it goes without being washed, right? There lots of reasons for that, a few being brushing, combing, running your fingers through it, or just the oil running down it. Well, the curlier your hair is, the harder those things are to do. In fact, oil often won’t run down the strands at all on very curly hair, so you’ll be left with an oily scalp and increasingly dry hair. Shampoo is inherently oil stripping, and if you put it on curly hair that’s already lacks oil, you’ll just make it even more frizzy and awful. Hence, a lot of people with curly hair forego shampoo.

shhhhhh don’t give them more ideas

I use Firefox and I literally am a woke vegan.

Dammit, I lost the game.

I’m like 80% sure this person is a troll.

Surprised nobody mentioned “motherlode”.

Something like 50k simoleons in The Sims 2. Absolutely essential to any save file.

I like saying “we’ll burn that bridge when we come to it”.

Most people don’t catch it.

This is why I switched to using Migadu as my email provider with my own URL. They make no qualms about saying email is inherently insecure, but they’re cheap, have great customer service, and they’re independent.

I think Eternity requires an instance to be running v19 of Lemmy, and Beehaw stopped at 18.x, so that’s why it doesn’t work.

So in my limited experience, you just had to submit continuing eligibility reports that were due every June IIRC. I was actually on Kaiser myself, and your provider doesn’t change unless you change it.

I was on it for financial reasons for a while pre-COVID, so my memory is fuzzy and it may have changed. I could look through the DHCS website to confirm, but hopefully this helps.

EDIT: Here’s the official website, which isn’t necessarily detailed yet seems to confirm what I said. They generally try to make it easy to stay on Medi-Cal if you need it. Also, here’s a page linking to a bunch of general Medi-Cal info. I know that it can be daunting navigating the government websites, but they’re generally the best places to find information.

New HeliBoard release just came out yesterday, so no, development has not stopped.
