I did that five times before remembering I had an old account on this instance that I could switch to to post the question and see what communities I used to be subscribed to.

British man Aditya Verma appears in Spanish court over plane-bomb hoax in c/[email protected]

From the article:

A court in Madrid heard it was assumed the message triggered alarm bells after being picked up via Gatwick's Wi-Fi network.

Public wifi without a VPN is like sex without a condom. The connection may not be encrypted (very risky) and even if it is, you are still susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks: https://www.garlandtechnology.com/blog/how-to-monitor-encrypted-traffic-and-keep-your-network-secure

I guarantee there will be a flood of articles about this over the next few days because of what I quoted above.

It's also possible that one of his "friends" reported him or something like that.

In general I agree, but there's no privacy on airport Wi-Fi. And very little at an airport in general.

Anyone else dislike the comment-collapsing behaviour? (sh.itjust.works)

I know this behavior was requested, but the tap to collapse and long press to hide buttons are both really annoying to me.

If there's a link in the comment and you miss your tap, you end up collapsing the comment. Then it takes three (or 6, or 9) clicks to click a link. This is particularly common at small fonts. The old behaviour of collapsing when hitting the comment header was sufficient, and still too much IMO.
I usually use long press to highlight text and copy it. Maybe to bring up a menu. Having it hide a menu (the buttons) is just weird and disconcerting

Again, I know this was requested, so I tried to give it a chance, but I really dislike it, so I wanted to see how others felt. I'm recently coming from RIF btw.

What have you imagined as an epic design for a bot? (sh.itjust.works)

I feel like a design has to evolve to survive at the different levels, but have you thought of a design that you think would stand out in the pros? Weapon design, wheel design, armor, go wild!
