    Is it possible to make a road ready hovercraft that uses lifting gas like hydrogen? Getting tired of particulate matter from tires, brakes, road wear, etc.

    Really, hashes are sufficiently unique? The objections I saw for this news were along the lines that random images could be manipulated to have hashes that match the flagged cases,…

    Do you mean this would apply to Macs too? So if I used some non-Apple photo app, and uploaded photos from a camera, they would be similarly monitored?

    Yeah, but the people who haven't been vaccinated have made a conscious choice not to. Who are we to get in the way of that?
