Probably a stupid question, but why is it not possible for a browser to ignore cookies from a site where the user chose 'Do Not Track' then that's it, they can't have cookies, can't log in e.t.c alternatively a few white labeled cookies can be agreed upon as a standard e.g just to support maintaining logged in sessions

I record daily spending activity and often add comments against the transactions, e.g if it is a restaurant bill, I will include who was with me and if it was extra-ordinarily good or bad then I will add a comment about that as well.

I developed an app installed on my phone which automatically detects SMSs transaction notifications and uploads them to my online app which is a simple General Ledger with simple and good enough reporting capabilities.

For cash payments (less than 10% of my transactions) the same app allows me to quickly take a picture of whatever I was buying or the receipt and uploads it to the online app for later posting. I even have a Google Cloud Run job which reads email notifications since some of my cards don't have SMSs notifications. I have been doing this since 2015 and it has been one of the greatest decision I have ever made.

So this said crypto whale has caused a buzz in Kenya for sending millions dollars to Kenyan students, the funds are getting frozen by the authorities due to suspicion of money laundering... what I don't understand is why he is not sending the funds in Bitcoins to get around the authorities

Number 12 is quite something, it works with anything you look at after staring the center of the top image. I looked at my food and I could see it moving in a very odd manner, went back to image for 15 seconds and looked at the walls, same effect and repeated the same with other stuff and after 10 minutes I feel motion sickness like the one you get after spinning and losing your balance (not everyone gets this I think)

I would prefer a normal family and friends plus a comfortable $1m networth (am working towards it) over $55m plus not liking everyone in my circles. Money can only go so far, with $1m I can travel the world with my family or friend and share stories and experiences with them, and that is good enough for me..

I wonder why he did not try to return empty responses to confirmed malware sources, to discourage them from using the site.
