There are a few (difficult, but possible) ways to get extra copies despite the limit though, like changing your name

Please don't give your SSN to health care institutions, they don't need it. They like to ask for it on their intake forms so that they can find you more easily if they need to send your debt to collections, but most will accept a blank entry anyways.

No, you don't need to carry it around. Memorizing it and keeping it safe for the few occasions you do need the card itself is fine.

Each table contains one column with the patches and one column without the patches - the hardware is unchanged. The different tables are to measure the impact of the patches across different hardware.

Note that Mullvad no longer allows port forwarding, which can make it harder to torrent effectively

The vast majority of Google's revenue comes from advertising, which will remain relevant even if search more or less dies. They put ads in almost every other one of their products, not to mention the ad space they buy and then resell on other sites.

I'm just glad pixels have finally been coming around on more updates. I was forced to replace my Pixel 3 if I wanted to use it with the BYOD program at work because it had reached the end of the update cycle, even though it was in fine condition and still met my needs. Now I'm on a Pixel 7, and hopefully I can get the full five years of use from it.

The NLRB ruled that the nature of their work makes them employees of both Cognizant and Google, despite whatever those companies try to classify them as, and that both are required to negotiate with the union. Google is now just flat-out refusing to respect that decision.
