I've always been of the opinion that a person's go-to insult shows more about themselves than anything else. Like how the people who shout the loudest about gays tend to be closet homosexuals, etc. Same with pedophiles. And Elon is very quick to call someone a pedophile. His whole family is weird and messed up — his father groomed his stepdaughter (Elon's stepsister) that he raised since she was 4 years old, and they have several kids together — so it wouldn't surprise me if Elon is himself a pedophile.

You're thinking of the gyroscope, but no. Some phones have a dedicated proximity sensor for things like detecting if you're in a call and have the phone up to your ear, but more and more phones (especially the budget ones) these days use a "virtual" proximity sensor which utilizes the front camera to perform the same function.

Some major spoilers below! Since there's no markup for spoiler text yet, here's a gap to indicate spoilers. If you haven't seen the movie yet, skip this comment.

::: spoiler spoiler
Loved the movie, but found that the ending was the weakest part. I don't mind the resolution we got, it's just how we got that resolution that has some parts missing. How did the people suddenly go from fearing her to calling her a hero? Sure, she saved the city from getting blown up, but one act alone doesn't easily undo a thousand years of prejudice. After all, it doesn't seem like anyone knows the truth about what happened between Nimona and Gloreth. How did they clear Nimona's name of the Director's accusation? Who runs the kingdom now? Why didn't that dudebro knight get his face punched in? The ending was fine, but they glossed over a lot of parts that would have made the ending make more sense.

Edit: Well, looks like the Lemmy spoiler code doesn't work on Kbin.

If you think that's nice, try it with the Kbin Usability Pack userscript. You'll need the Tampermonkey extension to use it, so you'll have to get Fennec (a fork of Firefox mobile) on F-Droid to use it. A bit of a hassle, but well worth it. I pair it with the Kbin Enhancement Script.

And that, Musky, is why sites generally provide an API and don't lock it behind prohibitive pricing. Because the alternative is to scrape your site, and that's more resource intensive for the site in question.
