Usually titanium, but yeah sometimes medical stainless steel. Both are non-ferromagnetic, especially titanium. These balls look like they could well be normal steel or any other metal. Also, implants - unlike these metal balls - are usually screwed firmly into your bones. So yeah, implants should be mostly fine on MRI. Loose balls of dubious metal? Wouldn’t advise it. Keep in mind MRIs are literally powerful enough that metals in tattoo ink can even be an issue - which the article you linked mentions itself.

In general, metallic orthopedic implants are not affected by MRI.

This isn’t an implant though. Massive difference.

Or the twist erase

Yeah but with mechanical pencils you can buy one and have it for years, only just buying the occasional pack of leads… Saves the trees ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I have two twist-erase 3’s and I’ve never looked back. I love them so much.

*Blimey

Why do I need to sell my data? Cant I just have ads?

I’d be surprised if it was just the business department…

Yeah it would. But as I said elsewhere, this is probably enough to be ‘too much effort’ for the majority of users, and definitely a lot more effort than it should be. I already know several people who habitually click accept all on cookie banners, and I know I have caught myself doing that a couple times too…

Hm… Was gonna try Arkenfox one of these days tbh.

There’s gotta be a company address somewhere haha

Hey, my phone has 12Gb of RAM for a reason, and bookmarks are scawy…

Hm yeah perhaps. I clicked away too fast to try it 😅

Well, the fact that when there are ads, there’s always like 20 of them is another issue… But yeah, I don’t even care about ads but as I see it I should have a right to privacy without having to pay for it.

True, but shouldn’t I be able to use it if I want to without having to choose between paying money or being spied on?

The content of a website isn’t an extension of your property.

No, but it is my property which is to be used to store files that this company has put there, just so they can track me across the web to sell me more crappy shit I do not need.

So exactly how should content (regardless of how trashy it is) be funded?

With ads, but either be good and use ads that arent spyware, or let me choose to opt out of the tracky ones and use general ads instead.

Meanwhile, not visiting websites that don’t meet your vision for how funding content should be done seems like a perfectly simple and reasonable approach to have for this problem.

Yup, hence why I noped outta there as soon as I saw that popup cause fuuuck that…

Yeah exactly!

Ooh you can share settings like this? Whoa…

Yeah… That’s what I fear is that once one has started doing it, others will follow.

I mean, I’m not opposed to all cookies. Ones that I actually need like that one are fine. Just dont track me kthxbye…
