    Are cookies stored in cookies.sqlite? Or are they now stored elsewhere?

    Some Republican officials have denounced the assassination
    of Charlie Kirk as a conspiracy by liberal Democrats. Why
    then is the attempted kidnapping of the Democrat governor
    of Michigan, the shooting of a Democrat state senator of
    Minnesota, and the assassination of the Democrat speaker
    of the Minnesota state assembly not denounced as a
    conservative Republican conspiracy?

    There are plenty of SQLite viewers out there.

    I was going to say this ... until I remembered that DER was Win ...

    "I don't like sqlite CLI; if I were going to look at a sqlite file I
    would install sqlitebrowser from my package manager."
