Will every website out there start doing age verification? Doubtful

And sites handling every link with JavaScript, making Ctrl - click to open in a new tab impossible

Fuck all sites that break basic browser functions

And nothing will happen

To paraphrase someone:

You need to win every time. I need you to lose only once.

Anyone thinking that this won’t pass this time, or next year, or the year after that or the year… They will push this as a new thing, wrapping the same bullshit lies in a new paper each time…

Eventually it’ll pass, it always does. All they need is patience

The only possible cou ter to this is to enshrine the right to own a computer and internet access into your constitution or something like that.

That message at the bottom was written by “it’s open source so it must be safe” type security expert

JAIL THEK ALREADY

If I commit fraud, I get jailed. Why isn’t anyone jaiked over this?

I think that China saw the shitshow that is Ukraine, saw that even the US is breaking its teeth on Iran, and decided that a direct attack on Taiwan either will fail or leave them with an utterly destroyed Taiwan after an exhaustive battle

Either way, the cost of a Taiwan invasion attempt and all the fallout that comes with it would just make it a really bad move.

Next up: diplomacy

Walmart now?

Have there been more fire bombings?

This won’t end with wage increases

This will end in investment in metal detectors and pay downs and shit like that to ensure employees won’t be able to come in with lighters anymore

And?

So is there a true open source chat program that requires no account (so full anonymity) and has good encryption for privacy?

And what will they do about it?

But keep defending Israel, keep saying that the attack on Iran is fine!

Meh, go ride a bike everyone, finally we have a chance to show how awesome cities can be when designed for bikes instead of cars

Evil people can be good looking

Ironically, they ARE linked to Iran now, whether they like it or not

Waluigi?

I’m too scared to look it up

What’s up with the AI slop image for this post?

Also, Mozilla is destroying Firefox by themselves, they don’t need help from m$

And yet another public service for us all goes away, while the rich become richer

their service provider was Rogers

Well that right there is your problem

Rogers is -by far and far- the worst provider bthst has ever existed. If you host something there, it’s on you.

The company I work at still has a lot hosted there and it’s laughably bad

3 ovh servers with a total cost of 700 dollars gives me 10 times the amount of hardware (ram, storage) at about 10 times the speed (100MB/s write speeds at Rogers, 1600MB/s on Rogers AFTER the encryption layer, so absolute speeds are probably still twice higher than that) for 10 times less the cost (Rogers does 7000/month)

The Rogers team once upgraded a 5 server farm from Windows 2012 to 2019 and took 1 year and 4 months to complete this

Random half hour downtimes are a weekly tradition, especially about a year ago

Sometimes they just accidentally disconnect servers to the point where the filesystems get so corrupted that it’s irrecoverable. Multiple times

Rogers happily overcharges almost double for months, hoping you won’t notice

And most of our servers are still there. Don’t ask why I don’t know, it’s dumb

Yes and have something that is compatible with Europe, please!
