This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Man, they really want to find out who they need to murder, don't they?
Because that's the bottom line. Everybody understands that, right?
AI is all about replacing as many human jobs with automation as possible, and the Age/ID laws are about tracking down anyone who complains about it.
This is what we've known was coming for decades. It's finally here.
Consumer tech fucking sucks. We tried you guys. Time to call it quits on the internet and personal computing. Humans ruin everything.
theres no reason to post lunduke. surely we can get our info from literally any other source
Get fucked.
If the speedrun strategy is "introduce a stupid law, wait for everyone to go 'holy shit none of this can be realistically implemented in this timeframe', wait for OS vendors to just ban the use of the OSes in the country, watch the local industry as a whole to rally and petition the government to stop the madness before there's a new dark age, repeal the clearly stupid law", all before the California law comes to effect - I've got to say it's a bold strategy and we'll see how it plays out.
Edit: Also, not going to upvote a Lunduke video - I'm glad he crams every bit of substantial information in the thumbnails so I can just not listen to him at all
There must be some kind of higher-managed plan on this man. Everything seems to be so sudden and coordinated it just cant be a coincidence. I am NOT giving my ID to use my computer
A conspiracy of global elites? Pffft.
That's crazytalk.
It's not like Peter Thiel ,one time president and current member of the BILDERBERG steering committee , and a bunch of other dudes who worked at PayPal are solely responsible for the trajectory of technology...
Or like some forum on economics somewhere in the world would coordinate economics, and make some crazy plan with a super unbelievably literal name like agenda 2030 with the dude at the head saying "you'll own nothing and you will be happy"
I mean... Crazy. Right.
The rich should have already been filleted and cooked.
The cyberpunk dystopia times arrive at last.
Can't wait for mohawks to come back in style 🌈🤘
Remember: it's up to us to make the cool cyberpunk stuff a reality. The bad stuff is coming no matter what.
who exactly gonna stop me from downloading an operating system from massgrave or linuxtracker? bunch of burocratic morons.
My router hasn't confirmed shes over 14, please advice, it's getting probed by the USA president.
Wait, the Dear Leader's member is RJ45-sized? Wow, that's even more pathetic than I had anticipated.
And shape. The tab must be why he is so cranky.
With my YT, Steam, and email account being old enough to drink, will they till force me to upload ID?
Yes. Because this is not about verifying your age; that's just the pretext. This is about identifying you and remotely being able to lock you out of the devices you longer own and control.
But then again, if you use YouTube and Steam, you're not in control or own anything, so...
One question:
"On your first computer, how did you open a program?
Load "*",8,1 ✅
program.exe ✅
Double click the icon ✅
"Program? Is that like an app?" ❌
Load “*”,8,1
Stop it. You guys are making me feel young.
All I'm seeing is an obj in a dotted frame.
Load "*",8,1 - However, this would not open a specific program, just the first file on the specified drive (if I remember correctly). For a specific program, you would have to name the program.
I seem to recall that if the disk had copy protection you could also use this to simulate an earthquake as the 1541 threw its heads against the stops with all its might...
Happy days!
I've heard about gringos saying all of this about Brazil forcing age verification, but I literally cannot find any article in any Brazilian news website talking about this. So either this entire thing is a hallucination or someone got the wrong info.
All before I was hearing UK and some US states. This is the first I'm hearing about Brazil.
Lemmy users upvoting Brian Lunduke is surprising. He’s very right wing from what I remember
People might not know who he is anymore. since his veer to the right hes become a lot less relevant to the linux community
He's nuts, but even nuts can do something well time to time. Just look at pistachios.
Maybe he would be onboard if it was called "age verification, to make sure you're not exposed to trans people"...
When they make it law to have age verification in your operating system, only outlaws will have operating systems without age verification.
I guess I'm an outlaw then. Enjoy your visit to the wild west, we will always have illegal operating systems aplenty.
13 days 😂 Tell me you don't know how software development works or how operating systems are developed without telling me.
In order to “incentivize” age verification, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced that they will ignore COPPA violations for software performing age verification.
COPPA prevents companies from collecting data on minors without parental consent.
Sounds like the Epstein Class is still in charge of the FTC.
Sounds like the Epstein Class just wants to know where the children are and make it legal to groom them.
