Negative time, many games you know and love began as mods of other games.

ATProto is much more difficult to self host instances with.

An order of magnitude isn’t negligible.

Because whether you’ve got $1 or $20, it’s still a negligible amount of money.

Again, those are an order of magnitude different.

I think I like plug-ins so long as there’s a good set that’s easy to get. Nicely bundled defaults, ya know?

That’s two orders of magnitude different. It’s like a dollar versus a hundred dollars. That doesn’t sound hypocritical at all.

If I woke up as a billionaire tomorrow I’d probably sleep in.

I’m more worried about my door blowing open and my pets getting out. Locking the door takes like 1 second and I do it out of habit. Whether it’s safe or not to not leave it unlocked isn’t even a thought that enters my mind. Everyone that needs to be inside is inside. If someone else comes they can knock. Why would I leave it unlocked? Like, for real, it’s one second of effort.

Eugenics, btw

The pixels come out otherwise.

MY BODY IS A MACHINE THAT TURNS ELECTRICAL SIGNALS INTO COLORED PIXELS. YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME, MORTAL. DON’T TREAD ON ME.

Those gluttonous soy enjoyers!

Yeah, in what world is it one tick more corporate/authoritarian than Arch?

It’s its hole! It was made for it!

I recently stopped working as a developer for Disney, and even if this deal is gone for using their IP in AI, they’re still really big on AI at the moment. From the C level there was a push for everyone to be using it as much as possible. Everyone needed to be showing how much they were integrating it into their workflows.

I feel this law has the intent to damage and disrupt things in general, yes. Parental controls have existed for ages but lawmakers don’t seem interested in them. For example, all the porn bans, rather than forcing sites to use some sort of self tagging system that parental controls could easily see (like some response header) they just want them to take IDs. All of it is a push to forcing people to always be online transparently with their real identity well known.

You don’t need to be suspicious, they’re explicitly adding it because of that. They said as much. Look at what they wrote under “Motivation.”

It’s one of the few examples of a, well, I guess it’s still technically nearly a plot hole, not a true formal plot hole. You’ve got this person who cannot be hurt by radiation who helps you by going into an irradiated area to get something to save people. Then when THE SAME THING happens again, they just say “nah, this is your story, you’re meant to die here, I’m literally going to let you kill yourself to save everyone even though I just helped you to do the same goal with the same complications and same caveats.”

You’re saying that in a post age verification world though, my whole point is that if this were there before it wouldn’t seem bad. I’m not saying we should add it now because it would’ve been fine before.

This website says my device is less trustworthy because I’m using incognito and privacy focused settings. Fuck 'em.
