We either have a free, open and anonymous internet… or a dystopian identity-required-at-every-point-of-access, heavily moderated, hellscape.

Is your argument that kids spaces should be free and open spaces, because the only alternative is everything has to be age gated? If not, feel free to expand on what this has anything to do with how a service advertised to kids shouldn’t be treated differently than non kid-oriented services.

The phone hurts much less when you sleepily drop it on your face

Cool, gotta get that Nazi propaganda into the countries smart enough to ban that shit, wouldn’t want people to think there was any sense left in the white house.

That would require them to actually think at all, it makes much more sense to expect the parent to monitor the child’s activity constantly and never let them do anything on the Internet unsupervised. They will also then complain years later about helicopter parents not giving them any freedom

Roblox isn’t a daycare. It isn’t a school. It isn’t marketed to have any responsible adults online per number of players.

But it’s a platform marketed towards children, takes a cut of the shovelware that other kids make, and didn’t bother policing their platform seriously until recently. The fact that it’s a kids game that’s marketed to kids and they go after people reporting on the abuses that they let run rampant on their platform is just mental to me. I really hope Roblox gets taken to the cleaners for how they actively have fucked around and let their platform get to where it is.

I got a few songs into Citadel and I want to like them, but I feel they’d be better served as instrumental based on the painters of the tempest trilogy and pyrrhic. I’ll see about giving Exul a chance though, thanks for the recommendation!

Oh yeah, those are both right up my alley, thank you!

I love Polyphia, so I’ll have to check out Sungazer and Casiopea

A user of culture I see. I’ve not heard of Ne Obliviscaris, so I’ll have to check them out

Between the Buried and Me is one of my favorites, as is Parkway Drive recently. Other top artists are ones like gloryhammer, Amararanthe, and Alestorm. Outside of metal, bands like Supercommuter/Optimus Rhyme, MC Frontalot, mc chris, and Captain Dan tend to be my most played

One of my favorite random artists I’ve found recently is Anthony Vincent who makes songs covers in the style of other artists, and I just can’t get enough of Mr Brightside by A7X

“This isn’t a case of being inspired by something and building on it. It’s the opposite of that. It’s taking something that worked and making it worse. Is there even a goal here beyond ‘generating content?’”

The Sloptya Nadella way

Does this mean I can finally remap key combos for system shit in Firefox? Ctrl-J no longer opens downloads on my Linux box, which is fucking stupid

Blowing their load already I see. AI can’t even automate individual tasks I do, it’s not going to do shit to my job in 2 years

I’m STILL waiting for a sequel to B&W2

Sorry to tell you this, but that wasn’t a rational thought (unless this was in the teens/aughts). I bailed on netflix 8-10 years ago cuz I got sick of having whatever I wanted to watch disappear before I had a chance to watch it. And I’m not paying 100/mo for all the streaming services is need to watch what I want to watch, so archival it was. And it was good.

And yet I doubt it will impact republican support by more than a precent or two at most

Wtf is a “LITRPG” and why is that on the cover for a novel?

Ooof, yeah shipping anything in/out of burgerstan is painful right now. But I will say, the owner is a pretty cool dude and he might be willing to let you know where to source the components he uses to build his units. Looks like it’s basically just a PoE rpi, the zigbee and zwave modules, and a daughter board to connect the modules to the rpi, along with a 3d printed case

Not even the 2nd. That’s their next Epstein Files. They’ll use it to get elected, then take it away.

They already are. Look, name one other president that said anything close to ‘take their guns first, due process second’ or outright said a citizens’ murder by law enforcement was justified due to carrying a legal CCW with additional ammo?

Conservatives got played like a fucking fiddle, and they’re happy about it because minorities are suffering. Their only regrets is they’re getting hurt along with them.

Ideal device would be wired over ethernet and have z-wave and zigbee hubs and possibly POE, but I haven’t found any which would also be fully supported by HA.

Ha! I actually have exactly what you want ,TubeZB has a dual zigbee/zwave PoE network controller.

I had a zigbee only model from a few years ago that I’m currently swapping this one for, and I’ve got no complaints about the product
