What is Ireland supposed to do? Why protest your own government who has nothing to do with the rising prices?


Have there ever been any consequences for false takedown requests you could point me at?


Who uh .. who do you think wrote the DMCA? That is definitely one of the shitty systems I am referrimg to above.


One bullshit system affecting another.

Real cool.

It doesn’t have to be like this. We could use government to actually break up and regulate these gigantic companies.



You can never, ever trust the client. Client side anticheat is wasteful security theater.

Get your “anticheat” code off my cpu and implement actual security on your servers.

Everyone has seen the way forward, the Japanese automakers put their fingers in their ears and went “na na na na!” for years. Now Korea and China are way ahead.

Conservativism is a disease for any society.



I think maybe you should think through why you feel that way, though. Surely you could decide to go out and be social because you would like to make new friends or be entertained. You’re here, writing out your thoughts, so you’re able to reflect and decide on actions.


What evidence are you basing the idea that your drive comes from your libido? There are a lot of people out there with low or no libidos who have accomplished a ton.

Why are you focusing on libido as the source of creativity to the exclusion of a lot of other potential drivers?

This is what I am saying: the focus seems odd and creepy without lots of evidence for your reasoning.



This view seems, to me, to be really sex-focused in kind of a creepy way that … if you ask me, might have something to do with denying basic urges.

You can go out into the world looking for connections that are not sexual.


You cannot trust clients to even report reality about what hardware they’re running on.

Not to mention all the potential cheats that can be done at the input level.

There is no valid client-side approach that is worth the wasted dev time and cpu cycles.

All of that focus should be where you have an actual chance of controlling your execution environment and inputs so you can do anti-cheat on trusted hardware: the server.


Client-side anti-cheat is a lie that makes your computer less secure.

No thanks.

Anti-cheat belongs on the vendor’s hardware, not our untrusted client CPUs.



Meanwhile Trump and the GOP are paying a french company $1B to stop an offshore wind project with a supposed promise to instead invest in fossil fuels.

So piss our tax money away to a foreign company in the hopes they’re going to invest in last century’s tech.

It is always 🤡 shit with conservatives.


They have changed course, thankfully:

edit: my mistake, I saw this briefly earlier today and thought it had been merged, not just closed.
