Agreed my point was a larger issue obviously os age verification is nonsense

I mean I get it, but regulations are sometimes necessary.

Banning smoking indoors for example, you might say “Just don’t go where they smoke indoors!” well yea… Except that shit was everywhere where people were congregating and all you’d do is isolate yourself…

A lot of regulation might sound like “just don’t” but if every kid around your kid has a tablet, and there is no rule against tablets, it’s only your kid who will be an outcast.

I’m in general against too much regulation, but like vaccines, sometimes you have to target a whole group to fight a disease. You alone staying away is not viable.

And all of this comes before we even talk about the MASSIVE disadvantage patents have against the mega corps, from the CONSTANT ads, to the targeted manipulation, it’s not a fair fighting field.

Maybe OP’s kink is blue balls

I use restic too, just said zip since more people might understand it easier

I use backblaze it’s like $3 a month or something

It’s crazy good for something FREE. Like infinitely better than any major crop google apple etc because you KEEP your photos. Anything you upload to the cloud is being mined by them.

The only thing I tell people is that you need a cloud backup.

I have an automated nightly worker that zips all my photos encrypts them with a 32 character password and then uploads it to a bulk storage facility.

Yup, purchased myself 2 days ago. Absolutely deserve all of the support!

Could you elaborate on this?

Honestly I use debugger when I have to go deep into some library’s bullshit code. My stuff should be stable clean and understandable enough to quickly see what’s happening with console log.

If I were to find myself needing debugger all the time with breakpoints and all this shit, it means shits has gone sideways and we need to back up and re-evaluate the code.

When I first learned about docker I was sure it was a scam. It sounded too good to be true. It’s literally the meme it only works on my computer so we’ll ship your computer!

It’s awesome! And still feels like magic!

Seriously who started this horseshit trend??

To the top with you!

Help a brother out, which one is closest to Nova? I don’t mind paying for good work, I just want home screens and being able to place my icons where I want, also widgets!

I cancelled Netflix when they did the sharing bullshit and I cancelled prime when they wanted MORE money to not give me ads. Fuck that.

However, you and I seem to be in the minority since these mega corps push one bullshit after another and people just bend over and go “please use lube this time…”

The only language worse than JS is CSS…

The one compromise I’d like to see is for sites to have to provide keywords like in the robot.txt file that says what they serve. So let’s say a site provides porn or gore and a parent wants to block access to it, it should be a simple toggle on the router or browser or both.

Anything beyond that is just bullshit

It would be easy like this

I will make healthcare free for everyone! We’re going to have the best healthcare in the world and billionaires are going to pay for it!

I’m going to start a federal drug program! We’re going to have the cheapest drugs in the world and no-one will have to decide between rent and their medication!

I’m going to start a national Give Parents Freedom Act, where we will provide free daycare for any parent making under 100k/year! We will pay for it by cutting the military budget by 1%!

In my first 100 days I’m going to sign the mothers are awsome executive order mandating 1 year of maternity leave for mothers and 3 months for fathers. Employers will not be allowed to fire any new parent.

I’m also going to divert ICE money into a new consumer agency called “IYCIWFYU” (If you collude I will fuck you up) their entire mission will be to investigate corporations that are price fixing and stealing money from the people.

I’m going to make digital Tax filing FREE for everyone and divert all IRS investigations into people making over 5 million per year!

Instead we get

I’ll try to pass a bipartisan bill to maybe fix some roads… 🤷I don’t know… We’ll see what Republicans let me do 😢

Fuck your dad.

No offense.

What is even the point of buying a home in a HOA? You’re getting fucked by the bank on the loan and then by random dickheads about your yard… Might as well get an apartment at that point and get some rest.
