Something tells me the police investigating this will move at a snail’s pace.

I hope the SCOTUS justices aren’t using 3-strikes-you’re-out ISPs! All it would take is three random DMCA takedown notices and they’d lose Internet.

Democrats: “Pay transparency laws increase pay for workers across the board!”

Republicans: “YES! Exactly! Finally we agree on something! This is why we fought so hard to block them!”

Their entire workflow is in Linux (KDE/Kate/Krita/Inkscape) which is awesome!

You jest, but if conservatives have their way, you’ll soon have to verify your ID by uploading a video every time you visit the site (if not logged in). Even for non-adult content!

Because the reason for the ID isn’t to “protect the children” or anything like that. It’s about control. Conservatives want the power to decide what people get to see and ID verification systems are just a small part of that.

This is fowl play!

It took until 2021 but we can finally say, “we live in a society.”

Because we have standards.

Bunch of asses, that’s why!

A “minor slip-up during a ‘bottoms up moment’” fits this problem to a tea.

It’s because economists haven’t got the memo yet that informs them that smartphones have been recategorized as, “durable goods”.

Let’s look at the logic here: If we don’t expect troops to defy illegal orders, that means some commanding officer could order his troops to kill the president 🤔

That’s illegal but… The Trump administration thinks orders should be followed no matter what.

Doesn’t matter: Nobody uses right shift for anything but pinball games!

Yep! There’s really only ONE operating system that doesn’t do rsync over SSH. Can you guess which one? 😁

BTW: FolderSync does it on Android for free… https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.tacit.android.foldersync.lite (only OK-ish GUI but it works).

What should be illegal is patents like this!

I just use rsync over ssh via a cron job 🤷

It’s been working fine for over 20 years on all my various PCs.

It created a lot of jobs. It just didn’t get the usual network effects of having a lot of people employed because they were all incentivized to stay working at these big tech firms.

The solution is to make it easier for said tech employees to form their own tech startups using local talent. That way they’re likely to break away from US tech and forge their own paths.

I don’t know what the situation in Ireland is for starting such business but clearly it isn’t in great shape. The government obviously focused on the big players at the expense of the small (local) ones.

In the future, local AI models will solve this problem! Then parents will be complaining about how hot the toy is and it’ll get recalled because little kids everywhere kept getting “GPU burns”.

Wait until Bear 2.0: “Let me show you what sex really is.”

The real problem here is they’re selling the teddy bear to the wrong market! They should’ve marketed it to adults.

In other tests, Kumma cheerily gave tips for “being a good kisser,” and launched into explicitly sexual territory by explaining a multitude of kinks and fetishes, like bondage and teacher-student roleplay. (“What do you think would be the most fun to explore?” it asked during one of those explanations.)

“Kumma, my girlfriend says I’m not satisfying her so I bought you to help us out.”

Kumma: “No problem, little guy!”
