No he’s not shoving ID verification.

He added an optional birth date field to the user database. Along side things like name and location.

Nothing checks the date entered, and nothing enforces it’s use.

you mean like adding it to a bunch of optional details already?

your thinking the average as the mean.

I’m meaning average to be 20th percentile.

meaning “most” people where your average would only include half of all people.

my favourite park ranger quote was talking about why bear proof bear garbage containers weren’t better. The answer was along the lines of there’s a siginificat overlap between cleaver bears, and not so cleaver people.

you have to account for more than average, you have yo account for below it, so that its accesaible to more than 50% of people.

“Put the thing in the slot”.

Which slot? Where?

“Formatting it”

Format a drive? What’s that?

“Its nor brain surgery”.

Your assuming a tech literacy that simply doesnt exisit in the general populace.

All your points about HDDs being physical assume you have computer knowledge to know what to do with a HDD.

There’s USB ones, but that’s what your limited to when it comes to casual users who just want it to work.

Everyone old enough knows how to handle a CD.

as another tech worked, that was a real sentence.

dog food is gesturing at the idea that you should eat your own dog food. The idea being if it’s so high quality, you eat it yourselves.

k8s is a technology that scales servers. it’s a bitch and a half to run smoothly, and takes a team (read lots of money) to wrestle.

yes, because hording money got us into this mess.

Why should you Proffitt so much off what used to be other people’s labour, and now plagiarism machine.

why do you expect me to sympathize with you.

I make good money on my own, and I do my best to NOT find the cheapest solution out there for my problems, and look for more ethical ways to spend my money. Because I care about my impact on others over my money. it’s having humanity.

so… that made it okay?

“well it doesn’t effect me directly other than my bottom line, so sucks for everyone else”

if all you have to say is that, have the day you deserve.

you missed the plot a little.

it’s not that it doesn’t have use cases. It burning the world down with it.

how much more water went down the drain cooling the requests you made? how about the electricity not going to local consumers but AI data centers.

all the computer components shortages…

that’s still before the fact you admitted you would have hired a human, and given them food on the table instead of a corporate giant to buy another mega yacht.

so that’s not the same person you replied to. Nor am I.

no one said anything about legality.

but that this points known hackers at your door.

all I said there was things don’t change unles leaders are made clear.

if that’s demanding action out of you, sure. but I never once said you, specifically you ( or any individual), do anything.

if saying the only way things change is by demanding changes then yes, I guess I demanded something of you

“we” as in those who demand better.

not we as in those who don’t care.

I never said you have to do something. just that things don’t get better that way…

I also loved the moved goal posts of “demanding you do something” to “implying”.

what makes you think I haven’t been?

if we don’t band together to demand it, what will actually change?

also please quote where I demanded anything of anyone here.

the only way things improve is we start demanding better.

lying down won’t do a thing

it always interesting to people who say ‘with current levels of funding’.

because taxes should be going to give you a closer train stop…

I think it’s the contradiction of trying to fight censor ship while also praising the US government, who is in a stream of heavy censorship. just look at that 60 min episode.

bush era regulations aren’t foreigners…

here’s the thing with Putin, he didn’t invent the flames, he just stoked them. The tea party was always this.

your quick to blame current problems on foreigners, while ignoring that those people came to the us BECAUSE of its existing imperialistic politics.

They’re at best a symptom of a larger problem.
