- Comment on UK’s Major Porn Providers Agree to Age Checks From Next Month; Aylo, Owner of Pornhub, YouPorn, and RedTube, Will Add Age Assurance Checks by July 25. 5 days ago:
Even having a girl as young as 16 on there, which I don’t think was legal (age of consent is 16 in the UK but I don’t think that extends to pornography).
The Sun only stopped it in the last 15 years.
- Comment on Do you remember Windows 95? How about Windows 96? 1 week ago:
I do kinda wish we had gotten WinFS. All the “ideas” of it seemed cool, just impossible to implement without breaking every existing application.
- Comment on MPs narrowly back legalising assisted dying in England and Wales by 23 votes 1 week ago:
Seriously. I’m only in my mid-thirties but I’d sign a document tomorrow if it secured my right to end myself if I’m unable to do basic things like eat, use a toilet and live without restriction.
Ok maybe not tomorrow. But I’d want to do it quick before the inevitable senility kicks in!
- Comment on Iran asks its people to delete WhatsApp 2 weeks ago:
Wouldn’t want those pesky citizens having the ability to communicate securely, would we !
- Comment on Trump says UK is protected from tariffs ‘because I like them’ as trade deal is signed off 2 weeks ago:
Or he’s just decent at diplomacy?
- Comment on Over £1 million for towns and cities to clean up chewing gum stains 2 weeks ago:
Does anyone here throw their chewing gum on the ground? Maybe I’m a bit of a clean-shirt but I either wait until I find a bin or just swallow the gum. I consider throwing gum on the floor the same as littering anything else personally.
- Comment on Over £1 million for towns and cities to clean up chewing gum stains 2 weeks ago:
It’s a yearly grant, and it’s also used to buy better cleaning equipment so will have a longer-lasting impact. It’s also £1m which is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
- Comment on HIGH ON LIFE 2 Official Trailer 3 weeks ago:
The studio ditched Roiland as soon as the game was released. He only voiced one gun if I recall (the main one), but wasn’t involved in production or writing at all except for a bit of improv presumably.
He also had no involvement in the dlc and the gun he voiced didn’t feature.
The original game had many other guns with many other voices from other, more famous comedians.
Don’t think there’s as much “drama” here as the internet wants there to be. The studio got a clean break from him as soon as it could, and it seems to be going fine.
- Comment on Google Play’s latest security change may break many Android apps for some power users. The Play Integrity API uses hardware-backed signals that are trickier for rooted devices and custom ROMs to pass. 5 weeks ago:
Bit hyperbolic, don’t you think? Rooted/Custom ROM users are so tiny, and they typically use security vulnerabilities to obtain root access. It’s not exactly surprising that Google closes those vulnerabilities when it can.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 5 weeks ago:
It is kinda funny watching the American Exceptionalism finally crumble before our eyes. Shame most Americans aren’t reflective enough to realise what’s happening.
- Comment on Deal with EU will make food cheaper and add £9bn to UK economy, says No 10 1 month ago:
So that’s three deals that Starmer has now made with countries/blocs that the Tories promised they’d do and failed to deliver.
Really feels nice having a government that actually wants to govern.
- Comment on AI-based automation of jobs could increase inequality in UK, report says 4 months ago:
That’s the idea.
- Comment on Misogyny identified as breeding ground for extremism in UK, says leaked report 5 months ago:
The comments on this post over at that other site are quite insane…
