Which proves we are not better than reddit. We are just more privacy minded, but still dumb fucks with a keyboard.
- Comment on California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup 2 days ago:
My guess would be these OS’s just wont do it and stop doing business in that state.
Lucky for you, you can just download them anyway.
My guess is also that these lawmakers dont care nor considered other OS’s than Windows, MacOS, iOS and Android.

The difference between red caps and red armbands is time.
- Comment on The accidental hacker: how one man gained control of 7,000 robots 1 week ago:
I’ve noticed some UK medias doing this. Also before AI. Some make bullet points in the top of the article also for what the whole text is about.
In one way it’s better than people only reading headlines. In the other way, probably more people wont read past the bullet points.
So I dont know if this is AI, or just a cultural thing spreading.

Breaking the chain is both equally hard and important. Your own future family will be a better place.

Proton > US companies
It’s not perfect, but no reason to recommend Google, Microsoft or Apple above it.

“Very weird way of writing numbers”
You mean like in all of Europe (excluding UK and Ireland) and latin America? It’s only english speaking countries and some Asian countries that separate with ,

Cant argue with that.
- Comment on European Parliament bars lawmakers from using AI tools 2 weeks ago:
Imagine writing things as important as laws with AI. Or maybe just look to the far left of the globe, which ironically runs the most far right politics in the west.

Yeah, maybe you are right that “pop culture people” would look down on it because it’s not mainstream.
I play DnD myself, so I guess I’m the wrong person to ask haha.
- Comment on Switch 2 price, PS6 release could be impacted by memory shortage 2 weeks ago:
Then those nasty people cant install their own software either. What do they think this is. A free world???
- Comment on A strong work ethic at the office is considered good, while a strong work ethic at your hobby is considered bad. 2 weeks ago:
Dont agree at all. Everything you put work into and you’re getting good at is impressive.
Most of the time, your hobby also learns you other skills, that can be used in different fields.
And most importantly, you are more happy.

They’ll say and exploit anyone for their numbers.

Same tho, but out loud is a different beast.

Haha imagine instead of singing in the shower, you just talk for 15 min straight.
- Comment on TikTok Refuses to Confirm or Deny That It's Providing User Data to ICE 2 weeks ago:
Guys ffs. The US Cloud act dictates that every SINGLE US based company has to hand over all data when requested to the government.
They took over TikTok. Now the data flows.
It’s not even speculation. Why ask them?
The US government made this into law. You can just read it, if you want. Masks off.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Which then is technically correct, but has never been done. Also, the King in Denmark for example has no veto right.
It’s the ministers who decide.
So making the argument in a post about dictatorship and control from monarchs is pretty weak.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Some EU Royal Families actually still can decide laws!
Please name just one.
- Comment on 'No One Should Have a Copyright on Vance Being Booed': Video From Olympics Blocked on X 3 weeks ago:
Because the police is employed by states and the country. ICE is their private army, and obeys their master.
No difference than officers having red armbands in the 1930’s.

Everything on the internet is public
- Comment on Homeland Security Spying on Reddit Users 3 weeks ago:
Well, there is no such thing as communism with a dictator. It’s simply two opposites.
Communism is without a state. Meaning no true communist country have ever existed in modern time.

Yeah ofc, and it will continue.
The things being censored is just different now.
- Comment on Elon Musk says Tesla ending Models S and X production, converting Fremont factory lines to make Optimus robots 4 weeks ago:
Damn. It’s the end then. That can only mean the robots are ready for the streets. Literally, THE STREETS.
Think about it. He’s in the government (non-elected) and they are deploying ICE agents everywhere.
The robots will 100% be seen standing at street corners “keeping the peace” within a year.
Omfg am I crazy, or is this realistic? Please just tell me I’m wrong and there’s no chance.
- Comment on Eric Schmidt: ‘Europe doesn’t have an AI strategy. If it doesn’t invest heavily, it will end up using Chinese models’ 5 weeks ago:
It’s fucking software. Europe can use it if they want, they can make one from an open source model, and it will also be true in the future.
Europe would just be ready to pick up the scraps that is the US stock market if the AI bubble bursts.

Are we really sure that AI is not just used as a scape goat for companies to raise prices?
Why HDDs?
- Comment on Europe Has a New Plan to Break Free from US Tech Dominance 1 month ago:
I think they do actually. They just showed support for Greenland and has publicly said they are slowly breaking away from trade deals with the US.
Europe is the obvious new partner and both sides would benefit alot.
Canada is for sure also looking at the tech side. And with the open source approach from the EU, they too can benefit.

We could also look for more alliancens who are against the US, calling it “the allied”. The US could find a name with a N and a Z and fill in the rest.

Because of the US Cloud Act. Try compare that to GDPR.
