- Comment on France bids to suspend Shein over childlike sex dolls 19 hours ago:
Did you maybe respond to the wrong comment? I was just making a joke about a user here “dragonfucker” or smt, with pronouns drag/dragself. Idk if they’re still active, I blocked em ages ago
- Comment on France bids to suspend Shein over childlike sex dolls 21 hours ago:
Yes, before long there will be people basing their entire identity on wanting to be fucked by drago… Oh wait
- Comment on I'm struggling to think of any online services for which I'd be willing to verify my identity or age 2 weeks ago:
The EU actually was working on a system described above based on some sort of zero knowledge proof (so verification via your gov’t id, but without the verifying party being able to assert anything other than age > 18 or whatever data you want to verify)
- Comment on every time 2 weeks ago:
Just about every gadget on Kickstarter these days has the option to add tritium vials. “Find your tool anywhere any time” -kinda thing
- Comment on Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features 2 weeks ago:
Unless you are talking about a future where the surveillance state has outlawed basic privacy your statement is just straight false. Sure they are getting there with backdoors in encryption etc, but we’re not quite there yet.
- Comment on Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features 2 weeks ago:
Just because criminals value their privacy doesn’t mean that everyone that values their privacy is a criminal.

And it’s not a bad feature to have for the functionality of some sites. It’s just that as with any feature/rule/etc it can be abused. So a toggle like (according to a comment above) some plugins exist to add is an unfortunate necessity.
- Comment on The meaning of life? 3 weeks ago:
I’m curious on how you plan to retire at 50. Doing that where I live means you basically get no pension so you’d have to have saved up enough to live the rest of your life during those 27 years, so a bit over half your income would need to go into a savings account.
- Comment on Finally, a USB standard that can provide the data AND power requirements of a city. 4 weeks ago:
Any superconductor will do actually, it’s just that the ones we have at this point need to be really frigging cold. A room temp superconductor is the dream, and would function exactly the same as one that only works at a few kelvin.
- Comment on Sick days 5 weeks ago:
In belgium we used to have 3 days of no-doctor-note sick leave for single days, but they were afraid of people taking it as an extra vacation day so it’s been reduced to 2 now.
Sick leave with note is just errr not limited though the social system does take over from your employer in terms of paying you for prolonged sickness.
- Comment on What Happened To WebAssembly 5 weeks ago:
It’s kinda cool as in you can compile a bunch of languages to wasm, so instead of being locked to JavaScript (/typescript) you can instead code in e.g. rust, have all the advantages of the compiler and still run in the browser.
- Comment on You were always on my mind 5 weeks ago:
Homemade :). For real though it’s not that hard.
- Comment on Disney+ loses Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and 3D amid patent dispute 5 weeks ago:
Illegal but not being enforced at all. Just like the big green ‘Track me daddy’ button next to a small grey ‘refuse’ button. Or the ones that force you to go through a list of every partner and disable each separate one. Or etc… All those are illegal, but companies love testing the limits, and with the level of enforcement… Yeah

That sounds like a great feature ngl
- Comment on Noooooo 1 month ago:
Sure this won’t apply to everyone, but if the effort of searching it in confluence is harder than arranging a call your documentation is not structured properly.

I do this except I’m just adding more sentences or rewriting my last message with more info
- Comment on Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually) 1 month ago:
Ah I missed a step in your, my bad my bad. I should stop commenting when tired haha
- Comment on Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually) 1 month ago:
Even better when the desktop launcher launches the epic games launcher which launches the rockstar launcher.
- Comment on Android won't kill sideloading after all, but new verification rules will make it harder 1 month ago:
Actually even if they do sign it you’d need to run adb once for the first install of fdroid/shizuku
- Comment on Android won't kill sideloading after all, but new verification rules will make it harder 1 month ago:
You do not, it can connect with your own wireless debugging session. shizuku.rikka.app/guide/setup/#start-via-wireless… Works since android 11
- Comment on Android won't kill sideloading after all, but new verification rules will make it harder 1 month ago:
At least with something like shizuku one can effectively adb to your own phone, so even if adb became required to install non-google-approved apps on one’s own phone… It will not block FOSS for long.
- Comment on Hundreds of Millions of Audio Devices Need a Patch to Prevent Wireless Hacking and Tracking 1 month ago:
Wires are annoying as hell, and a proper desktop wireless headphone will have basically no loss in quality as they have a base station and are not using Bluetooth.
Same with the mouse, for things like gaming latency can be an issue, but a proper one isn’t using Bluetooth either so no issues on that end (or at least the difference is lower than my skill issue, which causes me to lose games)
- Comment on Someone, I'm thinking with multiple accounts, is downvoting EVERY comment I make. Mildly aggravating, mostly sad for someone like that. Can I find out who and just block them? 2 months ago:
It’s about the findability of the post and correctness of votes. A serial downvoter will diminish both, creating a disconnect between the real quality and the perceived quality.
No those three votes probably won’t make a big difference, but it’s a real problem if this becomes commonplace
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 2 months ago:
The EU might have a rollout of the digital euro soon… Soon being 2029 for the initial rollout because that is fast for us.
- Comment on [App] BattleShip! Couples Counseling (See Inside for Details!) [Fake Ad] 2 months ago:
There’s been a string of misogynistic man vs women posts lately… And the image you sent fits that profile very well (even if the text content goes a different way)
- Comment on Librarians Are Tired of Being Accused of Hiding Secret Books That Were Made Up by AI 2 months ago:
I’ve had AI confidently tell me the latest version of .NET is 8, even talking back at me when correcting it until I told it it had to search the web.

There’s no preview, not even a hint of the image being there… But clicking on the text show the image in Boost
- Comment on 2 months ago:
For real yeah, like it’s gotta be some default in an internationalisation library. It’s way too common on websites for that not to be the case.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Real funny they coloured it differently, because Flanders literally shares a language with The Netherlands.
To be fair half the world seems to forget Belgium is not all french sometimes, or puts french as the default even though Flanders’ population is almost twice as large as Wallonie. Even adding the population of Brussels and Wallonie, Flanders still has the larger population. (Numbers for stats come from statbel)
