The truth comes out... it's all about censorship of the masses:

" The EU says a new age-verification app is technically ready and could let users prove they are old enough to access restricted online content without revealing their identity or personal data. Deutsche Welle reports:

Once released, users will be able to download the app from an app store and set it up using proof of identity, such as a passport or national ID card. They can then use it to confirm they are above a certain age when accessing restricted content

...

The app is expected to support enforcement of the bloc's Digital Services Act, which aims to better regulate online platforms. This includes restricting access to content such as pornography, gambling and alcohol-related services. "

And will there be source code available for this app? Will it work on GNU/Linux? Will it work on FreeBSD? Will it work on OpenBSD? Will it work on VxWorks? Will it work on NetBSD? Will it work on a yet-to-exist operating system????

We already know the answer to this without looking into it. The answer is no. UK GNU/Linux users are already unable to access half the internet now thanks to sites only supporting a subset of the most popular operating systems, browsers, and similar. If your 'unknown' (since GNU/Linux has thousands of versions and releases alone) the default is to block you.

VPNs are more critical today than ever before as a consequence of dumb legislation like this.

You might try and arrest your way into it working by going after developers who don't comply as the US is trying to do with similar legislation and has done even where developers clearly broke no law (cryptocurrency wallet cases like Samourai Wallet).

It won't work. Development will go elsewhere and underground.

meeting a boring little bureaucrat, who gets to live a life of luxury on my tax money, and who is most likely a socialist?

I mean, if I was offered to throw pies at his face, like the clown he is, I'd probably do it, but seriously?

But this just shows how disconnected our revolting civil servants are, and how the fact that they just coast along on tax payers money, stolen money, has completely warped their view of reality.

Sometimes I feel like the people in the public sector live on another planet, completely separated from reality.

I was invited by the embassy to participate in a survey to "map the business climate" of the country I'm in.

As a reward for this, wait for it... I get to enter a _lottery_, and.... wait for it.... the lottery, if I won, would result in a 30 minute meeting with the ambassador.

Jesus Christ, do they have a high opinion of themselves!

Why on earth would I want to waste my life

Soooo... you're complaining about the noise from a nightclub that's been open for forty years when you bought a flat opposite eight years ago?

Why am I unsurprised this guy is a property developer?

If it is legal should people in the United States and Europe strongly encourage but not force white adult people with down syndrome to move to Africa to marry African people with out a retardation medical diagnoses but with a similar IQ who want to marry white people

Would this raise the average white IQ and reduce welfare expenditure without lowering the average black IQ and additionally make black people that wanted to marry a white person happy that they married a white person

@controlc in essence it's no different to ipv4, other than there's more addresses, so less NAT is required. (Technically there's a lot of difference, but most of that is hidden by applications, and users don't need to care)

It's not the limitation of the IPv4 that made things centralised.

Bittorrent, IPFS, Freenet, I2P, Jabber/XMPP, IRC, FTP etc etc are all well decentralised already and work on IPv4.
It just takes people to be bothered enough about security, privacy, decentralisation and the harms of "big tech" to actually use them.

It does, however, mean that there's more choice for people to run their own servers from home, if that's what they want to do.

@h4890 @carolen personally I'd go with "have some bacon, wash it down with beer and say FUCK MUHAMMAD" test.
We have too many homos as it is, so there's that.

Wife and decided to pull the kid out of public school and begin the home schooling. This is going to be an undertaking for the wife but it will be the best outcome for our kid. Public schools are out of control and the teachers are horrible.
