When the rumour was Windows 10 will be the last windows! I don't think people thought it would because of win11 would be so unbearable it would finally drive users to Linux.. but here we are. RIP.

I'd show you mine but it's currently.. UNDER CONSTRUCTION

My genocide is better than your genocide. What a time to be alive.

Age gate positions of power, that is, you can't hold them after you're 55

It's discrimination, should be 65 like everywhere else.

Seriously, I won't limit the maximum age, but would rather use a cognitive ability assessment. It in fact already exists, e.g. as the TV debates for presidential candidates. Were the voters paying attention,..

Isn't the median like 65 already? Seems like it's closer to the minimum.

Remember those DVD releases that had plastic edges and cardboard fronts/backs? That's an era for you. They're always max 480p, sometimes even 480i, and often single layer, dual sided. Those came out when the Sony was still making Trinitron CRTs that could barely do 720p.

This is called Speculative Invoicing, some law farm submitted a c&d and requested your subscriber information, Comcast hopefully threw the request in the trash but forwarded the complaint to you.

Sorry widgetCo. Shoulda been a billionaire!

In Canada meta pushed back (by not letting you link to or summarize recognized free press news sites) due to laws designed to encourage sharing revenue with news organizations for copying their content and posting it without their consent. The result has been a total vacuum of truth, and the platform is literally a anti-vax, agarthan racists wet dream when you open it up as a new user. It's ripe for replacement. I can't believe it's lasted this long.

> laws designed to encourage sharing revenue with news organizations for copying their content

By “encourage” and “copying,” you mean “require” and “linking” respectively. These second order effects were entirely predictable before the legislation was passed.

Is meta less of a cesspool in other countries?

As much as I dislike Meta, these laws are trash - as I understand it the Canadian law was based on the one we have here in Australia, which explicitly defines publishing a link to an article on a news site as being exactly the same (for the purposes of the law) as copying and displaying an entire article.

Then the supporters of the law said Facebook was "using" the news content by linking to a news site, as if they were actually displaying whole articles! Meta generally sucks but these laws (and the people calling for them) sucked just as much.
