  • Oh this argument is just a meme and I'm here to enjoy that. But also KDE > Gnome, no question.

    Gnome is the reason it took me so long to like Linux for daily driving, because it was the default DE on the distros I was trying. Thank goodness for Fedora+KDE Plasma. If someone else likes it, good for them - I like that they are using Linux.

  • What? No… that is wrong.

  • Canadians say U.S. no longer an ally, is bigger threat than Russia: poll

    Jump

  • Yeah that stupid country can suck a truck stop dick and then fuck itself right off.

    GO AWAY.

  • Look how much Canadians hate the United States now

    Jump

  • It’s because, as a culture, the place is chockablock full of highly dangerous morons that are totally out of control.

    The country is led by a pedophile rapist murderer. That’s who they chose to rule them because they are that fucking stupid and crazy.

    And sure half of them are like “Oh what can we do?” Nothing apparently, especially when you CANT ALLOW YOURSELF TO ACCEPT THAT ITS YOUR MESS TO FIX.

    Fucking get your shit together

  • Get. Out

    Jump

  • if you think about how little the average person knows

    Average person... on the Internet

  • Dems Want to Ban Surveillance Pricing at Big Grocery Stores

    Jump

  • Don’t stop at just grocery stores! Make it universal. Get the online vendors

  • Google criticizes Europe's plan to adopt free software

  • The leopard of consequences is hungry for tech oligarch faces.

    Eat, you majestic creature. And godspeed.

  • Homeland Security has reportedly sent out hundreds of subpoenas to identify ICE critics online

    Jump

  • Because they dont have a single, fully-qualified penis amongst them all to use to convince anyone.

    Sub-penis is the best they can threaten with.

  • Oh, good: Discord's age verification rollout has ties to Palantir co-founder and panopticon architect Peter Thiel

    Jump

  • Wooooowwwww. It’s being used for exactly what I said it would be~

    I know a lot if us are not even surprised in the least, but i hope some of the head-in-the-sand naysayer motherfuckers wake up and learn something.

    When they say the images wont leave your computer. Its because they converted it to facial geometry. They dont want the images because they take too much storage.

    When they say they will delete it after processing, processing includes sending a copy to whoever else theyve agreed to share it with. Palantir, im sure here, maybe through an intermediary data broker.

    I deleted my discord account immediately when the news of this face-check-age-check broke

  • Discord walks back age verification fears for most users

    Jump

  • Yep. Too late, i fucking deleted that shit without hesitation or regret.

  • 'What a great way to kill your community': Discord users are furious about its new age verification checks — and are now hunting for alternatives

    Jump

  • I use it daily, but I’ve now deleted my account and will move on.

    I dont put up with this shit.

  • Control the conversations in the digital third spaces. Crush ideas, punish those who are a threat to “authority”

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

    Jump

  • Yeah I hear you. I just dont think the pressure is actually building on them for that rn.

    People’s attention is on higher profile issues in that arena and it looks like those cases will go on and on without resolution.

    Imma call it a 100% smokescreen for Discord, but absolutely you know the only possible reason they might ever care to do anything to deal with the problem (which this new measure does not)

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

    Jump

  • Translation: we wont age verify you or collect the biometrics if we already have what we want through other channels (federated SSO, data sharing agreements)

    Your facial geometry wont be needed if facebook already has it and your discord identity is linked to that one(through your permission or not)

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

    Jump

  • No. That is an issue for all online social spaces to contend with. It wont be solved by blocking mature content servers/channels.

    “Won’t someone please think of the children” is the pablum that you will accept so they can monetize your biometric data with the data you create and consume on their platform.

    You really think they give a shit about kids safety?

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

    Jump

  • Ok. Well I will delete my account then.

    This kind of enshittification is intolerable. The reason this exists is solely to tie your online behaviour to your real life identity.

    “They” want to control people’s conversations in the digital third spaces. And to find ways to punish you for the thoughts they disapprove of. Discord is happy to sell that data to whomever is buying it.

    Oh well. More fediverse, please!

  • Its like there is some kind of Establishment Democrat playbook for political stunting, and its just non-stop weak-dick cringe.

    They don't understand the memes of the vox populi, they don’t even understand memes are speech at this point.

  • TIL for at last 15 years US government has been able to implant hardware into USB cables to turn them into hacking devices with wireless capability.

  • How do you argue against "I have nothing to hide" in relation to privacy and security?

  • Hate to break it to you. Dad has abandoned (or never had) critical thinking capabilities.

    There isn’t a reasonable argument you can make against his emotional judgements that will get through and change his beliefs.

    You might be able to trojan horse some ideas into his head somehow, but taking the direct path of just giving accurate information will not work
