These shows are both for morons who think this is how nerds act.
The fact that democrats aren't raising more of a stink (with the exceptions of AOC/Bernie, etc) - tells me exactly where their priorities lay.
It DO! Which one am I mixing it up with then? Briar?
"Protect the kids!" - always the first thing they use.
SimpleX doesn't even have a desktop client. IT DO! Discord is mostly used for gaming.
It says information used for age checks will not be stored by Discord or the verification company.
Bullshit. Every time some bitch-ass company says this, 4-5 years later they're like "we were hacked, someone took everyone's photo IDs!"
Others have explained why this is inefficient and useless elsewhere in the thread, I suggest looking at those conversations.
This is an effort by governments the world over to have a real ID attached to your user online. Literally just a way to unmask you so that you can be indentified for whatever purposes they wish.
These people can scan the hair on my nutsack if they want to verify my age.
Yes and the production of millions of tiny plastic tubes to stick everywhere is a wonderful alternative.
The moment this is attempted is the moment I'm no longer on discord.
That's exactly what hydroelectric dams do.............
We already use rain to produce lots of electricity, it's called a hydroelectric dam. I wish people would think before they produced stuff like this.

It sounds like you're not in love with your wife to me.
I'm okay with seeing it from time to time - but when my /all would get flooded with PAGES, and PAGES of the stuff with no normal articles in between, I started muting those users.
Why? It's too much bandwidth, too much upkeep, I already modded/ran communities larger than lemmy; I DON'T want to do it again, especially if I'm paying out of pocket for it. Having to deal with whiny cry-bitches when you DON'T ban something that they don't like it almost as bad as having the stuff banned in the first place.
Hell naw, I'd try to incorporate their fantasy if I could. If incorporating it would bother me, or her, then I'd let her just keep having fun on her own when she wanted.
Creality K1 Max, and it being shipped with a different variant. A post in case anyone runs into this in the wild.
So I run a repair shop in Altamonte Springs, FL - Got a weird one that searching the internet only turned up 1 other instance of it happening, so I wanted to post some details on the repair in case someone else runs into it or in case Creality doesn't admit that it's a thing.
Creality K1 Max - Symptoms: Unable to finish initial calibration. X and Y Axis moving twice as far as commanded, auto leveling absolutely destroying the build plate.
Initial steps in fixing this were to replace the main board. Creality shipped some of these printers with some interference around the main board which could have screwed up the drivers. Many references to this across the internet.
After replacing the main board, it still would not get past the input shaping setup, so the next thing to replace was the toolhead board on the K1. It seems the accelerometer on this one was either A: Damaged by the customer in their attempts to fix, or B: Faulty from the get-go.
