  • age restrictions done properly (ie securely and privately) are long overdue.

    This does not exist.

    It is claimed to exist, but you can’t name a single technology that guarantees security and privacy from the user to the source of the verification.

    Are you willing to trust pornhub with your personal information? Xhamster? Kink.com? Motherless? Draft porn? PervertTube? And on, and on, and on.

    You trust that every, single, individual, porn site is going to have both the know how, and scruples, to keep this data 100% secure and private?

    Because I don’t even trust that a site can keep my credit card information private and secure, as has been shown to be a good bet over and over again despite there being a plethora of laws on how to handle such information.

  • USB C has a (soon to be) max power delivery of 240 watts. Shorting that onto a data pin would be catastrophic.

    You can kinda work around that, but honestly the easiest way is to just not present the opportunity.

  • I can’t think of the proper words so I apologize for how untechnical this is: If you look inside the connector you’ll see a thin line jutting out. That’s the actual thing that USB-C connects with. You can’t make that round. The reason the outer part of the plug is an “oval” is just to make plugging it in easier. It could be a rectangle and still work.

  • <.< I can’t tell if this is a joke or not.

  • If we just assume the government is always watching everything we do, there will be no crime! Let’s install cameras everywhere, including in your home, and we can get to 0% crime! What could go wrong?

  • Cheaper than Walmart? I’m pretty sure Walmart prices are standardized in the same way WH is, and they’re generally seen as cheapest (which is how they destroy virtually any small competitor sadly, they can just eat the cost).

  • You son of a bitch you made me check.

  • Flagged for investigation. Not necessarily for any specific thing, but exfiltrating data is a huge no no in many industries, and at many past employers of mine was a terminable offense, even if it was innocent.

  • Yea ngl that was my first question. This really does seem like it’s either grouping them together, or purely heat.

  • Let’s be honest here, the US likely has comprehensive plans for invading every country, including multiple backups to account for different contingencies.

    The concerning part here is that someone in a top position is just casually talking about it.

  • I mean, I kinda understand where they are coming from. I don’t agree with their implementation though.

    Why add this? Public/unsecured/shared wifi. The moment someone is on the same network, they had full access to the printer. Yeah, technically the fault of the end user, but I can understand them not wanting the potential hate for it.

    But in reality, all they needed to do was add a proper local API with full access behind a login/token system. It would suck in the short term as all previous tools would break, but it would solve both problems.

  • Likely more trouble than it’s worth. I know attempting that would get me flagged at past employers. Why chance it?

  • Or leak your creds and let a crypto miner in. But your point still stands.

  • A federal appeals court has rejected President Donald Trump’s request to rehear a jury verdict in favor of E. Jean Carroll.

    Save you a click

  • Yeah I was thinking about this with the news of an ICE raid at a meat packing factory. Let’s see how the cultists feel when their meat prices skyrocket.

  • Funny thing is, even if your skills were in the bracket for more human weighted matches, you’d not have hit them in your first few sessions. The first few matches are always 100% bots to give you a feeling for the game without the rick of being steam rolled by humans.

    There’s also the problem of matches being 100 people and not starting until it hits about that number. Imagine the fun of sitting and waiting for 10 minutes for people to hop on.
