  • There's actually legal precedent against scrapping a website through unofficial channels, even if the information is public. But basically, if you scrape a website and hinder their ability to operate, it falls under "virtual trespassing".

    I'm assuming it would be even worse now that everyone is using the cloud and that scrapping their site would cause a noticeable increase in resource cost (and thus, directly cost them more money because of cloud usage fees).

    It's why APIs are such a big deal. They provide you with an official, controlled, entry point to a platform's data.

  • My favorite part about New Teams is when it kept telling me I was forced to move from Old Teams to New Teams because our IT department was pushing the update. Cut to everyone in IT being confused as fuck because no they fucking weren't.

  • I got a 13 Pro Max originally (because I liked big phones when I was using Android), and the weight and sharp edges just made it hurt my hand like hell. Got a 13 Pro instead, and I've been kind of wishing they kept the "Mini" lineup going the more I use it...

  • It's okay, even if if they wanted to nuke the world, they'd need to find which specific portal to log into, and even after inputing everything correctly there'd be around an hour before the servers actually processed the change request.

  • Nothing concrete from what I can tell. Becoming a hard fork is relatively recent though (mid-November of last year, roughly).

    As a side note, I understand why Gitea and Forgejo went for a "copy GitHub Actions" approach to their CI, but man do I wish more self-hosted repo software tried to copy Drone/Woodpecker instead. Iterative containers in the pipeline is such a smoother build experience, and it kind of sucks that Gitness is the only one doing it (that I know of).

  • The issue is that the picture then exists, and it's hard to prove it was actually destroyed.

    For example, when I was in high school, a bunch of girls would send nudes to guys. But that was 10 years ago. Those pictures still exist. Those dudes aren't minors anymore. Their Messenger chats probably still exist somewhere. Nothing's really preventing them from looking at those pictures again.

    I get why it's illegal. And, honestly, I find it kind of weird that there's people trying to justify why it shouldn't be illegal. You're still allowed to have sex at that age. Just don't take pictures/videos of it.

  • Also issues with links that get ads on top of them. You can still click them, you'll get redirected to a blank page (because the ad gets DNS blocked), but with an adblocker you would've gone to the non-ad link.
