because a printer that was $800 in 1995 is now $49

You should see what searching was like on AltaVista. You’d have to scroll past dozens of posts of random numbers and letters to find anything legible. Click through and your computer would emit a cacophony of bell sounds and pour out screens of random nonsense and then freeze permanently. You had to rely on links and web-rings to navigate with any degree of success.

And that in itself was a massive improvement on what was available before.

Joe is short for Java, so a cup of ta ?

You talk as if this is some sort of special trick.

You’re able to work around those things precisely because they have been designed to be turned off.

Running a business system with the TPM turned off is madness, whcih will pretty much guarantee a ransomware attack,.

None of the changes including TPM requirements required a new iteration.

This is completely wrong.

The TPM is a hardware feature, so you need to update the whole system. The software patch is too slow to be useful.

The uptake level is expected given falling PC sales and the fact that upgrading is limited.

4 cylinder and foreign (Austin B series),. definitely woke.

The 400 if you acidentally stepped on it it’d flip back and bark your shin, you’d fall over and put your foot through it. that’s why there’s so few today.

Its BASIC with big boy pants on.

HERETIC ! CAST THIS FOUL USUPER FROM THE TEMPLE !

C-ing is believing.

C ++ is double plus good.

C has always been at war with Rust.

Hey fuck this shit

The problem is how do you hide what website you’re going to from the identity provider?

Not only don’t you need to, you would really have to know the generator of the token because it needs to verify that you are the user that was issued the token.

You upload identity to a site and it gives you a date stamped token which confirms your age.

Then when that token is uploaded to an SM site, it verfies the identity of the giver with the site that gives the token. The identity is a hash generated by the token site and contained in both the token and a namespace at the token site, so only the token site knows the real identity. Once the token has been confirmed, the namespace is re-used.

So you can’t really sell the token, because its linked back to the identity you uploaded to the token site. You need to be logged in to the token site.

Well what are you supposed to click on, the whole traffic light or just the lights, all the blocks with a cyclist, or just the cycle, or just the blocks that are all cycle ? I’ve tried everything and nothing works.

The sad part is that these don’t really stop bots, captcha solver services have bot accessible APIs which can be used to solve these things for malicious actors, they pay real people pennies to solve them and sell it as a service.

Its not really intended for that, it for bots that run thousands of clicks a minute to bring the site up in a search algorithm.

Identification would need to be handled by a 3rd party to even remotely work. Then they pass on the “yes they’re over 16” tick to the social media platform, with no actual identity details.

The legislatiion specifically allows SM sites to handle ID.

I don’t see many options between asking for a birthdate and asking for ID for this problem. I don’t see any way that this can be enforced that isn’t problematic.

The senate inquiry outlined the two likely solutions :

1. Uploading ID to the website.

2. 3D face scanning. This will include continual monitoring so if another person comes into view they will have to face scan in. Remember, its prohibited for chidren to even watch prohibited content with their parents.

The law does not require users to upload government IDs as part of the verification process.

No, it merely requires the sites to provide an alternative, such as face scanning using a mobile phone unlock. Using a computer ? Then you’ll have hand over your ID.

The law also explicitly gives sites the right to onsell private information if its outlined in the terms of agrrement.

The Camry is imported from Japan. And the Rav4 from Canada.

Arrests for illegal crossings from Canada spiked in the last fiscal year, but remain a fraction of the number of those from Mexico.

I don;t get it, surely its the US thats responsible for border crossings with Canada ? Its not like they’re trekking across the mountains like the Von Trapps.

Well under that logic why bother with any business expenses ?

Why bother with labour laws, or income tax, or work insurance, or workers compo, or environmental laws ?

Because they are all costs on business. And you can bet the foreign manufacturer doesn’t comply with anything like the US regulations.

It will affect Canada a lot more.

Even with 25% tariffs, it will still be cheaper to make in Mexico. And they will no longer have to pay the workers the same as the US, as they do under USMC.
