Edit: not talking about op.

I laughed thinking of you lashing out epically at OP just for posting a news story.

Is it going to make things more expensive because of all the money the cartel will need to spend on propaganda and sabotage?

You were right too. I quite liked his first two albums.

Gravy Plane

Love it

Something feels off today

I was thinking the same thing just based on downloading some tarballs for some open source projects. General speed tests were fine.

It looks like they used the egg to protect the rest of the food from the heat.

The impaled guy is my favourite, but overall it’s excellent

Unreal Tournament is an arena first-person shooter, with head-to-head multiplayer deathmatches being the primary focus of the game.

Those are two terrible examples to use for single player games.

My guess is what they really meant was ‘single-purchase’.

That’s one hell of a perverse incentive

One Pink Floyd album and now we have to deprogram everyone’s misconceptions

Sounds like he got to visit a pedo-island.

I feel like I’m having a Mandela Effect moment because this seems very familiar.

I did some searching and it reminded me that there was a shop called Tesseract Computers in my home town.

For the blue cube, are you perhaps thinking of an SGI workstation of some sort? Some of those were blue cubes.

The problem with the phone thing is that banks (though not all of them) limit you to two operating system vendors: Google and Apple. Is that better than Visa and MC?

I think a web of trust is a much more powerful concept. Users should be able to choose how they distribute and delegate trust.

The tree invite thing is what private torrent trackers have been doing for a long time.

You can audit the code but something like:

The rate of commits and new features seems rather high for a single person working by themselves

Is a huge problem in itself IMO. It implies there’s no real human oversight of the project.

Furthermore, a peer review process is planned, through which the consortium members will mutually check and certify their operating systems and smartphone or tablet models. “This is intended to create transparency and replace trust with traceability.”

Still doesn’t sound very open.

I should be able to tell my bank to only trust devices running an OS signed by the grapheneos key, and more importantly I should be able to tell them to trust an OS signed by my key.

Edit: I don’t mean to shit on this too hard. It might be the best next step.

Every app does not need to check your birth date. An app will be able to query if the user is within one of a few broad ranges of age (e.g. under 18), but an app only has to do that if it needs to comply with some other legislation.
