tale as old as time even since I was a kid and I’m in my 40s. Reminds me of the original videogame rating system that Sega originally implemented in NA when the first Mortal Kombat came out. Parents, to this day, are still unable to manage what their kids consume.

I mean my parents never had an issue with this. Like when they’d rent movies, I wasn’t allowed to watch Terminator 2 until I was like 13 and it was my Dads favourite movie. He put it on “ok, you have to leave the room now we’re watching a movie” and I did.

just use one of the libreddit instances like safereddit.com or something. I mean why would you need to comment in a NSFW subreddit? worse comes to worse just use a VPN like mullvad. So many ways to circumvent this.

I believe so? I don’t know it’s been awhile since I’ve used Discord (I just went back to IRC). I know awhile ago when I had to use Discord I had issues signing back up with a temp email I created so perhaps.

But AEW and WWE are entertaining…there’s nothing really entertaining in current politics or media.

if you ever take a glance at the IWC on twitter (Internet Wrestling Community - yes I do watch pro wrestling) you’ll find that most still think it’s real.

They also educate and inform people. That’s a problem for the GOP. They don’t want the American people, ESPECIALLY low income people, to have access to free education and information that PBS and NPR provides. They need to ensure the population is stupid thus easier to control.

So America they’ve taken your medicade, they’ve taken the ability of a good portion of your country to be able to eat, they’re taking immigrants, tourists, or people that they don’t agree with to camps, they’re taking your education, they’re taxing you with tariffs, they have a gestapo, and they’ll be taking away more rights from Women and POC. I have to ask…how much longer until you start to get a little bit violent?

exactly. he doesn’t need them anymore.

QuteBrowser. You control it completely. you can add scripts you want, remove stuff you don’t want. I have mine tied in with my bitwarden account so easy password management. I have a script that skips all youtube ads and has never been detected by google because technically I’m “watching the ads” it just immediately skips them. it’s tied in with greasemonkey so it makes adding customs scripts for whatever site I use a breeze. It has vim style navigation so it’s super quick to move around and don’t need to use a mouse.

I love it, I’ll never use a different browser again. Plus the dev for it is really cool and very helpful.

one of the best products Microsoft ever produced. I absolutely LOVED my old Lumia. great phone, the OS was perfect, just an awesome all around phone. wish I still had it.

sorry but if you can’t navigate around something as simple as KDE Plasma that idiocy is on you my friend because you must be bottom of the barrel dumb to not be able to figure that out.

OR, and hear me out on this one, you could TAX THE RICH.

Does this cheese eating surrender monkey want the French to riot? because this is how you get the French to riot.

If they ask and I have it, sure. People will say “I don’t want my money going towards drugs and alcohol” to which I say “who cares?” once you hand it over it’s not yours anymore, let them do with it what they want. Their lives are already shit as is so what do I care if my $2 coin is going to go buy them a beer…oh no a single beer, they’ll get wasted!

Others will say “but you’re just encouraging it” my guy I live in a city of millions not everyone is handing out twonies to homeless people, it’s not going to cause a massive increase in drug use or alcoholism.

thank you! yeah I was using peertube.tv and thinking “this can’t be it” other than that I tried Dalek Zone and got frustrated with finding anything on that. This is much better thanks.

Nicotine+/soulseek

it’s all I use now.

I must be doing something wrong or using a shit instance cause I can’t find one at all but everytime I go to peertube (and I"m not searching just locally) I see like 3 videos get posted a day, most of which are videos about Lies of P or car videos. LIke there’s no content.

so…what am I doing wrong?

well this is just silly advice. that’s like saying “Don’t use Chrome, use Vivaldi” it’s all chromium thus it will also disable uBlock.

Get off ALL chromium based browsers. I loved Vivaldi but I haven’t used it in well over a year. Switch to FF or a Fork of it like Floorp OR if you’re like me and don’t like Mozilla use QuteBrowser and never have to worry about anything ever again.

Trump is letting the baby have its bottle. that’s all this is. hand him a cookie every now and again so he stops crying. The administration is treating Musk like a toddler.

man those Tribal GBA SPs. yeah I remember when Nintendos advertising in the US was way more edgy. like when the GameBoy Pocket and GameBoy Color came out the commercials for those were dark.

as someone who has worked in the tech field for well over 20 years at this point this is going to be a very controversial prediction and I imagine many won’t agree with me but LLMs, at least in their current state, will go the way of the buffalo.

I’ve seen many tech fads come and go, library fads, device fads, concept fads, product fads, etc, etc, etc. in their current states many companies are now realizing that AI isn’t speeding up their processes or production. What they see now is that they’re slowing things down and creating massive tech debt. “Vibe coding” simply doesn’t work and anyone who does it consistently at any company should be immediately fired. Many places are now hiring contractors to fix their AI created tech debt and I see that as a sort of temporary field to get into for freelancers. Advertise your services to repair damage done by AI. You’ll get work. I get emails weekly from my contacts looking for someone to go into a place and refactor or replace what someone has “vibe coded” or simply allowed an AI to go buck wild on their base.

I see it pivoting away from tech things and focusing back on content creation. writing scripts, blog posts, ads, producing images and films, etc. Writing code or solving tech issues it has, across the board, gotten worse at. But even I’m not so sure about the content creation or it being a “digital assistant” there’s A LOT of push back from the average user and consumer right now that simply don’t want it.

I’m probably one of the few people that believe this but I feel they’ve just gotten worse and worse and people are now starting to wake up and realize they’re all collectively shit and a waste of time and resources.
