Wow yes. Had forgotten about this. They gave alternates of who killed him. I don't remember them all but for some reason I rember Apu and Maggie firing with angry faces. I need to watch that again.

As Billy Connolly ones said, if you’re a miserable young bastard, you’ll just be an old miserable bastard.

That was madness. Somebody putting his skills to good use to rescue a bunch of people stuck in a flooding cave and gets called a pedo for saying Elons robot is useless.

It can be used by AI age verification tools on a bunch of websites. So yes I guess that is fraud. But these tools claim not to store the data in the verification process. If somebody could prove a made up ID was used then I suspect they're in bigger shit for a GDPR leak.

It's not just remote work. All our manufacturing sites use to VPN connections data centres. It would cripple manufacturing on an epic scale if they were instabanned.

If they ban VPN's that's going to hit corporations harder than the average person.

I know this is a bit different. I'm in the UK and there's a few sites I use which can't implement the age verification due to being a small team so they've straight up banned all UK traffic.

VPN to another EU location seems to work. I'm actually surprised it was that easy. It also works on a bunch of sites I wish not to have an account. Not all, but most.

The politicians who passed this are either clueless morons or are using this to push some other agenda (no idea what).

Similar to me. I used 3rd party app which was great. The app developer even went to the effort for keep it going with a subscription to keep the app alive. But I refuse to pay an API fee. I left and months later I discovered Lemmy.

I'm nowhere near as active on Lemmy as I was on Reddit but I'm happy with that. I feel I've met a healthy middle ground.

I was actually measuring my desk today as I want to fit a draw under it.

Kick his ass Seabass!

Same as here in the UK. It's depressing hearing how bad people in the US and some other countries have it. Although there is always room for improvement on 25 days!

Does the 25 days include national holidays like Xmas, etc? Perhaps it's more than 25 once the national holidays are factored in?
