- Comment on Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face 6 days ago:
Age verification is not mandatory. Unless you want to browse NSFW content. You can ignore age verification and keep browsing adult content somewhere else.
I believe many would not verify themselves, groups that do adult content would lose majority of user base. So they would move somewhere else where I assume their user base would follow.

By your logic, we might also remove “Are you 18+?” questions from mainstream porn sites, cause children might not lie and go to a shadier site where it will not ask for their age.
Man. I am not even sure if Discord is better than some shady porn sites. Cause unless you are from another galaxy, you probably heard not so “child friendly” stories about what children been exposed on some lesser known discord channels. Some of the times the content is something you’d struggle to find in open web.
In any case, children would find explicit content anywhere else if they want to. So there is no particular reason to be afraid of ID verification since it doesn’t necessary change that fact.

According to this article they just blocking access to adult channels and content. You may still use discord but not be able to view adult chat groups, pictures and other content if you haven’t scanned your face or uploaded ID.
Seems fair to be honest. Children on Discord been exposed to adult content some which adults would be disgusted by. Not to count pedophilia en masse and seems to be uncontrollable. Discord was not supposed to be a tool for sharing porn anyway. Maybe it would bring some good into the situation.

Pattern recognition.
- Comment on I am looking for a Linux OS 1 week ago:
CachyOS for performance, Bazzite for stability. None of key features I’ve mentioned about these two OSes are overwhelmingly better on each side. Barely makes any difference imo.
My perspective: I fly Bazzite on my main rig (HX99g) and it’s been epic. Gaming mode unfortunately doesn’t detect 165Hz but desktop does. Upsides: seems to run games slightly better than windows, and does most daily computer tasks with ease. Downsides: doesn’t run windows native apps. Can be ran though winboat, but say Whatsapp wont have mic unless you add device in settings, but then you’d lose sound of Bazzite.
Other than that, it has been an epic ride. So far that I have nuked internal SSD windows and clonezilla’d my external Bazzite ssd to internal SSD. Windows hasn’t been installed yet. It is in the plans.

Smurfing was probably a side-effect. I remember their main reasoning was to ban people who trash talk in voice comms/chat so they cant just create new account using same number.

You beat me to it.
My wife once asked me why is it so that on our HTPC there are no ads on YouTube and even on Netflix. Now she’s hyped to use YouTube on her phone, tablet and her PC after I installed Revanced on her portables and Firefox with UBO+Sponsorblock on her PC.
I also remember frustration of our teachers in uni when they were showing some videos off youtube as an example for the class.
It may be not so obvious to us, but in reality most of internet users have no such tools installed on their systems. They raw dogging the internet.

Arguable. Internet around my are is fucking nuts on price. To save some coin, I am stuck with 100mbps. 30gb Bluray movie would take me approx 2.5h while MakeMKV would rip a disc in 50 minutes.

Typicals, yes. This one is a little different. It has a thick plastic cylinder in the middle and tabs on the sides.

Check out MeTube. It is just a wrapper for ytp-dl. You can set extention in a way that only icon needs to be clicked. Everything is automated. No need to do anything in CLI.

- Comment on Should speakers hum when they're connected to a stereo, but the volume of is turned all the way down? 4 weeks ago:
Cheap amps work bad with mid/high-end speakers. Cable should be shielded. Amp should be grounded well. If speakers have balanced inputs (TRS - tip, ring sleeve), I suggest to use a balanced cable. If it just TS (tip/sleeve) or RCA, then it is not balanced and it doesn’t matter what cables you will use. Your amp is most likely the culprit.
- Comment on He took it literally 5 weeks ago:
Many serial killers, murderers or just plain weird people would claim they’ve done it even if they didnt. For the most part they just want some spotlight, or if just a weird person/homeless - to go to jail just to not to stay on the streets. So, I agree that even if they admitted to it - justice system still has to prove they’ve done it.

Cheapest burger and fries will send you 7 euros back. One can buy Doner for that price which will include potatoes, tons of salad and meat, sauce (sometimes even 3 of it) and a piece of bread. Kebap is the new fast food and it is all round better than any fast food chains of today.
- Comment on Firefox dev clarifies that AI features will be 'opt-in' and there will be a 'killswitch' to disable them 1 month ago:
Opt-in you say? How about RMB click with AI chatbot that you can disable by clicking “Disable AI bot” there? Wasn’t opt-in first. And, how is that in aboug:config .ml. list contains tons of entries set to True, rather than False? How in the fuck is it opt-in? It has been opt-out and in order to opt-out most of it, you would need an intermediate/advanced user. There was no toggle switch on a sidebar for normies to see and click. I call BS on this statement.

Jesus. This house has nothing in common with Home Alone anymore. I bet they would bank more on keeping it as close to original as possible, or in other words - do nothing and win.
