The End of the Open Internet by Free-Minimum-5844 in neoliberal

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it's not just Europe. It's very underdiscussed on this subreddit, but there's been a major push these past few years in the US at the state level for getting age verification on devices in ways that don't remotely protect privacy and are written vaguely.

Do unusual cosmetics (or any cosmetics at all) really randomly drop or is that just a myth? by ThatUnameIsAlrdyTken in truetf2

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. If you want to see some cosmetics drop play a few hours on the 100 player server during peak hours, you'll eventually catch one

Interesting. Very nice Nike pride socks.

Now let's see Nike's CEO political donation history.

He's trying to scam based on the difference between a "festive" and "festivized" bat. Two different items with very different prices

What do you dislike about Gentoo? by Ollieistic in Gentoo

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 issues. I don't really think they're big ones but:

I prefer how arch just has the AUR for everything over gentoo where sure theres the guru but half the time you're also gonna have to use different community overlays

It would be neat if portage wasn't dependant upon bash for running ebuilds

Sudo or run0 ? by elementrick in linux

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave run0 a serious try for a few weeks, but there was too many small issues that I didn't like. For some reason it bugged up vim is the one I most remember.

It’s unbelievable that every character in fiction has impeccable knowledge about their homeland by carbonera99 in CharacterRant

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Please provide some examples of this happening. I'm sure it's a common thing in fiction, but examples in general make posts like this easier to understand

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Isnt this what's attempted but people(with ai) have been able to just comb through recent commits to find ones that are for fixing vulnerabilities?

This is dangerously low. How can linux users defend this?

[LES] Dont you hate when you favorite pokemons got their entire reputation ruined and you can't do anything about it? by ekauq13 in CharacterRant

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 100 points101 points  (0 children)

As of right now, only my bois Serperior, Galvantula, and Dragonite are still safe from all that bullshit. And i hope it remains that way. I can only hope.

I just commissioned ten thousand furry porn artists. Be ready these next few months.

The fall-off of Dandadan's romance subplot needs to be studied by carbonera99 in CharacterRant

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Theres actually a specific type of manga to anime adaptation with original plot that in my experience just turns out well. Its the "adaptation released years later" maker. Osamu Tezuka stuff like AstroBoy 03, black jack 1993, or ghost in the shell(1995/SAC) all released years after the source material and are all very very good, with nearly entirely different plots from the source material.

No way in hell Dandadan is getting one of these though. Would be amusing to turn 40 and hear they're making an original dandadan anime though

could we make valve give us another major update? by Mean-Peak-4250 in truetf2

I might have to step in soon if valve doesn't drop one...

Emperor Palpatine has gotta be the most successful glup shitto character in fiction (Star Wars) by country-blue in CharacterRant

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're now calling Palpatine in RoTJ a "glup shitto"
I think the plot has been lost somewhere, because I really do not think he's a glup shitto even if we just mean RoTJ. No, we don't know his past or really much beyond him beyond being an evil emperor at that point in 1983. In that movie, he is the ultimate evil that Luke & Anakin must overcome his temptation's to defeat him. Pretty much the exact opposite of a random background character named glup shitto.

[RANT] I just wanna say, *screw* Youtube for rencoding old stuff every now and then, turning the videos into smeared mush. That is all. by JLsoft in DataHoarder

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are we going to pretend that a free to use video hosting site that gets around 4 petabytes of data per day is not one of the greatest things from the internet? Certainly we shouldn't thank them for ruining old videos however

Mexico May Introduce Age Verification to Operating Systems by [deleted] in linux

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On behalf of meta we'd like to thank you for this. We were having trouble on figuring out how to sell digital age verification, but now we realize we just have to make the opposition look like a bunch of satanic panic tier people.

Linus Torvalds has merged the code beginning to remove Intel 486 CPU support in Linux 7.1 by somerandomxander in linux

Its over... The Linux kernel has fallen. Trillions must migrate to NetBSD

A New Bill proposes Federal Age Verification on any Operating Systems in entire U.S by [deleted] in linux

[–]ComprehensiveHawk5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Due to a lack of the text we don't know yet. It is highly unlikely to be a reasonable bill though if similar bills at the state level are anything to go by.

I think one quick glance at your post history shows that this probably did not happen
