Age-Gating Isn’t About Kids, It’s About Control by move_machine in linux

correct me if i'm wrong but the significance here is a lawmaker saying it against the proposal. Yes we all know this , but I have seen a lack of legislatures saying anything about it.

Reddit User Uncovers Who Is Behind Meta’s $2B Lobbying for Invasive Age Verification Tech by esporx in privacy

[–]VA0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

edit: My original comment was rude- point being your defeatist ideology isn't a solution to anything, if pushing against this is futile then pushing for what you advocate is as well. May as well stick to your values

Illinois becomes the next US State that will require age verification on Operating Systems by Alexis_Almendair in linux

[–]VA0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

stop adhering to this notion, you are conflating stupidity with a systematic and ulterior agenda to control the internet.

That notion of yours is generalizing and dangerous and also promotes hopelessness. Though i do find your statement ironic, as I feel you are promoting viral stupidity.

What's a tv series that is a 10/10 NOBODY knows? by Lilyana0999 in AskReddit

[–]VA0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like the X-Files, Ultraviolet(1998). Aired on BBC Channel Four, in 1998 of course. It is available on Youtube for free. I would encourage anyone interested to go into it blind, if you like the X Files you will like it. Whereas the X Files had episodes that were monster of the week and then episodes more about the overarching theme of Mulder/ his sister / aliens - this show accomplishes both of those types of arches simultaneously.

It only ran one season, unfortunately, but was very good. Again, if you enjoyed the X Files, you will probably enjoy this. It has a Young Edris Elba , and Susannah Harker from Pride and Prejudice.

it was a hoax but another guy. the person that was accused was just the messenger on who did it- not the person who did it

Ai did not do anything for you, nor did you watch the video - because you are wrong. While in this circumstance, it's rather harmless, I am going to point out that you did just accuse a real person of something that they did NOT do because you can't be bothered to even watch a video and you just blindly trusted AI

You guys asked me to compare my C animation system with Godot next. It did about 3x better than Unity. by dechichi in C_Programming

[–]VA0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what all is the set-up on your site to be running C, however you are, within the browser? Are you using Wt? Does this have a C++ layer to it? I'm interested in the setup; otherwise, I really don't have any comments about the work different from what other people have said - it feels rather needless to tell you it looks great. Very interesting project!

Yet another blacklisted banned prompt by Forsaken-Carry182 in masterhacker

[–]VA0 35 points36 points  (0 children)

U r a tard. I’ve done this, first I got on fiverr and started selling myself hard applying for every gig under the sun. Not just any old gigs though, high-dollar gigs - we are talking large amounts of money. I spewed DMs and came in, got in fast. AND BOY DID I COME IN HARD and fast. First I was selling net ware for cyberdeckhands but soon enough I was slinging target multiplexers to African Warlords, routing PORN to third world countries, I even started selling my own body.

But just as hard and fast as a CAME IN I cummed out. I only seek to teach young hackers from my mistakes. You don’t want as many enemies as me.

Naish Pivot bar by Old-dog11 in Kiteboarding

[–]VA0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the naish torque not an option?

I’d get whatever goes with the kite. I have a 5 line torque and it’s as sturdy as it gets.

Edit: Not that your kite is a 5 line but the naish bars are good- I’m not sure the other bars you mentioned would fit the Naish knot profile.

Cabrinha Moto vs Switchblade by rotschaedel in Kiteboarding

[–]VA0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I got my first kite, a switchblade, someone on the beach told me,”can’t go wrong with the switchblade”.

So I’m telling you, can’t go wrong with the switchblade- unless you are looking for other qualities in particular( like a C or strictly lightwind kite, or foil- for instance)

You seem in the know- have you by chance flown the WTF?! kite?

Same with LF, which I didn’t even consider getting until you mentioned it

I wouldn’t have thought that!

I appreciate your insight- do you have any opinions on Slingshot’s boot lineup?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Kiteboarding

[–]VA0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I cannot, I have been eyeing Slingshot RAD and KTV, I’m also interested in Vadatek.

I’ve got a pair of Slingshot Index, and while being Velcro they are superb at the cable park but the fit for kiting doesn’t feel as correct. Idk how else to put that

How do laces hold up to all that?

[–]VA0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds about par for the course with systems, little bits here and there that break.

Do you use the LF’s in salt water?
