@ramonfincken @catsalad Servers: I run an operating system too!
Will California obey the law and inspect all the data centers in California on Jan 1st 2027?

yeah, if we just wait, that day you describe will surely come.
Soms wait for times to change, others seizes it forcefully and act, because the best way to predict the future is to create it.
If we dont built the alternative and look for others who do to team up and support them to grow a strong alternative network that produces the future we want - we will for sure NOT get the future we want.
protesting might block studf temporarily, but not produce a better alternative
@serapath @catsalad I agree with you that the future will be what we decide it to be.
But FOSS is one thing. Chip and PCB design and production is another league, that we as a free and independent intellectual community cannot achieve that easily.
We can only create a market niche by supporting it where we can, hoping that some company will follow our call. But even then those companies will have to comply with national regulations.

@serapath @catsalad One day you'll probably will have to present your ID to buy hardware, binding the machine id to it, as for sim cards already. Buy new hardware now, not only because of Hormus, Taiwan and BigTech stressing memory prices, but because we all will have to wait several years for the autocratic regimes to grind each other up to the point where they crumble from their own ignorance.
@Amorpheus @serapath @catsalad wait a minute... I bet you're just saying this to create a price spike in computer hardware, you must have shares in RAM or disks or something. Let me just take a look at what the market's doing ... THE PRICE IS WHAT, NOW‽‽‽ Never mind...

@catsalad@infosec.exchange I can't wait to do things like disable my EDR by saying I'm 133 years old.

@catsalad Yeah. That age verification bullshit is just stupid -_-
Boomers who don't know shit about computers should stick to their abacuses, hell sticks and stones even, lol.
@reallylazybear @catsalad yeah, sticks and stones can only break our bones. Unfortunately, they have something much, much more dangerous — words.
-
@ramonfincken Oh, nevermind.. They are discussing it
@catsalad @ramonfincken Reading through this concept, I’d like to remind everybody that constantly polling a big wide honking bracket can be used to pinpoint exact details. Replying “under 13” every day until today (you now reply “13-16”) means today is your 13th birthday. There is zero point in adding brackets when services can already determine your exact age using this method.
California needs to stop writing hopes & prayers and start writing laws which include expert guidance.
