              @catsalad@infosec.exchange this is like all the times I told people software patents were invalid in Europe and you can just compile freetype with the illegal code enabled

              except cooler, and better, bring on the new era of hacking lmao

                    Waiting for someone to burst into an operating theatre, and argue with the surgeons who are elbow-deep inside the patient, replacing their lung or spleen or coccyx, about how their operating system needs to verify the surgeons age.

                        What about traffic lights?
                        They used to have PDP-11s running busy intersections in Australia.
                        So that would mean that you'd have to verify your age before pushing a pedestrian button, because you'd be a user of that operating system.

                            I started wondering if my TV remote control was smart enough to have an operating system, then thought:

                            What happens when using remote display software to control multiple computers running different operating systems from a single monitor.

                            Will you have to verify your age on the local computer, then again on each remote one?

                            What happens if you have a multi-boot PC? Separate age verification for each OS?

                            So many questions, so much deep appreciation for the morons who have completely thought through every single ramification of this wonderful new idea; ๐Ÿคฎ

                              we need to focus hard on building serious open hardware capacities, because if ppl will opt out of proprietary operating systems which verify age, they will move age verification into hardware, so we need to avoid proprietary hardware too. ...better to start immediately supporting that and sharing options, because its not a questiin IF, but only WHEN they will do that.

                                      @catsalad Seriously, what is even the enforceability on any of this? Also, whats stopping all of us from saying we are 30? Does it actually tie to any sort of identification, or are we just effectively creating "kids accounts" ala Netflix?

                                        @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.

                                          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
