There’s nothing illegal about using Tor, which was developed and published by the US Navy and supported by the US State Department. Like other users have said, this is not an exit node which is the only type of node that I would be concerned about running.

Definitely look into I2P which, in a nutshell, is a peer-to-peer version of Tor. Hosting an I2P router comes with no legal risk, too. Hosting an I2P outproxy would be similar to hosting a Tor exit node, so be aware of that.

It’s the New York Times. Even “journalist” in quotes is generous.

US courts have already ruled that AI generated works cannot be copyrighted, so yeah, if you vibecode something, it is not yours to license.

They literally are the far right

That’s not at all what that means, nor does it make any sense.

It’s actually a public sex-jet paid for with taxpayer money.

It’s genuinely way more plausible that Kuwait friendly fired than Iran being capable of downing them.

I’ll come back to this in 4 weeks. See you then 😉

The parts of the economy that would be heavily impacted by oil prices

Literally all of it. https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/06/oilpricesinflation.asp

are already in the gutter.

You’re not wrong. Does not refute my claim though.

Two things that have also failed to manifest, in large part thanks to the prolific state spending following COVID.

We’re still only 3 days into this war. And yet this is already manifesting right now in real life as we debate it on the internet. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/live/stock-market-today-dow-sp-500-nasdaq-sink-while-oil-prices-jump-as-iran-attacks-jolt-markets-235000934.html

Trump’s very obviously not going to do that.

Yes, agreed, this is very obvious. Because Trump does not have control over the interest rates.

oil skyrocketing in price and the economy and stock market taking a huge hit could cause the investments required to prop up the bubble to run out of steam

Including “net” in net positive means that it is more positive than the negatives, so… you’re saying that starting an illegal war of choice with no real longterm plan and bombing children and civilians was worth killing the Iranian supreme leader. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it is probably not really what you meant, but it is what the words you typed meant.

Iranian state media told me so.

Software would ask the OS for the age range of the user (under 13, 13-15, 16-17, 18+). The software would implement content filters based on these age ranges.

The OS is only responsible for requiring the user to set an age and providing the age range to software.

The destroyed buildings don’t regrow in the spring.

Yes you have.

So this is basically just misinformation. There is no age or identity verification as part of this bill, the age is self-reported by the user and you could select any age you want. The bill requires the operating system to have users select an age when creating an account. The intention is that parents will select their child’s age when setting up their child’s accounts on phones and computers, to age-gate them from accessing certain software or websites.

Regardless, I don’t support this feature being mandatory, because it limits parents’ choices. Parents should be able to choose to disable this feature entirely or allow their children to use an OS that does not include this feature, if that is what they feel is appropriate for their child.

That’s why I always run my text through an LLM for refinement before posting it. 😉

Then why won’t you say that artificial insemination IS rape?

Because it is not true.

regardless of how much you try to derail the conversation.

Actually, I’m the only one who has stayed on topic and avoided strawman arguments here.
