I’m a dad, I love retro (especially Atari ST), I build stuff, AI helps me get shit done, and I believe in a thing called love.




Muslim and African immigrants commit a lot crime here in Denmark.


systemd has merged a commit by dylanmtaylor to collect and store users's birth dates in compliance with Brazil and California age verification laws -- which has been a controversial topic in Linux communities the same dev (dylanmtaylor) tried to push a similar change to archinstall (Arch Linux), which has, so far, been denied -- but the discussion was reopened after being closed for a while there are also reports of commentators having their posts removed or even being banned from the r/linux subreddit for posting opposing views to age verification laws and compliance how can the subreddit of the leading OPEN-source project be so CLOSED for different perspectives? makes you wonder... reddit is a terrible place for open debates, i'm more than convinced at this point

SystemD has added birth date storage in order to comply with Brazil and California Age Verification laws. Let that sink in. A Linux init system now handles Age Verification. github.com/systemd/system…

If you’ve got a bit of spare cash in your account, you’re feeling a bit bored and you want to build a city in the classic style – there’s a special offer on SimCity games on GOG. Yeah, I know, the links will cut off my reach. I don’t give a shit; X does it to me even without them.

Something nobody asked for, but you're getting anyway. My powermonger remake. Actually, I did some work on it yesterday.

I find it frustrating that none of these "guardians" of Linux and open source have reacted to the OS-level age verification law: - Linux Foundation - Open Source Initiative - Free Software Foundation - Software Freedom Conservancy

@ZoomerHistorian people bang on about Reestore distancing themselves from "eth nats" but really restore have changed some peoples outlook. before Rsstore came along i was hoping for a brutal civil war. No im back on the political track.



I’m compiling together a list of which Open Source Operating Systems (Linux, BSD, etc.) do (or do not) plan to comply with new Age Verification laws. I need to track these for the purpose of reporting on the story, and I figured others would find having a list handy as well. If you’d like to contribute, feel free. Will be adding to the list as more systems are confirmed as either implementing or opposing Age Verification. github.com/BryanLunduke/D…
