A law saying Linux must do age verification at account setup misunderstands what Linux is. Linux doesn’t have “account signups.” It creates local system users, not online identities. No email, no central service, no universal setup flow where age could even be checked. Most Linux systems don’t even have a human at the keyboard. Linux runs servers, routers, cloud VMs, containers, IoT devices, and embedded systems. Many installs are headless, automated, and finished in seconds. Who is supposed to verify their age — the server? Linux also isn’t a single product. It’s open-source code. Anyone can remove an age check, fork the installer, compile from source, or deploy via scripts like PXE or cloud-init. There is no enforcement point by design. It works offline by default. Air-gapped networks, hospitals, military systems, and critical infrastructure depend on Linux functioning without internet or external identity services. Age verification assumes connectivity and centralized trust — Linux explicitly does not. Even if you forced verification once, it’s meaningless. Images get cloned, VMs get spun up, containers get copied endlessly. Verification doesn’t scale — copying does. Forcing age checks into Linux would also weaken security, adding new code paths, dependencies, and identity data to systems that prioritize minimalism and control. You can regulate platforms. You can’t regulate open-source infrastructure like Linux at install time. That’s simply how Linux is built.

A player has never been more out at first base.

- surgeons who game make 37% fewer errors - gamers make accurate decisions 25% faster - 10hrs of gaming slowed cognitive decline by 7 years - action games improved reading in dyslexic kids as much as reading programs - 3D gamers scored 12% better on memory tests

Posting AI slop when you have one of the nation's top journalism/creative media schools is a disgrace.

Man one bad start in the NFL and this picture is going to be everywhere

Having an existential crisis cause I went "wow, that was a long time ago"... and it was my birth year...

I hate being a basketball school

The concept of “conference fans” is so foreign to me. I root for Alabama, and situations that can positively benefit Alabama. Could not care less about the B1G beating the SEC, and it’s strange if you do.

Getting ready to watch the ball drop!

Less than 24 hours before Harding and Ferris State meet in the DII national championship game… The son of Harding’s head coach reports an offer from Ferris State. Amazing.

Some ugly sweaters (and even uglier t-shirts) in attendance tonight, showing school and holiday spirit! Let's go Stars Basketball!! #StarsSoftball #StarsAthletics #TheRightWayToPlay #BattleoftheStars

what if i said i wanna delete em all ..

Dude played his butt off last night
