How bad would running Windows 10 past support be exactly? Seems like most vulnerabilities should have been patched by now.

weirdest use of that meme format to date

also the irony of 145 IQ man tripping over his own grammar

The mindblowing part of it for me is that a company the size of Disney don’t seem to have the appetite to own and run their own servers.

These are the same people that managed to get two counties redistricted so that they could own their own city, and to this day literally buy the entire electorate by giving housing only to people who vote the way they’re told to.

Even now it mostly sounds like the sort of line someone in a Black Mirror episode would say

It sounds like the sort of garbage you hear shortly before “anyway it’s not a democracy, it’s a constitutional republic”.

You’re being condescending, as well as sucking the air out of the room by making demands without actually explaining yourself.

If you want to explain what you think people are getting wrong about fascism then go ahead, but at the moment you’re just being a bit of an arse whilst contributing nothing.

Can’t remember who it was (b3ta? popbitch? penny-arcade?), but I recently saw a comment by someone who’s been running a website since the turn of the millennium, and they said that fully 99% of the links they posted two decades ago were no longer valid.

To really put that into perspective, you have to remember that for most sites to get linked to from a popular site like that, meant that it was usually something of value that would have had a lot of work put into it, and that people found interesting or useful.

The fact that you’re trying to drag completely irrelevant shit into it about paedophilia, shows how staggeringly weak the pro-OpenAI argument is.

Shit. Forgot where I was. My post is sucking Elon’s dick and excusing Tesla for fuck ups.

Unironically yes, you’re all over this story flooding the zone with shit to try discrediting the whole thing, despite having nothing of substance to offer beyond asserting that nobody knows anything except for you and Elon.

You’ve posted this in multiple places without explaining yourself, and your subsequent follow-ups have also just been questioning the person’s credentials and offering nothing of your own. You’re a classic example of the bullshit asymmetry principle, flooding the thread with low effort trolling.

My Grandma learned to cook in postwar Britain when rationing was still in full effect, and refused to learn a single thing since. I don’t miss any of it.

They’re not being expected to design a whole new car from scratch though, are they.

I read the article, and I’m calling bullshit on the excuses they’re putting up. The fact that they usually prefer a five year cycle, does not mean that it’s difficult to change the handles on the doors in two years if you need to.

I’m calling corpo lobbied bullshit. 2 years is enough time to put a normal door handle on your car.

Again you’re just factually wrong. The website operator has a wide degree of control over what can appear on their site in the admin panel. They even have the choice of which platform to go with if they don’t. And even if they didn’t, it’s still an argument that relies on “everyone does it ergo it must be ok”, which wouldn’t stand on its own terms either.

To repeat, I’m not supporting the Online Safety Act, but this whole argument seems to rely on the fictional notion that innocent website operators don’t know where their data packets are being sent, which hasn’t been true since the 1990s.

By your logic, any website with advertising is operating in EVERY country worldwide.

No. Every ad platform out there has the advertiser choose what region to advertise in. Nobody wants to pay to advertise in countries where they don’t sell their products. Likewise websites have the option not to serve countries they don’t want to comply with the laws of, and indeed many do this exact thing.

The whole argument being presented is being intentionally naive about both the technology and the law. Y’all are arguing based on how you WANT the world to be rather than how it is.

If 4chan make revenue by advertising UK goods and services to UK users, then they are very much operating in the UK. It’s not reasonable to make the argument that you should be able to do business with a country and opt out of its laws simply by running the physical servers abroad. We don’t tolerate it for wire fraud or CSAM, but nobody’s rushing out to defend the sovereign rights of child abusers and scammers.

I don’t agree with the Online Safety Act on its own terms, but this is a dud of an argument.

A lot of things that appear to take off organically by being good, later turn out to have had a big expensive team running the guerilla marketing behind it. It’s pretty much impossible to just make something good and have it be successful on its own merits without someone marketing it.
