  • I'll just leave this here and let you folks make up your own mind about child exploitation.

  • Oil surges above $110 a barrel; Trump says 'small price to pay' for defeating Iran

    Jump

  • It's adorable that so many people believe he cares about them. Trump appeals to every born loser that remains a legend in their own minds

  • US state laws push age checks into the operating system

  • It has never been about protecting children. It's about surveillance and control.

    Children who grew up teaching themselves because nobody had time to teach them often become adults who are extraordinarily competent and quietly resentful

  • First they came for the Communists

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a Communist

    Then they came for the Socialists

    Because I was not a Socialist

    Then they came for the trade unionists

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a trade unionist

    Then they came for the Jews

    Because I was not a Jew

    Then they came for me

    And there was no one left

    To speak out for me

  • Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store

    Jump

  • Ugh God. I remember that "Magic Gate" bullshit when the PSP launched. They started a trend with the Walkman and they're trying to get lightning to strike twice. Never could do it though. Good.

    Those greedy assholes need to engineer and innovate in other areas.

  • It's almost as though Valve provides a valuable service and respects their customers. Rare traits in the corporate world. Answering to a board of directors is a hell of a lot easier than answering to shareholders.

    Enshitification hasn't struck there....yet.

    Jump

  • I just commented the same thing. I disabled what I didn't want at startup and have had zero intrusive prompts from unnecessary Windows bloat.

    I'm still holding out hope that Linux finally becomes a mainstream OS one day.

  • Microsoft Copilot to hijack your browser... for your own convenience

    Jump

  • I installed Windows 11 with a local account, disabled trash like OneDrive and Copilot and haven't had any problems with them coming back.

    Any market share that Linux can claw away from Microslop is always a good thing.
