  • Discord main use case is real time chatting and PieFed doesn't replace that. It does work better as a support venue, but that's not an alternative to Discord.

  • UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks

    Jump

  • Its legal team contended that the trademark explicitly conveyed the absence of dairy milk in its offerings.

    Conversely, lawyers for Dairy UK argued that the phrase failed to clarify the product’s milk-free nature, instead referring to a specific demographic of consumers.

    You can't not link it to "milk" directly as that was part of the legal argument.

  • Technically it doesn't matter because of US dollar being global reserve currency and they can just print money without any consequences, but that is shifting now and once countries dump US treasuries US economy will be fucked like never before.

  • Discord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDs

  • That goes without question, but my comment was directed at ID services, not Discord itself.

  • Discord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDs

    Jump

  • If their claims are true then it would help. They claim that they process everything locally and only sends the check to the server. But again, there is literally no reason to trust any word they say without being able to verify it ourselves. Proprietary systems should never be used for this.

    Also their liability avoidance doesn't inspire confidence. Discord outsources the liability to k-ID and k-ID outsourced the liability to Privately.

    Lai was convicted in December on charges of sedition and conspiracy to collude with foreign forces. He had pleaded not guilty to all charges. The collusion convictions carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.

  • Windows 11 is finally killing off legacy printer drivers in 2026 — and it’s going to shake up a lot of older hardware

    Jump

  • The article is clear about that.

    In these cases, the company recommends "contact your printer manufacturer and update to a supported printer driver or another current printing solution."

    And that is effectively death for all of them. Most of the old drivers are not distributed by vendors since we are talking about the era when CDs were included in the box. There are archive sites for them, but that is beyond most people technical abilities.
