Illegal content is already illegal.

I think it actually is more complicated. There are anti obscenity laws in the United States where these companies (Steam and Itch.io, but also Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal) are based. The way those laws have been applied have been mostly permissive in the recent past, but I think there’s reason to believe that this could change quickly. We may find ourselves in a situation where the highest court decides that this has all been illegal this whole time. Procedural and legal norms are feeling a bit shaky these days. People wonder why payment processors would bend over backwards on behalf of some group of aussie weirdos, but maybe being on their good side isn’t the concern. Maybe it’s that they’re trying to self regulate to get ahead of any government action. Collective Shout may just be highlighting to them the most risky instances, making it so that they have no plausible deniability with regards to the content they are processing payments for.

Not develop their own hardware, but contract an established manufacturer to do it for them. Which is good, they have no business doing hardware!

And/or Intel. (I can dream, right?) Hell, perform a miracle Moore Threads!

Ross is not my dad

Its a vexingly pedantic point.

Its what made me buy a pixel phone.

A Pretty Big Company? I think they are beyond that classification.

In a vacuum that makes sense, but this is going to be used to rationalize/justify some nasty shit. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to brace for that.

Clair Obscur is running more smoothly for me on Linux than Windows. That doesn’t always happen, but it’s always satisfying when it does.

Not really, no.

Cargo cult moderation

I bet I could. 😎

A mandatory part of today’s safety features is a digital rear-view camera. Typically, this view pops up on a modern car’s central infotainment screen, but the Slate doesn’t have one of those. It makes do with just a small display behind the steering wheel as a gauge cluster, which is where that rearview camera will feed.

Need room for more than two passengers? Slate has an SUV upgrade kit that will bolt onto the back of the truck, adding extra rollover crash protection and rear seats with seat belts to match, all in a package that’s easy to install at home.

They aren’t mentioned in this article, but it does evidently have airbags. Where are you getting this info?

Well, I want smart boots

I don’t think angry mobs are a common thing here, but setting that aside-gun owners tend to shoot people who are hunting them. Angry mobs are not brave.

I was doing it for a while and it usually worked, but the thing is you need email to always work. I’ve since moved to paying Migadu to host my email.

Vance really is such an obviously cynical piece of shit. Most politicians are of course, but he really takes the cake.

I really don’t think there’s anything wrong with a respectful and well-intentioned correction.

Yeah, that’ll fix it!

That hasn’t been the case for a while now. It also never truly mattered, the code is available for you to modify.
