But… they are fractions.
Or something great happening the way he’s going.

Ask Experienced Devs@programming.dev•Could online age verification be done in a way that protects privacy and autonomy?
03·6 months agoAbsolute privacy? Not at all, the fact that I’m over 18 is personal information, you’ve all invaded my privacy a little bit by reading that. Absolute accuracy? Not at all, I have no idea how anyone would ever prove for sure someone’s age. Any potential solution is going to about compromise. The real question is: How well can we verify someone’s age well enough while preserving as much privacy as possible?
The best solution I’ve heard of, that hits a pretty good compromise, is giving the local device some indicator of the user’s age, and allow applications or websites to perform a limited resolution query of that value, along the lines of which of several age brackets does the user fall into. The birthday can optionally be provided when the device is configured; a parent can set up a device for their kid, setting whatever value they want for the kid’s age. A good implementation would make it quite difficult to extract or change that birthday value without admin rights, which the parents would keep.
If this sounds a lot like the laws in the news from California and Colorado, that’s because it is. I think that they’re stupid laws, but they describe reasonably good features for software. That law making effort should have been put towards banning the incredibly invasive and somehow also incredibly inaccurate use of AI image processing for age estimation.

news@lemmings.world•Elon Musk found liable for misleading investors during purchase of Twitter
0·6 months agoHe’s going to have to pay damages, reimbursing investors for the loss caused by his BS.
Because it is a class action case, it is not clear what amount in damages Musk will have to pay to thousands of shareholders, many of them institutional investors, but it is likely in the billions. The jury awarded shareholders between about $3 and $8 per stock per day.

Linux@programming.dev•Systemd’s New Feature Brings Age Verification Option to Linux
0·6 months agoThey’re not even really covering their asses. They don’t make an OS, they make a small but important art of many distros. They’re providing a clean, standardized way for Linux distros from RedHat to Ageless to comply with the law if they choose to. Some distros will comply with the law to the letter, others will not comply out of spite. At least the ones that comply will do it in a standard way.

Canada@lemmy.ca•B.C. to end time changes, adopt year-round daylight time
0·6 months agoThe legeslation has been in place for years, but we held off because we didn’t want to be out of sync with Washington, Oregon, and California.
From https://news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2026AG0013-000209:
Recent actions from the U.S. have shifted how B.C. approaches decisions that merit alignment, including on time zones.
Thanks Trump :D

1·1 year agoI couldn’t find a dumb TV, so I got a smart one didn’t give it wifi access. Every time I turn it on, it shows me a clock that’s wrong and I think “Not so smart now, are you?”. It’s a perfectly functional dumb TV.

4·2 years agoTerraria is an absolutely wonderful game, I’m in the thousands of hours as well. It’s probably worth a warning for a first time gamer that it can be hard to progress without a bit of guidance. If you want to stumble in the dark for a while, that’s awesome, just go for it. If you want a little more guidance, check out the official wiki (https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Terraria_Wiki) and especially its getting started guide.




The black ones are sooo good. I fry up some Chinese pork sausage, kimchi and an egg to go with it. My wife doesn’t let me eat them when she’s home because the spicy smell hurts her eyes.
