How about never. In a couple of decades creeping normality will be complete and nobody will ever fight for these rights back because they'll have forgotten they ever existed in the first place.

Yeah, no need to surveil the government insiders giving tours of the capital to now-convicted seditionists. No national security threat to address there...

Comparing the rights we gave up after 9/11 (read: actual rights that we no longer have) to the "rights" we "gave up" during the COVID era (read: inconveniences that right-wingers propagandized about) doesn't se

I guess you would only expect different if you believed the myth that America is a free country that cares about the rights of its people. I didn't expect any different, but I also understand that America is a failed state with an unen

You are really pushing the definition of "victim" by claiming that being in the same space as someone who "isn't their best self" is something that deserves government intervention...

It amazes me how a company can make a decision like this without anyone in the team stepping up and saying "Deanonymizing users will make people mad". It really indicates bad management - That either the decision-makers have enoug

That's literally what the German government is doing. They are giving you back the choice, without the threat of punishment. I get that you're an anarchist or whatever, but repealing prohibition laws shouldn't be something yo

This is Paul Graham we're talking about. The man who on 12/23/2023, for the first time ever, installed a valid SSL certificate on his website. Once you adjust browser settings enough to read the content he publishes, you&#x27

Those are the ideas that he's talking about. Paul Graham is a dinosaur. He thinks that spez's rampant monetization is a great idea, despite the fact that it has outraged the community that gives Reddit any power at all.

Because, in the United States, you have a constitutional right not to be compelled to say something you don't want to, but you don't have the constitutional right to say whatever you want to, especially in the case of a gag order

Ah, the same guy who created Tor2Web with Aaron Schwartz, and the immediately used it to try to sell deanonymized access logs to Tor hidden services to various governments.

Yeah, best to not try to attribute any meaning to this, as it would be bad for Boeing shareholders.

My first thought that was D&D wouldn't be a great system, because you have to put the Hubble Space Telescope into the universe, and that really ruins the fantasy world vibe. With a little effort, you could work this into a Cyberpun

Just visit his Mastodon instance and start scrolling. It's extremely NSFW. I just did it, and immediately caught some sort of Swastika / Serial Experiments Lain meme. If I visit your website and regularly encounter Nazi content, y

I wasn't able to respond to any other comment in your history, because pretty much everything you post is dead. You don't seem to respond to the obvious feedback from that, but somebody needs to recommend that you stop making flip

Eh, the multitouch magic mouse is pretty intuitive when you get used to it. Depending on what you do, it could be an excellent daily driver, but it does tend to have some limitations that can make it a non-starter...

John Dvorak is such a strange guy. His uncle August invented the Dvorak keyboard. He used to be a contributor to early TechTV and ZDnet productions. Now he runs a far-right podcast and Mastodon server that seems extremely popular with Neo-N

These are great points. It would be like if a race of flying / buoyant aliens studied Earth's upper atmosphere, and decided that it wasn't sufficient for life, while ignoring that life isn't really found until you get to

I don't disagree with the assumptions made here, but the conclusion is bad. Titan is likely unihabitable for life as we know it . There are plenty of extremophiles here on Earth that live in places we wouldn't expect life to exis
