I also had the same experience (not just with Internet - I had unfiltered access to basically any and all reading materials), and I felt that on the whole it was a massively positive experience for me. I feel really sad for all the children

You'd just have to pay more to convince people to do the jobs they hate. It does mean that nurses might end up getting paid more than software engineers, but why is that a bad thing?

US Civil War was a civil war in name only. For all practical purposes, it was an interstate conflict. And yes, riots can be caused by other things too - e.g. religious riots. But whatever it is, people have to care a lot about it, enough

Microsoft is the one the TFA refers to cryptically when it says "the Faster CPython team lost its main sponsor in 2025". AFAIK it was not driven by anything on the tech side. It was simply unlucky timing, the project getting in th

The point is that you still need uBlock, this can't be done via DNS filtering. I expect this kind of stuff to become more common in the future if adblocker usage grows. It might be CDNs doing that, too.

It does indeed work pretty well today, but they have already developed ways to circumvent it. For example, serving ads from the same domain as the main page.

People riot when they can't make ends meet, not when they can't install an app on their phone. Rioting is very costly.

That's why we need to spread the word and get more people using adblockers. It's not even a hard sell - the difference is so striking, once it has been seen, it sells itself, even for the most casual users.

It has already become normal on mobile, which is where most users are. You're not wrong - this is a very bad outcome! - but I'm afraid the battle has already been lost.

Some European countries were trying to reduce their dependency on proprietary American software for decades now, with varying success. The recent events have likely accelerated this trajectory, but it is not new.

Realistically I don't see how Valve can avoid this. They want all those games on Steam Deck and the new console. Game devs want KAC. Therefore Valve can either provide them with some way to implement KAC - which effectively requires a

PvE shouldn't need it either, and yet games routinely ship with anti-cheat applied to everything (including single player). I rather suspect that the reason for this is the current gaming economy of unlockable cosmetics that you can ei

TFA explicitly describes those devices, and how anti-cheat developers are trying to handle this. But the main point there is that this setup is prohibitively expensive for most cheaters.
