Sex work is work. They’re not being coerced. There’s no more or less dignity to it than being a waitress or checkout clerk. It’s no more or less disgusting than being a hospice nurse or a garbage collector. It’s just a job. Jobs are not

They did, but it turns out that people’s most common social activity/interest is sex-based. Omegle wasn’t known for making BFFs.

It’s not exploitation unless the participants in the deal are being coerced. You can’t make a solid case for employees being coerced to work for an exploitative employer outside of company towns or non-functioning labor markets; neither of

Re 1: No, I don’t run paid internet services, only free ones. I just think it’s silly when people distribute software and pretend it’s free software but slap an anti-commercial-use EULA on it. Not lying: The AGPL plainly violates freedom 0

Why the nonfree AGPL? Are you seriously worried that someone is going to fork this and make money with it, given that anyone else could vibe code another one in a few hours?

You’d think; that was why I made the list. Unfortunately it doesn’t actually work. It rewrites to exclude one tell, and it includes 3 other ones.

I hate being outdoors 99.999% of the time, so much so that I will blanket declare "I hate the outdoors". Not just "the great outdoors" - I don't like sitting on a patio, in the shade, in what others call "perf

The unconditional loyalty and love is what disgusts me about dogs. Unconditional renders it meaningless and worthless.

My life got a lot better years ago when I became honest with myself about the things I like and dislike, regardless of whether or not they are "in character" or even "normal". I really, really hate being outdoors. I don

My prediction: “It’s not a “search” when an AI looks at the stored database and does sentiment analysis, because an algorithm doesn’t violate your privacy. It’s only a “search” after it’s flagged and an actual human with human opinions sees

Then the feds come in with a national security law and bypass all those state/local protections and slurp it all up into an AI-powered Palantir database, the very existence of which is classified. Suddenly you’re the victim of paralle

Chrome is an HTTP client that accesses webservers at specified addresses. Antigravity and OpenClaw are HTTP clients that access webservers at specified addresses.

Technically speaking, they haven’t been able to. There’s really no way of stopping someone using an alternate client if it appears to the server the same way. The only reason video game cheating is more difficult is because it uses custom

It's their OAuth token, it's not being stolen. It's just being copied from one place on their computer to another. This is no different than a competing browser importing your localStorage and cookies from Chrome on first

Telling your users they can't use certain software to access your HTTP API is exactly the same as telling people they can't use certain browsers to load https://google.com .

I don’t disagree, but can we really claim to have the rule of law if there is a class of people who can flagrantly violate criminal law and court orders and suffer zero criminal consequences?
