[21:49:48] also their sense of humor around there is not great [21:50:15] and by “not great” I mean “mostly just making fun of marginalized groups and people they don’t like very much” [21:50:27] but enough venting [21:50:39] back to uh… wiki stuff [21:53:46] I have never seen one single petition o that site succeed [21:53:57] Its just a front to provide an illusion of democracy. [21:54:11] Every time the response is “the government has no plans to X” [21:54:39] bro you’re literally meant to work for us [21:56:23] ugh [21:56:33] now i'm curious [21:56:57] ur just petitioning for a response [21:57:08] morbid curiosity and that jazz [21:57:59] Welp [21:58:10] Theres a reason most of the top 10 apps in the app store are vpns now lol [21:58:17] HMMMMMMM [22:08:17] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1399513821806203033/bafkreihmjek3g4rs4urz252gihqrqd6blczujerlxgiclws4hkeqkx2olmjpeg.png?ex=68894650&is=6887f4d0&hm=c58934fc140f35c3319d6c3b2c55cec679f12f67b22847b4002c432224b43fd8& [22:08:19] this may be the funniest Facebook AI slop I have ever seen. Bury me sideways in my coffin, brother. Let my dog see [22:09:11] ( https://bsky.app/profile/thesleeperssleep.bsky.social/post/3lv2hhndjr22a ) [22:09:22] please do not [22:09:24] wheres the rest of him.. [22:09:26] you shall not recover [22:09:42] 🪚 [22:11:02] I remember when we used to recognize "think of the children" as the disingenuous, bad-faith argument it has always been [22:11:17] https://tenor.com/view/wont-somebody-please-think-of-the-children-think-of-the-children-think-about-the-children-children-the-simpsons-gif-20004023 [22:11:23] the most insulting part is their awful MOTDs are using MY TEMPLATE [22:11:37] half of that wiki runs on my infrastructure [22:11:54] though the added benefit is that none of them can actually run a wiki [22:12:07] [1/2] Some more 😛 [22:12:07] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1399514786286403727/bafkreihxvr3h5jz3trkb4lnmeizolxtq3lr6vugdeojwnpsmk6y4nt357mjpeg.png?ex=68894736&is=6887f5b6&hm=c33254afebb47cea387218c32840711b3699c648a8265d635843245f90daf721& [22:12:10] so they’re stuck with however many MOTD slots I left them with, among other things [22:12:44] just a heads up that these images are ai generated [22:13:18] recommended reading: https://aworkinglibrary.com/writing/toolmen /nm [22:13:22] That's what I said https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/615786602454581249/1399513831725727936 [22:16:26] ah [22:16:31] got it, I wasn’t there for that :P [22:16:51] no worries [22:19:43] [1/5] but hey, the government pinky swears they will not abuse their newly-obtained powers: [22:19:43] [2/5] ``` [22:19:43] [3/5] Ofcom will take a sensible approach to enforcement with smaller services that present low risk to UK users, only taking action where it is proportionate and appropriate, and will focus on cases where the risk and impact of harm is highest. [22:19:44] [4/5] ``` [22:19:44] [5/5] God I hate the UK [22:20:44] yeah, that's the biggest govt "just trust me bro" I've ever seen. 😦 [22:21:35] My biggest bet on a path forward is WMF carving out concessions that benefit us all through the courts. [22:21:53] ofcom is independent [22:22:00] "independent" [22:22:04] it's a bit like the BBC [22:22:16] hopefully [22:22:22] yes, we treat our independent stuff like independent [22:22:25] I have to see how their cases are doing [22:22:40] well, case [22:23:04] I dont' recall for certain, but I think they also filed in AUS for their flavor of OSA. [22:23:54] probably, I know for certain their blog post mentioned a case number for the UK one [22:25:15] Ofcom is not fit for purpose. Non of the UK regulators are.
