[05:15:06] [1/3] the first paper is the original Rx [05:15:06] [2/3] i didn't read it closely when i got it, so that's why i didn't recognise it ^^; [05:15:07] [3/3] the second is the repeat auth [14:36:52] https://vxtwitter.com/ToonHive/status/1947349976247357715 [14:53:19] the blast of nostalgia [14:53:30] also interesting to see the new animation style [14:53:51] his cheeks... [21:09:18] just a heads up [21:09:48] to anyone here following my YT channel (because I know there are a couple folks here that are) [21:10:11] if YouTube keeps this age verification BS up I am leaving by the 13th [21:10:29] so please follow me on @groupnebula563@cuddly.tube on the Fediverse instead [22:09:36] Let it be known that if the censors come knocking and force us at gunpoint to do age checks, I want us to do this: https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1548205 [22:10:23] only if they literally like hold the board on the end of a rifle though [22:21:50] con of E: i cannot sleep in because my dose is at 8 am [22:22:05] ...ask for money? /j [22:22:18] yes /uj [22:22:30] better that than asking people for IDs or shit [22:22:45] way less data collection on the Miraheze side of things [22:24:23] either you pay to use miraheze or pay someone else for death stranding to use in facial recognition to use miraheze 😔 [22:26:02] it doesn't even have to be paying even [22:26:33] just charge $0 or charge some small amount and then cancel it, I know that's possible [22:26:41] free trial of miraheze except it's forever [22:26:43] basically just check the user has a card [22:27:01] I mean having a card doesn't mean your 18+ [22:27:19] would also troll payment processors and I'm all for that [22:27:38] revenge for itch.io 👿 [22:27:41] depends on cuntry [22:27:47] a person raised that on newsground [22:27:51] eeyup [22:27:59] Ah maybe [22:28:03] debits are possible in the UK for under 18s but credit shouldn't be [22:28:06] there's options for a credit card in AU for < 18 iirc [22:28:14] obv need parental consent [22:28:16] wtf how is that legal [22:28:25] parent's signature [22:28:27] i _think_ [22:28:30] you can get in credit hell as a minor?? [22:28:37] hopefully my sleepy ass brain isn't misremembering [22:28:42] american dream! [22:28:47] truly [22:29:00] I have a card since I'm 16 and know ppl that do since like middle school, but we don't use credit card here [22:29:09] Almost only debit [22:29:28] shoutout maestro users [22:29:35] if those still exist [22:29:40] i am misremembering fortunately [22:30:11] but anyway does the fact that like 3 under-18s have debit cards as a minor disqualify it as a "highly effective" method of age assurance anyway? [22:30:24] if I remember right we don't even know what that mean [22:30:28] i had three debit cards before i was 18 [22:31:21] ugh, now i have to wait for the brain fog to go away [22:31:37] uber does that [22:31:51] ostensibly to "secure your account", but i'm p sure that's for carding prevention [22:33:33] arguably it could be more effective since you can't use videogame screenshots to bypass like the "age estimation" bullshit AIs [22:34:35] There's no way to know for sure except by going directly to an office in person tbh [22:34:44] look, i know card fraud is illegal [22:34:45] buttttt [22:35:05] I mean, if you're willing to burn a stolen card to open an account in Miraheze... [22:35:08] rip all the trans men i guess [22:35:08] Even using like official services account like your tax account is not 100% perfect since your password could be stolen [22:35:26] looks at my free gcp trial from a gender ago [22:35:27] this is the problem with the "highly effective" term [22:35:36] we don't know where the threshold is [22:36:05] Yeah [22:37:09] actually, how do you even know lol, looks? [22:37:27] Physical id card [22:37:31] oh [22:37:57] imagine doing the bloody 100 point system to get an account [22:38:15] bonus points if you require certified copies and them to be posted [22:38:20] looking at you, my health record [22:38:53] What's that ? [22:39:05] [[w:100 point check]] [22:39:05] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_point_check [22:39:17]
