RE: https://infosec.exchange/@david_chisnall/116160637051672728
the question you should be asking yourself is not “what's the best way to verify the age of every single computer user on earth”
but rather “why the fuck are we trying to verify the age of every single computer user on earth????”
and the answer to that is: fascism
stop. complying.
How about some ducks? Blessed are the creatures who have no idea what humans are up to.

Thinking about replacing my personal computer (an old MacBook Air) with a mini PC. I don't think I need a laptop for myself and I am warming to the idea of trying to use Linux on the desktop again. I wish I had a better idea of how inexpensive I could go and still have performance that didn't annoy me. A Steam Machine sounds like it would be great, but also like the pricing is way outside of what I'm thinking.

Yes. Thanks for the instructions!

This was my submission (below), if it might help anyone through the Comment section. (the first part taken from the AAS website, the second part of course, from my own perspective.)

I support the following resolution:
AAS Resolution on Light Pollution
Adopted 4 January 2017, Revised 7 June 2025
https://aas.org/about/governance/society-resolutions/light-pollution
Astronomy has benefited from dark skies for thousands of years, but now the rapid growth of artificial sky glow – as fast as 10% per year – is jeopardizing all of humanity’s ability to see, study, and enjoy the cosmos from the Earth’s surface. More than half of all major observatories worldwide now operate under skies that are significantly brighter than natural darkness. Abundant scientific research demonstrates that light pollution also disrupts natural ecosystems, harms human health, and wastes energy.
I will add my own words here: If our Almighty God had wanted a second sun to shine upon us, he would have put it in motion during His creation.
I hope your hearts and minds will weigh this carefully. We will all be judged someday on our stewardship of the one home we are blessed to inhabit, and the star-packed heavens above.
Thank you for your consideration

I'm finally starting to get to the point where I don't just open CWs be default, and I don't let my curiousity get the best of me with CWs where the contents of the post would likely set me off.

It is absolutely wild that the SP500 closed up today.
Honestly, Apple should not even do any WWDC session related to App Intents, unless they get their own house in order on Shortcuts support in their own apps. Especially Mail and Messages.

Debian 13 got rid of default support for the ancient "US" time zone names like "US/Pacific", which were already obsoleted by geographic zone names back in the last millennium. At the time this caused a certain amount of blog and forum noise from people who insisted that using zone names like "US/Pacific" instead of the geographic zone names was perfectly fine and safe and why did these useful names need to go away?
Well, today British Columbia announced it will soon stop doing seasonal time changes. To everyone who has anything running there and who insisted on "US/Pacific" being perfectly fine, I say: good luck, have fun updating your systems, and this is precisely why you should have been using geographic zone names (in this case, "America/Vancouver") all along.

74% of you never open tickets against #RustLang, and another 24% of you do it less than once a month.
It validates my rule of thumb that for every ticket there are 20 people that will voice their problem on social media without filing a ticket and 100 that are affected but didn't feel the need to tell anyone.

Did you know that with #Fediprofile you can enable verification?
If your Fediprofile links to your Mastodon account, and your Mastodon account links back to your Fediprofile, both will show as verified. Simple, mutual verification.
And you can go beyond the 4-link limit. One link to rule them all.
Check out the project here: https://hub.vocalcat.com and if you are willing to get your hands-dirty and test, send me a private message for an invitation code.
