If someone investigated Trump and “found nothing”, that makes me question the investigators, not the one ordering the investigation.

That is unintentionally hilarious… and correct.
The so-called President of the United States, ladies and gentlemen.


I wonder how (or if) they handle the tasks of the other R4000. Specifically stuff like ATRAC audio decoding.


How convenient. “You’ve secured our future earnings with your labor, now feel free to go die in a ditch while we reap the rewards.”


Americans. Who did you think I was asking? The inhabitants of Cape Verde?
“I mean, in his defense they were Tusken. Nobody cares about those, right?”


Are y’all completely insane or just insanely complicit?


Because of course he does.


Oh, for fucks sake…


“Look, I dunno about geopolitics and just where is the “European Union” on a map anyway? I looked, and it doesn’t say that anywhere, so it’s clearly made up. Just tell me who the most treasonous corrupt cunt in European politics is, and he’ll have my support. It worked great as a criteria here, so I see no reason why it wouldn’t work abroad. Bonus points if he rapes kids too.”
They are not mutually exclusive, I assure you.
Any chance anyone’s up for sharing a pod? I need a hug.


Flaming nutcase.


Not as much as the rest of us will be cheering his. Around these parts, there will be fucking in the streets on that joyous day.


That’s why a said static webhost, i.e. paying for the ability to serve files, not run scripts or manage the webserver configuration. Sure, the hosting provider could be made responsible for the implementation, but now they have been encumbered with the burden and liability of policing which hosted sites needs this bullshit enabled and which are just a blog about making strawberry preserves or something.
Point is, it’s complete and utter twattery of the highest order. Never mind enforcement, I don’t even see how it would be reliably or consistently implemented.
And all that is in any case absolutely futile, because there’s still the matter of people being perfectly able of obtaining those self-same ISO’s from any number of other sources that are even more difficult to police, like the ones I originally mentioned, and about a thousand more where they came from.


Well, good for them. I’m not Australian, get to vote for Australian lawmakers or host websites in Australia.
Is Australia going to pay every single website admin for the burden of implementing this wonderful magical logic to detect a given source IP(v4) belongs to a VPN provider? What about IPv6?
If I host a simple static website on a static webhost in Denmark say, and provide some otherwise perfectly legal OS ISO’s for download, how would I implement any logic at all? Why the fuck should I be subject to Australian laws?
The cookie acceptance of the GPDR was already bad enough and ruined so much of the Internet with no appreciative improvement of the privacy of visitors. If every Tom, Dick and Harry are going to place spurious demands on every website, it’ll do nothing except raise enormous barriers to entry and ensure that only huge players with the capacity to comply with demands from legislators all over the world will even be able to “legally” run websites at all. And then we can’t have an Internet or FOSS for that matter.
Maybe legislators should stop writing half-baked laws the consequences of which they apparently cannot comprehend.


That may be the best way to deal with the potential legal liabilities introduced by this unmitigated abject idiocy.
Good thing everybody can still torrent whatever they want from where ever they want. Or use IPFS. Or IRC DCC. Or Usenet. Or just a VPN.


Agreed, but with AMD apparently jumping on the “AI” bandwagon and Intel being… Intel, we aren’t exactly spoiled for choice right now. Besides, Nvidia’s financial shenanigans ultimately hits everybody right in the DRAM equally anyway.
I guess that must be cool for people able to afford an nvidia product supported by drivers newer than 580.xx.
