IPv6 genuinely made some really good decisions in its design, but I do question the default “no NAT, no private network prefixes” mentality since that’s not going to work so well for average Janes and Joes

Bruh I poked the hexbear once when a dude was arguing over exactly how to classify the Uyiger genocide. Something about how “it’s not a genocide, but just an ethnic cleansing” they really didn’t like when I pointed out just how weird of an argument that is. Fascists usually short circuit pretty fast under redicule

Congratulations, republicans, you’re killing your own small towns by being insufferable and refusing to allow any culture to exist then you wonder why your kids refuse to move back to the area…

The last time Congress managed to pass a federal consumer privacy law was in 1988: The Video Privacy Protection Act. That’s a law that bans video-store clerks from telling newspapers what VHS cassettes you take home. In other words, it regulates three things that have effectively ceased to exist.

Let’s be real, JD Vance was picked by the party to be the adult in the room who can actually get Project 2025 passed under Trump since Trump doesn’t care about Project 2025 and just wants what’s best for himself at that moment and to be a petty little bitch

Also worth noting that Vance has no personality. When asked in Eau Claire, WI “why should a voter want to have a beer with you” he responded “uh I uh haha um I actually like beer haha” (he also tried to sidestep a question about Tim Walz by saying “we aren’t talking about Minneapolis policy, were talking about Wisconsin” while literally standing 1 hour’s drive from Minneapolis

And when asked “what makes you smile” instead of any sane answer he answered “insane questions from biased reporters like you!” Then followed it with waffling about how he loves his job so much while forcing the fakest smile you’ve ever seen

Clearly many of the commenters here have not supported average smartphone users enough to know how they will blindly click the first thing that looks anything like what they think the technician is asking them to click. Remember, the average person does not have a laptop or desktop computer, they only have a phone (and only the one because they probably traded their old phone in with the carrier for a pittance when they got their current one), and they often do not have internet service at home and simply rely on mobile data from their unlimited data plan.

For those dark pattern email boxes I like entering things like admin@[website that’s serving a dark pattern mailbox] or marketing@website because 50% of the time it just gives me whatever without any trouble and the other 50% of the time I clear cookies and consider if I really need whatever they’re gating behind harvesting my email…

Brilliant pick. This is the kind of energy that will get the Midwest to drive this national election and bring enough casserole for everyone at the potluck
