WEER OLL GUNNA DYE
TBH I fail to see the significant difference between this and a function declaration.
Stallman was right
I wonder what state FOSS replacements for Adobe software would be in if a significant percentage of Adobe users used their subscription money to donate to FOSS replacements instead.
stopthatgirl7 and reddfugee are two I remember seeing a few times.
John Perry Barlow was right

Is there any hope at all left that governments might one day leave us on the Internet in peace?
Excellent. Now do Dissenter.
In languages that distinguish definiteness (e.g. English) usually if you’re talking about a “kind of thing”, you can use either the definite or indefinite form and make sense. Only if you’re talking about a specific thing does the distinction matter: “a mirror” = a mirror I’m now introducing and you don’t know about yet, “the mirror” = the mirror we talked about before and you already know about; but either form can mean “mirrors in general”. There are slight stylistic differences what’s preferred in what contexts depending on the language, but in German too you can say “in den Spiegel schauen”.
there are many people in German-speaking countries with the last name “Deutsch” too
At least voters who don’t turn up are harmless. If all the people who voted for EPP-affiliated parties just didn’t turn up instead, we’d face far fewer problems.
LLMs aren’t virtual dumbasses who are constantly wrong, they are bullshit generators. They are sometimes right, sometimes wrong, but don’t really care either way and will say wrong things just as confidently as right things.
Does the average voter just not care at all about anything actually important? What is even going on here?
Nonnative: I definitely unable to come.

Most of these bans are not about banning those books in general, they are about not making them available in schools or public libraries. The government can decide what to promote in its own institutions. People can still get those books from elsewhere: they can buy them online or in physical bookstores.
I am so impossibly glad I’m no longer a minor and have no plans to ever have any children. Incredible how adults wanting to control young people’s lives is a phenomenon that is just not dying out.
As for bills to limit “addictive algorithms” blah blah blah: https://www.eff.org/cyberspace-independence kthxbai
as someone whose only escape from real-life horribleness when he was a preteen and early teen was the Internet: how about you stop wanting to control other people’s lives and mind your own business and trust others (yes, even young people) to know what’s good for them and what’s not
Beside everything else it is certainly nonfree proprietary software. I prefer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Neue
Is this really such an obscure term in English? I definitely remember hearing it in school here in Austria, perhaps in the context of the November pogroms of 1938, but may have been from other contexts too; I don’t remember the details.
Most domain and web hosting plans expire when no one pays to renew them.
One thing you could do is put your work under a free license. That would allow people to copy it which should make sure that your work will be preserved by others.
There is currently no implementation of web standards that is under a more permissive license than LGPL or MPL. I think that is a gap worth filling and if I recall that is what Ladybird is doing.
