Once you realize it’s not “age verification”, but actually “identity verification”, then it’s easy to understand that the real goal is “papers, please” for the entire internet.

And now for my favorite dark programming j/k
What is the difference between a light bulb and a programmer?
The light bulb stops working when it burns out.

@b0rk using, 90s. really just using though. my comfort zone was DOS and any unix boxen around were critical systems for work, so not ideal for learning on. learning properly was in the late 00s with own kit and the ability to break things without major consequences :)

454) Invisibot. The culmination of our research into transparent components. We haven't had chance to figure out a use for it yet because we keep losing it. #SmallRobotsRemastered

another regular reminder: if your organization sends out phishing email tests on the regular - document the sending domain. dump it into virustotal. click on the details tab. Look at the SSL certificate details. More than half the time, they use a wildcard SSL cert. Congratulations, you just mapped out most of their phishing infrastructure because they re-use the same wildcard SSL cert fuckin' everywhere.

Search on the web is now just utterly broken. You can barely find anything using any of the search engines. We need a new player to come in and shake the whole industry up.

I'm so tired. People, I am not interested in reading *blogs* generated with claude, gemini or chatgpt. No, not even ones proofread by AI. Do it yourself. I do not wish to even accidentally click on "one-shotted" dummy projects. Don't show me your AI-generated analysis of anything. Above all, I do not wish to see images/artwork someone prompt created.
I value real content, with all its good and bad quirks, from actual human beings.
Somebody please normalize auto-tagging of AI generated content across all formats - text, images and code so I can blanket ban them from my personal computer.
This is a plead for help I never thought I'll have to make.

How have I lived to the Year of our Lord 2026 without having seen this meme before now?
@gsuberland MX2 Anywhere here, Amazon version because prime-day made it actually reasonably priced. currently 7 years old of use most weeks. wife's MX2 (AmZ version for same reasons) lasted over 6 years of office/gaming use until minecraft ended it this year somehow. managed to replace with same thing.
admission - I don't use their software at all (not sure about wife)
