A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.
If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.
Rules
- Follow the aussie.zone rules
- We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
- Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
- Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

Maybe someone still in possession of a copy can decompile it, neuter the shutdown code, and open-source the rest?
It must be harder than it seems, Louis was encouraging people to make their own version last year to no apparent avail. Makes me wonder how the pedophile guy figured it out in the first place.
Being a good programmer is harder than it seems. Lots of people can code, but many are just script kiddies. Even I consider myself at the lower bounds of what it means to be a software developer - and I don’t consider myself to be knowledgeable in low-level hardware in the least.
Some people, despite their odious natures, manage to unlock talents and skills that others can only dream of. It’s no different than trying to separate a troublesome artist from their art.
