Someone should make a script that prevents your computer from viewing files if you've had it for less than 18 years

[–] camelbeard@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

My Google account is older than 18 years, yet they still want me to verify my age for some youtube videos.

Next thing you can only store files on government approved servers. Storing files locally will be illegal. To protect the children!

I see you've heard of onedrive :D

[–] CeeBee_Eh@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It even uploads all your files and deletes the local copies for you!

This is off topic but I have never seen a negative downvote. Is... Is that like an upvote but with more steps???

[–] rovingnothing29@lemmy.world 52 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think you have to right click the page while hitting alt-F4 to expose a warp zone.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 68 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Please don't do this.

Every use of warp destabilizes the zone and eventually warp will be impossible altogether in the unstable zone, possibly the whole quadrant.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (4 children)

And then they just dropped that entire plotline

~~It's something to do with how Piefed interacts with Voyager. Never seen it on my Lemmy account or on the browser version of Piefed.~~ boy do I love being immediately proven wrong, this post is currently at -1 both in Voyager and on browser https://piefed.ca/post/114465

Does it still say -1 for you? For me it's a positive 1

[–] pentastarm@piefed.ca 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Ah, it does indeed now have a positive 1 in the downvote. You'd think the implementation of ActivityPub would have that be consistent.

Submitting my selfie like...

[–] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 week ago (2 children)

A capture of an ASCII art of an edited drawing from a photo taken more than a decade ago... If it's intentionally part of the message... Damn I get philosophical about it...

sudoers getting renamed to grownups

[–] LolaCat@lemmy.ca 89 points 1 week ago (3 children)
hddsx is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Yeah, he's also been working on misinformation campaigns to try to hide that fact. Be really careful who you accept presents from this Christmas. Person with long beard sitting atop their throne of cables and holding a huge power bar like a staff. Likely in an old server room. Captioned: "this is who all your failed sudos get reported to"

As someone who hasn't apple'd in over a decade, I thought this was real

[–] i_am_hiding@aussie.zone 9 points 6 days ago

As someone who has only linux'd in over a decade, I didn't even realise this wasn't Linux until I read your comment.

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Same here. Once my iMac G3 and 2nd gen iPod Touch shit the bed, I was out. My parents are mac people and frequently ask me for help with random, outlandish issues on their Macs (since I'm a "computer person") and I'm usually at a loss.

[–] tisktisk@piefed.social 3 points 6 days ago

Are you me?

[–] xia@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

IIRC, it opens a gui modal asking if you want to give the terminal permission to read the folder. Not quite the same, but still weird and jarring.

Reminds me of the age verification in Larry 1. You had to answer some pretty hard trivia questions.

[–] Regna@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

And you didn’t have a search engine at your disposal then. I had to get hold of the purity test from Usenet to understand some of the stuff in LSL.

[–] Hasherm0n@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

My friends Dad had this game back when I was a youngster. For the longest time we thought the trivia was the game.

I completely support that. Bash porn can get pretty interactive.

I don't assume anything, I just repost stuff from 40 years ago. ;)
