Aren't user agents just a plain text header? Couldn't a malicious agent just spoof a legitimate one?

You are aware you can just replace the drives right?

Yup that's why internet archive is a thing, a site should not be forced to host their content forever but the hivemind in lemmy has a hard on against any and all corporate entities and they'll justify any kind of over reach as long as it's against one

I've blocked more subs and people than what I have subscribed to. I don't agree with the lemmy hive mind when it comes to politics so I had to block every person and sub that pushes a political agenda in order to enjoy the platform, it took a while and new subs and/or people show up now and then but now my feed is just the things I want to see.

Sadly that also ment blocking a lot of subs that would have been interesting had not 95% of the posts been actually pushing a political agenda instead of being either news or a discussion about something non political

I'd love to play D&D but I don't have any friends sadly so I have to stick to BG3 lol

The time I flipped off vlakith I think I just got a game over screen without much explanation so I just chalked it up to some half assed divine power thing. Now it makes more sense

I can change songs from my steering wheel and I own a 2008 Volkswagen Gol which is the third world country version of the golf 2 more or less

You can keep your shitty touch screen I'd rather just have the physical buttons and Bluetooth

Ive never had any issues with it (other than the microphone not working anymore but the stereo itself is a refurb)

Ah but it doesn't violate the conventions if we convince people it's not torture but rather medical treatment!

It felt like an old wise tale until the end. Everyone knows the freelancer is some new guy from a consulting firm that had never programmed in that language and will make the weirdest decisions and give you code that is both full of bugs and makes no sense

The concept still persists, normalizing stuff having backdoors shouldn't be a thing. The government will do as government does but we shouldn't just think it's always safe and let them know we're okay with it

What about breeding porn?

While I understand and partially agree with your sentiment, the problem is tik tok just casually deepfaking people in general without their consent and without being clear about it.

Specially relevant for Americans since it's a Chinese company doing it. They could literally have deepfaked influencers running political deestabilization campaigns on their platform and no one seems to care

Yeah having worked in a call center for 3 years I always find it amusing when people think these issues are related to a certain industry when in reality it's just the core essence of capitalism calling for infinite growth in a finite market
