Before you ask, the accent varies based on diet.

  • Way too many politicians seem waaay too comfortable abusing their power to stay in power and flagrantly disregard the people they have literally sworn to represent.

  • These are just movies I've probably seen more than 3 times in no particular order, they aren't all necessarily masterpieces (though some are):

    Everything, Everywhere, All at Once

    Princess Bride

    Blade Runner / Bladerunner 2049

    Idiocracy

    Interstellar

    Spaceballs

    Clue

    The Other Guys

    Dr Strangelove

    Airplane! / Airplane 2!

    Terminator 2

    Kung Pow: Enter the Fist

    Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

    Home Alone

    12 Monkeys

    Inception

    The Iron Giant

    Trading Places

    Star War: Backstroke of the West, The Third Gathering

  • A History of Violence was pretty underrated. Barry Lyndon bored the hell out of me, but the lighting was very impressive from a technical perspective (they actually used candles and a super low aperture lens for some scenes, no additional lighting).

  • TOU doesn't supercede law, but this lawsuit is probably bogus anyhow (then again UK can have some crazy laws and their judicial system is weird).

  • They're probably going after Valve because they have more money.

  • Matte finish and/or anti-glare should help

  • It might be a problem with Lemmy, I had a similar problem posting from Mbin but the devs for Mbin said it was on Lemmy's side. Mbin was trying to figure out a temporary work around last I heard.

  • Finally leaving club pedo? Little late...

  • Let's stop all this data theft right now then, yes? For all AI?

  • Are we great again yet?

  • Pretty much!

  • Yeah, they're trying to force VPNs to block shit: What are they doing about X? Fuck all.

    Doesn't mean they're good at what they're trying to do, but you can see where their priorities are based on their efforts.

  • Watching other people play sports is usually boring as hell to me, but I still hope the VPNs tell Spain to fuck off.

    Also, it's pretty telling how they get right on top of this super fast, but the literal Nazi propaganda and AI CSAM generation site X was met with, well let's call it a lackadaisical response.

  • I ditched my old insurance company the instant I contacted them and got a broken "response" from an AI agent: Lemonade is now dead to me even though they were the cheapest last time I got quotes.

  • You really can make it illegal if there's the political will to do so, but it's a hot potato, so the likelihood of of the practice being formally reigned in is unlikely. You make fruit of the poisonous tree absolute and create laws that make illegal search or seizure kill investigations without the possibility of future charges for a given criminal act.

    Obviously that would also have practical drawbacks as well, but it is certainly legally possible.

  • It definitely is a legally acceptable practice in the US, but I can't speak to other countries.

  • Yes but that doesn't answer the question of whether it's an accepted practice in the EU. I'm also not so sure it isn't somehow codified into law, in the US there's precedents supporting it but IDK about other countries.

  • I know what it is, but that doesn't mean it's an accepted practice in the EU. I don;t really know much about how their law works, which is why I asked about it.
