Age checks creep into Linux as systemd gets a DOB field - Lemmy NZ

Everyone should set it to 1970-01-01.
Ive been born since 1900-01-01 for a long time now.

Me too!

Although someone (steam maybe? I don’t remember) updated their system and won’t take it anymore. So now it’s 1930-01-01.

You should try it. It’s like I’m 30 years younger!

Born just in time to not be able to be a nazi!

Yes, I know the Hitler Youth existed…but I don’t hold that against those (at the time) children. They were being conditioned to support a system they didn’t understand.

I figure anyone younger than 20 is too young to be blamed for all that crap. The brain stops developing at age 23. So I don’t expect an 8 year old to hold a very good grasp on international politics and wars. Especially in an age where an hour nightly AM radio broadcast, and a daily morning newspaper were your only source for news.

happily updates its birthdate to 2018-01-01 you can’t blame me now. Take that, woke people.
