As age-verification bullshit becomes more common, I am determined to simply not participate in any service or video game that requires it. The day I see the prompt, is the day I leave.

Maybe the government’s hope is that I stop participating in society, but I assure you that I will not. I’ll find or build alternatives, and refuse to comply with bad law.

I hope you will, too.

And as a silver lining, maybe the weird internet we end up creating as a result will suck less than the current one.

Überall die gleiche Scheisse.

In Hamburg wurden Leute beim Plakatieren für den feministischen Kampftag von Antisemit*innen angegriffen. Diese Übergriffe von autoritären Linken müssen aufhören.

Unsere Solidarität geht nach Hamburg! Wir sehen uns am 8. März auf der Strasse.

When did you stop posting on X?

Person A: When its owner made nazi salutes.

Person B: When it became a production and distribution channel for images of child sexual abuse.

Government: We're still posting there.

Has anyone heard anything from Apple regarding the safety of X, given that it is a porn generator on demand?

They seemed to be very concerned about it a year ago:

Die Spitze des BSW beschwert sich darüber, dass Abgeordnete aus der Partei austreten und trotzdem ihre Mandate behalten. Lustiger wird's heute nicht mehr.

To spell this out clearly, the reason RAM has quadrupled in price is that a huge quantity of RAM that hasn't been produced yet has been bought with money that doesn't exist to populate GPUs that also haven't been produced to go in datacenters that haven't been built powered by infrastructure that may never exist to meet a demand that doesn't exist at all to make profit margins that mathematically can't exist while economists talk about this thing they call the "rational markets hypothesis".
