  • It really does not matter if they have comprehensive description of anything. It is always about defensibility. Sure, maybe you are technically not breaking the law, but maybe you also don’t have the money to fight the other legal team, so you are basically fucked.

    If someone comes to the creator of said software, saying they’ll get sued - I’d rather implement something that barely works than fight for year(s) in court.

    Not defending anything being merged, mind you. Glad we ended up with non mandatory field (that barely counts for the legislation) than full blown age verification. The moment it will be mandatory AND verified, I am gone.



  • Jokes on em, I don’t read work emails. Partially because I refuse to dedicate any time of the day using Outlook, especially in a web browser, because the oh-so-wise IT departnent does not allow to use a different client, and as I can’t use Outlook on Linux, fuck em.

    And no, IMAP or POP3 are not available. Trying to login via Thunderbird just triggers a message to contant IT dept to allow me using it. It’s Teams or nothing.














  • I’ve been seeing articles like these for the past at least 10 years, it is always “New China brrakthrough, can make drinkable water from enriched uranium” or some shit. It is never scalable, sustainable, or usable, and is never really widely, used or adopted. It is always technology, pharmaceutics, construction, or energy related.

    They like to fake their image to the world and have been trying for very long. The only thing they succeeded at larger scale is oppresion, tracking of people, and selling knockoffs. Of course, mass manufacturing cannot be omitted.
