France, obviously. YouTube has turned into a cookie cutter slopfest a long time ago anyways.

I disagree, it gives me the ability to apply first principle knowledge unhindered by whatever fuckass idiotic idiosyncrasies a particular cloud platform considers “good design”

AWS, Azure, GCE, Alibaba Cloud - all the same crap, different names and slightly different jenga towers.

It applies to surprisingly a lot of crap and it’s a good substitute for where we can’t put automation in yet.

Yes, but what was the task that they were working on? This tells nothing.

That’s the “how” we’re wondering about.

Spoken like a true engineer. Law is very inconsistent and illogical. Otherwise we’d have “Law Engineers” instead of Lawyers.

Ah okay yeah that makes sense

Was missing the “make it more difficult for a thief to find the AirTag and remove it” part.

Cheers!

For anyone who’s concerned about the whole “oh we need to check the age of the user”

Here’s a simple solution: the ad industry is welcome to not profile its users.

Don’t get distracted though:

> Furthermore, the reporting procedure is to be extended to include all content suspected of being unlawful.

Operating keyword here: “suspected”

What happened to due process?

Okay I think this is one of those situations where we should harness our collective autism and prevent the gTLD from going through. As others have pointed out there seems to be a mechanism for objecting.

Just purely from common sense perspective why the fuck should .lan be something that’s an internet/public TLD? Hello? LOCAL Area Network?

While we’re at it let’s update a few RFCs. Plus I don’t want to find out what organisations use .lan for their networks and what will end up leaking to the internet as a consequence of this.

The ‘ol letter of the law vs spirit of the law.

The law permits the behaviour, don’t like it? Change it.
