  • This shit makes me want to murder, some times

    Jump

  • One would think, that if these sites and anywhere that applies Captcha at all, that if there were puzzles to solve to tell the difference between Bot or Human. That a human would have a likely chance to mess it up, whereas a Bot or AI are designed to do things flawlessly.

    I bet the creator of Captcha didn't have the thought process to think about that.

  • Yeah um...what future...

    Jump

  • That's sounding like a feasible option. I've thrown myself back into Lemmy itself because I can't take the constant breaking of Kbin and seeing so much potential just trashed about in instances like this.

  • Locked

    The Motion Picture Association will work with Congress to start blocking piracy sites in the US

    Jump

  • Curious, I checked out Chris Dodd and wonder what he's up to. He's a close advisor now to Biden so I'd imagine he's whispering in Biden's ear and whoever will listen, about how much of piracy is 'bad for ya'. In case anyone forgot, Chris Dodd was a major asshole during his 6 year stint (2011 - 2017) with MPAA and he ultimately failed in stopping piracy.

    I don't think this latest tactic will work. Congress couldn't even understand Facebook and they couldn't even hold Mark Zuckerberg of all people, accountable for his shit. Congress, MPAA and all the forces in the world couldn't stop Kim Dotcom. MPAA, ACE and whatever, still cannot shut down The Pirate Bay.

    They'll just keep bashing their heads on the brick wall. The only victories they've gotten in all of the 20+ year decade war on piracy, is that most times, the sites go down because of lack of funding and support. They only take down big sites because they've found weak links or they've found those run-a-mouth pirates who've gotta go around talking shit about pirating to the point where they're a liability then wonder why their favorite service/site is shut down.

  • If you could be any age for the rest of your life, which would you choose?

    Jump
    1. The not too old to be classified old and not too young to be classified as such either. It feels right to me.

  • Would the orange shithead be running for PotUS if he wasn't facing legal troubles?

    Jump

  • The only thing stopping this piece of shit now is death. He'll never see jail. He'll never stop trying to achieve his ultimate dictating fantasies. People can sound tough to him all they like but the fucker seems to slime his way through somehow.

    And the media is too dumb and careless that the reason he's even getting somewhat stronger in some fields is cause they keep feeding attention.

  • No joke. They're the kind of people that have to over-dramatize every damn thing and have explosive reactions to anything.

    Like calm the fuck down, you're not in an anime show.

  • No disrespect to Toriyama-san, but this was Dragonball Z to a tee.

    "THIS ENEMY IS THE STRONGEST EVER! GOKU ACHIEVES HIS STRONGEST FORM!"

    "NO! WAIT! THIS ENEMY OUT OF NO WHERE IS SUDDENLY THE STRONGEST AND GOKU'S FORM IS 1,000X STRONGER!"

    Shounen anime is just junkfood anime, like Bleach. It's got lots of filler, the main guy gets a hundred forms, all stronger than the last, they'll pull some bullshit out of their ass to win the day and give people lots of 'GOTCHA' moments. And a lot of the characters are rule-34 prone.

  • Enriching the avocado toast companies 🥑

    Jump

  • Does the word or context confuse you? Come on, think.

  • Enriching the avocado toast companies 🥑

    Jump

  • It's pretty true.

    The only reason companies are as rich as they are, is because we keep choosing to fund them by buying things.

  • Current situation on FOSS Discord replacements?

    Jump

  • Color me surprised.

    I loathe that platforms treat themselves this way. We see this happen over and over again when a newcomer comes into the field to shake things up. They become, eventually, the best alternative. They eventually become the only thing.

    And all that they turn out to be, are just portfolio fluffing projects to be made into an IPO. Then the enshittification and oh, there is next to no where to go.

    What a world...

  • Reddit Files to Go Public, Reveals That It Paid CEO $193 Million Last Year

    Jump

  • Or moderators.

    Like, how discouraging must it be for them, to learn now that the CEO made $193 million while they do all of the work and maintaining for free?

    But we'll figure out the shills though in time, the ones who'll stay. The ones who'll find it rewarding to be corrupt pieces of shit.

  • [Reuters BreakingViews] Investors will say “OK Boomer” to aging Reddit

    Jump

  • Because it has no business model, lol. What with shitty looking avatars and the community shitting on eachother and themselves by the hour? What business model? lol

  • how did "step" porn become so popular when we did such a good job keeping scat and insest porn out of the mainstream for so long

    Jump

  • The same people who popularized fucking their cousins, of course.

  • Is anyone surprised by this?

    Jump

  • No because this was probably part of their plan to corrode the world.

  • I just want to read the article...

    Jump

  • I'll just assume the article had nothing worthwhile to read. Thanks for sparing my time!

    It seems like all packaged foods do this now

    Jump

  • I'm starting to see some drinks and packages of food even have calories varied. For example, I'll buy a monster java drink of the irish blend flavor. One can will be 190 and another can will be 180. They'll both have the same nutrients.

    We are seriously now beginning to slip in keeping this shit consistent and it worries me.

  • Netflix: Piracy is Difficult to Compete Against and Growing Rapidly

    Jump

  • There was a resounding chorus of "DUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" that echoed across the land as Netflix discovers this reality.

  • You have a magic pill, which de-ages you by 20 years. You can take it once in your life only, so long as you are at least 20. What age — past, current or future — do you reckon is best to take it?

    Jump

  • Probably now, I guess.

  • Film studios demand IP addresses of people who discussed piracy on Reddit

    Jump

  • Buddy, go bitch at the author who wrote the article that plastered all over what we're responding about.

    And my point still stands - they CAN'T prove that those IP addresses would be from frontier. It's a huge whack a mole game they're getting themselves into.
