Indeed. QNX is the coolest OS I ever seen and Photon felt the coolest desktop environment. Although I like XFCE in the Linux context (more than e.g. GNOME), I am sad to see it repl…

I don't believe children need to be guarded from porn and can be seriously harmed by it but if we assume they do - why not just disallow children to use devices and apps made for a…

EU is just rushing into bullshit dystopia scifi with its useless and harmful anonymization and chat control ideas. These just ought to fail and be rolled back. Imagining these succ…

This is a duplicate comment.

Sure - the reason is the want more control over their people, they want to surveil them (hence blocking Signal), they want them to only read or express "correct" texts and prevent …

The grammar is our enemy here. Blocking a website may be Okay. Blocking a person willing to access it is not.

I consider banning it uncharacteristic to such. I can hardly consider a state where people are not allowed to access Reddit (as well as HN, Wikipedia or StackExchange) freely and a…

> "Services" here can be replaced with "control". I'm not super conservative, but social media sometimes do take control over our kids, and ourselves. Perhaps we can think about Yo…

> It is not wrong to regulate social media Yet it is wrong for a government to deny the people to access foreign services over the Internet when they want. That is wrong in the sam…

Blocking Signal or Reddit sounds bizarre for a civilized democratic country. What sense can that make other than denying people the right for privacy of personal communications or …

What we need is stop fighting robots and start welcoming and helping them. I se zero reasons to oppose robots visiting any website I would build. The only purpose I ever tried disa…

This looks amazing except the number of keys seems too small.

It's time to stop blocking crawlers and using captchas and start building web sites that are intentionally AI-friendly by design. Even before the modern LLMs, anti-scraper measures…

Let them run the railroad, let others run the trains.

By the way, I meant "foUr six-hour workdays would", sorry for a typo.

In the EU I've never heard of a single union other than itself. Every time I see the word "union" it's about the US. This doesn't mean they don't exists in the EU, in fact it some …

32-hour workweek still is too much. For six-hour workdays would be a reasonable change. Specifically for the United States - also a mandatory 20-workday vacation (I live in the EU,…

Better avoid living in states (not only American) which claim a right to surveil, let alone decide what takes place within your body. If your state issues such a law - run, it is f…
