It will be December 31. They'll put up a gigantically sized image on their website of the logo of the game. I'm talking, like, a gigapixel.

"After long development time, we have finally managed to release 'Metroid Prime™ 4: Beyond'. The Metroid Prime™ 4: Beyond video game for the Nintendo Switch system, Metroid Prime™ 4: Beyond - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition video game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system and Metroid Prime™ 4: Beyond - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack for the Nintendo Switch 2 system have been delayed to a later date."

Have a banner with information on why it is blocked, and have the only accessible page be of the Online Safety Act. Then, make that page list what counts as "(teaching) circumvention methods" and say that teaching others how to do those things is illegal. If anyone is truly interested in seeking knowledge and learning, they will be able to figure it out elsewhere

Wow, what an unfortunate coincidence. TIL.

I'm with you with the fact that I don't believe there to be any serious botting attempts, but I didn't need a digital ID to sign from the Netherlands.

I think they will verify with the municipality of the person who signed whether they actually exist. Theoretically you could sign on someone you know this information for, but I think IP logging would burn you pretty quick if even one of those is bogus/duplicate.

Also, I don't know whether such signatures would be counted before any verification would take place

Just today I witnessed someone working from home who had to move to a new system at work. Part of the instructions involved deactivating their 2FA app, which was apparently still needed for a later step in the process. They were supposed to use a backup phone number in the account to receive a text code to sign in, but, of course, there's no backup phone number in their account.

If only their job used this scheme instead. sigh

Good to hear that. Scrolling through some recent posts here rings enough bells that the possibility would haunt me in the back of my mind for a while. But where to even start?

Thanks for sharing

Holy shit, that has a name?!

... Am I supposed to seek medical advice now or what?

I thought it was real until the part where he gives away the US to Canada and Greenland. Had that not been in there I would've fallen for it

Little update in case you were wondering. After the news of kernel 6.13 being out I decided to look up when that would be available on Fedora. I found some mentions of the display bug being resolved in 6.12.9, and it's true! Now my saga of switching a parent to Linux can truly begin!

Did you ever end up getting that Brother scanner to work?

The post was made in 2020. I think it's likely that this was a PC that already ran Windows 10, which probably auto-updated itself as they love to do

 

From my very limited understanding of recent news, Trump's stance on the conflict is going to be decisive in how peace is going to be negotiated one he takes office. One of the probabilities is going to involve the outcome where Ukraine can't join NATO, which would risk Russia trying to take more of Ukraine in the future.

So, this is where my totally-not-stupid-whatsoever question comes in. What if NATO were to occupy Ukraine similarly to how Russia is doing (that is, without Ukraine really doing anything to provoke it) but, unlike Russia, doesn't do any actual war stuff. Just walk in, say "it's ours now ;)", and have Ukraine take it without there being a fight. Without there being any intention of actually changing anything. Just one day most of Ukraine's taken by NATO, business going on as usual.

If American negotiations were to conclude that Russia can only keep what it captured and Ukraine cannot join NATO, then only all of Ukraine that didn't get captured by Russia or NATO, say, 10km (just inventing numbers here) of land between the two's occupied territory would be prevented from joining NATO. That way, future Russia would "only" be able to capture a remaining "10km" (which is not how area size works, but hope you get the point) at most. The majority of the country would effectively have the NATO protection it wants (or, if I'm mistaken, replace NATO with any other military alliance Ukraine would want to join).

Now, seeing as this clearly isn't policy (it were, it could've been enacted during times where Ukraine was said to be gaining territory back rather than losing it again), I'm obviously missing something in this "analysis". That's where you come in, dear reader.

 

Came up with this late at night. Not while being anywhere near a laptop though.
