Vimms Lair is getting removal notices from Nintendo etc. We need someone to help make a rom pack archive can you help? (slrpnk.net)

Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be...

interdimensionalmeme,

That is incorrect. Partial seeding means they seed the part they downloaded, end of story. There are no downsides.

interdimensionalmeme,

What is stopping anyone from selling a laptop with linux on it and as little support as they do for windows ?

interdimensionalmeme,

Just turn off windows update. Security people are catastrophizing to justify their jobs, ignore their siren call.

interdimensionalmeme,

I turn off UAC and defender too, those are basically spyware anyway. Even minimally competent should have no problem by just not downloading viruses and staying behind NAT.

interdimensionalmeme,

Because that’s 4% that is competition free. Not counting the majority of users who only need a browser and won’t be able to tell the difference anyway. Just call it anything but linux, so they have useful search results if they have any problems.

interdimensionalmeme,

Never saw one at costco or wallmart or staples.

Deepfake Laws Forget Sex Workers (www.404media.co)

In the seven years since I first wrote about deepfakes, before there was even a word for the AI-powered face-swapping technology, people have finally started to realize that sexually explicit deepfakes meant to harass, blackmail, threaten, or simply disregard women’s consent have always been the primary use of the...

Deep fake laws add nothing, we already have libel laws.The real problem is people who would demean you for having participated in pornography, these people are who this law is for. It exists solely to justify their hate.Those people, deserve to meet the pointy end of the stick.

interdimensionalmeme,

There are many more ways to make things worse than ways to make things better

interdimensionalmeme,

As much as X can get bent The eradication of human sexuality from mass media culture is a clear sign of intense rot at the heart of our civilization. How can such a fundamental element of thr human experience can be so conspicuously absent for almost all art and media. A clear sign of the omnipresent censure and purge of dissenting opinion in our supposedly “free” society.

interdimensionalmeme,

I should have clarified, freely available mainstream media and art. I don’t watch ads so I can’t say for sure, I don’t consider advertising to be part of art and media, more like a form of pollution on top.

From what I’ve senn tge most you might get are suggestive allusions to sex. It’s just not treated as the everyday part of life that it is.

By comparison, it is entirely overshadowed by violence and gore.

interdimensionalmeme,

Another arbitrary imposition.

interdimensionalmeme,

I’m not really including paywalled media in this. I’m not subscribed so I really don’t see any of what you mention. What I’m seeing in my browser windows is almost completely sterile. The only place I see sex, is places that are ONLY about sex. There is no meaningful mixing.

interdimensionalmeme,

You make a good point, it"s definitly part of the outline of that social wound.

Some people are so fragile and the topic that they consider mere exposure as an attack or harrasement.

And whoever is most fragile seems to the decider for everyone, of what is forbidden.

Really a powerful position to be in …

interdimensionalmeme,

So maybe just an old tradition that hasn’t died out yet ? A sharp edged piece of societal flotsam that we’re still dealing with ?

interdimensionalmeme,

His only religion appears to be financial technofeudalism. I guess the religious fundamentalists aren’t lucrative enough for him to enforce their commandments.

interdimensionalmeme,

Yes, you get, tge few depictions tgat remain are either empty allusions to sex or grotesque, farcicsl refetences.the real thing is absent. It ends at, largely inaccessible movies almost only about love and then nothing and then parody like www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_qj8cSk38o&t=210And we know the people who excised that middle portion and I don’t understand why we let them get away with it.

interdimensionalmeme,

Wait, that’s awesome, so much stuff we could watch together for the first time and talk about it until the sun comes up !

interdimensionalmeme,

Can we also elect a smartypants nonretiree ? Is that even an option ?

interdimensionalmeme,

Nah, it’s mostly anti plastic propaganda. However, being fat and sedentary, now that is a real problem.

interdimensionalmeme,

They used to be synonymous. Of course now we have conbtributor licenses

interdimensionalmeme,

Making shit up IS a feature of LLMs. It’s crazy to use it as search engine. Now they’ll try to stop it from hallucinating to make it a better search engine and kill the one thing it’s good at …

interdimensionalmeme,

Well they do are all bad. I’m not sure what anyone expects, it’s like living with a murderer. They’ll never respect you and every breath of oxygen they take is an insult to your life.

Time for an ICQ for the Fediverse?

Looks like ICQ is finally shutting down, just as interest in retro internet tools is growing.

interdimensionalmeme,

Thanks for suggestion I will try that one

interdimensionalmeme,

Bookmarks are very clunky to use. Plus now as you close the tabs, you need to delete the bookmarks or move them to the “done” folder. Very labour intensive and flow breaking. I really wish there were something better.
