Can't wait to use and promote illegal operating systems that do not verify age.

All those AI webcrawlers are going to be in a bit of a pickle...

@catsalad Windows 3.1 running on a 486DX with 4MB RAM FTW!

@catsalad As far as computers are concerned, my birthdate shall be the Unix epoch

@Amorpheus @serapath @catsalad wait a minute... I bet you're just saying this to create a price spike in computer hardware, you must have shares in RAM or disks or something. Let me just take a look at what the market's doing ... THE PRICE IS WHAT, NOW‽‽‽ Never mind...

[knapjack@snac.gruntle.cc]

@catsalad@infosec.exchange I can't wait to do things like disable my EDR by saying I'm 133 years old.

What‽ Someone tell @tubetime! (See also https://monster6502.com/) 🙂

@neil @catsalad I am totally here for the off-grid living, data-was-born-to-be-free vibe. Plus cats.

[gerardthornley@hachyderm.io]

@reallylazybear @catsalad yeah, sticks and stones can only break our bones. Unfortunately, they have something much, much more dangerous — words.

@catsalad @ramonfincken Reading through this concept, I’d like to remind everybody that constantly polling a big wide honking bracket can be used to pinpoint exact details. Replying “under 13” every day until today (you now reply “13-16”) means today is your 13th birthday. There is zero point in adding brackets when services can already determine your exact age using this method.

California needs to stop writing hopes & prayers and start writing laws which include expert guidance.

"Pssst, Hey kid, you want something that'll make your PC run like a thousands times better. (opens a coat to reveal USBs) I got a Mint, Arch, Zorin, Ubuntu, Debian if you feeling up for it I just got Pop!OS"

@catsalad Just be sure to also use illegal CPU hardware that does not have tracking devices built in.

[wtl@mastodon.social]

@Dianora @catsalad Be funny if all we have to do is stop upgrading. 🤣

[dianora@ottawa.place]

@WTL @catsalad BSD in general has not received as much 'buzz' as linux however as linux itself has become a tad more ... commercial we have been seeing a resurgence of interest esp. from hard core linux users. NetBSD runs very well on just about anything including older hardware.

Can't wait to see tech bros prosecuted for using their products to promote illegal surveillance and exploit those who are under age, CatSalad.

@catsalad Coming right you from the home of the Online Safety Act nanny state! Which is just regulatory capture by Bigtech by another name, frankly.

[amorpheus@kind.social]

@GerardThornley @serapath @catsalad Sorry to disappoint you. I don't have any money invested in stock or currency markets. And even if every single fediverse user would buy new hardware, it would be but a insignificant fraction of the impact AI expansion has on the memory market.
