No but you see those are people

Yeah but they can at least buy their bullshit, i.e. “we help gut overspending and Make America Great Again”. What’s the supposed mission here? “We help you fap to people that don’t want to he fapped to”?

Oh god I had not even thought about the last part.

Their staff is either 100% male, or a disaster waiting to happen. Probably both. I would not feel safe there that’s for sure.

the Wernher von Braun club

LMAO. Except even dumber, they’re the von Brauns of the “fake illegal nude” world

For some people, definitely. But finding an entire startup worth of those people is (IMO) more difficult/unlikely than at least some of those starting there and talking themselves into not feeling guilty (if not for us, someone else would do it; we are not being as terrible as those others would be; it’s a tool, it’s not our fault people are applying it to minors etc.!; …)

I can not imagine the mental gymnastics of people working for Clothoff

Consider this me asking

Matrix fits the bill.

Unless you don’t like the federated nature.

Fair, maybe remove the question altogether, and have dedicated GOV endpoints for specific attestations?

While that’s true from a technical perspective…

How/where do you keep the certificate? If you either need an app for it, or need to manually install it on your device, most users would probably be out. The benefit of my suggestion is that you need absolutely nothing except a way to authenticate with GOV.

2. is a Problem with all of these, that’s for sure.

I fjnt get the part about the info service tbh

As long as your browser saves an auth token or something for GOV somewhere, all of that can happen without user interaction.

I think that at the bare minumum, the PORN<->GOV connection must not occur. How about this (simplified):

• USER visits porn site
• PORN site encrypts random nonce + “is this user 18?” with GOV pubkey
• PORN forwards that to USER
• USER forwards that to GOV, together with something authenticating themselves (need to have GOV account)
• GOV knows user is requesting, but not what for
• GOV checks: is user 18?, concats answer with random nonce from PORN, hashes that with known algo, signs the entire thing with its private signing key
• GOV returns that to USER
• USER forwards that to PORN
• PORN is able to verify that whoever made the request to visit PORN is verified as older than 18 by singing key holder / GOV, by checking certificate chain, and gets freshness guarantee from random nonce
• but PORN does not know anything about the user

There’s probably glaring issues with this, this is just from the top of my head to solve the problem of “GOV should know nothing”.

Got a simple brother laser printer. Duplex, BW only, works flawlessly with Linux and as a network printer.

4-5 times a year I’ll need to print 10 pages. Add an additional one every two weeks.

The printer definitely paid for itself in convenience.

I mean, yea. But it is also easy to buy them, they’re everywhere and fairly cheap. The Galbani one is also just 1€ or so more expensive.

To be clear, making your own is fantastic, it’s just not anything I’d want to do 2x/week

Mozzarella (talking about the balls of fresh mozzarella you get sealed in with their brine).

Can’t do store brand anymore after having tried Galbani.

Holy fucking shit I am not alone. Oh god. It’s real. I’m not alone.

How good is it with background activities?

About the only thing holding me back is that my phone runs a continuous glucose monitor, constantly connecting with a small sensor in my arm. That all quietly dying in the background would just… not be an option.

Neovim, because I wanted something that would not just disappear.

I never really got along with VSCode, opting for Atom instead. Microsoft bought GitHub, which owned Atom, and promptly discontinued it.

Nvim has such an active community (and no “owner”) that I’m certain that this won’t happen again. At the same time, the plugin system is so flexible that I’m also certain that I will never miss out on any shiny new features.

Over the years, my config has matured, and is mine. The thought of going back to an editor, any editor, less flexible in its configuration than nvim is just… an absolute “no”.

It’s a steep learning curve, but well worth it.
