The 400 if you acidentally stepped on it it'd flip back and bark your shin, you'd fall over and put your foot through it. that's why there's so few today.

Australia.

Amaysim, $10 a year.

calls 10c a min. text 5c. 1 GB of internet.

I just have it for calls coming in.

Otherwise you pay $10 a month but you get unlimited calls and text and I think a few GB of internet.

I don’t think your corn growers would be very happy with that.

Whatever, they'll still vote Republican.

Its BASIC with big boy pants on.

HERETIC ! CAST THIS FOUL USUPER FROM THE TEMPLE !

C-ing is believing.

C ++ is double plus good.

C has always been at war with Rust.

Hey fuck this shit

The problem is how do you hide what website you’re going to from the identity provider?

Not only don't you need to, you would really have to know the generator of the token because it needs to verify that you are the user that was issued the token.

You upload identity to a site and it gives you a date stamped token which confirms your age.

Then when that token is uploaded to an SM site, it verfies the identity of the giver with the site that gives the token. The identity is a hash generated by the token site and contained in both the token and a namespace at the token site, so only the token site knows the real identity. Once the token has been confirmed, the namespace is re-used.

So you can't really sell the token, because its linked back to the identity you uploaded to the token site. You need to be logged in to the token site.

Elon’s maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s as they knew the Afrikaner government was a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany.

This sentence is a mess.

The Nazi part wasn't formed until the 1920s.

South Africa was run by the British in the early 20th century. The Afrikaners were at this point, completely disenfranchised after the Boer War.

It wasn't until the 1940s under the National party (yes, there were named after the German National party !). that the Afrikaners and English began to share power.

BTW, the apartheid system was designed with the help of an Indian lawyer you may have heard of - Mahatma Ghandi.

The hemp used to make clothes (and rope) is Indian Hemp - dogbane. Its a native of North America (the "indian" refers to red indians, not the country India), unlike marijuana which is European. Its not banned anywhere.

I’m guessing that, like GDPR in the EU, it will apply to any and all social media website on the internet, but for practical reasons, can’t really be enforced outside of the legislating authorities’ jurisdiction.

The legislation specifically gives the Act extra-territorial powers to enforce the ban against foreign websites.

Reddit is specifically targetted ; it will definitely include Lemmy.

Now, if a parent helps their child do it anyway, the parent and child can’t get in trouble, but the platform can, because platforms cannot knowingly allow children to use the app, even with explicit parental consent and supervisio

Not correct. An inadverdent act is not illegal, but circumventing telecommunication controls is a criminal offence under the Telecommunications Act, with penalties up to 20 years imprisonment.

If you get your YT account banned, and that happens all the time becasue the bots are going nuts, you will lose gmail as well.

1. Uploading ID to site.

2. face scanning and continual monitoring, so if a person comes into view they must face scan. Under the law, its prohibited for children to watch prohibited sites even with their parents.

4chan is not excluded.

The Communication minister can extend the requirement to any internet site at any time without parliamentary approval.

Read it again.

What it actually says is that SM sites can collect personal ID, but must provide an alternative.

Well what are you supposed to click on, the whole traffic light or just the lights, all the blocks with a cyclist, or just the cycle, or just the blocks that are all cycle ? I've tried everything and nothing works.

The sad part is that these don’t really stop bots, captcha solver services have bot accessible APIs which can be used to solve these things for malicious actors, they pay real people pennies to solve them and sell it as a service.

Its not really intended for that, it for bots that run thousands of clicks a minute to bring the site up in a search algorithm.

Identification would need to be handled by a 3rd party to even remotely work. Then they pass on the “yes they’re over 16” tick to the social media platform, with no actual identity details.

The legislatiion specifically allows SM sites to handle ID.

I don’t see many options between asking for a birthdate and asking for ID for this problem. I don’t see any way that this can be enforced that isn’t problematic.

The senate inquiry outlined the two likely solutions :

1. Uploading ID to the website.

2. 3D face scanning. This will include continual monitoring so if another person comes into view they will have to face scan in. Remember, its prohibited for chidren to even watch prohibited content with their parents.

The law does not require users to upload government IDs as part of the verification process.

No, it merely requires the sites to provide an alternative, such as face scanning using a mobile phone unlock. Using a computer ? Then you'll have hand over your ID.

The law also explicitly gives sites the right to onsell private information if its outlined in the terms of agrrement.
