Glad to hear #tldrnews come down on the right side of the #onlyfans #porn #ban issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxQoGc7s.. #backdoor #regulation is being used through #banks and #paymentprocessors to control #content - this is happening in #public and behind closed doors on websites such as #pornhub and #mainstreamedia ... This is getting towards a #socialcredit system... We need to avoid this at all costs.

She believes that images generated without consent should be banned. Bare in mind, this would also impede on #freedomofexpression - not to speak of #freedomofspeech ... I also simply do not understand how these people expect such features to actually be implemented - how the hell will you enforce this?#uk #mp #mariamiller wants to #ban the existence of #deepfake #tools https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-57.. The problem is, people could still use #photoshop , they could still find a similar looking #model - there are many things people could do. What will definitely be achieved by banning this is progress on the #technology itself, which I think will be a great loss for the #film industry, especially when actors have died for example in the middle of a large series (thinking of #fastandfurious )

Pretty cool #dun design: https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/leg.. It's a shame #lego jumped up and down on them. Besides, if your argument is that using lego makes the #weapon look like a #toy - then surely there should be a #ban on toy guns?
Great resource for setting up your own #webserver https://landchad.net/index.html Specifically interesting to me is #ufw https://landchad.net/ufw.html This is something I've not yet setup for my #server for the simple reason of not understanding it. That said I have figured out how to #ban #ip addresses for example, and have various methods for blocking attacks.
#merkel of #germany is looking to #ban the #uk from the entire of the #eu - despite the UK having one of the highest #vaccine rates in the world: https://www.lotuseaters.com/merkel-to-at.. I'm sure she will be saying the same thing after the next wave in Germany? I remember the last time Germany banned the British from the EU, it didn't end so well for the Germans. As #hitler discovered - you can't fight a war on all fronts...
