9·7 days ago‘Age verification’ is a thin pretext for the real purpose: mandating an API that allows remote access and control of the operating system.

compiles almost anywhere, probably even your toaster
FAST FAST FASTWhen sticking to the procedural method the source reads like pseudocode. This makes it useful for writing cryptography and workhorse tools that require utmost clarity.
When team Python sunset v2.7 and vaporized a decade worth of source code I abandoned Python for Pascal for all my personal fiddles. A Pascal program will compile and start while the Python interpreter is still warming up.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Food too expensive? It’s time for public grocery stores
1·7 months agoThe fallacy is failing to understand the authoritarian spirit behind purported ‘humanitarian’ causes, especially those that involve using the deadly force of the state for funding. People who worship the idol of political power are generally lacking awareness of their own desire to boss others around. Failing to learn from history is part and parcel of the matter. Giving government ubiquitous control over the food supply has one result, and history has proved it a hundred times over. Complain all you want about greed in the market–government is near infinitely greedier.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Food too expensive? It’s time for public grocery stores
11·7 months agoIt is a solution in search of a problem. And it would create far more expensive problems than it proposes to solve. The Soviets already did this kind of thing–the same Soviets who deliberately starved millions to death with manufactured food shortages.

They are explicitly not running it via 9fans bridge. Access is via NNTP only.
Thunderbird sports a very mature NNTP interface if you have a newer computer. Claws-Mail also has a very good and fast NNTP interface, even on older computers. SLRN is available for a terminal-based interface.


Rather let them hear boots.
