Happy ten-year anniversary to ironhax, one of the first widely available homebrew exploits for the Nintendo 3DS!

do AUR packages really violate it, though? they're just build scripts, and the license only prevents distributing derived works, not creating/building them entirely...

this is why i make an attempt to refer to everything under the umbrella as their specific/actual names (e.g. LLMs, diffusion models) because conflating multiple things that are only vaguely related under a single term helps nobody

it is a beautiful day in the wood. i walk through sun-dappled rows and feel a peaceful disconnect from work and the hustle and bustle of the city. suddenly i hear it: the familiar sound of birdsong, and a slow realization dawns as i hear the full tune: some bird just fucking smiledogged me

In Super Mario 64 DS, by alternating pressing Y+Up/Down/nothing/Down/nothing every 5 frames, Mario can vibrate up every slope in the game.

Petition: Repeal the Online Safety Act We want the Government to repeal the Online Safety act.

if you're a UK citizen and want the #smallweb and #indieweb to continue to thrive, please consider signing this petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

the chilling effect this act has on the web as a whole cannot be understated

bsky has grown quite large now, so they have the resources to implement this; however, most sites do not, and quite a few small sites have already either geoblocked the UK or shut down entirely in response to this act

unfortunately, geoblocking the UK on my own sites is under consideration as well

24.07.2025 00:54 — 👍 16    🔁 1    💬 1    📌 0

this also applies to any site owner outside of the UK, as long as their site is accessible inside the UK in any way; VPNs/proxies and tor/i2p won't help legally

the age verification recently added on bsky.app is a consequence of this, as bsky is a US-owned/operated service

the processes required for sites to be compliant are expensive and time-consuming, and doing so "correctly" is even more so; that's just for the documentation, with other parts costing even more

the penalties are also expensive; we're talking £18 million *minimum* if found to be violating them

the UK's online safety act enforces heavy and unrealistic requirements for anyone running a website that people can communicate on, including those run outside the UK

do you think the web was better when smaller hobbyist forums were more widespread? well, **this act effectively kills them all**
