Oof. Unfollowing now. I only followed because he saved Sega's headquarters from a missile and outran a speed skater. I had no idea he beat up kids and young adults for being outside and threw a sumo wrestler off a cliff so hard the sumo wrestler exploded.

The young people will:
- Recognize Heavy from TF2
- Recognize Max from Furaffinity
- Learn about Homestar Runner dot Com
- Wonder what's so special about this fourth guy who is just every person they've ever blocked on social media

This is what I mean when I say that billionaires are a closed, incredibly stupid social circle.

Loudly declaring 'Fuck Tim Sweeney! I'm backing Good Guy Gabe' is just falling into the trap. They're functionally identical. Newell is just better at keeping quiet about his brain-worms. Usually.

Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults.

And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

this was funnier in my head

The US cutting off oil to Cuba is truly one of the most depraved acts it is possible to imagine. Hospitals will close, food production will collapse, people will starve. It is urgent for US citizens, and every sane person, to oppose this barbarism with all their might.

What about Xwing?

a nice thing about when the internet was a bunch of little sites and servers was that it was a lot harder for governments to pressure "the chat provider everyone uses" to implement age verification.

you wanna pressure 300 separate IRC servers? good luck with that. but one company? easy

this is how i understood the internet when i hopped on it back in the early 00s and was pretty true until we consolidated onto like 4 websites in the '10s. you'd be on multiple forums and if one exploded you knew where to go meet up if it wasn't on IRC

🚨We need $894.88 by end of business day today, or they will be charging us an additional $76 fee to begin eviction. Not sure what to do at this point

If they serve us eviction papers, it will be $1,000 fee to buy out of the eviction on top of the $894.88

$53.45/$5500

$5,446.55 to go

Thank you 💛

on that note I've also been remembering how pissed off I am that weebs have eroded the term to mean 'woman with kind of short hair', I'm still not over seeing this one idol character who was in a high femme fancy dress, but she has short hair so everyone calls her a tomboy like come the fuck on lol

To repeat.

And to repeat:

The political faction saying we must all have to log legal ID before speaking or accessing speech on the Internet,

and the political faction who believe transgenderism is a dangerous mental contagion that spreads by speech about transgenderism,

are the same faction.

in light of today's "The Big Game", it is my pleasure to report that avgn's football rant is highly compatible with laura palmer's theme

The plan is to fragment our communities because they realized central hubs cause large scale information exchange and revolt.

"Teen-by-Default" is such a hilariously grim way to talk about your userbase like, usually companies aren't this up-front about how they think we're all dumb children.

An image of clouds and a rainbow superimposed on top is an image of the trans flag and a golden retriever puppy. Bridget from guilty gear is also edited in to the image. Text reads "Deposit a trans person $100 and tomorrow something incredible will happen to you. Don't miss this opportunity.".

Hey Bluesky! Do you want to help a trans woman move to a safe place so she can be with her loved ones? Boy do I have an opportunity for you!

I continue raising money to cover all the immigration expenses (and there's a lot of them)
