  • On the post: NY’s ‘SAFE For Kids Act’: A Lesson in How Not to Regulate The Internet

    MindParadox ( profile ), 11 Jun, 2024 @ 06:14pm

    let's see, one the one hand, we have a guy who feels that no matter how illegal the thing, because he is/was president, he should be above the law and untouchable. on the other hand, we have a guy who didn't pardon his own son, and has very deliberately stayed out of the court case so that whatever the courts decide, that's what happens to his son. Hmm. I like the rule of law, so I'm gonna vote biden.

    stop em easy

    So, every dev8ce on a network has a unique identifier. If only there was some way to make some type of things like maybe a bouncer, say, who would check those id's for every single call. And maybe that bouncer, for lack of any better term all, pity we don't have any tech that could do this, like maybe an intelligence engine or some clockwork device, that could limit the number of calls per hour that each device can call to say, oh. I dunno, 100? Just a damn shame there's no magic spell or anything that can do this. /s

    Glad I don't watch sports

    Seriously, between the militant sports fans and the idiotic crap the broadcasters pull, so glad i have always been semi aggressively uninterested in any sports unless I'm physically playing.

    uhh, quick question: If the wombats rule the earth, do we have to build our houses out of poop cubes? :)

  • On the post: Logitech Launches An “AI” Mouse That’s Just A 2022 Mouse With A Mappable Button

    MindParadox ( profile ), 06 May, 2024 @ 10:08am

    unfortunately for those trackballs, logitech doesn't seem to consider them to be a premium product, so they use crap parts. buy some of their premium stuff and get outta the 50 dollar or below set of products they sell, and it turns into a whole different company :P

    Would someone please just dox congress so we can get on with getting some actual privacy laws in place? Include some nice juicy blackmailable stuff if you would, wanna make sure the laws are strong

    augh, no edit button

    the thing is, if this is document created in the same state or city, they know where he is, they would have just been sent over. Only his own lawyer or out of state stuff would get mailed to an inmate.

    Law mail is always delivered. most of the time, especially in something like this, it wouldn't even be mail. the process server dropped the paperwork off at the front desk of the jail and it was handed to him. I can almost guarantee the judgement was too.

  • On the post: Apple Praised For Repair Reforms Only Made Possible By New Oregon Law It Tried To Kill

    no edit button grumble

    So, got my account reactivated, but couldn't access anything with it other than logging in, trying to play a video on AppleTV+ would just revert me back to the login screen over and over. Turns out, the apple tech who reactivated my account had manually disabled access to all apple services along with adding, and I quote the senior tech who figured it out, "A very inappropriate note on your account" Holy crap, it's a cult of whiny children! and whatever you do, if you call apple support, don;t refer to them as a cult apparently LOL

    Doesn't surprise me, the cult is everywhere. Paid for a month of apple+, then immediately took my credit card info off the account, and they deactivated my apple id within two hours. took 2 days to get it reactivated. What was their excuse? "Security purposes". Bullshit, they didn't like that I was limiting what money they could get from me

  • On the post: Roku Eyes Patent That Would Inject Ads Into… Everything

    MindParadox ( profile ), 17 Apr, 2024 @ 07:30pm

    whens the last time you used a remote? 1970? they've been instantaneous for decades now. I'm 46 and i barely remember remotes using 9 volts, and they certainly weren't from 90s tvs unless it was a 3rd party universal. Even then, you'd have to specifically find one, since they almost all went to AAA and AA back in like, 85. in fact, 90% of your post sounds like Archie Bunker tried and failed to come outta his chair to complain on "Those darn interpipes the kids use!" Try some recent tech, ya know, from this century at least.

    Really hard to force ads on me if my tv never connects to the internet. Simply don't setup the wifi connection on your TV people. raspberry pis can run most of the streaming services better anyway!

    MindParadox ( profile ), 13 Apr, 2024 @ 07:28pm

    Yes, how dare we call them out for doing bad things, but not give them a parade for doing the bare minimum of their job. Do you also walk up and offer to clean their butts with your tongue?

    when did Techdirt become a government website? You really need to learn something, ANYTHING.

    Wow, you are just full of bullshit ideas aren't you? The fictitious virus you are talking about is covid I'm assuming? Yeah, you fucking moron, my kidney function went from pretty decent to stage 5 kidney disease in 7 days when i got covid. I had been stable for over a decade prior. Two of my cousins died from it, their organs just started shutting down. I know people who still have symptoms related to it from having gotten it ONCE back in 2021 So you should probably shut the fuck up about that shit cause you sound like an unhinged fucking moron. Learn something, ANYTHING that is true, get the fuck out of your parents basement, find out that grass is indeed real, and yes, the world is not flat, and stop being such a hopeless idiot.

    Fact check!@ Andrea Iravani

    top 3 causes of death in the US?: 1. Heart Disease 2. Cancer 3. Unintentional Injury Leading cause of bankruptcy in the US? 1. Job Loss For the rest of your rant about bankruptcies, at least make it believable :P Debt is the leading cause of corporate bankruptcies. Pension funds is actually investment loss/poor planning, pretty equally. As for local county state and federal governments going bankrupt, I'm going to assume that your meds need adjusted again, so we'll just wait for the men in white coats to see you.

    Hey, Andrea Iravani, instead of ranting like a total nutjob, post some evidence of ANYTHING you spew. Until then, you will at best be ignored, and at worst just be the butt of every joke imaginable, since you sound like an insane 5 year old who took drugs after not being allowed to sleep for a week, while being taught conspiracy theories after each "prayer" session with the family priest.

  • On the post: HP CEO Makes Up A Whole Lot Of Bullshit To Defend Crippling Printers That Use Cheaper Ink

    MindParadox ( profile ), 29 Jan, 2024 @ 01:50pm

    I have a Canon MF8580CDW laser printer/scanner/copier/yadda yadda blah, I got this thing in 2014, and it's still fantastic :) the previous printer i had was an HP i had it for 2 years, and there is no way i will ever buy another HP anything again. got an update one day and it wouldn't accept any ink from 3rd party sellers, which was a problem cause the HP ink was like 40 bucks a cartridge, while the 3rd party stuff was like 15 :P

    I have to say, i really wonder if they think about this stuff before they do it. all it takes is the wrong person to go "you stole my money? betcha wish your vehicle depots were fireproof now doncha!" or buildings, etc.
