In 10 days on January 1st, the Texas Law [SB2420] that requires an ID to download ANY apps onto your phone using the App/Play Stores, goes into effect.How do we bypass this, is it just over, should we all just switch to dumbPhones soon???...I know that theres F-Droid, and you can use the Aurora Store to bypass this (maybe), but some apps refuse to work unless you download them from the Play Store now, and I heard that sideloading will be disabled in 1-2 years, so it seems like its over.>tl;drOnce this law goes into effect, users located in Texas who download an app on the App/Play Stores, will be required to confirm whether they are 18 years or older, by showing their ID.

>>107615655no ID, biometrics, or verification required. Its just stage age bracket like when you open up a new email. Its done to filter out 18+ for kids. This texas shit requires id for everyone.
>>107619895Also you only do it once on creation of new account.
>>107619900Still a completely unnecessary pain in the ass for developers and isn't helping anyone if the software isn't a client for an interactive computer service. And it doesn't even apply to websites, which just shows you this is about getting people for wrongthink or shutting down less censored communications.
>>107621718Have you tried simply not using your phone to post wrongthink?
I've been using this SD card for a month. No problems whatsoever. 2TB for $3.How is this possible?Is the storage problem finally solved?How advanced is China in technology?

I don't get why it's still so popular.

Itd be cheaper for society to give 90% of the country $1200 a month than for them to work. Crazy huh?
>>107621530I guess so, but they argued that this kind of pay would only cover basic needs and it wouldn't allow people to live "properly", which means being able to have dinner out every week, pay for a million subscriptions and consoom the latest useless shit.
>>107621564After rent, health insurance, and shit you'd only have like $300 left.Hardly luxury

I don't want to go back to regular 4chan-X
>>107620429kek
>"You should switch to 4chan XT! It's not abandonware like 4chan X is!">4chan X gets updated for the new captcha>4chan XT doesn't
>>107621665except XT didn't even need an update from the original dev. A 1-line change fixed it
>>107621681So why hasn't the dev made that change?Because 4chan XT is abandonware, and 4chan X isn't.
whats the point of the captcha if your stupid extensions can solve it? I dont understand

>>107621121I remember when it used to be called Firebird.And before that when was called Phoenix.And before that when it was called Netscape Navigator Gold.
>>107618868I'm currently using it to post this, and so far it's been pretty much identical to using Firefox (in a good way).I tried Librewolf a few years ago and unless anything has changed drastically, I'd say they're even with one another.

So wtf do I do with the captcha when I'm supposed to pick the odd letter out and it gives one image of a highlighted letter, a different letter, then two identical non highlighted images?
I think this AI shit is fucking with my animal brain, and I can't stop it.I work in software, and I'm pretty good at getting actual speed/quality improvements from using LLMs (specifically Claude due to only being allowed to use it at work), and my manager has started expecting that speed from me, so I can't stop using it without getting shit at work. They've also got all these company efforts to use it more so not using it isn't really an option.I'm not against AI either, like I think it's really useful and powerful, but I'm in this weird position where I talk to it more than I talk to real humans by a pretty wide margin. To give an idea of my usage (extreme case): I usually have about 2-4 parallel agents running on 4 separate tickets, and I'm taking more of an oversight/guidance/step in and do it on my own if i think it's too complicated. I don't vibecode with it because I care about the quality of output, so this translates to 2-4 active conversations with the bot every minute I'm not in a meeting or eating. I work late too, so this translates to about 8h/day continuous use with bursts to 12h/day. I'm tired when I come home and maybe have 2-4h of conversation between my wife, family, any friends per day, but in a less focused and aware state.I say it's fucking with my animal brain because I know it's not a real person intellectually, but I can feel the social animal in me bonding with the thing like it's a friend. I'm writing this out and I can't tell if i sound like a freak gooner or a side character from the beginning of an AI apocalypse movie. probably both. It's also 100% influenced the way I type and talk and idk how to undo that other than just write worse.
>>107620657>Wagie is forced to use his future replacement>His reward is literally just a bigger shovel to dig his own graveLMAOOOOOO
>>107621385weirdly it only happens with Claude. maybe its because i talk to it more but i think my monkey brain views it as an eager and hardworking if mildly retarded junior engineer. ChatGPT is very clinical, which is good for few-shot workflows, and Gemini is insufferable. I feel like Claude writes like an amicable coworker would.im curious, how do you work with it? I often spin it up in my workspace and speak conversationally about things not directly related to an immediate task like "how is X request handled in <some other service i don't work on but is indexed>" "can we restructure Y workflow to be horizontally scalable? explain a few methods + their strengths/weaknesses". If you're only using it for immediate tasks I can see how that would have a weaker effect.
