It's simple. OnlyFans solved the "I won't pay" "problem" by making transactions as easy as one-miss-click or screen press when the customer is in a psychologically vulnerable state. This is unlike purchases on Amazon which often involve the customer making a number of considerations and clicks or presses. Capturing millions of small $5-$10 payments quickly adds up to billions.

>there is no way that devices like the X230 or T480 will ever, ever, ever, be able to run without some proprietary firmware.

Wrong. T480 is the best target to have a fully libre system, more so than a T400. With the exploit the deguard utility uses it's possible to run unsigned code in ME and load unsigned microcode.


https://libreboot.org/docs/install/t480.html#absolutely-unsigned-intel-me

>One of the benefits of deguard for Intel MEv11 is that it sets the ME in such a state where you can run unsigned code in there. This is how the Intel Boot Guard was disabled, because it is the ME that enforces such restrictions; more information about deguard is available on a dedicated page.

>The deguard utility could also be used to enable the red-unlock hack, which would permit unsigned execution of new CPU microcode, though much more research is needed. Because of these two facts, this makes the T480/T480s the most freedom-feasible of all relatively modern x86 laptops.

>With deguard, you have complete control of the flash. This is unprecedented on recent Intel systems in Libreboot, so it’s certainly a very interesting port!

For a long time i have been interested in having more freedom in my tech and did a lot of research for T480 and upgrades like a better screen. But I could never go through with actually buying just because of the price compared to newer hardware. It is also very demotivating to know that just having a weak little laptop does barely nothing, considering i have a homelab and a phone. I have a hard time extending my freedom outside of software

No. I did quality auditing in a NATO defence company. It was a great way to become unpopular, bearer of bad news and all that. We had to learn about the field before we could start auditing, and Japan was still a source of knowledge. The US was less interested in quality and I was not surprised to learn from GAO that F-35 had suffered a regression in the radar software suite. And that is far closer to capital offence than a red ring. GAO has also published MTBF info that is rather disturbing. F-35 is a hangar queen that one week into WWIII would all be grounded waiting for spare parts that are no longer on the shelves.

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/12/drone-first-responder-programs-2025-review

>Drone as first responder (DFR) adoption really took off in 2025. Though the concept has been around since 2018, this year saw more normalization of the technology, its integration into more real-time crime center structures, and the implementation of automated deployment of drones.

>A DFR program features a fleet of camera-equipped drones, which can range from just a couple to dozens or more. These are deployed from a launch pad in response to 911 calls and other calls for service, sometimes operated by a drone pilot or, increasingly, autonomously directed to the call location. The appeal is the promise of increased “situational awareness” for officers headed to a call. This video offers a short explanation of DFR, and for a list of all of the cities we know use drones, including DFR programs, check out EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance.

In your view, what am I misunderstanding here? What am I failing to read correctly? Repeatedly screeching about how I can’t read isn’t an argument. Explain how the example you provided (Haigs-Simon definition of income) allows for everyone in an economy to simultaneously have a high income when they all make the same amount. Keep in mind that “high income” and highER income are not the same thing. Try to do this without deflecting. Actually explain the position.

Alright well since firefox is doubling down on implementing ai in their browser and theyre completely ignoring their user base professing how they dont want it. Which is the better fork of firefox to flee to? Im considering waterfox or librewolf since both are likely not to implement the new aislop bloat. Recently heard about this floorp browser too but its new to me and idk anything about it. Plus the name sounds gay as fuck which is the only reason im suspicious of it, the name alone already sounds like its begging to be abandoned but thats just my surface level take

The main problem is that Gecko removed the ability to be independent from Firefox. All Firefox browsers are just body mods of the Firefox chassis, which gets out of date and gets cves and not enough engine features to pass anti-bot and user agent checks.

Until all the forks unite and make a common stand alone gecko you're just Firefox in drag.

Exactly, I always thought this is a place for deeper OS talk. I can use every OS without being a Tinker Troon. But I'm tired of fags shitting on Linux or dumbfags asking the most basic shit.
