I thought people were saying the age verification thing was Christian conservatives. Why is California doing it?
>>
>>108278938
That age verification is for porno in places like texas. This one is for the OS and is part of CIANIGGERS trying to track everything and everyone online. It's going to be like discord where you scan in your ID to run windows, ios, android, linux. But if the companies simply say fuck you and just refuse to service california customers they will fold in a day.

If operating systems gets mandatory age verification, will software like browsers be able to interface/use the token? I'm not a supporter of this age verification bullshit, but surely this is preferable to handing over your data to a million different services.

How does Gov. Hair Gel plan to enforce this?

>>108278792
California doesn't hold jurisdiction over linux. Free open source software combined with globally collaborative internet makes it literally impossible to regulate or enforce this short of starting a thermonuclear war that brings our level of technology to what it was 100 years ago.

Television, which depends on connection to a centralized broadcasting network, is miles different from a general purpose microprocessor, and that's before I even bring up the fact that you could just have an offline computer.

They harass you for just owning a TV so the offline argument won't matter. They're just going to shoot you in the head and drag you into a mobile crematorium is all, deal with it.

Ok government niggers, want some real advice on how to do this in a realistic way that carries some chance of success?
>new federal law(s) classifying all integrated chips as controlled material requiring licenses to purchase and sets up a national registry tracking them by serial number like the firearm one you have to do when buying a gun
That's step 1. There's a lot to go after that, but let's take this 1 step at a time. If this step can't be done, the government has no path to regulating computers.
>>
>>108279382
Nice of them to support Greece, not sure they need it though
>>
>>108279472
Just need to track the CPU that's enough. Require a TPM like ship that hashes the CPU and sends it to government server.
>that carries some chance of success
If there was a chance of success for that, China would already have it.
>>
>>108279509

why did I type ship

ASIC/FPGAs :^)
>>
>>108279027
Browsers already allow pages to use Windows passkeys like encrypted keys or fingerprints to log in. Using a systemwide id-verification isn't hard if there is an API available.
>>
>>108279525
>ASIC/FPGAs :^)
@grok eli5 to him why ASIC can't replace general purpose CPUs.
>>
>>108279559
You are really naive if you think people wouldn't use them as a workaround if the government cranked up draconian laws on CPUs only. I'm trying to be charitable and put myself in the shoes of a tyrant.
>>
>>108279435
still wrong, you should read the all wikipedia page you're larping from. There's no proof that pi is normal, so no, once again, not every number sequence.
>>
>>108279472
Even if they did do that people would quickly learn how to make their own. With conductive plastics and an inkjet and a UV light you can already make 5000 transistor chips over a weekend. And I assume it would only get better from there if there was a real ban. People would probably have PDP-11 tier ICs after a few years, there will probably be some CNT-ink design that anyone can download and print a 1MHz chip.

Of course in reality if any state/country started tracking ICs like guns their economy would collapse IF people didn't just buy from other states/grey/black market.
>>
>>108279618
Ok now they've banned and criminalized plastics, printers, and UV lights. Why do you think a dying regime is just going to let you win on its way out?
>>
>>108279576
ASICs are designed for doing one task exceptionally well, not for general purpose computing.
>>
>>108279317
The digits of pi contain the ascii digits of the true story of your birth, life, and death.
>>
>>108279650
Then design an ASIC to do general purpose computing exceptionally well, retard.
>>
>>108279607
Infinitely non-repeating means it contains every possible number sequence.
>>
>>108279576
They will use the impossibility of detection or enforcement to ratchet everything up in V 2.0
>>
>>108279659
Translate "ASIC" into plain English, buttface.
>>
>>108279472
in 2025 1.05 trillion ICs were sold
CPUs to guns is 22:1
MCUs to guns is 1,750:1
ICs to guns is 52,500:1

Just DROS applied to CPUs would cost billions

>>108279668
No it does not. Non‑repetition doesn’t force completeness.
Think of an infinite, non‑repeating book.
It could still avoid ever using the word “banana.”
It could avoid every word starting with “Q.”
It could avoid entire categories of patterns.

Yes, like how a LLM does the specific application of predicting the next token, but that can be used for general purpose intelligence.

It can not. There is no intelligence in an LLM.

by my calculations in 50 years the value from JUST ad revenue ONLY for people under 18 will be 16.1 Trillion (2026 dollars) annually. Which means about ~220K per person in the age group.

Even if a fatcat skims half that's still 110K for doing fuck all, in just industry. At a certain point the benefits are greater than the harms. You'd be a fool to stand in the way.

>>
>>108279815
Not an argument.
>>
>>108279297
As valid as this sounds, the idea is that its hitting a local API for confirmation. Local. Spoof a response. As long as it's only looking for a true or false of whether or not you are over 18 and not an actual ID or identifying token you're fine. Everything at this point is framed as just providing proof you're old enough with some sort of backup to the claim. Yeah, it seems likely it can and will change, but if it doesn't then I don't see why you couldn't just spoof a response.
