solid is a neat idea, but the implementations are … jank, to put it politely, and the overall spec is hecking complicated

i don’t think the average developer, let alone user, is going to learn RDF and its various query and other adjunct languages just to control their data

i want to see it succeed, but i simply do not have high hopes on that front

sounds like the kind of policy an AI would make 🤔

• student brought a bb gun to class and fired it at the japanese exchange teacher
• graduating year kids decided to “prank” a pregnant teacher by covering the stairs to her office in slippery material (eggs, iirc)
• another graduation “prank” was to let horses out of their field; they got onto train tracks and, well … no more graduation pranks
• history of teachers and staff sexually abusing students
• graveyard full of dead monks

wait this was a private catholic school nvm

in a week IntegerThatTracksOneThingForOnePurpose will be an object tracking 30% of the game state and mutated in 15 places without ever being renamed

I’m with HE on this one. KF is absolutely against their ToS, and if the various middle providers between HE and KF aren’t going to step in, they’re within their rights to drop that traffic.

At this level the Internet is still somewhat decentralized. KF can continue to find other hosts and ISPs that condone their horror, and said providers and peers have the right to drop them for being terrible. They could register their own ASN, broadcast routes, and other providers could still refuse to peer with them. I think this is good, actually.

but what about The Slippery Slope? next conservatives will be making ISPs take down vulnerable minorities! shouldn’t legislation be handling this?

The conservative folks are already attacking LGBTQ+ and any other minorities they want via legislation. Why would you think this is a good argument?
