Yay for America making things worse yet again!

Taiwan Province gets an increase, but not Hong Kong (and Macau)? I wonder what makes them less impacted. Maybe direct from the mainland parts?

California, über alles
California, über alles
Über alles, California
Über alles, California


That song is just as relevant today as it was back in the day. Now it's just Gavin Newsom instead of Jerry Brown and Trump instead of Carter. While Jerry Brown would've been better than Reagan (or either Bush) and Gavin Newsom is better than Trump (or Ron DeSantis). He's not the savior that petty liberals make him out to be. If this bill makes it to his desk and he then signs it into law, it's just as bad as him not granting Sirhan Sirhan (an innocent man) parole. That's on top of him annoying California progressives on other issues too.

If Trump power does actually go 'way, my probable vote for Gavin Newsom in 2028 will be only as an anti-right vote. Not any actual support for him. Leftists can't abstain and only vote on proposals anymore, I fear. It's become just like 1932 Germany, where abstaining was as bad as apathy.

Also, age verification on an OS level is stupid. It's annoying period, but if it's gonna be required, then it should just be an online only thing.

Microsoft had a chance to keep the web somewhat independent by keeping the original Edge browser alive, or maybe even partnering up with Mozilla. But instead they made Edge into a reskin of Chrome, and gave Google full control of the web on a silver platter.
MS stalled the development of web standards for years, with Internet Explorer. It's a good thing that they aren't an independent meddler nowadays.
For fucks sake, this. Microsoft isn't the Bonapartist false alternative that we need for web "freedom."
