And yet, if you read act: there is a reasonable argument within the legislation. And the article posted mentions it too, from the architect. So you are correct in the fact the size of the site matters not. But if you are reasonably not about questionable matetial, you are likely exempt. Which is essentially what wikipedia are testing. So call it an overreach all you want; but this is yet to be proven

An interesting test case. Wikipedia contains vast amounts of information about harmful items, and children will use it. Ultimately libraries don't restrict lending and so I suspect the article here illustrates that they shall emerge victorious

Reading anything exciting? I'm pushing through The Silmarillion this summer, great in parts, poor in chapters too though

 

Slow news day yesterday! A good article and write up though

I agree. But I suspect most small forums are still exempt reading this article and the law. If you don't have potential to cause harm (no porn essentially) you don't need to do anything. But this has yet to be tested in a court to set any case law yet and so forums are understandably being very cautious

 

Dubbed the UK censorship act these days, will it survive the political backlash we are witnessing? Will big tech work to get it right rather than cut off the UK? Can the UK put a stopper back in the bottle? Is this really about social media when it is pornhub doing the blocking? No mention of the fediverse in this article either sadly, but a good read nevertheless. And he has got something right: the US megas have been extreme amplifiers. But Pornhub is Canadian

Oh-my-bash. All of the upsides. None of the down

Nice, that sounds bliss. Massages, spa, dinner booked?

Wish me luck. Travel hell the noo with weans! Stuck in an airport :(

 

Hullo folks. Fit's the beef the day?

If you don't have ipv6 internally, you probably can't access ipv6 externally. 6to4 gateways are a thing. 4to6? Not so much.

And this is why ipv6 will ultimately take another 20 years for full coverage. If it was more backwards compatible from the starting address-wise then this would all have been smoother. Should have stuck with point separators. Should have assumed zero padding for v4 style addresses rather than a prefix

 

Great find. Uist really is a magical place

Fantastic, only seen a few posted to Mastodon. Will keep an eye out in August to see if he does come to Edinburgh

 

Just so we're aware: there's no solid evidence that offshore wind affects birds. And it's 23 miles off shore.

What is fairly clear is that birds avoid the farms in essence. And we've loads of sea!

Hooray for SSE. 307 turbines of potentially 4.1GW rivals a large nuclear plant. For a fraction of the price!

Doesn't sound like a Labour government to me

 

Good for Nigg, hope they smasg their targets

I thought base of the neck. And it something that I don't want to see in the game. I agree with Schmidt saying it is contrary to player welfare. But it was also legal, a textbook clearout, and rugby has these incidents if you want a ruck. Joining a ruck is certainly where we find the greatest risk with the tackling height lowered

Where you live is a proxy of your class and status btw. And it's total bullshit. It also isn't a Scotland phenomenon. Liverpool and Washington oop norf also experience this. I'm sure it's measurable in Germany or France too. And let's not think about central NY vs outskirts New Orleans

What this is showing is how entrenched we are. It is so hard to transcend a class system. We're not far from a caste system, as Edinburgh University has presented recently

 

He really is the gift that keeps on giving.

Fuck Trump

 

Monday means Metallica! Here's a ditty from traditional Ireland being given the metal treatment! A cover of the Thin Lizzy cover but with that Metallica scooped guitars and big snare sound. The music video itself looked raucous to film and produce, a gooe house party for sure. And with Metallica in town you know it's gonna be pretty fun.

From the album Garage Inc, where Metallica played tribute to loads of their inspiration and roots of musical heritage and teenage years. The whole album itself worth a relisten, containing some fantastic tracks in hindsight

As always, comments appreciated. Has anyone else covered Whiskey in the Jar themselves as a teenage cover band? Just me?

 

A great little news story, fantastic to see a lassie frae the fort making a name for herself

 

And what did Schmidt say to the circle? “I just said that I was proud of them.”

We are all proud of the wallabies standing up yesterday. That match will go down in history for sure

 

Trump is still a cunt

 

1100 BST. It could be all over by 12:45. The Lions having looked imperious last weekend dealt with Australia fairly comfortably. This week they'll be going for the kill. Predictions more than welcome, reactions appreciated, and shitposting definitely wanted, have fun folks!
