what happened to the gun? We’re not armed anymore? Are we sure this is a bearless environment?

or are there just no men in this forest? Sorry i had to make the joke

Most of the time it’s illegal to feed the homeless

in what way? Always? Through tax write offs? Through begging? Charity?

call this man mr rogers and give him a TV show goddamn he seems like a good fella.

now, i not a professional here, whatever field that would be. But last time i checked, this is just something that we call “bad faith lying”

yeah, and? What are they going to do? Send the DEA after you for growing GMO titties? Gonna hit you with the ATF because you grew hormonally altered facial hair?

They’ve got shit like fentanyl to be worrying about. I think this is probably the least of concerns, especially considering this is less “drug addiction” and more “illegal prescription drugs” instead. Besides, they don’t get drug money from trans people.

It’s certainly a potential risk for procurement of the drug legally. But that’s already a problem.

im not sure to which scale this is true, but TOR specifically is highly centralized, and by design I2P is extremely decentralized, with most nodes running network routing of other nodes. Not that it’s impossible to do, it’s just a lot harder, and not nearly as valuable.

A lot of the ways in which people are got over shit like TOR is just skill issuing. Don’t run a drug empire on the darknet and you’ll probably be fine. If you do run a drug empire on the darknet, you better be damn fucking good at opsec, and pretty fucking good at laundering money. And even then you’ll probably still end up fucking it up.

there can be clear net proxies iirc, which are essentially exit nodes, but they aren’t recommended for fairly obvious reasons.

i’m convinced that this is a reason we were a massive force in the first and second world war. Without the sacrifice of our vast natural resources, i’m not convinced the world, let alone america would be where it is today.

yeah if ur just a dude pirating, it probably doesn’t matter, but if they find you’ve done a large crime, you can bet your ass that shits getting yoinked from you.

companies might, but that’s almost entirely through legal processes. ceast and desists, required reporting, etc…

Also private trackers in my country do not allow the use of VPN (why do they care IDK, they say it is to have more control on who join), so there’s little point on getting a VPN for piracy here.

it’s probably for IP banning or something. Whitelist authorization, something silly like that.

it’s all encrypted, and a darknet, so unless you’re routing through exit nodes, or you host an exit node, that information isn’t publicly accessible.

the other problem here is the “illegal contents” problem, if UPS accidentally ships a human head in the mail, is that the fault of the UPS? If someone mails a bomb to someone else, is that also the fault of UPS?

Ultimately, there is little to no reasoning as to why you should be capable of getting into trouble, unless you’re storing it, and it’s a very very strict law. But it’s a router, so it shouldn’t be storing anything.

the US has so much geopolitical reach that companies in canada or elsewhere would just hand over the question if it was high enough profile.

nothing because it’s fucking hormones. It’s not meth.

in order to prosecute, “they” have to prove you’re a pirate and show how they know

would they compromise their backDoor to go after a tiny pirate?

this information isn’t likely to be public after the fact.

thats just VC funding at it’s finest, there’s nothing of note there, they did the same with data, they’re doing the same with AI now. They’ll continue to do it into the future as well.

Google has also just been getting worse over the years. There is no reason to single out the AI feature, all of google is terrible now.

honestly, this might be true. There are definitely worse things to be made from metal lol

do micro metals even exist in substantial capacity? The problem with micro plastics is that they don’t break down and decay until like a gazillion years later, so whatever micro plastics are in your kidneys now, will continue to be in them until you die.

it’s technically like four different reasons.

The big one is weight per foot of current carrying capacity. this reduces the amount of transmission towers you need, reducing the amount of labor, and raw materials. the aluminum itself is cheaper, but that’s a secondary effect. Since it’s not as heavy per unit, you can make the runs much cheaper. And since you can make them cheaper, you can carry more current by simply making them bigger, or adding more of them.

compounding effects are something funky.

i literally cannot help myself.

yeah, this is a pretty common issue with CCA cabling, normally this is why people go for things like OFC wire instead, it also carries a little bit more current which is nice.
