I’m young, bright, and on the Right – but voting for Labour
  • Seems sensible, Labour are a center-right neoliberal capitalist party again now. Who else is a bright young rightwinger gonna vote for?

  • Boldly Be with Star Trek and Kid Cudi
  • Sounds like this Cudi fellow has written a song about star Trek. I hope it's as good as The Firm's song about Star Trek. Weird that Paramount would be so into it instead of threatening to sue.

  • UK backed away from breaking end-to-end encryption in its new Online Safety Bill. Although privacy advocates are celebrating, their victory is far from complete.
  • The law is in no way fixed and passing it will still be a terrible thing for a country that claims it wants to be a tech colossus.

    Westminster hasn't blinked, they intend to pass a law which they then intend to not prosecute. Selectively enforced laws are awful.

    This government remains awful, the bill remains awful, and the sooner all of westminster can be shut down the better. We will only be safe if we can free the country from the wankers in Westminster palace completely and entirely.

    Ban westminster, not encryption!

  • How is pirating software a thing?
  • Worth noting that paying for a license for software doesn't stop it being spying malware either. In fact the pirate versions often take out the spying and the reporting-to-homebase that proprietary software does.

    The photoshop that phones home to check a license is arguably more malicious than the pirate version that has been cracked so it doesn't do that.

  • Man in gimp suit allowed to watch Shakespeare’s Globe play with children in audience
  • Seats there are so uncomfortable you're probably better off standing. At least you can move about a bit. Important if you're in your gimp suit.

  • CHROME (google) is planing to implement DRM (kinda) into their browser
  • This code will only ever be installed on my machines by force against my will.

    No benefit to any users at all, all benefit only to Google and their Advertisers.
