The age verification thing is definitely the concerning part because it is very hand-wavy in this post.

Implement privacy-preserving and trustworthy age verification methods (for example, computer algorithms that ensure reliable age verification) to detect when a user is a minor and to restrict access to any content that is inappropriate for minors to such users while expressly prohibiting the use of a Digital ID for these purposes;

Specifically, the legislation will require operators to act in the best interests of a user whom it knows, or should reasonably know, is a minor by taking reasonable steps in the design and operation of its products and services

The legislation may not require businesses to check your ID, but it may force them to do it anyway in order to protect their own asses, maybe after lawsuits test the “reasonably know” bit.

Won’t upvote because I can’t believe this is unpopular!

Tiktok is probably used 10 times as much though (users x time on the app) and Temu isn’t spreading messages in quite the same way. Comparing apples and gerbils, whataboutism, etc.

A little early for Encino Man, but I can dig it.

Not free? Says $1 USD.

Yeah, I went by the examples in the text, not the title :)

I think that’s what OP did mean given the examples.

I can keep you busy for a while in Canada…

They talk a lot about the high number of non-certified teachers that have been hired, but how many certified teachers have applied and not gotten a full-time gig?

If it’s 10, maybe the school districts have an issue.

If it’s 1, maybe the issue is with her?

Do you actually use their “recommended” view?

Yes, it lists shows I’m currently watching and takes me directly to the next episode.

Do you primarily watch Plex live TV or their other ad supported movies?

No, never.

I would not want my settings affected by the servers I connect to. That would piss me off.

Where do you imagine setting the default?

My biggest complaint is that it defaults to “recommended” instead of “library”… it doesn’t save that view as default unless you go into settings and change it to remember changes.

That’s a pretty minor gripe considering there is a setting for it. Also, given that it’s a you-get-it-one-way-or-the-other kind of setting, they’re always going to be upsetting someone.

I think it should be lower-case “karen” and equally applied to any gender.

This is next-level stupidity. The neighbour, the cops… absolute jokes.

If this had happened in my neighbourhood as a kid, the neighbour who called the police would be the target of relentless eggings, TPings, and just general mischief for years to come. Good luck buddy.

Office Space. The Usual Suspects used to be on TV all the time back in the day and is probably a close second.

Otters, and eagles and orcas, oh my!

I think the place for comments is in the comment section. If you post an interesting article but include your own commentary which is stupid or absurd, I don’t know whether to upvote or downvote.

My opinion: Post the link, don’t editorialize the title, put an excerpt from the article if you want, but don’t put your comments in the post itself.

I’ll always remember hearing her call him a motherfucker on live tv.
