My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

Maybe you should have considered the stuff he wanted to do before convincing him to use linux. I could have told you he’d have problems with that stuff. If he said he mainly plays steam games then sure, but not literally the most finicky, cumbersome games to get going in existence. Also out of curiosity because I haven’t even thought about Roblox in like 8 years. I thought that was a browser game?

I have no words here

Does anyone over 21 actually play roblox aside from child predators? Oh, I guess that’s the point

The Register | House of "Lords" in the Anglo Entity votes to ban social media for under-16s

Im in Australia. Literally they dont. it pretty much just applies to facebook, instagram, tiktok etc, and kids have easily bypassed the half arsed efforts for age restrictions anyway. It doesn’t apply to forums or anything so overall it has been an enormous waste of time, but i guess it got the israel lobbies to stfu for a little bit. Edit: They didn’t even ban fucking 4Chan or Roblox, literally two of the worst platforms for kids to be interacting with the worst people. The whole premise of it being about protecting kids from harm was such a load of shit. It’s obvious they wanted a tiktok ban but were concerned about how blatant it would look like they were doing it for israel so they broadened it to a bunch of other social media sites that kids dont even use.

Kids are roleplaying ICE agents in Roblox

As a Robloxian ( you can :cringe: at me if you want), I’ll just say that this is the mildest news that has ever come from that gaming platform.

Australia begins enforcing world-first teen social media ban

What do you guys think about this? I think its a big positive. It’s not. But not for the reason you say. I get why they do it. Its to make people upload identification documents This is just some conspiracy theory nonsense. The law specifically says that photo ID cannot be the only way users can verify themselves. And it also says that any uploaded documents must not be used for any other purpose. No, the reason behind the law is exactly what they say it is: to protect kids. They’re just really bad at their job and don’t understand the ways this law will not accomplish that goal. I’ll repost some of my comments from elsewhere: The ultimate goal is a good one. Keep kids safe from dangerous social media algorithms. The method used to arrive at it…the Government did the wrong thing at pretty much every opportunity they possibly could. Step 1: the government should have considered regulating the actual algorithms. We know that Facebook has commissioned internal studies which told them certain features of their algorithm were harmful, and they decided to keep it that way because it increased stickiness a little bit. Regulate the use of harmful algorithms and you fix this not just for children, but for everyone Step 2: if we’ve decided age verification must be done, it should be done in a way that preserves as much privacy and exposes people to as little risk as possible. The best method would be laws around parental controls. Require operating systems to support robust parental controls, including an API that web browsers and applications can access. Require social media sites and apps do access that API. Require parents to set up their children’s devices correctly. Step 3: if we really, really do insist on doing it by requiring each and every site do its own age verification, require it be done in privacy-preserving ways. There are secure methods called “zero-knowledge proofs” that could be used, if the government supported it. Or they could mandate that age verification is done using blinded digital signatures. This way, at least when you upload your photo or ID to get your age verified, the site doesn’t actually get to know who you are, and the people doing the age verification don’t get to know which sites you’re accessing. Step 4: make it apply to actually-harmful uses of social media, not a blanket ban on literally everything. Pixelfed is not harmful in the way Instagram is. It just isn’t. It doesn’t have the same insidious algorithms. Likewise Mastodon compared to Xitter. And why does Roblox, the site that has been the subject of multiple reports into how it facilitates child abuse get a pass, while Aussie.Zone has to do some ridiculous stuff to verify people’s age? Not to mention Discord, which is clearly social media, and 4chan, which is…4chan. Step 5: consider the positive things social media can do. Especially for neurodiverse and LGBTQ+ kids, finding supportive communities can be a literal life-saver, and social media is great at that. Step 3.5: look at the UK. Their age restriction has been an absolute failure. People using footage from video games to prove they’re old enough. Other people having their documents leaked because of insecure age verification processes and companies keeping data they absolutely should not be holding on to And perhaps most importantly: Step 0: Transparent democratic processes Don’t put up legislation and pass it within 1 week. Don’t restrict public submissions to a mere 24 hours. Don’t spend just 4 hours pretending to consider those public submissions that did manage to squeeze into your tight timeframe. There is literally no excuse for a Government to ever act that fast (with possible exception for quick responses to sudden, unexpected, acute crises, which this definitely is not). Good legislation takes time. Good democratic processes require listening to and considering a broad range of opinions. Even if everything about what the legislation delivered actually ended up perfect, this would be an absolutely shameful piece of legislation for the untransparent, anti-democratic way in which it was passed into law. And that’s not to mention the fact that in some ways, not having an account is making things more dangerous. Like how porn bans in other countries have basically just amounted to PornHub bans, with people able to ignore it by going to shadier sites with far worse content on them and less content moderation. And I’ve seen a number of parents point to YouTube in particular, saying that when their kids had an account, they were able to see the kids’ watch history, and could tell the YouTube algorithm to stop recommending specific channels or types of content. Without an account, you can’t do that. And, naturally, we’re already seeing cases of kids passing despite being under-age. 11 year-olds who get told they look 18. A 13 year-old whose parent said they could pass for 10, who—just by scrunching his face up a bit—got the facial recognition to say he’s 30+. Shock-horror, facial recognition is not a reliable determiner of age. It never should have been allowed.

Looking to Switch // Which Distro?

Decided to ask here because I feel I’d be grilled on Reddit or anywhere else for this. With data leaks, security concerns, and Microsoft’s spaghetti coding I really think it’s time for me to make the switch to Linux. I will preface that I am used to SteamOS and KDE Plasma on my Steam Deck and love the functionality. It’s very intuitive for someone who isn’t prone to using a terminal, but I know a general understanding of when to use it and how to not brick my device. I’m switching due to the security concerns of Windows 11, annoyances I’m sure we’ve all had, and looking for that hands-on experience for my new personal computer. I’m going to be building a new gaming PC soon and I’m looking for a number of variables to note, warnings, and suggestions of: What distro to use that is as customizable as KDE, safe, and intuitive. Or should I stick with it? Any common issues with it or a recommendation? What games will I need to say goodbye to? I know many games using anticheat won’t always work but I understand how Proton and Wine can help for workarounds, I’ve used some to run Roblox and Rust before on the Deck. Will I need to replace parts? Maybe a stupid question, but still gotta know. Is it worth switching for the games I play or is it better to dual-boot/VM? Any other warnings that may stray me away from Linux (so that I can research and not fall into lol) Tips on applications for workarounds.
