Colorado Democratic Lawmakers Push for Age Verification at the Operating System Level

Reply in thread

I've seen it mentioned somewhere else, but while they don't mention it in the arricle. There's a chance we are possibly looking at age restriction at the isp level. This could be a way, but there will be work arounds for those tech savy enough to get around them I could forsee.

We could start our own underground p2p or LAN connection completely detached from regular isp but the logistics to that would be extremely difficult to pull off on a massive scale and more than likely would be more locally based amongst friends and neighbors. Vpns could get blocked at the isp as well, so that wouldn't be an option either to bypass it. I welcome any corrections though if I'm mistaken. Hopefully it doesn't get thay far, but a lot of these similar laws are occurring all over the world and not just in the USA.

There's usenet, freenet, hypnanet, and tor. However, the protocols could get blocked and or restricted, so not sure if there's a way around that.

Strava just killed its free API, will require a subscription if you want to build on top of it

RunnerUp is an app ive been using for a while and it does the basic gps tracking for your activities and even has an option to tell you if your pace is slower or faster than you set. You can connect it to your Strava account to upload data to if you want, but otherwise the data is on your device. I don't know about smartwatch compatibility, but I use the phone app and just put my phone in my Nathan's Belt.

People who are staying on Plex, have you tried Jellyfin? What about it do you not prefer? (real question)

Totally understandable, however basic tailscale version is free and you can just have that installed on all of the connected devices as a "reverse proxy". You then use the ip adress from the server or main computer with the files and connect to its tailscale provided ip adress after turning it on and as long as you have port 8096 open on the server computer (http:/with your adress here:8096) you can connect to the server through the jellyfin app on the device you've installed it on.

You reached the end
