  • Meanwhile, the sheep and the goats part just gets ignored

    34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

    37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

    40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

    I'm sure they'll do some backflips to say "the brothers only mean people I like", but then there's the "who is my neighbor?" part.

    29 But wanting to vindicate himself, he said to Yeshua, “Then who is my neighbor?”

    30 Yeshua replied, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. He was attacked by robbers, who stripped him and beat him. Then they left, abandoning him as half dead. 31 And by chance, a kohen was going down that road; but when he saw the man, he passed by on the opposite side. 32 Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the opposite side. 33 But a Samaritan who was traveling came upon him; and when he noticed the man, he felt compassion. 34 He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then setting him on his own animal, he brought him to a lodge for travelers and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[b] and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him. And whatever else you spend, upon my return I will repay you myself.’ 36 Which of these three seems to you a neighbor to the one attacked by robbers?”

    37 And he said, “The one who showed mercy to him.”

    Then Yeshua said to him, “Go, and you do the same.”

    But they're not sincere, so the text doesn't matter.

  • I miss my pandemic D&D1 group. It was an 18 year old that just finished high school, two people in their mid 20s in grad school, me in my mid 30s, and one person in their mid 40s. Every once in a while we'd get some interesting generation-gap moments.

    1 I don't even like D&D specifically, but that group really made it work.

  • Once again I am reminded of an old coworker. He'd talk a good game about caring about things, but when it came to the slightest inconvenience he'd dither and usually just do the basic thing. Still an avid reddit user, last I heard.

  • I don't know a lot about how fingerprinting works, but some of what i've read is pretty insidious. Some things could probably be obfuscated, but some of what the trackers use has legitimate purposes as well. Your application may serve different content based on the screen size, or fall back to an older library if such-and-such API isn't supported.

    Personally I'd rather make targeting advertising and tracking illegal, and gut the whole thing to avoid the arms race.

  • So you're going to make it illegal to call getBoundingClientRect and then pass that information to fetch through any mechanism?

  • I'm pretty sure for fonts they can tell because they have different widths, which affects page layout, which can be measured.

    There's a lot of stuff like that.

    Best would be make it illegal and give the law teeth. Solving it technically will always be an arms race.

  • I learned in my youth not to read reviews of things I like. It's unpleasant and pointless to read someone savaging your favorite albums or books.

    (More critical analysis can be fine, but regular Internet reviews are not so worthwhile)

    The only thing driving conservatives is "in-group good, out-group bad". There is no internal consistency beyond that. They're the worst sort of people.
