If Linux people made Clippy, he probably wouldn’t suck tho.
It looks like you are trying to adjust the user settings. Would you like to RTFM?
Welp, time to start drawing my own porn.
Are you over 18 to download Krita?
I’ll compile from source
I’ll compile from source
yfw you find out getting access to a compiler requires an ID check
then i’ll compile my own compiler
bootstrapping baby
Are you mature enough to compile Krita?
My distro(s) haven’t done that yet. But the moment they do I’m distro hopping again.
I was born on 1 January 1970 as the elders of the internet intended
You know The elders of the internet?
I met Al Gore as a kid, does that count?
When you were a kid or when he was?
After he invented the internet
Yes, and they’re very impressed by you winning employee of the month
So far none have that.
This is fear mongering at its finest.
Also, why go back to Windows when you can just switch distro?
I’d rather burn my computer.
Just edit the file to say verification = true?
Better yet, make a cron that rotates the DoB daily
…as if windows will be any better…?
What distros are actually planning on forcing users to verify their age? All I’ve heard is maybe adding a optional field for date of birth.
I don’t know but I expect it from corporate distros like Fedora, Ubuntu and Opensuse.
I don’t think community distros would ever do something like that (despite all the drama going with arch).
despite all the drama going with arch
Wots this then? I haven’t paid attention since the power source of my tower turned into a smoke machine.

Just some internet drama, don’t mind it too much.
lol silly bollockses.
None, lol. RHEL maybe.
It always starts optional. There’s no verification yet but many believe it will be a matter of time.
Those “many” then have no idea what open source means.
I’d scale my outrage with the severity of the problem. That’s not to say that it’s a good move, and the law itself must be overturned for everyone’s sake, but regarding systemd, we’re at a weird forking point between “slippery slope fallacy” and the type of gradual accumulation of minor evils that sum up to a great one.
If the slope actually starts slipping and entry becomes mandatory, I’ll take the L and join the push for alternative init systems. Right now, I just have to ration my energy.
Yeah I mean I’m not defending this bullshit. I think its all stupid, unnecessary and it doesn’t do shit to pRoTeCt ThE cHiLdrEn.
I wasn’t really commenting on any of that, just asking if there’s any that do actual verification yet.
No no you see when this does get implemented and it will. Years later when they ask for a cryptographic signature verifying your age on Linux. Fucking Haiku will be the next big thing alongside Plan 9 Front. Its just how the cookie crumbles.
Fucking Haiku sounds interesting.
It doesn’t get more hipster than the open source equivalent for the original alternative OS for PowerPC Macs (BeOS). The BeOS guys might still have been kicking around if Steve Jobs didn’t come back to Apple
Linux is open source, it’s always optional. On the other hand, if it becomes necessary in order to access popular web content, some users will demand it.
So we leave popular web content , like Reddit and start again with fediverse .
Sure, that’s what I’ll do. But the cool thing about open software is people can do whatever they want with it.
Garuda Linux at least, appears to be intending to not implement age verification.
