reminder that Zuck tried this, the EU said "lol okay bye." and Zuck folded. Musky HAS to not be a beta like Zuck.

Pretty sure they can tell EU based companies not to advertise through them. ...not that, that seems like it will be much of an issue with how many companies have ceased advertising voluntarily.

Hopefully they block the UK too, that country would really be better off with a Twitter holiday. Although sadly they'll still have the mumsnet forums.

It was shortly after Russia started that poo poo in Ukraine that access disappeared. Their Twitter account is blocked with the reason being a legal demand from the EU.

I just need to find a few RT articles praising Musk and tweet at him that the EU won't let me read about wonderful he is, and how he should unblock the account to show those EU bureaucrats whose boss.

I’d say the line to go with that would be hard to defend is talking about how unchecked CSAM is because he fired everyone, but that might just lead to him explaining how it’s just ebophila or something

It's basically impossible to get round europe's :files: ban or the endless, endless, website consent bollocks without a VPN. UK put the laws in motion to get twitter added to the ISP block list yesterday and that list is run on ministerial discretion. One of the missteps Musk is absolutely bound to make is assuming countries within the EU can't have their own laws, and that's going to be amusing to watch play out as well.

vaginite posted:Apple's doing it right by just ignoring this bullshit. Right wing media 101 is to provoke you into a dumb argument then twist your words into their narrative, and if you're just quiet they look like flailing idiots til they move to the next outrage. Yeah I don't see why Apple has to respond. They are a many billion dollar company with real business concerns. This isn't reality TV and if anything, it would only elevate Musk for them to respond.

ElGroucho posted:My son asked me to install a mod for him, and the amount of shady rear end websites, suspect .jar files, and general difficulties has convinced me that it is a real lovely loving game The modding community for it is just loving insane. Like "a bunch of download urls that route you through ads so the modders can get pennies for your click" and "if you install this mod with this other mod, it's designed to nuke your game" insane. At least, it used to be. I imagine some of that's still around, but I haven't modded that game in ages. MikeJF posted:oh come on he didn't play, he just googled 'best elden ring builds' and used the first few results which were of course bullshit gimmick builds because that's how the internet works. No, seriously, if you saw the build, he did not do this, his build was inexplicable. If there was a gimmick, it was "I have no idea why you made any choice that you made here." The most charitable explanation is that he made the build bad on purpose for a joke.
