Some of them *use* robots.txt to find out what to scrape.

You can put tripwires in there and feed logs to fail2ban, for instance.

Only if your political agenda is to white-wash far-left violence.

It wasn't just extensive documentation, there was a court case that Biden administration violated First Amendment.

I've never considered myself a Luddite to date....

But why the fuck would I want anything I REMOTELY like this?

Hell, I can't stand "Edge" too begin with....I remove it from my tool bar......

I don't want any AI running amuck on its own on my computer doing anything it wants.....

Well, you are cult member, correct?

No, but it sounds like you may be......

I have 4 powerwalls and a 13KW system. We did invest in batteries anyway. The state fucked the solar investments and did not drive battery storage at all. This is not why they changed it. They did reduce the amount of solar installations above the state mandated minimum by a lot. If they produced too much during the day, they should have changed the price during the day, and guys like me (I am on NEM 2.0) would be paid less for our solar sell back and be charged more for buying it back at night. The reason they did not do that is they wanted their cake and to have it too. They wanted to charge people a lot in the day, and not have to pay solar people out anything. They did the worst of both worlds. If they wanted battery systems they could have demanded a 1:1 production and battery storage system for new installations which would have been smart in a state with rolling blackouts.

The solution was to lower the retail rate by day as compared to night. TOU billing is already a thing in California. The reason they didnâ(TM)t do that is because they wanted to eat their cake and have it too.

If i were POTUS, we would be out of Ukraine TODAY and all our foreign bases would be dismantled by the end of the month.

Idiocracy is by far not the worst outcome. A more probable outcome is demographic collapse in the West followed by technological collapse, where it is Warlords and Caliphates everywhere.

Enshittification due to fragmentation and ads combined with price increases will push people back into piracy.

It takes creative re-interpretation AND unwarranted benefit of the doubt to hear that in what he actually said. I watched the clip, it was clear to me what he meant. Did you watch him?

This is only because you haven't through this through. "detrimental to public health" is not nearly as objective as we need it to be. Instead, it is often a substitute to "advantageous to financial interests of a pharmaceutical company". For example, opioid epidemic and false claims that oxy is not addictive.

You should move away from Google services, but not because they refuse to enforce your political views, but because they agreed to enforce Democrat's political views while they were in power and now seems to doing the same for Republicans.

Kimmel claimed, without any evidence, that Charlie Kirk shooter was MAGA. This was transparent attempt to create a false narrative that the shooting was not yet another example of radical left's violence.
