Journal Journal: It is 2025 and Slashdot doesn't support IPv6?

I've been migrating all my stuff to IPv6 because I'm retarded and felt like (another) winter project.

So I have a Debian VM that is IPv6-only for testing things out, general browsing, etc. and see that Slashdot doesn't support IPv6? One would think a tech site would have been onboard with this years ago.

This is completely true, we have a lot of people now saying the first amendment needs modifications so they can censor people they think are wrong, including Hillary Clinton who said "we lose total control" if they don't do this. Problem is a lot of people only ever supported the first amendment because it was helpful to them at the time.

> I'm still waiting to see any evidence of such a secret order.

They're up on the AlexandreFiles along with English translations if you want to read them. I linked to an archive so that people censored can read them, but the originals are at https://x.com/AlexandreFiles though I note that X seems to require login to see anything.

> But Brazil has also criminalized reading X. If a Brazilian citizen is caught accessing X, they can be arrested or fined $9k per day, about half the median household income.

It's twice the minimum wage, per day, at R$50,000, which is a little under $9k USD. That said, they've at least backed off the fines for individuals.

The part that's really crazy is the original order was a secret order giving X just two hours to remove a list of accounts that includes a sitting Brazilian senator. So they were going to censor and make X take the blame for the STF's censorship.

That really doesn't sit well with me.

Submission + - X Releases STF's Secret Order to Censor Sitting Brazilian Senator (x.com)

An anonymous reader writes: X has just released the Alexandre Files detailing the secret orders from Alexandre de Morales on the Brazilian Supreme Tribunal Federal (STF) that lead to the recent blockage of X in Brazil and order to remove all VPN apps from the Apple and Google stores lest they be used to access X. In it, X contends that they were given a secret order giving them two hours to secretly censor a list of Brazilians, including a sitting Brazilian senator.
