The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Loving v. Virginia struck down bans on interracial marriage and affirmed the constitutional right to marry.

The filings reveal the real-world consequences of those laws, including criminal penalties, forced separation, and loss of legal protections tied to marriage.

Those filings are now available in #SCOTUS records & briefs on the Internet Archive through a gift from the Wolf Law Library at William & Mary Law School.

When you have laws with which it is impossible to comply, you end up with selective enforcement that only punishes the opponents of people in power. Just sayin'.

Utah’s online porn age verification law now includes VPNs. Critics say it won’t work

The new law, which took effect May 6, says adult content websites must verify the age of any users physically located in Utah, regardless of whether they’re using a VPN that says they’re in another state.

Gosh, I wonder why every government and company everywhere wants to bind your personal ID to everything you do online.

Surely it's about the children.

Not coming after anyone for having opinions that deviate from what the government wants. Perhaps you think trans women are women, or a certain country shouldn't starve its helots to death, or that the government should build affordable rental units.

No, surely it's about keeping children off Facebook. Yep.

i think you're confusing ipc with something else

ipc is inter process communication, sockets, fifos, signals, rust has support for at least a subset of those

I only learned about fork and spawn once I started learning C, because I basically never encountered it in the wild with Rust.

Rust basically doesn’t do IPC at all (at least from what I can tell)

Hey, that guy who was so fucking keen to go to Epstein's island of child rape is in trouble for more nonce stuff again.

“Survivors pointed to the continuing harms being caused by the mishandling of the files. Victims’ names and private information too often entered the public domain through the release, while a broader network of powerful individuals connected to Epstein has been shielded.” https://msmagazine.com/2026/05/06/capitol-hill-round-table-epstein-survivors-refuse-to-be-ignored/

In a Small Room on Capitol Hill, Survivors of Epstein Refuse to Be Ignored - Ms. Magazine

Last week, while much of Washington’s attention was fixed on the highly choreographed visit of the king of England to the U.S. Capitol, a very different gathering was taking place just a few hallways away. Survivors of sexual abuse and trafficking, family members of Virginia Giuffre, advocates and several members of Congress packed into a small conference room in the Cannon House Office Building for a roundtable convened by Rep. Ro Khanna. The event came just days after public vigils marking the one-year anniversary of Giuffre’s death and was intentionally timed to coincide with the royal visit, drawing attention to the fact that survivors continue to feel ignored by many of the institutions and powerful figures connected to the Epstein network. The purpose of the roundtable was not symbolic alone. Survivors and advocates gathered to push for concrete political and legal action in response to what they described as decades of systemic failure surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. They called for enforcement of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the release of millions of unreleased documents connected to the case, and passage of “Virginia’s Law,” which would expand statutes of limitations for survivors pursuing civil claims related to sexual abuse and trafficking. For many in the room, this was also about correcting what they see as a dangerous imbalance in how the Epstein case has unfolded publicly: Survivors’ names and private details have repeatedly been exposed, while many powerful people connected to Epstein’s network have largely escaped scrutiny or accountability. What unfolded inside that room felt urgent precisely because survivors understood how quickly public attention moves on. Many of the women speaking had spent years navigating systems—law enforcement, courts, media and political institutions—that they believe failed to protect them or meaningfully respond after the fact. With only a few minutes each, survivors attempted to compress years of trauma, coercion and institutional indifference into testimony aimed directly at lawmakers capable of advancing reforms.

windows doesn't have fork() iirc, problems for cygwin too -- so it had to be simulated with CreateProcess and shenanigans

would be great if things used posix_spawn() more often

FFS again?? https://github.com/0xdeadbeefnetwork/Copy_Fail2-Electric_Boogaloo

If you have a modular kernel, blocking loading of modules esp4 and esp6 (IPsec 💩) in modprobe.d config should mitigate.

Given that this is the second time, a system-global seccomp filter blocking all splice-type syscalls/syscall-flags would probably be safer.
