Dear Bullshit Generator Who Has Replaced My Source of Truth In this World with Utter Shite (I am looking at you, Gemini)
tell me again what SSLVerifyClient on means, exactly. Motherfucker 
Age verification is the new trend to de-anonymize the web. 😡
🚨Starting Dec 10, #YouTube #Australia will ask for your age.
The Big Tech already started rolling out an AI-powered age estimation system. Adults are being marked as minors & are forced to submit IDs before regaining full access to decades-old accounts.

@Codeberg my problem ain't #scrapers - otherwise I'd #SelfHost my stuff in my own home LAN - but rather #bots flooding #Issues and #PullRequests with garbage.
The problem I dread is once people start abusing their " #AI" #bullshit and #FloodTheZoneWithShit aka. " #AIslop" for no good reason.
- Kinda like @bagder had to deal with "AI" slop #SecurityReports that didn't even try to show #ProofOfConcept or actually evidence their claims in a scientifically reproduceable fashion but merely wasted lifetime of maintainers!
And @Erpel 's original issue is just that: #spam in the #IssueTracker...

![The first paragraph of the paper in question. Of relevance is the first sentence after the first heading "1. Introduction". This sentence reads: "Certainly, here is a possible introduction for your topic: Lithiummetal batteries are promising candidates for high-energy-density rechargeable batteries due to their low electrode potentials and high theoretical capacities [1,2]."](https://fediscience.org/system/media_attachments/files/115/536/320/074/336/780/original/eac2a315564867f2.png)
