Uzume got a reaction from TacoSenpai in Leaked Google Document shows the shift towards Censorship
The US is fighting a cultural civil war at present. That isn't my issue as a citizen of another country (your internal politics are your business) but this does underline the need for us to balance our own reliance/exposure to US based services and infrastructure. We don't have the same intensely binary/partisan conditions in our country so we don't need or want to ideologically weaponize our information environment.
The increasing restrictions in the US are a golden opportunity for new tech companies all over the world to step up and provide more open services. Disruptions will occur in the short term, but the needed changes will help to decentralize, diversify and internationalize the internet in the long run.
So, bring it on. Fight your battles as you see fit, nothing of value will be lost that won't be rebuilt somewhere else.

Uzume got a reaction from yuh25 in Titanfall? HTC's latest revenue results still paint a grim picture
This is no surprise to the Vive VR community, HTC have been running things into the ground and burning bridges for quite a while now. Everyone dreads having to deal with them for warranty repairs.

Uzume got a reaction from Snotrap in LOW POWER GPU HELP!
The Asus GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 is passive cooled and is powered via the PCIE slot so you don't need a 6 pin.
AUD96 from umart or AUD106 from PCCG if you want better service.

Uzume got a reaction from Teddy07 in EU Internet at Risk
Pretty soon geo-IP excluding EU traffic from your web servers is going to be easier than complying with Eu demands.

WAN show also failed to praise the Emperor of Mankind. Heresy confirmed.

Uzume got a reaction from orbitalbuzzsaw in Valve pulling a lot of Visual Novels for "Pornographic content" other games might also be removed
The problem with appeasing religious or social activists is that they will be back tomorrow with even greater demands. As funny as hating on the weebs might be to some, the hate will not end there. There has never been a period of time when gaming has not been the subject of some moral panic or another.
That special interest group was smart in targeting a despised sub culture to set a precedent in. You can count on that precedent being leveraged often in further campaigns.

Uzume got a reaction from GDRRiley in Dozen employees (so far) at Google quit in protest as company continues with "Project Maven" military project.
Guess when you encourage an activist workforce, it can turn around and bite you in ways you don't expect.

Well, this is hilarious. Google already turned itself into one of the biggest spy agencies in the world, and now the employees are upset?
