global warming has actually done it
multiple states are now uninhabitable
Keeps hitting 40 here
this is a pretty bad heat wave year
tbf, I do feel bad for road crews specifically, regardless of the time of year
being outside 8+ hours/day working on a road will never not suck
that's my carve out, other labour jobs are much less shitty
it's from the national weather service Leg

I wish it would tell you your AI assumed age
I want to know how old I am watch habit wise
I wonder what the attrition would be if they made it 100% of accounts need ID.
It's not even that I think the "average person" cares about privacy that much
But given that most people use YouTube without an account, having to create one and upload an ID and do live photo verification or w/e seems like a big hurdle
I also don't think this is the way everything is going to go for the record,
I actually feel like the tech industry is frustrated by all the "Think of the Children" laws being passed and actions like this will probably have the desired effect of getting them to stop
tech companies having to do zero is the easiest
beeing forced to do stuff that is not needed probably does annoy them
It's actually a MAJOR expense, because it's a scam
There are 3-4 ID verification companies that are blessed, and you're not *required* to use them, but if you don't you'll end up like the TEA app and all your verification data will leak
They charge crazy fees, in the ballpark of $1 per verification+2% revenue
Apparently spotify requires age verification for the british now to use
which is hilarious
do NOT let spooky access the Google age database
