Unfortunately it feels like in many places that isn’t the case, and that more and more new developments follow the US urban planning paradigm of endless suburban hell

The best situation is when you don’t need a car to simply exist. That should be the norm, not the exception.

Micro, if I can reasonably get it onto a system, it will stay there. I don’t really need anything more to tweak configs

I’m not surprised, not in the slightest

Based, but imo flawed - its setting yet another precedent that governments can block access to sites they deem “incorrect”. Take away their ability to make a profit, cut off their payment systems, but dont you dare try to regulate who is allowed on the internet

Sooner or later the whole Ai thing will die, and at that point ill take great pleasure in watching the very companies that replaced humans, desperately try to get them back.

Ps: Whoever painted this, hopefully OP (yes painted because to me this looks like a scanned A4? watercolour), your style is wonderful and the colour choices are so good.

Just gonna say that the Tor situation in such places is actually not as bad as you say. Look at what the Tor project did in Russia when it tightened internet control: it brought new tech out of beta, implemented a couple of changes, and restored connectivity to any decently techy person. The only thing that authoritarian states have shown us is that there will always be a loophole, hell, even when that loophole is considered illegal, its still there and is still used. The only way to truly control the internet is to kill it, otherwise there will always be someone smart enough and motivated enough to beat whatever restrictions are put in place.
