I'm going to guess it's because of some linux native things. I remember source engine games used to have issues with non-ext4 filesystems (or maybe it was just workshop stuff as I still have left 4 dead 2 on a separate disk), but I'm pretty sure that's been fixed.

Been running BTRFS and XFS partitions for years, so it's certainly a rare issue.

Ah, but raft wars

There's still valid concern about this being a foot in the door tactic. Once an OS complies with this request what will the next one be? Why should this even be allowed?

Either way though, the reddit citation is a bit unnerving.

Ah, makes sense it would be targeted twards banking and financial businesses specifically. Better pinch point than some random commerce. In that case audits would be less problematic, though I'm not sure why outsourcing this data is even an option with the current rules. It's not like a business can be completely hands off in the acquisition or processing of that info.

Out of curiosity, how?

< urls.txt while read -r url; ...

Is a syntax error.

while read -r url < urls.txt; ...

Result in an infinite loop.

I'm uninformed about this, but do KYC laws come into effect at some profit point or are they globally enforced. I don't see how any small businesses could possibly afford a 3rd party audit, or how that would even scale. I agree it's necessary, but logistically it seems problematic.

You can also avoid cat since you aren't actually concatenating files (depending on file size this can be much faster):

while read -r url; do echo "download $url"; done < urls.txt

Birds of Prey definitely started some shit online, but it was primarily the already vocal assholes of reddit and x flinging shit at each other. I heard a lot from both sides and ended up avoiding the movie completely.

Legit thought it was just going to be a wall of text editors and nothing else

Leaving out Artix? Foreshame.

Well, that's the last excuse I needed. Time to finally buy Witchfire.
